Yea, let’s step back, so I can think about the lie I can give you this time.😢

[trmartin]

If Hamas were the ones blocking the cease fire he'd be announcing it with all kinds of self righteous indignation, so his not wanting to comment makes it clear it's being held up by Israel.

[robertogi]

apparently to go grab another countrys piece of land you just have to say i need it to defend myself. makes a lot of sense no ?

[jodydarby]

This guy is such a queen with a bad, smart-a$$ed attitude.

[saveriomadia]

What is in it for the American government to defend all the atrocities committed by Israel over the last 10 months? Have any of Israel’s ‘internal self-investigations’ been concluded with a determination other than not guilty?

[Teboho-RSA]

Let's hear what is going on at the liar's convention... I hopes he talks of last week's Genocide Progress Briefing

[lloydfriend]

Well we certainly know something controlled MEDIA.😊

[katiesioux]

Fifteen minutes in and it hasn't started??? Why? That's beyond annoying

[JesusBelandriaG]

Does this video say anything about Venezuela ?

[Lamin_G]

Indeed, Sec. *Anthony Blinken jumped to conclusions* about the Venezuelan election "not reflecting the will or the voice of the people" _while_ he was trying to "unearth" or seek clarity on what transpired while counting the votes. The rule of thumb is to conclude _after_ not _while_ seeking clarity.🙂

[Lamin_G]

It's not reporter *Michel's job to ask questions* that are _"helpful"_ to the State Department's spokesperson but to seek _clarity._ The State Department spokesperson's primary duty is to respond to the questions and promote transparency, not to *_critique_* questions *seeking clarity.*🙂

[wyatthunter]

Ask yourself: (when questions are asked he’s already got script ready reading off it?) 😆

[WARCRADIONETWORK]

IF your not going to comment on that, or anything, at this point don't hold these briefings, until you have some real answers!

[tithos]

Democrats voted for Biden/Harris, not Harris/??! This undermines the principles of democracy. While Trump may not be the ideal alternative, subverting the election process is simply wrong.

[WARCRADIONETWORK]

im not going to get into the underLYING conversations about the things im being questioned about, I can't say anything about the underLIEING, conversations that LIES UNDER the underlying conversations that I can't talk about!

[dorislerch]

Israel has to leave Palastine immediately because it's occupying Palestine illegally.

[Lamin_G]

_"What the United States is always going to do, we’re going to _*_partner with the government_*_ that is in the – _*_serving in the interest of the Pakistani people_*_ and the United States’ interest, "_ says Vedant. What does the U.S. do when *its interest* does _not align_ with the *interest of the people?*

[Lamin_G]

What does it say about the State Department's press secretary when he *can't tell the difference* between a *Palestinian flag* and a _Hamas flag?_ It would be like calling the U.S. flag the _"Biden flag."_ Absolutely ridiculous!

[WARCRADIONETWORK]

if hezbola didn't launch the rockets in the first place, this underLYING situation wouldn't have happened!
