There’s a Glaring Problem With a Pic Biden Released of His Call With Zelensky – Opinion

There were many questions on Thursday regarding the conversation Joe Biden held with Volodymyr Zelesky, Ukrainian president. CNN reported that it did not go well and that Biden told Zelensky to brace for impact, the Russian invasion was coming, and that Kyiv might be “sacked.”

This is the video I shared in my story.

But then, the White House and Ukraine denied that that call had gone badly and that Biden said “sacked.” As I noted, the problem was that both the White House and Ukraine have cause to not say if the call didn’t go well or if Biden said bad things because the White House doesn’t want the gaffes out there, and Ukraine doesn’t need more panic or the White House cutting off their support.

Republicans and other members of Congress began to call for the release of the transcription to clarify what was said.

People made comparisons between the phone conversation between Donald Trump, Zelensky and Zelensky in which Democrats requested the release of the transcript. CNN then began to delete all mentions of the report including that video.

Now there’s a new question and, again, it’s all on the head of Joe Biden’s actions.

Biden has now released a picture — allegedly a photo of his call to Zelensky.

I spoke with Ukrainian President Zelenskyy to discuss our coordinated diplomatic efforts and reaffirm our support for Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity. We will respond decisively — along with our Allies and partners — if Russia further invades Ukraine. pic.twitter.com/hRaUIxyxCd

But immediately — just like with the rigged chart that Biden was busted on about the economy — people noticed an issue. It appears that this is the White House, not Biden’s fake White House. But look out the window: those are fully green trees, when it’s winter in D.C.

So, it would appear that’s a stock photo. Now, that’s a problem when it’s purported to be a picture of his call with Zelensky because such things become the historical record. This is a very problematic move, and then it raises another question: why isn’t there an actual picture of the call, as you would normally have for such things? They are trying to make it look current by pulling out an old stock photo. Not to mention that the photo isn’t a particularly good one for this purpose. I think they thought it showed him looking resolute, but instead, he appears concerned/confused/angry.

He was responded to by the Republicans.

#ReleaseTheTranscriptsAre you really hiding something?

The White House is not doing a great job. Transcripts available.
