President Biden and President-elect Trump are both claiming credit for Israel and Hamas agreeing to a ceasefire deal in Gaza after the White House brought Trump’s Middle East envoy into negotiations that have dragged on for months.

I think you meant to post this on the hivemind formerly known as Twitter. Kind of sounds like you’re praising a traitorous felon and giving him credit when he actually only delayed the ceasefire. That is deplorable. His involvement only delayed the ceasefire and caused thousands more deaths.
@pbsnews.bsky.social I’ve been concerned about you for awhile. I assure you nothing you do to appease Trump will help. You can choose to follow the NYT and WaPo into irrelevance and disappear, or you can choose to be objective news reporters and journalists. I abandoned them; you could be next.
Neither of them deserve any credit. Trump for not even being there and Biden for not halting weapon supplies to Israel letting them continue a genocide.
Bidens admin sent 14000 2k lbs bombs since October 2023, 6500 500lbs bombs, 3k hellfire rockets, and thousands more in explosice ordinance.
For a comparison on how many bombs we gave Israel, during the entire Iraq War the US and Britain dropped 29200 bombs in Iraq. In 1 year, the US gave Israel to use almost the same number of bombs we used in the entire 8.75 year Iraq War.
I don't understand why we make an issue of this. Whoever's in the White House initiates to make the deal and invited the future ex-president to take a part in it so the transition would be smoother. Shitheads. Man we're all starting to look alike.
Yes...the guy that wouldn't know a competent team if it bit him on the face and probably has a hs intern in charge of foreign policy should definitely take credit over the guy working on this for months and months. How are you this clumsy in inept with this?
PBS, I am sure you know the truth. Why would you skew this? I have been worried about losing your news and perspectives ( long honored in this household( Due to possible defunding in the next administration. Perhaps I should focus more on journalism that focuses on the truth ,stop worrying about PBS
Trump did very openly (and illegally) tell Bibi to keep the war going until after the election so he could get credit for it. Not the first time he interfered just to benefit himself, and not the last time innocents will die because of him.
Who is the president of the United States at this time, yeah that’s right, it’s Biden, so that means he gets the credit. Trump should also give Biden credit for having handed him over a robust economy.
In fact, his little meeting with Netanyahu in July was likely an attempt to stall everything, so he could use it against Biden during the campaign. He’s never put anyone’s well being above his bids for power.
“But nobody is giving Putin credit for letting Hamas off leash to ensure Arab American voters would not vote for a Democratic Party Israel friendly candidate?”
PBS isn't pushing any agenda, it's just stating facts, trump is trying to take credit for it, whether we like it or not. That's why PBS is trusted, it states the facts without taking sides
Look. We know you're scared, PBS, but integrity is important. Especially now when it is such short supply and lies and greasy politicking are oozing out of every infected pore of our Republic right now.
Your headline needs a rewrite, PBS. It should say, “President Biden helps negotiate a ceasefire for Israel and Hamas and the felon, President-Elect Trump, lies to try and take credit for it.”
I mean Qatar said it was Trump envoy. I hate that he is the one that gets credit considering the immense amount of BS he will pull in the next four years but Biden never really wanted to end the genocide
Trump was too busy causing chaos, creating drama where there was none, trying to stop the government from functioning, and poorly golfing to have done ANYTHING of interest or to help the people in the U.S., let alone Gaza. 😏🙄🥴🤡

Trump wants to shut down PBS!!!
Who do you think supports you?
God, PBS... Trump will take credit for sunshine and you'll equivocate.
Biden put this plan forward in May and invited the incoming Middle East envoy into the process because "that's what presidents do."
In four years we'll all be exhausted from it.
Trump has nothing to do w/ this ceasefire!!
