The mouthpieces for Joe Biden’s White House, Karine Jean-Pierre and Andrew Bates, were told they were not allowed to slam Republicans as “MAGA” members, but then did so anyway, according to a new report.
The Daily Mail explains the independent Office of Special Counsel said the two participated in actions “contrary” to official guidance on federal law when they used the “MAGA” moniker to slam Republicans.
It is the Hatch Act that prohibits federal employees from promoting a political ideology while being paid by taxpayers.
The violation happened only after Jean-Pierre already was warned against violating the law that is intended to prevent federal employees from using their positions to influence elections.
Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?
It was the OSC that told government officials last summer that “MAGA” and other related terms were “off-limits” because they were being seen as campaign-related slogans.
Jean-Pierre then, after, was found to be in violation of the law with her use of that term, the report said.
A White House official claimed the Democrats running the administration “take the law seriously,” and Jean-Pierre often cites the law when she refuses to answer questions about Biden that may be considered campaign-related.
But both Jean-Pierre and Bates used the word “MAGA” repeatedly to demonize Republicans.
“The complaint against the duo was filed by a conservative watchdog group called Protect the Public’s Trust, which is run by former Trump administration official Michael Chamberlain,” the report explained.
He told NBC News, “Apparently, nobody takes the Hatch Act very seriously, at least nobody that matters. Ms. Jean-Pierre cites it frequently to avoid tough questions, but when she and her deputy received the initial warning from OSC, they doubled down.”
A report at NBC confirmed Jean-Pierre and the White House had been warned about using the “MAGA” term, and continued to do it.
The OSC had delivered guidance over the summer that determined the descriptive were off-limits after Jean-Pierre blasted “mega MAGA Republicans” heading into the 2022 election.
Later, she continued using the term, with her condemnation of a “hardcore MAGA” budget, while Bates went after “MAGA tax welfare.”
The OSC, however, announced no punishment for the apparently willful violations, saying only it would watch for future infractions.
“According to a review by NBC News, Bates used the ‘MAGA’ acronym — referring to ‘MAGAnomics’ — as recently as Monday in a memo about Republican efforts to repeal Obamacare, also known as the Affordable Care Act, days after Trump said he was ‘seriously looking at alternatives,’” the report said.
IMPORTANT NOTE TO WND READERS: Shortly after Hamas terrorists fired over 5,000 rockets from Gaza into Israel on Oct. 7 and then proceeded to attack the Jewish state by land, sea and air – torturing, burning, beheading and murdering well over a thousand people, including women, children and infants, and wounding and abducting hundreds more – world reaction was, in its own way, almost equally shocking.
For after the biggest one-day mass slaughter of Jews since the Nazi Holocaust, what followed was an outpouring of celebratory demonstrations, unbridled Jew-hatred, deliriously gleeful support for Hamas and bitter condemnation of the nation of Israel. Not just in the Arab-Muslim world, but throughout the Western world as well, including all across America.
Why? What is behind the explosion of anti-Israel, anti-Jewish, pro-terror sentiment in the United States, where Israel has long been one of America’s closest friends and allies? Why are hordes of young “woke” LGBT demonstrators marching in support of Hamas – when Hamas wouldn’t think twice about binding and blindfolding them and throwing them off the roof of a tall building – as they routinely do in the Muslim world?
It turns out there’s one area of agreement that is so powerful, deep-seated and all-consuming that the vast differences between the deranged left and the murderous jihadists melt away into Kumbaya harmony.
All of this and much more is completely exposed in November’s issue of WND’s critically acclaimed monthly Whistleblower magazine, titled ISRAEL VS. GLOBAL JIHAD: How Jew-hatred, radical Islam and Leftism are pushing us toward World War III. Beyond a deeply insightful dive into why leftists are surging toward radical Islam – which hates and dreams of raping and butchering them – this Whistleblower issue includes fantastic articles by everyone from top Israeli analyst (and former Israel Defense Forces officer) Caroline Glick to Harvest Christian Fellowship’s Pastor Greg Laurie on the current war in Israel and biblical prophecies regarding the End Times … which he says are now upon us.
WHISTLEBLOWER is available in both the popular print edition and a state-of-the-art digital version, either single issues or discounted annual subscriptions.
