White House Press Briefing

On Thursday afternoon, the great Steven Nelson of the New York Post put more meat on the bone regarding reports bumbling, fumbling, stumbling White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre barred national security advisor and spokesman John Kirby from speaking to reporters about the Israel-Hamas ceasefire and hostage deal because she didn’t want arguably the only adult in the Biden…

Wednesday afternoon brought us the final Biden White House press briefing and, by her own count, the 306th featuring the ever-inept Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre. It featured Jean-Pierre emotionally patting herself on the back, plenty of unanswered questions (mostly stemming from the monumental Israel-Hamas ceasefire deal), the final Jacqui Time, and even Jean-Pierre doing her own…

With the final White House press briefing on Wednesday afternoon, we’re looking back at the best hardballs, tussles, and moments over the hundreds of Biden administration press briefings, primarily helmed by Jen Psaki and Karine Jean-Pierre. The story of the Biden White House press corps is far more complex than Fox News – led by Peter Doocy and Jacqui Heinrich – asking challenging questions…

The Biden White House snuck in a press briefing Friday afternoon amid the House speaker vote hullabaloo and it had the predictable tone of senioritis with networks reaching deep into their bench for correspondents and producers willing to listen to Karine Jean-Pierre stammer and stumble her way through process questions about Biden’s final days in office, Biden blocking the sale of U.S. Steel…

As the Trace Adkins song goes, you’re going to miss this, you’re going to want this back. Deep down, that’s surely the way at least some feel about the bizarre, entertaining, meandering, only occasionally informative, and stammering White House press briefings in 2024 under Karine Jean-Pierre. With part one having covered 10 moments from January to May, this blog contains the second 10…

There’s no doubt at least some of you out there will miss the antics, hardballs, stumbles, and throwdowns that came to define Karine Jean-Pierre’s 2024 at the White House Briefing Room podium. With over 70 blogs from our press briefing tag to choose from and the topics ranging from the economy to foreign policy to Biden’s mental slippage, Jean-Pierre and the press corps made it difficult for…

In this final year of the Biden presidency, the ever-inept Karine Jean-Pierre provided a litany of verbal stumbles and word salads when under tough questioning from Fox’s Peter Doocy, Jacqui Heinrich, Edward Lawrence, and even from liberal legacy outlets. Thankfully for her, there were also times when she had assists from the press corps in peddling the left’s preferred storylines (to hide…

Thursday’s White House press briefing featured longtime Democratic national security flack John Kirby for what’ll likely be one of his final times at the podium and he had quite the task to insist the Biden administration rejects that a hostile foreign actor or UFOs are behind the drones harassing residents in New Jersey, New York, and now surrounding states, but they still have no clue who’s…

On Friday afternoon, Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre held the first White House briefing in 15 days and the first since President Biden went back on his word of denying he’d pardon his son, Hunter. Needless to say, the press corps came prepared to express their disgust with Jean-Pierre and the President making them look like fools and undermining their aura of respect for the rule of law.…

The White House press briefing returned Thursday for the first time in eight days and, along with questions about the zero interactions between the press and outgoing President Biden during his six-day trip to South America, Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre embarrassed herself with meandering, stumbling answers about both her successor Karoline Leavitt in the second Trump administration and…

Buckle up, White House press corps. On Friday night, President-Elect Donald Trump named longtime aide and Trump 2024 campaign spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt as the incoming White House press secretary and set to do battle with the liberal journalists in the Brady Briefing Room come January 20, 2025.

In the second White House press briefing since the presidential election and a day before the surreal Oval Office sit-down between President Biden and President-Elect Trump, Fox’s Peter Doocy drew Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre’s ire when he wonddered “how awkward was” Tuesday’s lunch between Biden and Vice President Harris at the White House.

With no White House press briefing since October 30, Thursday’s briefing was the first since Tuesday’s general election and, with the massive red wave yielding a Trump presidency and possibly a Republican Congress, Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre faced a room of reporters (ostensibly most being supporters) full of questions about the administration’s reaction to this thorough rebuke.

Axios’s Alex Thompson – one of the few establishment media journalists who’s been doing real journalism on the Biden-Harris administration – uncorked a doozy late Monday revealing further tension in the regime’s ranks as sources told him “Biden press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre has been blocking national security spokesperson John Kirby from joining her at the podium at White House press…
