Biden: Saudi minister lied about not hearing him confront MBS on Khashoggi’s killing
NY Post ^ | July 17, 2022 | Mark Moore

President Biden accused Saudi Arabia’s foreign minister of lying when he contradicted the president’s claim that had raised the killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi with Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman and bristled when asked about the fist bump with the royal.

Returning early Sunday morning to the White House after his four-day trip to Israel and Saudi Arabia, Biden was asked whether A​del al-Jubier was telling the truth when he said he didn’t hear the president bring up Khashoggi with the prince, commonly referred to as MBS.

“No,” Biden responded bluntly, according to a White House pool report.

The president, moments after arriving on Marine One, was also asked if he regretted the controversial fist bump with MBS.

“Why don’t you guys talk about something that matters? I’m happy to answer a question that matters,” he shot back.

Just like the other last loser dimocRAT president, the weakness they show to the World is astonishing as much as it is infuriating. Brandon takes it to new lows! 🤦‍♂️ 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

So Biden heads out humiliating himself by groveling and begging MBS to help him and then lies about acting the tough guy and dressing dressing MBS down for the death of some seditious conspirator. Would not be counting on on any cheap Saudi oil in the near future

Did he fist bump MBS before or after their confrontation?

Inquiring minds want to know.

That reminds of a true story. Years ago I was a passenger in a vehicle and the driver announced they hated their life and wanted to kill themselves.

I stayed calm and very politely asked them to stop the car and pull over on the side of the road—and then I got out of the car!

psst, Brandon... We’ve invented this thing called the internet... You can’t say one thing to one group of people and another thing to another and get away with it like you did earlier in your career.

Influential people love it when they're publicly called a liar by the likes of Joe Biden. Maybe Biden can get him fired

Brandon's response: "I don't know anything about computers."

Yeah I'm sure MBS will just laugh it off and forget about it.

“So he’s begging oil and starting a fight?”

He begs for oil then calls the guy names.

First he kills our supply, driving up the price.

Then he goes begging for them to supply to us at
inflated prices/profits.

They guy is a mathematical genius, I tell you. /s

That drug-addled poltroon doesn’t remember what he had for breakfast, much less any conversations he had the day before.

So this demented nitwit goes to Saudi Arabia, hat in hand, and then torpedoes the relationship afterwards by calling them liars.

What the hell did he even bother going for?

Biden doesn’t give a damn about Ashli Babbitt’s death - which is how we should feel about Khashoggi’s death.

“Why don’t you guys talk about something that matters? I’m happy to answer a question that matters”

Here we have the President of the United States, and the foreign minister of a crucial ally. They are calling each other liars. If that’s not something that matters, what would be something that would matter?

Biden—lies? No way do I believe that this tower of honesty, Joe, Biden, could tell an untruth. Must be the Arab who lies.

They lied, they cheated, they are responsible, they did this,
they caused this, unexpected...

Biden has his short list of go-to words handy at all times.

Biden is a fool but even he isn’t stupid enough to add that to negotiations for more oil. . . . On second thought he is that stupid. At least he has cowardice going for him though.

al Jubier was one of the targets of a joint Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corp- Mexican drug cartel plot to bomb a restaurant in Washington DC, which would have killed a lot of Americans, too.
