Did Biden Fail To Commemorate D-Day in 2021?

In June 2021, U.S. President Joe Biden faced criticism from several observers and commentators, principally right-leaning critics, for his purported failure to acknowledge or commemorate the 77th anniversary of the D-Day landings at Normandy, France, a turning point in the Allied victory in World War II, which took place on June 6, 1944. 

Fox News, for example, reported that Biden had “snubbed” and “failed to acknowledge” the anniversary, while California gubernatorial candidate Caitlyn Jenner, whose father William served as a U.S. Army Ranger on D-Day, expressed disappointment in an interview with the network. 

Various other observers, mainly right-leaning commentators, expressed similar outrage on social media. 

Claims that Biden had failed to acknowledge or commemorate the D-Day landings in 2021 were accurate. As a result, we are issuing a rating of “True.”
