WATCH: Biden-Harris Worked ‘Around the Clock’ for Months on Gaza Ceasefire Deal That’s Never Going to Happen

President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have claimed for months to be working “around the clock” on a Gaza ceasefire deal that is “close” to happening. Spoiler alert: It’s not going to happen because Hamas, the terrorist organization that massacred Israeli civilians on Oct. 7, doesn’t want to release their hostages.

 

Despite their reportedly tireless efforts to negotiate with the terrorists, the Biden-Harris administration has privately conceded that a ceasefire deal won’t happen before the end of Biden’s term in January 2025. “No deal is imminent,” a Biden-Harris official told the Wall Street Journal. “I’m not sure it ever gets done.”

The Journal’s report highlights the fecklessness of an administration that has repeatedly stressed the importance of securing a ceasefire deal in exchange for the release of Israeli hostages. President Biden has claimed since February to be “close” to achieving such a deal. Meanwhile, Harris has claimed to be “working around the clock” for months with nothing to show.

“I absolutely believe that this war has to end, and it has to end as soon as possible,” Harris said this week during a softball interview with members of the National Association of Black Journalists. “And the way that will be achieved is by getting a hostage deal and the ceasefire deal done. And we are working around the clock to achieve that end.”

It would appear that the Biden-Harris administration is finally starting to realize that Hamas is not a reliable negotiating partner. (Duh.) Administration officials have grown “frustrated” with the terrorist organization, which continues to make demands but then “refuses to say ‘yes’ after the U.S. and Israel accept them,” the Journal reports. The officials are starting to suspect the Hamas terrorists are not “serious about completing an agreement.”
