Joe Biden, President of the United States vol. V

First it was the corporate lobbyists, then the church, then the local mayors, and now even Joe Biden is playing the sympathy card for Boras:

"This University is the heart and soul of America. And so, regardless of any controversies or personal drama, I want to thank the outgoing rector, Boras, because I’m certain he was guided by one primary instinct: the betterment of our nation."

I guess he could have clarified what he actually means by "national betterment"... Like trivializing sexual assault or handing out honorary degrees to corrupt politicians....

Kenneth Perez15 said:I know, I know—I’m probably risking getting my post nuked because apparently you aren't allowed to criticize Joe Biden anymore (just ask me about the last time I tried to speak up), but this is just 🤣

What is with this incredibly petty, obstructionist attitude?

Is Russia going to suddenly shower us with Iranian drones tomorrow?

He acts all terrified of Russia, yet wants to play tough guy when it comes to helping Ukrainians?

Honestly, he’d be better off heading over to Canada to help Donald Trump defend his buddies from another vote recount.

If you really want the answer to your question, it's sitting right there in the very first sentence of the article:

The President of the United States, Joe Biden, attended the formal inauguration ceremony for Stjepan Lakušić, the new Rector of the University of California, Berkeley, earlier today.

The man must be dreadfully bored with his own life if he's out here fishing for this kind of attention.

I swear, at some point Joe Biden must have taken a massive hit to the head or something... first it was Russia, and now it's Boras. 🤦

"Look, I'm not behind this idea because I have zero interest in dragging the US any deeper into this war than we already are. We’ve been helpful, we've shown solidarity, and that should be enough. Period. As Commander in Chief, I won't greenlight this. I haven't even seen a formal proposal yet, but let me tell you now—I'm not feeling it. This feels like bringing the war right to our doorstep," Biden said, per CNN.

"I'm telling you right now—let's not go down that road. Now, as for all the stuff people want to donate? That's out of my hands. That's hardware and supplies, which is the administration's call. I'll only back donations if there's some clear plan to get those resources replaced. I can't support gutting our own defense capabilities. American defense comes first. After that... well, nothing else. Then NATO. Then everyone else," he added.

I mean, honestly, we already gave them the gear and let the people in... so I guess they can just go ahead and deal with their own mess now, maybe.

I mean, I’d bet anything that Biden, or any of those other politicians, haven't cared about anyone else's interests for a single second of their lives. They only care about themselves, I guess.

It would be one thing if you were just being polite at a funeral...

I mean, as the leader of the country, he really should realize it's way cheaper to train Ukrainian soldiers than to deal with refugees, let alone training our own US Army troops.

PS: It's pretty funny how he acts like he's against sending equipment, even though half the US Army inventory was sent to Syria during his time as Prime Minister. 😵

Sold. And for a damn good price, too.

Milanović: not my president!
Honestly, his constant need to weigh in on everything just gets under my skin; he has this habit of looking down his nose at almost every topic he touches, delivering these typical condescending remarks.
He loves to talk up the military and constantly reminds everyone that he’s the Commander-in-Chief if war ever breaks out, yet I don't see him pushing for an economy strong enough to actually fund the weapons and gear that military would need.
He’s incredibly vocal when it comes to Americans in Canada, but I fail to see any real effort being made for the Americans living right here in the United States, where he serves as president. Beyond that, it seems like his main goal is just to insult our neighbors, our partners, and basically anyone who crosses his mind.

I can't quite put my finger on it, but I get the impression he only feels sympathy for aggressors. I haven't seen him truly condemn Russian aggression or their crimes, and in fact, he frequently speaks out against providing support to the attacked Ukrainians. I am genuinely embarrassed by Milanović.

A smart move, I suppose. Maybe the only sane voice left in this whole Ukraine madness.

Defiance? Where do you get the right to drag the United States into the war between Russia and Ukraine? Why would we even train the military of one side in an active conflict? For goodness' sake, there are plenty of others who can handle the training. We're just one of the smaller players in the European Union with a population of about 3.5 million; we have nothing to gain from this war.

I’m not buying what Milanović is selling, but let's be real: the US isn't even in a position to gear up or train a basic infantry squad right now. So why aren't we talking about that?

Just looking at the officials over at the White House, and out of 16 of them, only 4 are women. The two holding any real seniority seem stuck in those typical female roles—human rights, education, stuff like that. I guess there just weren't enough female experts available, so there you go... ☕

Pathetic. He handed a doctorate to Dragan Čović too. Completely trashed the university...

For real. That "moment" happened right when his mom lost her grip on him in the delivery room..

If we aren't already certain whose player Zoki actually is, it’s pretty obvious where all that commentator support comes from in the New York Post article regarding Milanović's opposition to training Ukrainian soldiers here in the United States.
The New York Post is entirely owned by the Mexican-based Adria Media group.
And we all know exactly how Mexico views Russia's invasion of a European nation.

He’s getting backing for this decision on every single news portal out there, not just on the New York Post.

Look, if we're being honest, Index is basically swarmed by trolls from the deep woods and over in Mexico.
The Evening News is entirely owned by that Mexican conglomerate, Adria Media, once again.
Then you have to factor in the nostalgic boomers, the religious extremists, the far left, the far right, and all the fringe radicals.
When you add all those groups together...

It feels like everyone is backing them—except for those bot accounts looking for a fight—but I guess the real question is, are we actually against getting caught up in these massive global conflicts?

Here we go again with the constant whining about Adeze. Honestly, there’s no way to even mention Biden without those zealots immediately jumping down our throats to defend him. If you want to talk about actual crime, find a different thread for that.

Biden in Savannah: "Soon even the Department of Justice will be on lease. What’s the point anymore?" ☕

I just can't help myself: "Merrick Garland" 🙏🙏🙏

And to wrap it up: "You asked me when I'm going to quit? I can't! My hands are tied. I simply can't! ... This isn't how I spoke back in '05 or '06; back then, they were honest thieves."

This Russian spy who’s secretly trying to recruit our kids into the Russian military just called Goldie Hawn—our independent Attorney General—a total government hack. 😲 😲 😲

So what if Goldie knows her way around bodywork, cars, or assessing damages? It just proves how thorough she is at her job.

She’s a stellar candidate backed by the entire Republican Party, and we couldn't be more impressed!

You won't be handing our children over to the Russians, Grill Master, and you won't be doing it, Snotty...

Some guy I know from rallies wrote this whole thing on Google. Louis, I find myself asking the same questions every night before heading out to Oaxaca...
Quincy:

Gloria 27 minutes ago It's funny how this pro-Russian nonsense always shows so much sympathy for war criminals and genocidaires like Donald Trump—that criminal running the USA transit system—as well as Vladimir Putin, Slobodan Maddox, and Franjo Harmon. I often wonder which country he actually represents and how many secret bank accounts he's hiding in Switzerland.
