** Rhodes: Biden Has Shown Saudi Oil, Money Can Buy a Reputation
------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------
Wednesday on MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell Reports ([link removed]) , former Obama Deputy National Security Adviser Ben Rhodes ([link removed]) said President Biden visiting Saudi Arabia after vowing to make them a pariah “sends kind of a message that if you have enough oil and you have enough money, you can buy your way into having a different kind of reputation.”
While discussing the PGA-LIV merger, Rhodes stated, “It’s all been a methodical effort since that Khashoggi murder to methodically rebuild the reputation of Saudi Arabia by buying into sports and culture and business and elements of U.S. and European society. And, at a certain point, we are demonstrating that that works. Even, frankly, the President of the United States said he’d make Saudi Arabia a pariah on the campaign, and then visited there. It sends kind of a message that if you have enough oil and you have enough money, you can buy your way into having a different kind of reputation.”
He added, “I’m sure that the United States is motivated by some fears that you’re going to see Saudi Arabia drift into that kind of China column, particularly with the war in Ukraine and with high energy prices and, obviously, with the interest in normalization with Israel. What I would hope, though, is that we don’t consistently have to check our values at the door.”
Nothing to worry about, Ben. The Biden regime never had any values to check.

Rhodes Calls for Government Censorship of Conservatives
During MSNBC’s coverage of President Joe Biden’s inauguration on January 20, 2021, Rhodes stated ([link removed]) that if social media companies like Twitter did not intensify their regulation of speech that Democrats and the Biden administration deemed objectionable, then government would have to impose its own regulatory measures. Said Rhodes: “I think from a policy perspective … there are big questions about the future of social media in this country, whether or not someone has to step in and regulate these platforms so that it’s not left to the CEO of Twitter to make a decision to kick President Trump off a couple weeks before his term ends and after the Democrats have won back control of government. But rather, can government work with these tech companies to determine how they can at least slow the spread of this poisonous
disinformation?” “All of us have a responsibility now, starting from the presidency, starting from the White House, but to those social media companies, to Facebook, and to all of us as citizens to realize, to wake up to just how close we came to losing it all,” Rhodes continued. “We need everybody to step up here and that includes social media, and if they won’t, that means that government’s going to have to step in as well.”
