(BPR) On a day when the Hamas terror organization released the first group of hostages taken during its sneak attack on Israel, President Joe Biden said that he doesn’t know when American captives will be freed or if they’re even still alive.
The Democrat leader took a break from his traditional Thanksgiving weekend vacation on swanky Nantucket Island off the Massachusetts coast to address the press following the release of 24 hostages on Friday – with no Americans being among them – in a swap with Hamas that included 39 Palestinian prisoners who were let out of Israeli jails.
“Yesterday, families all across America gathered together with their loved ones to give thanks,” he said. “Today we can also be thankful of families being recruited and reunited with loved ones who have been held hostage for nearly 50 days.”

Biden also patted himself on the back for the four-day ceasefire in Gaza, a pause in fighting that much of his rabidly anti-Israel base has been clamoring for, and finally their weekslong temper tantrum paid off.
“Beginning this morning, under a deal reached by extensive U.S. diplomacy, including numerous calls I’ve made from the Oval Office to leaders across the region, fighting in Gaza will halt for four days,” he said.
“As I said, today’s release are the start of a process. We expect more hostages to be released tomorrow and more the day after and more the day after that. Over the next few days, we expect that dozens of hostages will be returned to their families,” Biden added.
Asked by a reporter when the Americans who were abducted by the murderous savages would also be released, the president had no answer.
