President Biden honors Bono
In 2022, President Joe Biden honored Bono and the rest of U2 at the White House.
“From this Irish-American president in a White House designed by Irish hands, thank you for all you do and the way you lift people up,” President Biden said at the time, according to The Irish Times.
“To see each other, to see ourselves in each other, to be united in a common cause – tonight we celebrate a truly extraordinary event…a group of artists,” he continued. “At some point, it is better to remember when there is so much hate.” And a lot of division, a lot of anger in America and, quite frankly, around the world, as well [U2′s] “We are one, we are not the same, we have to carry each other,” the song says.
