John Kirby

Axios’s lead story on Friday morning by Alex Thompson was one of the least surprising revelations for anyone who’s observed a White House press briefing: the impressively incompetent Karine Jean-Pierre seems to be jealous and upset with having to share so many briefings with National Security Council spokesman John Kirby. Why? It’s obvious as Kirby, unlike Jean-Pierre, has a grasp of the…

After taking trips down memory lane on Tuesday and Thursday with the six most pro-Hamas moments and grillings from the left, respectively, we’re going to open 2024 with the 12 best moments – battles, beatdowns, and hardballs – from 2023, the first full year of the ever-inept Karine Jean-Pierre’s term at the podium.

For decades, the liberal media have always had a soft spot for Hamas. Heck, even the Associated Press’s Gaza bureau shared a Gaza City high-rise with the barbaric Islamists. In the days following Hamas’s animalistic reign of terror on October 7, some in the White House press corps pestered National Security Council’s John Kirby during briefings with Hamas talking points. Check out the full…

With Tuesday and Thursday serving as the final White House press briefings of 2023, we had everything from questions at the border — which was a focus of the year’s first briefing — to more pro-Hamas idiocy. Starting with Thursday, the best exchange came when the Fox Business Network’s Hillary Vaughn battled the National Security Council’s John Kirby over the latest flare-up in the seemingly…

You just know that things are bad when the network evening newscasts have to actually make the time to report on the ongoing explosion at the southern border. Tonight, all three networks reported on the record detentions this week. None, however, reported on the White House's tie-in to the awful prisoner swap with the Maduro dictatorship in Venezuela.

With President Biden out and about to start the week, White House press briefings didn’t kick off this week until Wednesday and continued on Thursday, leaving plenty of space for questions from the left bashing Israel, the New York Post’s Steven Nelson and Real Clear Politics’s Philip Wegmann stumping Biden flacks Karine Jean-Pierre and John Kirby, and, of course, Doocy Time on Hunter…

It’s been over two months since eight Americans were taken hostage by Hamas on October 7, and President Biden had only gotten around to meeting with their families on Wednesday. Of course, this long overdue sit-down was lauded by the liberal sycophants at ABC’s Good Morning America on Thursday. Meanwhile, at the same time, they were pushing for America to abandon Israel in their war…

Continuing her pattern of grilling Biden officials, NBC’s Today co-host Savannah Guthrie did the same on Tuesday in pressing the National Security Council’s John Kirby for specifics echoed by Republicans — instead of merely scoffing at them — on why Congress should grant billions of additional dollars to Ukraine in its war against Russia. Guthrie eventually pivoted to a series of…

Wednesday’s White House press briefing took a dark turn when an Arab reporter lashed out at Israel as “a terrorist state” inflicting “collective punishment” on Gazans and “killing...civilians” and “journalists” just moments after a reporter from the Saudi-funded Alarabiya asked whether the U.S. finds it “acceptable” and “positive” that “the ratio of killing Hamas fighters is equivalent to two…

For the first White House press briefing since the Thanksgiving holiday, it was the ultimate contrast of stupidity vs. substance. In the one corner, longtime far-left White House correspondent and African-American activist April Ryan lobbied the ever-inept Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre to have President Biden discuss “the black agenda” with Stevie Wonder.

The “big three” networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC were unsurprisingly smitten Thursday morning with President Biden’s Wednesday summit with Chinese totalitarian leader Xi Jinping, singing Biden’s praises as if they had been giving White House scripts. However, ABC and CBS showed disgust with Biden for creating a “damaging” “setback” that could “negate” and “undo” “goodwill” with Xi by saying he’s…

Almost on a daily basis at the White House press briefing, reporters from the taxpayer-funded outlets NPR, PBS, and Voice of America remind us why they deserve to be defunded. On Monday, VOA correspondent Patsy Widakuswara asked National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan if President Biden’s “concerned” that America’s “on the wrong side of history” by supporting Israel, adding the U.S. is “losing…

“Pro-Hamas” is the only way to describe anyone who at this point in history tries to downplay or dismiss the fact that the terrorist organization uses human shields and particularly places their command centers under hospitals and other civilian infrastructure. So, that’s the term to describe MSNBC host Andrea Mitchell on Monday after she argued with National Security Council spokesman John…

On Tuesday, the National Security Council’s John Kirby went before fellow liberals who normally work as stenographers for power (i.e. Kirby and his friends), but during the Israel-Hamas war, Kirby has fended off questions ranging from the insane to the wrong to downright anti-Israel. This time, he was accused by a reporter for a Saudi-funded outlet of being a puppet for Israel and pressed by…
