President Joe Biden tears up at Capitol riot anniversary before taking hits at Donald Trump

PRESIDENT Joe Biden wiped away his tears as Kamala Harris spoke about the Capitol riots before taking hits at Donald Trump.

Biden and Vice President Harris delivered remarks on Thursday at the National Statuary Hall on the one-year anniversary of the January 6 insurrection.

The president was photographed in the wings tearing up while Harris addressed the nation.

Biden then went on to take hits at former President Trump - who was making a speech in Washington DC before the mob stormed the Capitol.

"We are a great nation. We must be absolutely clear about what is true and what is a lie," Biden said.

"And here is the truth: The former President of the United States of America has created and spread a web of lies about the 2020 election.

"His bruised ego matters more to him than our ... Constitution. He refused to accept the results of the election."

Biden continued: "It's the first time in our history, a president who just lost an election tried to prevent the peaceful transfer of power.

"He's not just a former president, he's a defeated president."
