World leaders wonder who is running America's foreign policy
[American Thinker] With Kamala Harris taking calls from foreign leaders now, less than one month into the Joe Biden presidency, and Joe's spokesweasel Jen Psaki saying Joe won't be taking foreign visitors, it's pretty obvious that foreign leaders are wondering: who the heck is running America? Why can't Joe come to the phone? Is the Biden "transitional" presidency really a "regency"?

The signs of it are all over. Here's a list of how bad it is, starting with America's allies:

Israel: After Israeli prime minister Binyamin Netanyahu gave Biden an early congratulatory call over the phone for his "victory," the locals are now wondering if the Biden administration is "ghosting" them. Three weeks into his term, he's called practically everyone but Israel. No calls to Bibi. Israel's foreign policy establishment is ready to call it a "full blown snub." And with open anti-Semites like Rep. Ilhan "all about the benjamins" Omar now promoted by Joe's Democrats to a top spot at the House committee on foreign affairs, there's reason to think there's something nasty going on. They are indeed wondering who's running the show.

Taiwan: Taiwan's leader, too, gave Biden an early congratulatory call and within days got a Chinese communist incursion into its airspace. Biden threw out some tough words, but apparently nothing else, and obviously, the Taiwanese are concerned, even as they cross their fingers. According to Wang Hao, a Taiwanese local commentator quoted by NPR:

#2 Well, thankfully everyone has learned to take care of themselves. The ones that can't... too bad.

What the world must really worry about now is a pentagon, an OFAC, the nuke menu, and a whole nation's resources under people with no real loyalty to any country, no identity except their political legends, and no clue what to do.

As one funny man in a nurse suit said, 'they're dogs chasing cars'. And now they've caught one.

#3 It is "Wilson 2". Biden's Wife and her mentor Hillary followed by Mz Harris with her knee pads.

#10 Gotta wonder how Macron felt about his telephone conversation with the Vice President. But then, maybe he's in on the gag.
