Things continue to go less than well for White House Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre as the Biden-Harris Administration winds down its final days, with that taking the form during a White House press briefing of KJP losing it when a CNN reporter asked about Biden’s lies to the American people with his pardon of his son, Hunter Biden.
So, when Lee asked, “Can you explain it in a way that’s understandable?” KJP fired back, getting insulting, “I won’t — I can’t speak to you understanding the question or not or my answer or not on this.
I don’t have anything else to say. I’m not going to relitigate this. I did it on Monday for 30 minutes, I went back and forth, I laid it out, I said, please read the president’s really comprehensive
statement on this and I even said, the last paragraph of that statement, he talks directly to the American people and that’s how I answered that question.”
Lee then asked again, “Can you acknowledge that it may have been a mistake by the president, you to say multiple times unequivocally that he will not pardon his son?” She snapped back, “The president laid out in that statement what changed, why his mind changed,
how he wrestled with this decision. The president laid that out. I don’t have anything else to add.”
Lee noted that the explanation wasn’t understandable, telling her, “He said, in part, I believe in the justice system, but as I have wrestled with this,
I also believe raw politics has affected this process and it led to a miscarriage of justice.’ Just to understand that sentence, I think it’s important, it’s assured that the president believes in the justice system, except in some cases?”
KJP lost it. She snapped, “He believes in the justice system. He believes the facts are The facts are. Obviously, I talked about the gun charges. What legal experts have said, former prosecutors have all agreed virtually no one would be criminally prosecuted for underlying factors of Hunter’s case.
I talk about the gun charges. I talked about the taxes, the tax cases. And there are other factors here. What Republicans have said as they weren’t going to let up. I talked about the upcoming sentencing and
what Hunter and his family had been through. I talked about the appointees by the incoming president on law enforcement positions, and he wrestled with it. He did.”
