Fox News reporter Peter Doocy again exposed the failings of the Biden Administration Monday when he asked White House National Security Communications Advisor John Kirby to explain how Biden can lead effectively when he’s constantly on the beach, whether he regrets unfreezing assets for Iran, and whether he should beef up his posture to more than the word “don’t”.
“Has President Biden considered maybe beefing up the public Iran posture to be more than just one word?” Doocy asked Kirby, who knew instantly what the reporter was referring to.
“You’re referring to, ‘don’t’?” Kirby responded.
“Don’t’ and they did it anyway,” Doocy fired back, adding “So, now what?”
OOF.
DOOCY TIME: “John, has President Biden considered maybe beefing up the public Iran posture to be more than just one word?”
WH’s John Kirby: “You — you’re referring to, ‘don't’?”
Doocy: “Yeah.”
Kirby: “And so, let's —”
Doocy: “Because he said —”
Kirby: “— talk about —”… pic.twitter.com/KufejLZFnX

The most alarming thing about this is that it’s his posture on foreign policy in its entirely.

Doocy continued his line of questioning, asking “Now that we know that the Iranians do not listen to President Biden’s public warnings, is there any regret here about unfreezing billions of dollars for Iranian leaders during the President’s administration?”
Kirby incredibly responded “What unfreezing are you talking about?” as if he had no idea what Doocy was referring to, before going on to attempt to circumvent the issue with semantics.

As Charlie Kirk notes, this denial is on its face ridiculous when considering the timeline of facts:
Kirby also had no answer when Doocy asked why Biden had to return to DC from Delaware on Saturday, despite the fact that his handlers are always saying he can “work from anywhere,” as a way of justifying his constant beach vacations.
Doocy: “And, you guys often defend all the trips to Delaware by saying the President is not on vacation. He’s working. He can be the President from anywhere. So, why do you have to come back on Saturday?”

This all comes on the heels of revelations that Biden green lighted Iran’s attack and told Israel to “take the win,” of managing to shoot down the vast majority of missiles fired at them, without retaliating.
