On Monday Reuters had a report about the U.S.-built floating pier near Gaza designed to facilitate delivering humanitarian assistance into that area. According to Reuters, much, if not all, of the aid wasn't ending up in the intended hands. The story wasn't surprising in the least:
Then, one day later, a Pentagon spokesperson confirmed the veracity of the Reuters report, adding that the U.S. doesn't believe ANY of the aid sent has reached people in need in Gaza:
To date, over 569 metric tons of humanitarian assistance has been delivered across the temporary pier in Gaza, says @PentagonPresSec

Due to logistical issues in distributing the aid coming in through the pier, US, Israeli and UN officials are discussing "alternative routes" for the safe movement of staff and cargo, Ryder adds

The Biden White House oversaw the construction of a $300 million pier ostensibly designed to get aid to people in Gaza and it's apparently ended up being an operation supporting Hamas. That's according to a Pentagon spokesperson:
Wow: Ryder says "I do not believe" any of the aid that's been delivered through the pier has actually gotten to the people of Gaza

An estimated 569+ metric tons of humanitarian aid has been delivered to Gaza via the temporary pier.

None of it has made it to the people of Gaza. https://t.co/RZzxG7nmBn

That's probably the most predictable thing in this history of predictable things, but lefty commentators such as MSNBC's Chris Hayes can't believe anybody was able to undermine Joe Biden's foreign policy genius:

He's supposed to be one of the smarter liberal pundits, and he's flabbergasted by something everyone saw coming a mile away

Who could have possibly predicted that? Not this guy:

Is that really very surprising?
Hamas is stealing it moron.

It is absolutely hilarious that you're shocked Biden's plan actually sucks.

You'd think that after 3.5 years of every Biden plan sucking that the Left wouldn't be surprised anymore when another great idea ends up sucking, and yet here we are.
Chris Hayes was today years old when he found out that Hamas doesn’t actually care about the wellbeing of the Palestinian people

If you’re surprised by this, I have a bridge from Gaza to the West Bank to sell you. https://t.co/BX4G4zVuYg

MSNBC will probably end up trying to find a way to blame climate change and Trump for this.
To call Biden’s foreign policy decisions “moronic” would be an insult to morons. https://t.co/96ff6NQxVL

Biden's been a disaster on all fronts.
