World leaders wonder who is running America's foreign policy

"And there are plenty more of these mixed signals, all of which make world leaders, friendly and unfriendly, wonder who the heck is running things - Omar, Kamala, Biden, or the swamp? All in all, this isn't the 'America's back' approach that Biden promised."

For weeks now, Zelenskyy has sent numerous private and public messages; call me! He desperately wants a phone call with the new president.

"Of course, he isn't getting one, given young Hunter's ties with Burisma and the criminal probe presumably still happening around it." . . .
