President Biden watched a child’s infrastructure project crumble before his eyes Monday as he visited a New Jersey school to promote his beleaguered public works plans.
“I’m sorry, my fault. That was my fault. I made you look up,” Biden said, bending over to pick up the pieces of what had been a preschooler’s building block tower.
Biden visited the North Plainfield school with Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy, who faces an unexpectedly tight race for re-election next week against Republican candidate Jack Ciattarelli.
Although the trip was billed as a chance to promote his $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill and a larger social spending plan, it doubled as a de facto campaign swing for Murphy.

A disturbing video shows an Orthodox Jew being mocked by NYC bus passengers. Several passengers make fun of him and one then grabs his cap and throws it away. They then yell at him to “go for your kippah.”
The time and location of this hate incident is not clear.
