January 1, Biden’s “Shameful” Fist Bump with Saudi Crown Prince Sparks Outrage
President Joe Biden was widely criticized for fist-bumping Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS), who U.S. intelligence concluded was responsible for the murder of The Washington Post columnist and U.S. resident Jamal Khashoggi.
U.S. officials released an intelligence report last year finding that MBS was responsible for Khashoggi’s death, based on his “control of decision making in the Kingdom, the direct involvement of a key adviser and members of Muhammed bin Salman’s protective detail in the operation, and the Crown Prince’s support for using violent measures to silence dissidents abroad, including Khashoggi.”
During his presidential campaign, Biden said MBS was responsible for Khashoggi’s murder and vowed to “make them pay the price and make them, in fact, the pariah that they are.” As such, the friendly greeting caught many by surprise.
The interaction quickly garnered many critics across the political spectrum, including The Washington Post CEO Fred Ryan.
“The fist bump between President Biden and Mohammed bin Salman was worse than a handshake – it was shameful. It projected a level of intimacy and comfort that delivers to MBS the unwarranted redemption he has been desperately seeking,” Ryan said in a statement.
WaPo reporter Tyler Pager noted that the “Saudi government [was] quick to post photos of the fist bump between Biden and MBS.”
Author Brahma Chellaney said: “Biden lectures the world on morality, including using ‘moral outrage’ as a weapon to rally support against Russia. But his pilgrimage to Saudi Arabia betrays his false moralizing. His trip essentially is about cozying up to the mastermind of Jamal Khashoggi’s ghastly murder.”
“A fist bump for the Saudis and the middle finger to Texas, Colorado, Alaska, North Dakota, and New Mexico, who stand ready to produce the oil Biden is begging Saudi Arabia for,” Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) said. “America LAST.”

Please do remember that the Islam citizens never use TP……..but use their hands and then its questionable if they wash their hands with soap or water…….Shaking hands might just cause an e-coli problem…….But then that would give JB a just reward…….

An 80 year old fist-bumping and hair sniffing as if he were a teeny-bopper. At least his “training collar” has been effective at stopping his on-camera kiddie-groping lately.

Biden put himself in the position of having to suck up to the Saudis to get the US more oil after stopping US oil production. The guy has no executive experience, he’s never worked a private sector job, run a company, or managed anything. The same is true for the majority of his staff. Add to that Biden has a complete lack of judgement, ethics, or morals.

If you look at the video from the other side the Saudi also had his fist prepared…looks like it was pre planned…big deal…..We have more oil and gas than any other country in the world this is bowing to the environmentalists. In 2016 one of the largest oil and gas fields was found in west Texas, we were selling it….

It’s quite obvious to me why Biden is begging foreign nations for oil.
I haven’t heard anyone from the media state this yet either.
Biden has absolutely no control over oil production in other countries, but he can cripple American oil production.
That is why he’s begging Saudi Arabia, Iran and Venezuela for oil. The progressive liberals will hang him out to dry if he dares to increase domestic oil production.
SICK OF THE BULLSHIT

There’s 5 states according to the above report that are READY to produce oil, so why are the gas prices so high, and WHY was FAT ASS CHUMP building a pipe line from Canada to Texas, why didn’t CHUMP push these states to produce (here’s a hint there all RED states and he was getting to much money from the industry) sound familiar? and if there was so much intelligence that MBS had Kashoggi killed then why didn’t CHUMP have the CIA take him out WE didn’t have a problem taken out our own president when he wouldn’t agree to that bullshit political war in Vietnam, and Brahma stop throwing shit around about MORALS there isn’t a COUNTRY in this WORLD that has any. I’ll throw this out there again ALL YOU MORONS THAT STILL HAVE YOUR HEADS UP CHUMPS ASS STOP COMMENTING ABOUT SHIT GOING ON NOW IN THE COUNTRY WE’RE STILL CLEANING WHAT CHUMP LEFT.
