I don't claim this person as my president.

Denzel Washington had no interest in participating in this clown show. Still one of the greatest.

[topsecretbear]

A medal for someone that literally quit the olympics...yeah that makes perfect biden sense.

[davesmith]

You could tell this man did not like Joe Biden doing this

[Jomor]

What happened to Hunter ? He deserves a medal.

[gidzmobug]

Saw that Richard Trumka got a medal. What exactly did he do to merit that?

[cindysimpson]

NOBODY WANTS TO LISTEN TO HIM OR EVEN LOOK AT HIM. THE HORROR OF IT ALL.

[dieterandrew]

Uh, watched the whole chit-show, didn't see Denzel anywhere! Biden wanted to give the award to Alec Baldwin, Darrell Brooks, Frank James, Lori Lightfoot, and Jussie Smollette and Jerry Harris, but...

Denzel Washington? Wtf 😳 why !?
I like the man but wtf

[GoogleAccount-hzzv]

Not to mention the hundreds of thousands he let come in and who continue to come in across our wide open borders. Anyone who takes this seriously well you are beyond help

I like the Civil Stripes Fox. Legit this time. Let's take it all the way. Civil America. If you don't we will. Not a lot of time left on the scale. 🖤😎🇺🇸

Wait…so the one lady got a medal for just being first in line for a shot? That’s it? That could have been anyone. That’s not a great accomplishment. She just happened to be first in line. It had already been tested and everything. Sheesh 😒 it’s a shame that this trivial thing gets treated as equal to the accomplishments of others who actually stood for something.

FJB!!! - President Xi & President Putin & President Zelenskyy

[mailemcdevitt]

People that have done nothing for America get medal of freedom.

[Lunalas]

#17 Is there a message here somewhere? ✌️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸😁

[mrknowitall]

These people are certainly worthy of the awards they received. It's a shame though it had to come from a grossly unqualified President.

[farangutan]

Are these medals for services in the propaganda war ?

[fromouttaleftfield]

Why didn't he hand one out to Trump and Rudy Giuliani or any of the people pleading the 5th at this present moment and time? 🤔

[juanithabrennan]

I loved it! Good job Mr President and especially awarding Denzel Washington he is such a positive person and is acting work is just amendable and amazing
