John Kirby Dodges Question from Former Clinton Staffer George Stephanopoulos

While there are a significant number of high-profile Democrats putting pressure on Joe Biden to give in to Hamas and pressure Israel to call a cease-fire, that is not necessarily the case with liberal-leaning mainstream media personalities.

One of the most surprising calling out Biden on this front is ABC’s George Stephanopoulos, a former Clinton administration official.

This weekend, Stephanopoulos had White House National Communications Security Advisor John Kirby on his show, and he hit Kirby pretty hard regarding Joe Biden’s perceived weakness by our enemies.

What Does That Tell You?

Kirby is the master of spin, taking no time at all to come up with a word salad to fill his time and completely avoid the questions asked of him.

He did it again this weekend when Stephanopoulos pressed him on the perception of Biden’s strength by Iran.

After a report blew up over the weekend that Biden told Israeli PM Netanyahu to take the win against Iran in that the 300-plus missiles and drones launched did virtually no damage to Israel because 99% of them were intercepted in the air.

But Stephanopoulos pressed Kirby on the fact that Joe Biden had also pleaded with Iran not to attack Israel after a missile strike was conducted against an Iranian diplomatic complex in Syria.

Here is the back-and-forth between Stephanopoulos and Kirby, and please note how Kirby never actually answers the question asked of him…

ABC: Biden called on Iran not to retaliate, but they did anyway — what does that tell you?

Donald Trump also blasted Biden after the Iranian attack was reported, blasting him on Truth Social, stating, “I want to say God Bless the people of Israel, they are under attack right now, that’s because we show great weakness.

“This would not happen, the weakness that we’ve shown is unbelievable and it would not have happened if we were in office, you know that, they know that, and everybody knows that.”

This war is an absolute disaster for Biden and if the war is still going on when election day rolls around, it could be enough to cost Biden the election, hence why Biden continues to put pressure on Netanyahu to call for a cease-fire and not make an offensive attack against Iran that could be the precursor to the start of World War III.
