Former aides to former President Barack Obama signaled disgust Wednesday with details about President Joe Biden being privately angry behind the scenes about an airstrike that killed aid workers in Gaza.
'The President doesn't get credit for being "privately enraged" when he still refuses to use leverage to stop the IDF from killing and starving innocent people,' wrote former Obama speechwriter Jon Favreau wrote on X. 'These stories only make him look weak.'
Favreau reacted Wednesday to a story from Politico noting that Biden was 'privately enraged' by the deadly strike from Israel against a World Central Kitchen convoy delivering food to victims of the war in Gaza. Seven aid workers were killed in the bombing, including an American citizen.
