Australian Journalist: Biden Seems ‘Determined To Weaken America’s Standing, Her Military, And Emboldening’ Enemies

Sky News Australian host James Morrow criticized recent moves President Joe Biden has made that, at least on the surface, appear to be weakening America’s military might while America’s and Australia’s enemies are growing increasingly aggressive.

Morrow made the remarks Saturday on Anzac Day, a day where Australians commemorate those in their military who died for their freedoms.

“Today is Anzac Day, when we commemorate all those who made the ultimate sacrifice fighting for our freedoms and fighting very often side by side with soldiers from the United States, which is why today, it is so depressing to look at what is happening to the U.S. under Joe Biden, who seems, for whatever reason, determined to weaken America’s standing, her military, and emboldening her and our enemies, making a mockery of a century’s worth of shared sacrifice,” Morrow said. “Now, we’ve all seen the silly side of Joe Biden’s green eco warrior posturing, which this week included the bizarre spectacle of the U.S. president wearing his face mask on a zoom call to discuss climate talks as bemused world leaders looked on.”

Morrow slammed the Biden administration’s push to go green and woke while China continues its meteoric rise.

“I gotta say, Putin an Xi must be quaking in their boots…or more likely laughing,” Morrow said. “Because, ever since Biden took office, both men have been seeking to cause instability and probe Biden and his weaknesses, which go a lot further than just being unable to string together a coherent sentence. China is looking increasingly muscular when it comes to Taiwan while Russia is conducting an unprecedented military buildup on the borders of Ukraine, actions which, whether they lead to actual conflict or not, have already raised the prospect of how Biden will or will not respond.”

“Now, Donald Trump, for all his flaws, understood that thugs like Xi and Putin spoke in the language of force and that, as bullies, they would be goaded by weakness,” he concluded. “As Trump’s former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo tweeted the other day, quote, ‘Strength deters bad guys, weakness begets war.’ As we honor the sacrifices of the Anzac Day fallen, let us hope that Biden learns this lesson to avoid more such sacrifices in the future.”

JAMES MORROW, SKY NEWS HOST: Today is Anzac Day, when we commemorate all those who made the ultimate sacrifice fighting for our freedoms and fighting very often side by side with soldiers from the United States, which is why today, it is so depressing to look at what is happening to the U.S. under Joe Biden, who seems, for whatever reason, determined to weaken America’s standing, her military, and emboldening her and our enemies, making a mockery of a century’s worth of shared sacrifice.

Now, we’ve all seen the silly side of Joe Biden’s green eco warrior posturing, which this week included the bizarre spectacle of the U.S. president wearing his face mask on a zoom call to discuss climate talks as bemused world leaders looked on. But there’s a more serious side to this posturing, which recently also involved the U.S. Navy putting a mask on its own Eagle logo. And this is it. The Biden administration’s push to go green and force its friends and allies like Australia to do the same, even as China is allowed to keep emitting and growing willy-nilly, is also going to weaken America’s ability to project power around the world. And that’s bad news for all of us. According to one recent analysis, the Pentagon is now considering shifting to what is known as a quote ‘leading by example process’ that involves quote, ‘prioritizing certain foods suppliers for business practices in regenerative agriculture,’ contractors who quote ‘produce green steel and concrete, and even incorporating recycled carbon fibers in defense platforms.’

Now, as enemies circle, Biden is also proposing making cuts in real terms to America’s national defense budget, and yet the biggest so-called improvements to the U.S. military under Biden have involved, yes, making sure that the Special Operations Command has a chief of diversity, though even that blew up like a Wile E. Coyote booby trap when it was revealed that the new inclusion czar spent his spare time comparing Trump to Hitler on Twitter.

I gotta say, Putin an Xi must be quaking in their boots…or more likely laughing. Because, ever since Biden took office, both men have been seeking to cause instability and probe Biden and his weaknesses, which go a lot further than just being unable to string together a coherent sentence. China is looking increasingly muscular when it comes to Taiwan while Russia is conducting an unprecedented military buildup on the borders of Ukraine, actions which, whether they lead to actual conflict or not, have already raised the prospect of how Biden will or will not respond. Now, Donald Trump, for all his flaws, understood that thugs like Xi and Putin spoke in the language of force and that, as bullies, they would be goaded by weakness. As Trump’s former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo tweeted the other day, quote, ‘Strength deters bad guys, weakness begets war.’ As we honor the sacrifices of the Anzac Day fallen, let us hope that Biden learns this lesson to avoid more such sacrifices in the future.
