President Joe Biden said to have drawn a blank trying to remember homeland security secretary's name.
on August 29, 2023, claiming"Biden Forgets the Name of His Own DHS Secretary Mayorkas: 'The Guy Who Took the Job, Uh ...'"Although Biden may have a propensity for verbal hiccups, it's not clear from the clip alone whether he actually forgot Mayorkas' name.
Speaking later on, the president would talk about the threat of white supremacist terrorism. It may be this, in the context of an event that discussed the struggle and fight for civil rights, that led Biden to make a joke about the challenges Homeland Security faces, taking a pause to recognize the weight of the role.
