Does She Even Try? KJP Plays Clueless to Reporters Over WH Cocaine
Whether it’s the Biden documents scandal, allegations of Biden family corruption, or the latest twist in Hunter Biden’s life of ruin to name a few, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre has consistently stuck to the theme of playing dumb when faced with even gentle questions from the liberal White House press corps. Such was the case Wednesday concerning the bag of cocaine found in…
Journos Spar with KJP Over Biden's Lack of Focus on Job
At Monday's White House press briefing, the incompetent diversity hire press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre took fire from all sides over President Biden’s ineffectiveness to push his agenda through Congress and his lack of focus on the issues that matter to the American people. First out of the gate was CBS News Radio’s Steve Portnoy who chastised KJP over Biden’s lack of engagement in the left…
DOGPILE! Reporters Hound Kirby on Biden's Afghan Withdrawal Report
On Thursday’s White House press conference, the incompetent Karine Jean-Pierre once again used National Security Council Coordinator for Strategic Communications John Kirby as a crutch by letting him brief the members of the White House press corps for nearly the entire time. The topic of the day was the conveniently timed release of the Biden regime’s post-mortem on the disastrous withdrawal…
WEIRD: African Reporter Demands Gun Control to KJP Amid Docs Hardballs
Tuesday afternoon’s White House press briefing brought about plenty more hardballs on President Biden’s classified documents scandal that the ever-inept Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre refused to answer, but along the way, Angolan reporter Hariana Veras temporarily brought the briefing to a halt with two long stemwinders of leftist commentary demanding gun control.
Throwing Joe Overboard? WH Press Corps EVISCERATE KJP in Wild Briefing
Tuesday’s White House press briefing marked another installment of a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day for the inept Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre as, while she ignored journalists from the Daily Caller, Fox News, and Newsmax about President Biden’s classified documents scandal, she ran into a proverbial buzzsaw from outlets such as ABC, the AP, CBS, CBS News Radio, NBC, and NPR…
Behold Friday's Smartest & Dumbest Briefing Biden Docs Questions
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre faced the press corps Friday to close out a week almost no one saw coming with the revelation that the Biden administration had kept hidden for two months that classified documents were found at a (faux) think tank and his Wilmington, Delaware home. Like we saw on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, some reporters brought the heat on what’s now a…
Doocy, Wegmann TORPEDO KJP Over the Left’s Abortion Obsession
In only the fourth White House press briefing this month, Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre faced a litany of questions Tuesday about the left’s fixation on abortion (instead of crime or the economy). As we’ve come to expect, Fox’s Peter Doocy and Real Clear Politics’s Philip Wegmann turned up the heat with Doocy asking if the White House is more concerned about abortions than struggling…
KJP Embarrasses Herself Battling Journos on Biden’s New Mental Gaffe
In what might be her worst performance as White House press secretary (in what’s already been dominated by ineptitude), Karine Jean-Pierre faced searing heat Wednesday from across the ideological spectrum of the press corps after President Joe Biden called out to Congresswoman Jackie Walorski (R-IN) at a global hunger event despite the fact that Walorski died nearly two months ago.
Nets Hype Kansas Abortion 'Backlash,' Pro-Lifers Being 'Flat-Footed'

OUCH! Doocy, Portnoy Torch WH Over Biden's Doctor Hiding From Press
For the second press briefing in a row, the White House took a beating from reporters due to President Joe Biden’s personal physician hiding from hungry reporters’ questions on the state of Biden’s COVID treatment, recovery, and overall health. You know it's bad when reporters from CBS News, The New York Times, and NewsMax all grilled the White House COVID-19 response coordinator Ashish Jha on…
Ooof: CBS, NBC Reporters Grill WH’s Bedingfield Over Hunter Biden
After a slanted softball from NBC’s Kristen Welker during Wednesday’s White House Press Briefing, Thursday’s briefing featured substantive questions about Hunter Biden’s life of corruption to White House Communications Director Kate Bedingfield via Welker and CBS’s Ed O’Keefe and Steven Portnoy. This time, the trio pressed on whether they stand by President Biden’s claims that Hunter didn’t do…
Fireworks: White House Reporters Squabble Over Press Access
On Monday afternoon after the White House press briefing, the Briefing Room became the site of a contentious and, at times, heated debate about who gets to ask questions and how many as, thanks to longstanding power bestowed on the AP reporter slot, the Q&A portion of the briefing only lasted about 39 minutes.
Back to Business: Doocy Duels Psaki Over Illegal Immigration, Ukraine
Aside from a question by the White House Correspondents Association president, it was back to business Tuesday in the White House Briefing Room a day after President Biden called Fox’s Peter Doocy “a stupid son of a bitch” and then called him to hash it out. Doocy led the way in shifting focus back to the news, battling Press Secretary Jen Psaki over illegal immigration and the crisis at the…
Here’s the Five WORST (and Best) Legacy Media Questions to Biden
Wednesday marked what had to have been one of the more stressful days at the White House as President Biden spent nearly two hours before reporters, calling on 24 of them and fielding over 60 questions on a robust set of issues (aside from crime and illegal immigration). We've already covered the questions from Fox’s Peter Doocy, the New York Post’s Steven Nelson, Newsmax’s James…
