U.S. Senator John Kennedy (R-LA), a firebrand known for his acerbic wit, devastating one-liners, and apparent lack of any meaningful filter to what he actually thinks, appeared with Fox News‘s Sean Hannity on Friday.
During the interview with the primetime New Yorker, lamenting his lack of Senate representation, Kennedy issued one of the most biting, damning critiques of the Biden administration yet aired.
After a brief introduction from Hannity, the 71-year-old, who has represented Louisiana since 2017, began in his comfortable southern drawl,
“President Biden’s report on Afghanistan, Sean, is a fable. The American people may be poorer under President Biden, but they are not stupid. President Biden’s approval rating ranks right up there with jock itch among American voters. And there is — there’s — there’s a reason for that.”
Hannity’s live audience voiced their enthusiastic agreement as he paused. He continued, “It’s the president’s… in part his surrender to the Taliban and Afghanistan. Now, that’s not the only thing that the Biden administration history screwed up, never one or two cockroaches. President Biden has mismanaged Congress, mismanaged covid, mismanaged the border, mismanaged crime, mismanaged the spy balloon, mismanaged the economy, mismanaged fentanyl, and forfeited our energy independence.”
Taking Biden to task for his incompetence isn’t exactly new territory for Kennedy though. In August suggested that the elderly Democrat might be “Better off selling catheters.”
Kennedy added, “His surrender to the Taliban in Afghanistan was especially egregious because it telegraphed as you pointed out to China and Russia and North Korea and Iran, that he, President Biden intended to pursue peace through weakness. And peace through weakness never works. Now, those are the facts.”
The senator gave a bit more clarification to Hannity of the self-evidence of his analysis and may have even coined a new phrase, saying,
“It gives me no joy to recite them but unless you’re a ‘woker’ or unless you have a neck tattoo or unless you have both, you’re both, you know that I am correct. And the American people know that I’m correct.”
Though it must be stated, contrary to the senator, the possession of a “neck tattoo” is not necessarily indicative of leftist political leanings. Some of the most tattooed bikers, truckers, and veterans are for example the most stalwart of America-First conservatives. (Perhaps we can allow the senator some poetic license here.)

Hannity asked Sen. Kennedy directly: “What I see happening is because Joe Biden abdicated his role as a leader of the free world, they are enemies that don’t have great intentions for the world are now taking full advantage. And I think this is now developing a new axis of evil, am I overstating the fact?”
Kennedy’s answer was equally direct: “No. Think back. Why did Putin invade Ukraine? Why has China been so aggressive. During the first year of Biden’s term, he not only surrendered to the Taliban, he removed sanctions on the Nord stream 2 pipeline. He got rid of the China initiative. He showed every intention of trying to apiece both China and Russia. And you mentioned what scares you, I will tell you what also scares me…”
“President Biden has another year and a half to discover new and innovative ways to suck. And it is a dangerous world out there.”
