    [Quoting Biden] “I’m the guy that shut Putin down. No one thought could happen.”

    This needs context. Mr. Biden’s campaign said he was referring to reports that Russian President Vladimir V. Putin had hoped for and failed to achieve a quick and decisive victory in Ukraine and that Russia’s military had suffered heavy losses. That, the campaign said, was possible in part because of Mr. Biden’s marshaling of allies and aid.

    Still, Mr. Putin’s war in Ukraine continues two years later. And despite heavy sanctions imposed by the United States and other Western countries, its economy continues to grow. The World Bank recently upgraded Russia from a upper-middle-income country to a high-income one.

    i can't believe this is coming from the NYT lmao

      Liberals were saying Putin had cancer because he was fatter than usual. Seems like a cancer ridden Putin is more coherent and cognizant than a Biden with a simple stutter

    [Biden] “This is a guy who told us to put bleach in our arms to deal with Covid, with a million — over a million people died. This is a guy who talks about wanting to get rid of the health care provision we put in place. This is a guy who wants to give the power back to Big Pharma to be able to charge exorbitant prices for drugs.”

    This is exaggerated. Mr. Trump’s comments, in April 2020, about the efficacy of disinfectants and light as treatments for the coronavirus sparked uproar and confusion. He did not instruct people to inject bleach, but suggested that doing so with a disinfectant was an “interesting” concept to test out.

    they're "fact checking" biden like it's 2019 and his name is bernie sanders

      It seems like the faction of the bourgeoisie controlling the media has fallen out with the part of the bourgeoisie controlling the president. Is this just over Genocide Joe's obviously cognitive decline or is there some other conflict underneath this sudden abandonment?

    For most of the interview, Biden talked about how he loves doing war and he believes his greatest achievement is expanding NATO. He concluded the interview by saying that he was only candidate who knew how to "checkmate" China. He said that he wants to take actions against China that will reshape the world for the next 30 years. It's pretty clear that he's trying to start a war with China. Western media seems to ignore that he is openly a warmonger.

      The west going to war with China will certainly reshape the world, but not in the way they think
