FNC's Peter Doocy Presses WH's Jen Psaki On Infrastructure Bill: Why Is Only 5% Going To Roads And Bridges?

FNC White House correspondent Peter Doocy asked the White House press secretary on Thursday about some details of the $2.6 trillion infrastructure spending bill proposed by the Biden administration.

Q: And one of the most colorful examples that the President used yesterday -- he asked if people remembered a bridge going down. But only 5 percent of the spending in this package goes towards roads and bridges, and I'm curious why that number is so low in something that is being sold as an infrastructure package.

MS. PSAKI: We're actually selling it as a once-in-a-century or once-in-a-generation investment in partly our infrastructure, but partly industries of the future, American workers in the workforce.

And there are areas like broadband, which maybe is not a physical bridge, but one third of the country doesn't have access to broadband. So that impacts workers -- workers who have been working from home; kids who are trying to learn at home; parts of the country where they can't have jobs where they're working remotely.

We feel that that is an area where we can improve, expand access, and as a result, be more competitive with the country -- with other countries, I should say.

that much? Congress gets 60% kickback;
and 15% for the BIG GUY.
20% for the prostitutes, drugs, run by you know who,
and 5% is the cut for the FIB and DO”J” (quid pro quo;
which would even be upheld in the Roberts-Malta Court.

“Why Is Only 5% Going To Roads And Bridges?”

The Party forbids questions.

Looks like facebookinstagramtwiter will have to turn him into a nonperson.

Steve Doocy’s boy Peter is becoming a good reporter.
I’ll bet Jen Psaki is beginning to see him in her dreams;
“He’s always chasing me down some corridor in the White House with another question about the President. Last night, he just about caught me!”

MS. PSAKI: We're actually selling it as a once-in-a-century or once-in-a-generation investment in partly our infrastructure, but partly industries of the future, American workers in the workforce.

The use of "Investment" is the tip off here.It is 1000 percent impossible for the government to do that. Translation...take over!
