WaPo Reporter Slammed for Tweet About Biden at Cemetery Where Family Members Are Buried 'As His Legi

Legislative Agenda Is Dying’

Washington Post White House reporter Annie Linskey was roundly criticized for a tweet Sunday about President Joe Biden.

The president attended mass at St. Joseph on the Brandywine in Wilmington on Sunday. The parish cemetery is where the president’s son Beau is buried, as well as Biden’s first wife Neilia and infant daughter Naomi.

Neilia and Naomi Biden were killed in a car crash in 1972. Neilia was 30 years old and Naomi was 1 year old.

As the president walked outside, Linskey posted a photo and tweeted, “Biden goes to church and walks through a graveyard in Wilmington as his legislative agenda is dying in Washington.”



Linskey was immediately lambasted for the insensitive tweet

The person who sent the insensitive tweet is a woman.
