Biden Says Calling a Head of State a Liar “Doesn’t Matter”

RightJournalism-

U.S. President Joe Biden on Saturday differed with Saudi Arabia in their account of discussions at a bilateral summit about the 2018 murder of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi, a major point of contention between the two countries.

  1. Joe Biden tourists Israel. Before Saudi Arabia. (Interesting name.)

    Israel killing journalists, most recently.

Just one more thing he’s fucked up in a looong-ass list of fuck ups and proof that doing something for the American people is the LAST thing this rotten SOB wants to do!

  4. The WH has already edited the transcript:.

    Actual video comment: “He basically said he was not personally responsible for it. I indicated that I thought he was.”

    Edited WH transcript: “He basically said he was not personally responsible for it. I indicated that he *probably* was.”

    Let me repeat the line, only differently this time. And clap for that, you stupid bastards.

    “Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.”
