WASHINGTON, D.C. - U.S. President Joe Biden told another tale at a recent press briefing at the White House, this time, there were no dead train conductors, cannibals, children playing with his hairy legs, and Corn Pop was not present.

Biden declared for the first time that he is a son of the American Revolution.

In a recent address, President Joe Biden shared an intriguing family legend that connects him to the American Revolution. According to the President, his middle name, "Robinette," is linked to an ancestor who accompanied Lafayette to the United States and subsequently decided to stay, effectively making Biden a "son of the American Revolution."

Despite this captivating story, President Biden acknowledged that this aspect of his family history has yet to be verified.

He suggested that a genealogist might help confirm the authenticity of his ancestral claims. This personal anecdote was shared during a gathering with distinguished guests, adding a personal touch to his public engagement.

However, internet genealogists quickly took him up on his offer and debunked his claim hours later.

"A quick Google search seemed to show that his paternal ancestors came from the UK, and his maternal ancestors came from Ireland. Seems like there would’ve been earlier records for him to be a “Son of the American Revolution.," one wrote.
