50 Cent blasts Biden for taking another vacation in the midst of war and chaos: 'Get the f*** up'

Curtis James Jackson III, better known as 50 Cent, has been an outspoken critic of the fallout of Democratic leadership. He has recently zeroed his criticism in on President Joe Biden, suggesting that rather than further pad his record of vacation days since taking office, the octogenarian Democrat should be addressing the chaos presently unfolding at home and abroad.

Last week, Biden traveled to Israel to signal support for the Jewish nation in the aftermath of the recent Hamas terrorist attacks. He then asked Congress to dish out another $100 billion in foreign aid. This activity-packed week was evidently deserving of another vacation.

With an Israeli ground invasion of Gaza looming, 10 Americans still unaccounted for, American embassies facing mounting threats in Arab nations, and a worsening crisis at the U.S. southern border, Biden high-tailed it Friday to his mansion overlooking Cape Henlopen State Park in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, where he had no events scheduled.

Viral footage shows Biden ambling along the beach in the company of Jill Biden when pressed by a reporter about the status of the American hostages held by Hamas. In lieu of an answer, he simply smiled and waved.

The idea that Biden was working on his tan amidst the chaos proved too much for 50 Cent to bear.

The affluent musician and self-described "born-again Christian" posted a picture to Instagram Saturday of Biden relaxing on the beach with the caption, "Hey Joe get the f*** up, we in trouble man!"

After his initial post made headlines, 50 Cent blasted Biden again on Sunday, writing, "We got some real s**t going on out here Joe," adding, "What's the plan to get a tan and chill come on now."

White House spokesman Andrew Bates responded to 50 Cent's remarks, telling Fox News Digital, "As has been the case for the better part of a century, Presidents can execute the full range of their duties from anywhere in the world – whether it's a war zone in Israel or 100 miles from the White House in Delaware."

Bates further suggested that Biden "works long hours every day."

The New York Post reported that as of Aug. 27, Biden had spent 382 of his presidency's 957 days on personal overnight trips away from the White House. That figure, which does not reflect the days Biden has idled on beaches since, amounts to roughly 40% of his presidency to date. By way of comparison, throughout former President Donald Trump's 1,461 days in office, he spent a total of 381 days on personal trips out of Washington.
