White House Chief Propagandist Gets Testy With Reporters Asking About Biden’s ‘GarageGate’ Documents (Video)
Karine Jean-Pierre appears to have lied to reporters and she wasn’t very happy that they called her out on it.
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre is clearly starting to get annoyed with reporters continuing to ask questions about the four batches of classified documents found in President Biden’s Delaware home, his garage, and at a think tank office at the University of Pennsylvania.
She had insisted on Friday that the search for classified documents had been complete, but over the long weekend, it was disclosed that another batch of documents was found in Biden’s home.
So, was Jean-Pierre lying on Friday, or is she being kept out of the loop and being fed B.S. to take to reporters?
Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?
Day after day, she has been trying to stick to the talking points and insist that Biden is cooperating with the Department of Justice after the initial batch of documents were found at UPenn by Biden’s lawyers just before the midterms in November.
But the White House Press Pool continues to grill her on it — and it’s not just Peter Doocy and a handful of reporters from right-leaning outlets.
On Wednesday, the WH Press Sec insisted that she cannot answer questions about an “ongoing investigation” now that the matter has been referred to a Special Counsel. Convenient.
Q: “The Justice Department has not told the White House that it cannot talk about the facts underlying the Special Counsel investigation into classified documents…why can’t you speak about the underlying facts?”

That response quickly came around to bite her…
When asked if it was appropriate for Biden to comment on an “ongoing DOJ investigation” on “60 Minutes” saying that Trump was “irresponsible” for holding onto classified documents when we know know that he was also in possession of classified documents.

I hope all that ducking and weaving counts as cardio!
"So to be clear, from this point on are you not going to be taking questions about the classified documents?"

KJP has refused to give any real answers and just refers reporters to the DOJ and WH Counsel — but they won’t comment on an ongoing investigation, either.
It’s been like this for days.
Here’s what happened on Tuesday:

NBC News' Peter Alexander repeatedly presses Karine Jean-Pierre about the White House claiming that Republicans are "faking outrage" over Biden's classified document scandal.
"Why shouldn't Americans be upset about documents found in a garage?" he asks.
She can't answer. pic.twitter.com/zTdd3SkkmN

Newsmax’s James Rosen asks if she’s sorry for lying to the media in the White House Briefing Room.

He later went on the air to give some background.
Fox News White House Correspondent Peter Doocy has been consistently grilling Jean-Pierre since the story broke.
"On these documents, how could anyone be that irresponsible? Isn't that what this president says about mishandling classified documents?"

Reporter: “He had a closet with classified information in it that they found. How did it get there?"
Karine Jean-Pierre: “[Biden] was surprised that the records were there.”
Reporter: “But they were there."

Bet they wish they hadn’t made such a big deal about how uniquely awful Trump was with his handling of the documents that he had the authority to declassify as President.
This GarageGate scandal doesn’t look good on Biden, but it’s also shining a spotlight onto how bad this White House Press Secretary is at her job.
This is what you get when you hire a MoveOn.org hack to just read talking points out of a binder.
