Bird defecates on US President Biden while delivering speech

There was a mild drama on Tuesday when a bird appeared to poop on the US President, Joe Biden.

The bird defecated on Biden’s suit in Iowa as he delivered his speech on inflation and the state of the American economy.

According to a viral video on social media, Biden was unveiling plans to trim gas prices and “putting rural America at the centre of our efforts to build a future that’s made in America” when a white substance fell on his jacket – right above his American flag pin.

“It’s about being made in America,” the US President said moments prior to the poop incident.

According to report, the incident took place inside what Biden referred to as a “giant barn”.

A White House official later reportedly clarified that it was in fact “corn” and not bird poop.

Biden didn’t seem to notice the splatter on his jacket, and continued with his speech.

He went on to authorize the release of 1 million barrels per day “for the next 6 months from our Strategic Petroleum Reserve and over 30 countries agreed to release 60 million additional barrels,” saying it is the “largest collective release in history.”

However, Twitter users still used the clip to joke about the possible bird droppings.

“Move over Pence fly. It’s Biden shoulder bird poop,” wrote one Twitter user while referring to when a fly famously lingered on former Vice President Mike Pence’s head during his debate with Kamala Harris last year.

“Biden wasn’t the only one spouting poop today,” commented another.

“Even the birds are pissed off now. What’s NEXT,” chimed a third user.
