US President Joe Biden said in March that he was “very concerned” about Israel’s democracy amid months of protests over the proposed judicial overhaul. “I’m concerned they get this straight,” he said at the time. “They cannot continue down this road.”

Netanyahu responded by saying Israel is a sovereign country and makes decisions by the will of its people, “not based on pressures from abroad.” His national security minister, Itamar Ben-Gvir, said Biden “needs to understand that Israel is no longer a star on the US flag. We are a democracy, and I expect the US president to understand that.”

Biden is goed bezig.
 
CIA-chef wordt lid van het kabinet-Biden:
While the move is largely symbolic and does not grant any new authority to Burns, his elevation to the cabinet means he will now attend high-level meetings alongside the secretaries of defense and state, Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines, and other executive department heads.
Though the position of CIA director was previously a cabinet-level role, that changed with the creation of the director of national intelligence role in 2005, in the aftermath of the September 11 terrorist attacks. Starting that year, the DNI has served in the cabinet instead of the CIA chief.
