This dude is basically President right now

Interesting how he responded to the question “what happens to your plans when trump wins”. Blinken basically said “ I am happy to keep working under Trump”.

[blek]

Biden would be so done without this guy.

When I hear Mr. Blinken say that palestinian lives are equal to Israeli ones I'd like very much to believe him, but unfortunately all the facts contradict him. If the US administration considered Palestinians as human beings this war would have been ended long time ago. How can you explain that Blinken is still against a cease-fire despite all the daily atrocities? despite the opinion of the majority of the american people? The double standard is appauling; in few weeks the US built a coalition and started Bombing Yemen because they disrupt Maritime transport in the Red Sea but couldn't do anything for the 2 Million Gazans whose lives have been destroyed. I really appreciate all the efforts made by the US and all the world to save the Israeli hostages in Gaza, but on the other side who is doing anything to help the people of Gaza, they are also hostages of Israeli forces, and they are being bombed, starved..etc? I believe there is no other way than a cease-fire now

How quickly people forget Afghanistan withdrawal.

Blinken what defense stocks should I buy???

[anuragsinha]

Do Bill Maher and Anthony Blinken go to the same Nail Salon?

[gdmneov]

Respect people in Taiwan. Keep the status quo. Maintain peace and stability. Defend the rules-based international order

[AmericanAntiCorruptionAct]

The same politicians who vote to authorize military interventions in foreign countries and who determine the Pentagon’s annual budget are themselves profiting from the defense industry. As is often the case with American corruption, this practice is a bipartisan exercise.

I was off by 50% to the downside; As of 22 Jan 2024, the Suez Canal handles about 10% of international maritime trade and is one of the world's busiest waterways, providing a crucial link for oil, natural gas, and cargo shipping between the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean.1 According to the World Economic Forum, 12% of total global trade of all goods passes through the 190km canal.

Reagan's space lazer program is a good deterrent 😮

[NarveyTheDuckToller]

Blinken cannot say a word about peace and stability 🤫

[vladimirushakov]

I dont want to hear anything that comes out of tour dirty rotten mounth

[jilldent]

Who would want an Iranian proxy state at their border? Look what just happened. Did he really say a state which Hamas actually refused by the way.

[hwago]

Why does Andrew Sorkin always smile? I can’t trust someone that smiles constantly, no matter the subject matter.

[Ben-ridx]

the world would be peaceful if the world loved thy neighbor

[biohack]

"I don't do I do policies". lolwut? A distinction without a difference.

[vittoriosecreto]

If only Americans stayed at home peace would have a chance, at last!

[lipostube]

As a non-US person, I see two presidential options that are suboptimal
fir the US: Trump (marketing man), Biden (good, but too old). Then I see Blinken.. very profesional, sharp, experienced politician and I wonder: Why is HE not taken under consideration as a presidential candidate?!

US is CRAZY 🤷‍♂️

[Ramzi_]

We are focused on one thing! Creating conflicts=stay in power=sell it as Peaceful as possible LOL
