Liberal Media Scream: Networks shamefully use Reagan to defend Biden

This week’s Liberal Media Scream features all three network Sunday public affairs shows going to bat for President Joe Biden’s betrayal of Israel for largely political reasons by suggesting he was just following a pattern set by former President Ronald Reagan.

“Historians would say, ‘Why is it OK for Reagan to do it and not President Biden?'” NBC’s Kristen Welker said in a key example of the effort.

At issue was Biden’s flip-flop to hold back weaponry Israel needs to push its effort to rid Hamas from Gaza after the terrorists shocked the world with brutal attacks on Israeli women, children, and troops last October. Biden’s move came in response to campus protests by pro-Hamas protesters.

The network talk shows noted that Reagan also played hardball with Israel but typically for more diplomatic reasons than domestic politics. What’s more, as Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) noted, nobody ever questioned whether Reagan had Israel’s back in facing down Arab enemies.

They hated Reagan. Why would they hold any similar position of Biden’s as OK?

It has always been the State Department behind the anger towards Israel. It hasn’t changed since Truman’s day.

Trump was impeached for doing this to ukraine.

The dem congressional website still talks about Trump’s overreach.

It’s very strange but this isn’t the first time I have heard praise of Reagan by the left.
