The killing of al Qaeda leader al-Zawahri marks, what the White House hopes will be, a turning of the page on the presidency’s darkest day — one that could aid a potential Biden revival.

In the last week, Biden’s White House has watched key Democrats agree to a surprise, stunning reconciliation package that could jumpstart the party’s chances this fall. Additionally, a bipartisan deal was reached to pass a massive economic program to bolster the nation’s ability to manufacture computer chips in order to compete with China. And the president may soon be able to sign a bill granting additional benefits to veterans exposed to toxic burn pits.

“It disrupts one of the most important terror networks in the world,” said Haass. “It sends an important message that the United States has enormous reach, that we don’t need to have an on-the-ground presence.” “What unnerves me is that Al-Zawahri felt comfortable enough being out in the open in the Kabul area after the Taliban takeover,” said Sen. Lindsey Graham , a fierce critic of Biden’s decision to withdraw. “So much for the Taliban rejecting al-Qaida. This is proof positive that Afghanistan has once again become a safe haven for international terrorists.”

The suicide bomb detonated Aug. 26. Biden addressed the calamity in a national address but he did not waver in his commitment to the evacuation. Over the next several weeks, the U.S. safely evacuated thousands but scores of Afghans who worked as interpreters or helped the Americans in other ways were left to fend for themselves against the Taliban.

lmao no one cares

You guys get an 'A' for effort... but the answer is no...

good to see that the media arm of the white house still has it's collective head up it's collective rectum.

Revival? This killing in no way affects my bottom line. In retirement every day more and more costs eat away at my savings. To hell with Zawahri and with Biden

Give him time, he'll screw that up too

Killing a terrorist the US has been hunting for 20 years does not change the complete fiasco the Afghanistan withdrawal was.

🤣😆😂😁😅

I wonder how long they knew exactly where this old terrorist was and just sat on it till they needed a poll bump?

I'll take this as seriously as 'The walls are closing in on Trump.' 🙄

You really think that makes up for everything? Or anything 🙄🤡🌎

Weekend at Biden to the Future: We're gonna get Bin Laden again

The Dems have like three buttons max they can push and with 'deficit reduction' and 'TRUMP!!!!' not working they've got no choice but to resort to 'terminate more brown people'

Dimentia was isolated in the White House, they didn't even bother to call him to the situation room to plan and order the hit. He found out the same time we did. Just like the globe knows, he's not even in charge of his bowels, just as the Pope. He shit his pants at the Vatican

Clowns. Biden sucks harder than Kamala and you know it.

How does this help the economy?

This was the one guy in the entire government who opposed hitting Bin Laden. He didn't order this. Someone else did.

🙄🤡🙄🤡🙄

No.

Doubtful. We still have Bidenflation, high energy costs. And soon to have Manchinflation, brought to you by the good folks at Mountain Valley Pipeline. I just knew deep down Manchin was bought off.

Make no mistake, corp media is prepping to gaslight the ever living shit out of America with future stories about how well JB turned things around, regardless, and in the very face of, the complete opposite being true, no. matter. what.

You MSM guys writing this same story once a month now? 'Biden didn't crap his pants today! Comeback Kid!'

Batting .100 is not the sign of a revival

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 nope 🤡s

Sorry, I'm not minimizing 9/11 and killing this guy is great and justice but he wasn't a current threat to the US like the economy and inflation are. Plus, you guys told us droning terrorists was dangerous and could start a war when Trump did it.

There will be a Biden revival when my 401k/IRA get back to Trump levels. When the border is secure, when America is energy independent, when the price of gas/diesel is pre-Biden, when the price of food comes back down, should I continue? No, didn't think so..

Hard to find out if it's even the truth, that's how much I trust these people. They LIE about everything

Ask my bank account if it gives a shit about this. BidenInflation BidenRecession

Nah.. We're glad he's dead but we know it was just midterm politics and shity poll numbers. It's disgusting.

Bless your hearts…Grandpa slept through it.

Come on al-Zawahri has prob been hanging out with the Taliban there for months, I mean he was out on a balcony when droned. Not in some basement like Hussein or surrounded by kids in a house like Bin Laden. Almost like POTUS was trying to change the narrative🤔

X

This story reads like a DNC fund-raising e-mail. Because that's basically what it is. 'Journalism'

Why not report on the other 11 people that were killed ?

Biden: Hands over full control of Afghanistan to the Taliban and $80b in advanced weaponry. Taliban: Offers safe harbor to al Qaeda (and others) CIA: Tracks & kills al-Zawahri Biden: No, I killed him! Media: Yeah, Biden killed him! Also Media: Biden's the bravest warrior ever!!

Biden is the proverbial dead horse and Politico thinks if they beat him some more it will revive him.

Let's see if that 'inflation reduction act' reduces inflation. Hint: it won't

Biden had as much to do with this as I did.

Inflation, recession, high gas prices, shortages, yep that will all be forgotten by the guy who they thought was already dead

We need proof this actually happened. As we’ve seen for 18 months ,Biden administration is not above lying.

This is almost humorous if it wasn’t so ridiculous. This guy was wanted for 21 yrs. He ended up in a City in an affluent neighborhood that we had control of a yr ago. He was on his balcony and a Drone took him out. Not a soldier, no troops so all he said was “ Fly It”.

how many times can Zawahiri die?

only a zombie president, but not called 'Chucky'.

Oh no!! A clear victory for President Biden and the US! We can't have that! There has to be some way to look at this as a dismal failure!

Meanwhile in 2019 Trump did this

No it won't, Capt potato is garbage and of course you all are carrying a pool full of water for him

14 deceased USMC would probably disagree with you

He died in 2020 from illness.

Now cancel all federal student debt.

Silly. If that was WhiteHouse reasoning they are in for a shock.

Did we ever get all the Americans Biden abandoned in Afghanistan?

In their dreams...
