Joe Wins GOLD Medal in the “And-UH“ Olympics!!!..... Per Reuters: July 18th - President Joe Biden and Israeli President Isaac Herzog stressed their countries' close ties on Tuesday at a White House meeting despite U.S. tensions with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government over Jewish settlements and civil rights. Citing issues including Netanyahu's human rights record, a handful of Democratic lawmakers said they would stay away when Herzog addresses a joint meeting of Congress on Wednesday, the last day of a two-day visit. At an Oval Office meeting, Biden told Herzog that America's commitment to Israel was firm and ironclad. Biden said the two countries had been working together to bring more stability and integration to the Middle East. “A lot of hard work. We've got a lot more to do, but there's progress,“ he said. As head of state, Herzog plays a largely ceremonial role in his country's politics. He praised Biden as “a huge friend“ of Israel. “There are some enemies of ours that sometimes mistake the fact that we may have some differences as impacting our unbreakable bond,“ Herzog said. Ties have been strained over Israeli settlement expansion on the occupied West Bank as well as a judicial overhaul pursued by Netanyahu's right-wing government and assailed by anti-government protesters in Israel. The White House said Biden and Herzog had consulted on issues including “enhanced coordination“ to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon and Iran's defense partnership with Russia. It said Biden reiterated his commitment to maintaining a path toward a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, stressing the need for additional measures to improve the security and economic situation in the West Bank. Biden had held off extending the invitation out of concern over Jewish settlements and a planned overhaul that critics say would strip Israel's highest court of much of its power and that has driven protests in Israel for months, including on Tuesday. “Israeli President Isaac Herzog’s address comes on behalf of the most right wing government in Israel’s history, at a time when the government is openly promising to 'crush' Palestinian hopes of statehood — essentially putting a nail in the coffin of peace and a two-state solution,“ Omar said. Per Wikipedia: Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. was born November 20, 1942 and is an American politician who is the 46th and current president of the United States. A member of the Democratic Party, he served as the 47th vice president from 2009 to 2017 under Barack Obama and represented Delaware in the United States Senate from 1973 to 2009. Biden was born and raised in Scranton, Pennsylvania, moving with his family to New Castle County, Delaware, in 1953 when he was ten. He studied at the University of Delaware before earning his law degree from Syracuse University in 1968. He was elected to the New Castle County Council in 1970 and became the sixth-youngest senator in U.S. history after he was elected to the United States Senate from Delaware in 1972, at age 29. Biden was the chair or ranking member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee for 12 years and was influential in foreign affairs during Obama's presidency. He also chaired the Senate Judiciary Committee from 1987 to 1995, dealing with drug policy, crime prevention, and civil liberties issues; and oversaw six U.S. Supreme Court confirmation hearings, including the contentious hearings for Robert Bork and Clarence Thomas. He ran unsuccessfully for the Democratic presidential nomination in 1988 and 2008. Biden was reelected to the Senate six times and was the fourth-most senior sitting senator at the time when he became Obama's vice president after they won the 2008 presidential election, defeating John McCain and his running mate Sarah Palin. Obama and Biden were reelected in 2012, defeating the Republican ticket of Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan.
