White House Transcript Alteration Sparks Controversy Over Biden's 'Garbage' Comment

The Biden administration faces backlash after altering a transcript of the President's remarks about Trump supporters, raising concerns over protocol and legality.

President Biden's comments referring to Trump supporters as 'garbage' were altered in an official White House transcript, changing 'supporters' to 'supporter's.'
The alteration was made by the White House press office without consulting nonpolitical federal stenographers, breaching established protocol.
Republican lawmakers have launched inquiries, questioning potential violations of the Presidential Records Act and demanding the release of accurate transcripts.
The controversy undermines the Biden administration's criticism of Trump, highlighting issues of transparency and communication management.
Vice President Kamala Harris distanced herself from Biden's remarks, emphasizing her commitment to representing all Americans regardless of political affiliation.
