The White House is on cleanup duty after President Joe Biden delivered a gaffes-laden speech riddled with eye-popping doozies including calling insurrectionists 'irrectionists.'
White House staff made nine corrections to the speech that Biden, 81, gave before the Detroit branch of the NAACP on Sunday while receiving a lifetime achievement award.
In the official transcript of the speech, his team crossed out nine words where Biden made either factual and pronunciation errors and inserted what the president was actually supposed to say.
In one cringe-worthy moment right at the beginning of the speech, Biden told a story of when former President Barack Obama sent him to Detroit when he was serving as vice president. But Biden got the timeline wrong by about a decade declaring he was sent there during the 'pandemic.'

In reality, Biden was dispatched to Detroit to meet with members of the auto industry during the great recession.
In the transcript of his remarks, the White House crossed out pandemic and wrote in 'recession.'
Later in the speech, Biden went after his political opponent Donald Trump slamming the ex-president for the attack on the Capitol on January 6 and calling Trump unhinged.
