Biden warns against ‘hate’ and ‘abuse of power’ at Carter’s funeral
US President Joe Biden warns against “hate” and the “abuse of power” in a speech at Jimmy Carter’s state funeral Thursday, attended by all five living presidents including incoming leader Donald Trump.
“We have an obligation to give hate no safe harbor, and to stand up to… the greatest sin of all, the abuse of power,” Biden, who leaves the White House on January 20, says in his eulogy for former president Carter.
