In other news..apparently illegal immigration is DOWN 90% due to the bang up job this administration is doing. This woman, who serves as Joe Biden's mouthpiece brings a level of fuckery to that podium that's truly astonishing...i mean this is next level stuff here.

"In the meantime, he has tools that he's used to make sure we do this. We actually deal with the immigration system in a humane way, in a way that actually deals with what we're seeing at the border. And that's why you've seen the parolee program be so successful. When it comes to illegal immigration, you've seen it come down by more than 90%. And that's because of this, the actions that this president has taken," Jean-Pierre said.

The daily gaslighting and out and out lying from the podium by this Press Secretary is astonishing to behold. There are only a few in that press corps who decide to challenge her, and when they do, she has zero answer or simply just walks off the stage.
The difference in how these conferences proceed now vs 2017-2020 is incredible to behold and Biden won’t answer questions, but just walks off- then jokes about it and throws it in the press corps face at the White House correspondents dinner. They meekly laugh.
What an accountability disgrace this Administration is.

Is there a link to this press conference? I'd like to hear if there was any other nonsense during it. Thanks

Note to self, do not like tweets because it may cost you your job in academia. So now we can”t question science? Got it! Kinda goes against the rule of thumb.

What a great idea. Return to 2017-20 press conferences filled with bigger crowd size photos (?) and alternate facts.
Just what we need. And a president with over 30,000 lies and counting.
Oh boy, let's do that. A president that broke another decades long tradition by being too afraid to go to even one White House Press Corps dinner.
Guess that's why he's the overwhelming choice of Republicans at this stage.
Can't wait.

alternate facts? Pot meet kettle.

For actual truth:
2022 had 2.76 million illegal border crossings, more than doubling the previous record. Migrant border crossings haven’t decreased. March 2023 saw a 25% increase in border crossings.

You are being intentionally obtuse with total ignoring of the daily spewing of lies and obsfucation occurring in the White House press briefings. Remember how inflation was “transitory” and Joe Biden was gonna visit East Palestine and Kamala was gonna visit the border, not just have a photo op in El Paso?
And when will Biden actually hold a press conference. This far he has held the fewest of any recent President. When he comes out to speak he reads from prepared text, turns on his heel and ignores all questions.
Ya know. It’s not like there is anything going on in the world like bank failures, wars and inflation.

By the way. Biden’s joke at his speech was it was just like his press interactions. They laughed despite them being used & insulted. Good times for accountability!!
