- President Biden on Friday afternoon will present the Presidential Medal of Freedom to 19 people of diverse backgrounds, with actions and achievements spanning the better part of a century.
Among those receiving this highest of civilian honors are two prominent figures from the Civil Rights movement: Clarence B. Jones, a lawyer and activist who co-wrote Martin Luther King’s “I have a dream” speech, and Medgar Evers, who was murdered while working to end segregation in Mississippi.
Several honorees have known and worked with Biden. Among these are Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-S.C.), former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), former senator, secretary of State and climate envoy John Kerry and former Vice President Al Gore.
Other recipients range from actor Michelle Yeoh to astronomer Jane Rigby.
The ceremony is scheduled to begin at 4:30 p.m. EDT.

More like medal of all-time insider trading champ
You got that right .
I choked when I saw Pelosi's name.
I thought it was a joke.
Pelosi definitely did not deserve it!
It’s disgusting I can tell them where to put it
Its same as Nobel peace prize for Obama.Its pathetic.
Mind Begs the Question:
- When Governed by Politicians
- Who justify Starvation,Death Camps,Gassing/White Phosphorus,Ethnic Cleansing,etc
- Governed by Righteous or Satanic?
What a joke and waste of a majority of those medals!!
Says the nobody from a keyboard.
@nhlpa17 Oh, the irony! Lol
@@nhlpa17Hi Nancy! It was during a pandemic..... 👺
@@nhlpa17 Just stop.
Join the "Club" of liars and Thieves.
Not only can you never be arrested, but you give each other raises, healthcare, retirement and all the awards anyone could want.
These bums need to know what a real days work feels like
Pelosi needs to be in jail.
Yeah. She definitely did not deserve that medal.
Eww. Political class honoring the political class
Lol pathetic
Cryptkeeper in Chief gives Skeletor a medal for insider trading profits.
Which gos to show that presidential medals mean nothing obviously.
😡 Quit giving your friends gifts!! 😡 None of them deserve anything 🤮😡
The real medal was the millions she made from insider trading along the way....
The best part was hearing the thousands of Americans right outside chanting "F--- Joe Biden! F--- Joe Biden!!"
🤮
Bloomberg gets a medal? Says it all
Should just rename this the Medal of Friendship.
How is this any different from a King knighting his supporter or giving them titles?
Those knights earned their accolades by performing acts of heroism. These people are cowards.
@stkyfngrszmooth hmm, not so much. For example Elton John is a Knight. The type of Knight you're alluding to are chivalric/Nobel Knights and unfortunately they no longer exist. Almost all of those knighted today are performers/artists, politicians, businesses men or aristocrats.
@@fightforaglobalfirstamendm5617 And it's all for show. When thieves and liars pat each other on the back and give themselves "awards" it's downright putrid in my book.
@fightforaglobalfirstamendm5617
That's because we don't live in a constant state of war with other countries and technically the Medal of Honor is the modern US equivalent of knighing for our brave service men and women who went beyond their line of duty in order to protect and serve.
And his close allies including Xi Jinping
Got be kidding only two evil people would have done this 😢
When money is freedom, and they have more of it than most people. Makes sense.
Mike Bloomberg?? This is such a joke.
One of Joe's antigun buddies.
As meaningful as The Oscars and the Nobel Peace Prize. Yawn…
I’d be insulted to receive that medal, knowing these creatures from the swamp got the same.
These awards haven't had currency for a long time.
Well, you actually have to be president to give that out. So no one actually got one.
There are no words........
Those are akin to Gestapo medals.
ah, these are just trolls. What difference have you made to our society?
The difference? We didn't lie, steal, fund wars, or destroy the economy and future of our children. Then pat each other on the back and give out awards.
We actually work, create businesses, take care of our families and help each other.
Are you implying that Pelosi has bettered society? She has made a fortune from insider trading whilst in power. She is only concerned with lining her own pockets.
@@SlickCatWell said. The real troll is the OP.
😂😂😂 yes please free them!! 😂😂😂
Insider trading medal champ Pelosi what a joke!
Is this satire or for real
I thought it was a joke too, but unfortunately it's for real.
Imagine that! Giving honors to people who actually deserve it.
They sure like to give each other medals.
Life's been great. Reelection after reelection, speaker of the house, billions in the Caymans, and now this. Way to go Nancy. 🙄
Thank God for Congressional insider trading.
How much of this is Free Domain?
Not one of them earned this honor!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Classic as ezpected
I'm boycotting the watching of this.
I think I may throw up 🤢
wow Phil donahue looks bad
Woke military and Kerry 🤮
He needs someone to do sign language Even for the people that can hear. I don't know sign language but i'm sure I would understand it better
The sign language interpreter is going to need a Bidenese interpreter.
Congrats VP Gore. Biden is right in this case. And, President Clinton is PROUD OF YOU TOO you bet!
Yes, this makes me proud to be an American!
