President reiterates call for coalition to secure 'broadest possible' support for foundational changes to High Court avoids extending White House invitation long sought by PM

US President Joe Biden raised his concerns with the judicial overhaul being advanced by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government during a "candid and constructive" phone call with the premier on Sunday, according to a senior administration official.

Biden reiterated previously voiced US calls for the Netanyahu government to secure "as broad a consensus as possible" for the fundamental changes aimed at curbing the High Court of Justice's powers, the administration official said, and also expressed support for President Isaac Herzog's efforts toward a compromise between the hardline coalition and the wide-ranging opposition....

If Pedo Joe is against it then it can’t be too bad.

My sympathies to Bibi for having to endure Babbling Biden for any length of time.

Biden is a demented simpleton. Bibi spoke to an impressionist who read a script.

#1 Netanyahu is doing exactly the right thing, his own Left and the global Left be damned

#2 If any coherent discussion on the complex topic of Israeli judicial reform actually occurred, Biden wasn’t a participant. WHO WAS REALLY ON THE CALL?

Meanwhile Biden and the Democrat party hold meetings behind
closed doors trying to figure out a way to flood our SCOTUS
with Leftist judges.

Biden and the EU are paying money to those anti reform protestors.

I don't like Biden. But so long as Israel and its lobby arm twists America for annual handouts, it can't rightly complain about an American president wanting something in return.

Not that I care either way about Israel's judicial reform.

From the Massachusetts Constitution:

“Article XXX.
In the government of this commonwealth, the legislative department shall never exercise the executive and judicial powers, or either of them: the executive shall never exercise the legislative and judicial powers, or either of them: the judicial shall never exercise the legislative and executive powers, or either of them: to the end it may be a government of laws and not of men.”

They know of FDR’s court-packing plan, and what happened to it.

Did Bibi tell Biden that the American legal system is failing its people and something had to be done to save it?

Bibi should tell him he needs to come to isreal to discuss it then make him wait in the lobby for hours before telling him he doesn’t have time for him

The leftists sure stick together.

China, Biden, the left in Israel, the media everywhere, Labor in England, Greens and others in Europe, etc.

They’re all the same. They march humanity in locked goose steps.

It’s really amazing discipline how they stick together.

Yep.

Just like they funded 8 elections in 3 years (or whatever it’s been).

Talk about election interference. This has been absurd.

It’s been non-suicidal Israelis vs suicidal Israelis, the USA state department, and the worldwide Leftist Media Complex.

Biden didn’t “voice” anything but more Harrisesque psychobabble and salad talk.

Says the guy who has put forth candidates who can’t define man and woman and who can’t define or describe basic constitutional ammendments.
