BC,
At UN General Assembly, Biden Says Russia Can’t Take a Country’s Territory by Force
I was wondering about Brandon's words to the UN. I don't know who wrote that speech, but it's clear that whoever wrote it has VERY little self-awareness, at least when it comes to America's history of "nation-building."

After all, one of the most common criticisms of America is how hypocritical and self-righteous we are. I hear it all the time from people in Canada, France, the UK, Germany, Switzerland, Korea, China, India, the Philippines, various African nations, etc. (Not Japan, notably, since they have way too much tact.)

Also, Brandon focused more on the rules-based world order than on the horrors of PooTin's war of choice and what he hoped to accomplish. It's almost like PooTin was more guilty of breaking the rules than of the needless killing of over a hundred thousand lives.

I suspect he worded his speech that way because he knew he was talking to a bunch of bureaucrats, and he had to walk a fine line between an impassioned rebuke of PooTin's war of choice, and an upholding of the status quo which the UN would favor.

This is in stark contrast to his impassioned speech against Orange Man and the GQP, which is the only time he ever seems to show any energy.
