The Biden administration’s communications team has reportedly asked reporters ahead of time about their questions for White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki.

According to a Daily Beast, one reporter discussed the issue during a Zoom call with the White House Correspondents' Association and was told to “push back against requests by the White House press team to learn of questions in advance, or simply to not respond to the Biden team’s inquiries.”

No surprise. Prevents tough questions from Peter Doocy. No problem with the creampuff questions from other reporters.

I wonder if the press will soon regret helping him get to the White House.

So, the dumb*sses in the White House are afraid of the simpleton journalism-major grade kiss ass questions currently being presented to them?

Think of just how inept these clowns (both sides) are.

And our GOP ‘leaders’ still cannot conquer this?

We need some leadership by adults.

Stat!

Now see, this is yet -another- Trump screw up. He should have thought to have Kayleigh Mcenany do that! All we had to do all alog was get the questions in advance... and then just say “we’ll circle back to that”. /s

So she won’t short circuit like what Kirk did to the Landru computer at the end of the TOS episode “Return of the Archons”.

Just the questions? Shouldn’t they ask the reporters for the answers too?

Perhaps finding someone with a functioning brain might help? This one spent too much time LYING for Obozo & Clinton at State and is fresh out of new ones.

soon they will drop access to anyone who doesn’t give questions in advance

and look for

“we’ll circle back to that later” to become a staple answer that never gets circled back to

And the Headlines from every one of these Presstitutes should have been something like:

“I wonder if the press will soon regret helping him get to the White House.”

The press are not journalists. They don’t see their job as reporting the news or writing balanced commentary. Their job is to be cheerleaders for The Great Reset. They are in hog heaven.

I’m sure the propaganda arm of the democrat party is all to happy to provide questions in advance...

Why not? They’re all on the same team.

Step two? Biden’s team will write the questions for ‘reporters’ to ask... and tell them how to ask...
