Biden’s use of ‘end of quote’ in SCOTUS remarks was intentional, not a mistake


President Joe Biden was criticized for allegedly mistakenly reading a prompt on the teleprompter that said “end of quote” during a speech on the Supreme Court’s ruling on presidential immunity. A video of the speech showed Biden quoting dissent from Justice Sonia Sotomayor before saying “end of quote” and then continuing with his own thoughts on the ruling. The Instagram post claiming Biden made a mistake by reading the teleprompter was deemed false by fact-checkers, as it is common for Biden to say “end of quote” when citing other people or documents. The post received over 68,000 likes in two days, but it was clarified that Biden did not make an error in this instance, although he has done so in the past by reading speech cues like “pause.” The claim that Biden’s use of “end of quote” was a gaffe was debunked, as he often uses the phrase in speeches when quoting others. The post also mentioned previous instances where Biden used “end of quote” after citing different sources. Overall, the criticism of Biden reading the teleprompter prompt was found to be unfounded, as he was simply quoting Justice Sotomayor’s dissent before expressing his own opinion.
