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. (Snip) Asked whether the minister of state for foreign affairs, Adel al-Jubeir, was telling the truth in recounting the exchange between Biden and the crown prince, the president said "No". Jubeir said the crown prince, known as MbS, had told Biden the kingdom had acted to prevent a repeat of mistakes like Khashoggi's killing and that the United States had also made mistakes.

Comments:

Old Joe wraps up the Saudi trip by calling them Blankety-Blank Liars. They'll probably shut down all oil production ''For Unforeseen Maintenance issues'' the way things are going.

50 years at the public trough did not teach him leadership. He learned to vehemently deny responsibility and to take the payola and vote the way he was paid to vote. As obumbum said, never underestimate schmoe’s ability to fup everything he touches.

While he was over there, I hope he asked for both money and oil. We are out of both.

Compare to Trump being commanded, while seated right next to Putin to "Tell him Not to Mess with our Elections!"(something both Trump and Putin KNEW never happened) So he shrugged,smiled, turned to Putin and said "Don't mess with our elections", Putin laughed and said "OK"..and they moved on to the Real Business that Heads of States work on. Interestingly...every major meeting Trump ever had,both sides spoke of the same things after it was done, same issues, same accomplishments, mentioned in the same way to English speaking press and in the other leaders native language press. EVERY such meeting Biden or Harris has is reported like there were two meetings, the stories never match... there is a difference between "Spin" and "sophistry", in one you tell the tale in a way positive to your perspective...the other is False, the tale is not True...Fallacious Manipulation,for either pay or power...or both..

I don't know the saudi Prince well , but I know Joe Biden is a liar. I believe the Prince. I also believe the Prince laughed his butt off when joe left. The US was energy Independent under Trump and the fossil fuels are still there, all we have to do is go get them, and Joe is too stupid to do that, and he thinks we don't know the facts. If i were the Saudi I would be laughing at the Biden voters who put us in this mess

During the COVID-19 pandemic, it seemed like everyone knew a co-worker fleeing the Bay Area.

Former Democratic Labor Secretary Robert Reich believes it may be time for Democrats to kick Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., out of the party because they "already lost control over the Senate" and can’t get anything done despite appearing to have power. Reich, who served as secretary of Labor under President Clinton and was a member of President Obama’s economic transition advisory board, wrote on Substack that kicking Manchin out of the party would at least allow Democrats to admit they didn’t truly have control when Americans head off to vote in the looming midterm elections.

Case fatality rates for Marburg have varied from 24% to 88% in previous outbreaks, while Ebola case fatality rates have varied from 25% to 90%. Unlike with Ebola, there are currently no approved treatments or vaccines for Marburg, according to the WHO.

The chances that Biden could attract a primary challenger are rising amid devastating polling numbers with Democrats and particularly young voters. His loyalists have defended him against the increasingly negative headlines. They say he stepped into a mess made by former President Trump and that some of the lawmakers in Congress who were supposed to help him turn things around have been difficult and disappointing. But that willingness to prop up the sinking president has been wearing thin. Day by day, Democrats are considering a possible new scenario: challenging the sitting president for the 2024 nomination. “Unless Biden comes to

It began Saturday afternoon as a grim, if familiar, ritual. Dozens of protesters gathered outside the south Minneapolis apartment building where police fatally shot a Black man two days earlier.

Three months ago in our quarterly list of the top 10 most likely Democratic candidates for president in 2024, we changed things up. For a while, we had been ranking only the candidates not named Joe Biden. In the seemingly unlikely scenario he didn’t run again, the idea was, here’s who would be next in line. But that scenario seemed to be growing more likely, so we decided to also include Biden on the list. The reason: There might come a time when the incumbent president isn’t the most likely nominee the next time around, for whatever reason. And his

President Joe Biden finds himself far underwater with voters, facing foreign crises and increasingly scary inflation figures — all of which attract comparisons to America's 39th president, Jimmy Carter. Carter is perhaps the president most closely associated with high inflation, and thanks to a legacy that includes a stiff 1980 primary challenge and a decisive reelection loss to Ronald Reagan, he's a president to whom no White House Democrat wants to be compared. "High inflation and rising gas prices are economic numbers that make people nervous, which tends to bring down presidential approval ratings — all of that is similar," said Robert

Greenwood Police Chief Jim Ison said the suspected shooter was killed by a "good Samaritan with a handgun."

Rush Limbaugh's widow Kathryn has quietly put their palatial, Versailles-style Palm Beach mansion on the market for $175million - after snapping up the property for just $4million in the 1990s - even as experts warn it may so dated it could be just torn down by its new owners. The conservative radio legend, who died in February 2021, snapped up the 24,000-square-foot main house on Palm Beach's North Ocean Boulevard for $3.9 million in 1998, and has since bought up four neighboring properties to build a 2.7-acre estate, with an asking price of between $150 million and $175 million.
