During an interview with Fox News Monday morning, National Security Council spokesman John Kirby was cornered on Biden's long list of foreign policy catastrophes since taking office in January 2021.
When asked to give an example of bolstered American strength and persuasion since Biden took office, Kirby failed to deliver details while rattling off broad claims of Biden leadership on the issues.
"This is a president who understands American leadership on the world stage," Kirby said. "He has devoted additional resources, not just diplomatically but militarily, economically around the world to advance our national security interests."
BILL HEMMER: "Can you argue that American strength and persuasion is better today than it was four years ago globally?"
