Biden is currently in Canada meeting with Trudeau to discuss climate change, Ukraine, immigration and other issues. Joe Biden *accidentally* applauded China during his address to the Canadian Parliament. Joe Biden, reading from giant teleprompter at Canadian Parliament, says, “I applaud China for stepping up… Excuse me, Canada,” Biden said. The Canadian Parliament laughed at Joe Biden.
On 3/24/2023, Biden scrambled for his pre-approved notes as soon as he sat down for a bilateral meeting with Trudeau. Trudeau kicked off the meeting by welcoming Joe Biden, “It’s so good to see you, Joe.” Biden wasn’t even paying attention to Trudeau. He was too busy rifling through his notecards because he has no idea what’s going on. Joe Biden and Justin Trudeau ignored reporters after their brief meeting about climate change.
On 3/21/2023, Fox News reporter Peter Doocy asked NSC Spox John Kirby, “The President considers Vladimir Putin to be a war criminal. I’m just wondering what it means to President Biden that Putin calls Xi Jinping a friend.
MR. KIRBY: I don’t think we’re overly exercised about that comment. I mean, these are — it wasn’t that long ago, MJ, where they were talking about a relationship without limits — right? — partnership without limits. So, we’re not going to get all hot and bothered about the use of “friends.” What we’ve seen is these are two countries that are growing closer together, that see in each other useful purposes for pushing …
: does the White House hope that the lab leak theory is not true?
Doocy: John, about the bill President Biden signed yesterday: He says he will declassify COVID origins intel except info that would harm national security. Is there a bigger national security threat than something that killed 1.1 million people —
MR. KIRBY: Yeah. Yeah, I’ve seen —
Doocy: — in this country?
MR. KIRBY: I’ve seen some of the commentary on your network about this.
The President obviously has to balance transparency with national security, Peter. Of course, he does …
Doocy: Then where is it?
MR. KIRBY: Hey, let me finish my answer.
Doocy: If we’re talking about the beginning of his term —
MR. KIRBY: Added the Department of Energy and the National Labs. Told them to keep studying it. We have kept Congress informed. Some of that has to be …
Doocy: Then does the White House hope that the lab leak theory is not true?
MR. KIRBY: We don’t have a hope one way or the other, Peter. What we want is the ground truth, wherever that takes us — wherever the science takes you, wherever the facts takes you.
On 3/22/2023, a reporter asked White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, “The Federal Reserve Chairman said today that inflation is still too high. Does the President agree?”
MS. Jean-Pierre: Look, the President has always said that he’s going to do everything that he can to make sure that we work every day to lower costs … And that’s why the Inflation Reduction Act is so important … Reporter: Given all that, the price of goods is still high.
MS. Jean-Pierre: Yeah.
Reporter: Americans are paying about $372 more a month, according to one estimate, than they were a year ago. What does the President say to Americans who — everything that you say is happening on paper — for them, paying that amount of money a month is still a lot?
MS. Jean-Pierre: And we say and we’ve been saying we understand what the American people is feeling. That’s not lost on us … And this is why we’ve made the contrast with what Republicans are trying to do. You see Republicans in the House saying that they want to lower Medicare … They want to — they want to repeal Inflation Reduction Act …
WH: we do not see a recession or a pre-recession. We see a strong economy
Reporter: On the economy, does the President still have the same level of confidence that he’s had that the U.S. will get through this banking crisis, get through this high inflation without going into a recession?
MS. Jean-Pierre: Look, the President has complete confidence in — in — in the process, in his — in his economic policy. If you think about it, when we look at — when we look at how strong the economy is, it’s because of the President’s work, what he’s been able to do … So, we do not see — because of what I just laid out, we do not see a recession or a pre-recession. We see a strong economy, and it’s because of the work that this President has done.
