President Biden held Thanksgiving calls with members of the U.S. military, according to the White House.

Biden, alongside his wife, first lady Jill Biden, spoke with units from each branch of the U.S. military stationed around the world. They thanked the armed forces and their family members for their service.

The commander in chief talked with soldiers in the Guam National Guard, members of the Marine Corps and the crew of USS Jason Dunham, an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer. He also spoke with the Air Force’s 430th Expeditionary Electronic Combat Squadron, U.S. Space Force service members in Cyprus and the Coast Guard’s crew on Charles Moulthrope, a cutter stationed in Bahrain.

US President Joe Biden plans to cancel Ukraine’s debt, Bloomberg reported on Thursday, citing a letter to Congress from the Department of State. According to the letter, forgiving $4.65 billion in debt owed by Ukraine would help Kiev prevail, which aligns with the interests of the United States and its partners in the EU, the G7+, and NATO. According to Bloomberg, the document was drafted on November 18, when the media intensively discussed Biden’s decision to allow Kiev to use ATACMS missiles for strikes inside Russia.

Previous president, including Trump and Bush, have spent time with our troops. Biden and Dr. Jill make phone calls.

The national guard who received Biden calls had probably been better to see who they voted for.

“Biden holds Thanksgiving calls with members of US military”

And did he sing “We wish you a merry Christmas” to them?

Hi, This is um the Army. We’re sorry we can’t take your call but Guam is tipping over and we had to run to the other side. Leave a message and we’ll call you back on January 21st.

Remember when Dubya showed up by surprise in Iraq, carrying a Thanksgiving turkey?

I can’t imagine that anyone with less than two stars on their shoulders would appreciate Biden interrupting their Thanksgiving.

Well now. I recall the Uke nationalists were bragging that Ukraine was going to pay us back and fiercely attacking anyone said they weren’t.

exactly - considering how much vacation Biden took, he could have visited troops overseas for Thanksgiving. just another misstep of many. he’s one lousy CIC - but then, it’s Thanksgiving and we have the wonderful reality of not having to deal with someone 10x worse, Ms Kamala.
