Karine Jean-Pierre just went through one of her worst days at the office yet.
Predictably, it stemmed from another back-and-forth with her least favorite reporter.
And Karine Jean-Pierre just got obliterated on national television by none other than Peter Doocy.
Karine Jean-Pierre fails to answer for funding Lebanon over hurricane victims
The fake news media is working overtime to protect the Biden-Harris White House from looking terrible amidst their failed response to Hurricane Helene.
And their White House Press Secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, has repeatedly struggled to weather tough questions from Fox News White House Correspondent Peter Doocy.
Doocy is one of the only reporters that did not sell his soul to the Democrat “news” media complex, refusing to frame questions to suggest that Democrats are amazing and how former President Trump is literally Hitler.
During a recent press conference, Doocy inquired about the values of the Biden-Harris administration due to their decision to dump $157 million down the drain in Lebanon, but blamed Congress on the failure to provide relief funding for North Carolina, where people suffered brutal devastation by Hurricane Helene.
“President Biden is fond of saying, ‘Show me your budget, and I will tell you what you value,’” Doocy began. “If he’s got money for people in Lebanon right now without Congress having to come back, what does it say about his values [if] there’s not enough money right now for people in North Carolina who need it?”
Jean-Pierre responded in a way that made it clear that she lacks the most basic understanding of how questions work, or what misinformation even means.
“Your whole premise of the question is misinformation, Sir!” snapped Jean-Pierre.
“I just mentioned $200 million to folks who are impacted in the area,” she added. “And I just shared with you that people are deciding not to–”
Doocy, understandably, appeared confused about how asking a question would be misinformation, considering that the objective is to garner an accurate answer.
Karine Jean-Pierre throws a massive temper tantrum
Doocy’s question was so straightforward that it threw Jean-Pierre right off the rails.
“No, the way you’re asking me the question is misinformation,” Jean-Pierre complained. “There is money that we are allocating to the impacted areas. And there’s money there to help people who truly need it.”
“There are survivors who need the funding, who need the funding, and it’s there,” she claimed.
Doocy’s interaction with Jean-Pierre immediately exposed the “misinformation” scam that Democrats like to run with, and how they just use that term to shut down conversation that doesn’t seem to benefit them.
“You can’t call a question that you don’t like ‘misinformation,’” Doocy fired back.
Towards the end of the brief back and forth with Doocy, Jean-Pierre ultimately admitted that he was right, pointing out that the federal government lacked the money to cover costs resulting from Hurricane Milton.
“I actually said we have the money available to help survivors of Hurricane Helene and also Hurricane Milton,” responded Jean-Pierre. “Now, there’s going to be a shortfall, right? Because we don’t know how bad Hurricane Milton is going to be. And so, we’re going to need additional funding.”
“That’s exactly what I just asked about, and you said it was misinformation,” Doocy argued.
But Jean-Pierre still refused to answer as to why President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris had no issue rallying together a massive amount of money to burn off in Lebanon, but were crying poor when calls came forth to help Americans in the United States.
“What you’re asking me is why Congress needs to come back and do their job,” Jean-Pierre snapped. “That’s what you’re asking me. Congress needs to come back and do their job and provide extra assistance, extra funding to disaster relief fund.”
“That’s what Congress needs to do, and we’re gonna continue to urge that. You may not want that, but that’s ok,” she whined as she closed her briefing book. “That’s what this President wants, and that’s what the Vice President wants.”
Jean-Pierre decided that she did not like the direction that the discussion moved in, and decided to cancel the rest of the briefing, storming out of the room.
