Oh boy, buckle up for this rollercoaster of diplomatic faux pas! The White House press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, refused to apologize on behalf of President Joe Biden after he called U.S. ally Japan “xenophobic.” Yikes! During a fundraiser event, Biden went on a tangent about how the U.S. economy is thriving because of immigrants, unlike supposedly xenophobic countries like Japan, China, and Russia. Someone hand him a map, he might need a geography lesson next!

Despite Japan being a key ally to counter China’s increasing aggression, Biden didn’t hold back from throwing shade. Jean-Pierre, bless her heart, tried to spin Biden’s blunder by emphasizing the importance of immigrants in America’s history. But let’s be real here, calling out a friend as xenophobic isn’t exactly the best way to win friends and influence people. Maybe a lesson in diplomacy could be in order for our dear President.
Breitbart News chimed in with their two cents, highlighting the negative impacts of mass migration on American workers. Apparently, they think Biden’s open-door policy is like a real-life Monopoly game, with the rich getting richer and the poor… well, getting poorer. According to them, this influx of immigrants is driving down wages and driving up rents faster than a car in a Fast and Furious movie.
In the midst of this diplomatic mishap, Jean-Pierre stood her ground, refusing to offer any apologies. But hey, who needs apologies when you’re just spreading the good word about immigrants, right? In any case, let’s hope Biden brushes up on his international relations skills before his next foot-in-mouth moment. Stay tuned, folks, politics is always good for a laugh!
