    Biden said at the Naval Academy’s graduation ceremony last May — and again at the Air Force Academy this June — that he was appointed to the prestigious Annapolis military college by the late Sen. J. Caleb Boggs (R-Del.). A search of Boggs’ archives failed to turn up evidence of the appointment.

    Last month, Biden claimed while discussing wildfire devastation in Hawaii that his Delaware house “almost collapsed” from a small kitchen fire nearly two decades ago — after telling survivors one week prior that firefighters “ran into flames” to rescue first lady Jill Biden. At a fire prevention summit in October, he claimed “we almost lost a couple firefighters” — prompting the local fire department to release a statement calling the blaze “insignificant.”

    On Monday, the president said that he was at Ground Zero in Manhattan one day after the collapse of the Twin Towers in 2001 — and that he personally watched a fireball as the Pentagon was struck by a hijacked jet on 9/11. Both claims, uttered on the 22nd anniversary, conflicted with descriptions from his autobiography and the White House later said he was thinking of a trip to New York nine days after the attacks.

    Polls show broad public concern about Biden’s mental acuity heading into next year’s election. A Wall Street Journal poll released last week found that 73% of voters believe Biden is too old for office, versus 47% who said so of 77-year-old Republican frontrunner Donald Trump.

    But Biden also has a decades-long record of factual embellishments and biographical falsification. His first presidential campaign ended in 1987 due to a scandal involving plagiarism of speeches and a law school paper and exaggerations about his academic achievemen
