Joseph Biden actually said...

"The Biden administration is talking to Russia about bringing both of these Americans home and offering to Russia what they think ought to be enough to bring them both home."

"We need to say clearly, unfortunately, white supremacy, all forms of hate, fueled by violence have no place in America. Fair to call it out as complicity. My dad would say if your silence is complicit..."

"President Biden met for the first time with family members and WNBA Star Brittney Griner and former U.S. Marine Paul Whelan who are both detained in Russia."

"Republicans are playing politics with human beings, using them as props. What they’re doing is simply wrong. It’s unAmerican, it’s reckless."
