Biden says US political leaders should be 'calling out' anti-Semitism
"I just want to make a few things clear: The Holocaust happened. Hitler was a demonic figure," Biden tweeted. "And instead of giving it a platform, our political leaders should be calling out and rejecting antisemitism wherever it hides."

President Joe Biden on Friday urged US political leaders to speak out clearly against anti-Semitism, days after his predecessor Donald Trump caused outrage by hosting a well-known Holocaust denier at his Florida resort.
"I just want to make a few things clear: The Holocaust happened. Hitler was a demonic figure," Biden tweeted. "And instead of giving it a platform, our political leaders should be calling out and rejecting antisemitism wherever it hides."
"Silence is complicity," Biden added.
