WASHINGTON — President Biden, who as a candidate vowed to make Saudi Arabia a “pariah” in response to the assassination of a prominent dissident, has decided to travel to Riyadh this month to rebuild relations with the oil-rich kingdom at a time when he is seeking to lower gas prices at home and isolate Russia abroad.

Biden is going to be crawling on his hands and knees and will kiss their ring. The he will do the same no doubt with Madduro.

Biden has taken our position as a world leader and decimated it and now we are a beggar nation, pleading for baby formula, oil, and wheat.

Begging Brandon. I wonder if the King will give Brandon pudding for desert. That’s all he really cares about. Everything else Brandon is told to do by his handlers is done to convince moronic Democrat voters that he cares.

I wonder if they'll even meet him at the plane. They are going to make Brandon pay for his false bravado big time. Which means, we pay.

He could have done that by having them come here. Instead the mountain is coming crawling to Mohammad.

They wouldn't come here, it's much more prestigious to have a President go there. They told him to show up in person if he wanted to talk oil, and recognizing the energy crisis we're are about to experience, he quickly agreed.

Hopefully he has a good launderer. His his pants are going to be shot, knee stains, poop stains, marks from being spanked.

And Chinese pharmaceuticals and other necessary products they manufacture. And chips.

Biden alienated the Kingdom by reviving the JCPOA. Iran is Saudi Arabia’s mortal enemy. Biden better be ready to back away from the deal. Saudis have Biden over a barrel, an oil barrel.

Indeed, you can bet they will have some significant demands, and Biden has no choice.

Wow. Biden just stated the 2nd amendment, like all other rights, is not absolute.

Biden will ask the Saudis to increase production. Saudis are the only OPEC+ country that has the ability to increase production given its huge reserves. They have done it for us in the past. But MBS will need concessions from Biden. Should be an interesting visit.

Many of which will not be advertised as they will upset his progressive wing.
