As far as I can read from the report, one staffer quit as a result of a misleading report written by... not the white house, and the others lamented that Netanyahu was deliberately obstructing negotiations. To say that that equates to lying about working towards a ceasefire seems to be misleading at the least.
The article links to a video where Harris states: "the president and I are working around the clock every day to get that ceasefire deal done." here.
The person in charge of the state department is the Secretary of State (Antony Blinken). Which is a stretch to say that it comes directly from Biden or the White House since it is written by a branch department. It comes from the state department. The memo declaring that they had to publish that information came from Biden, but again the response that you're livid at was written by the state department. Notice how the only people who were targeted in the article were people who didn't publish that bullshit? Whoever wrote the report is clearly disingenuous but to directly tie that to their superiors is not how that works. You need actual evidence and so far all I have seen is hearsay.
The video of Harris saying that her and Biden are doing all they can is also probably overplaying it a bit, but again the only evidence in that article is that other staffers were complaining about Netanyahu being the problem.
How does that translate into "Biden lied about doing everything and oh yeah let's throw a hit piece on AOC" and finish the article off on that note with also no evidence beyond hearsay?
I see a shit ton of .ml accounts signal boosting this article, partying like its October 2024. I don't buy the legitimacy of "altmedia.house" either. None of it passes the sniff test, to say nothing of the current state of the world.
Yeah I've been generally assuming this is outside interference from conservatives to fuck with democrat morale. It's not coherent or logically laid out and has no evidence that actually supports the conclusion....
Sounds really conservative to me after that.
Yeah I was gonna say, blaming Biden for anything is exactly what Trump is doing right now. lol
Its funny that we're not allowed to call out Biden for his bullshit before the election, and now we still can't call out Biden for his bullshit after the election even after their bullshit contributed to the Democrat's loss. When are you guys ever gonna learn if any criticism is hand waved away as being a Republican misinformation effort. Do you want to continue losing the election?
Here's the neat part, we're not allowed any criticism of their favorite team.
Any criticism, even if it would help them in the elections they swear will stop fascism for real this time, is actually bad for their moral. So why allow criticism when it hurts the idea of "They can't be blamed, the voters are the problem!"
You were absolutely allowed to call him out during the election and after. Just use actual evidence that supports the claim you're making. Not "one former ambassador said "they never said "stop, right now"" which means they lied about trying at all". There were clearly attempts to stop the genocide, though they likely didn't go as far as they should have.
Fuck Biden.
