The White House suggested President Joe Biden misspoke when he implied that cannibals feasted on his uncle after a plane crash during World War II.

Twice this week, President Biden told a story of his uncle, 2nd Lt. Ambrose Finnegan, who served in the U.S. Army Air Forces when his plane crashed in Papua New Guinea (PNG).
