Top House Republican demands Psaki apologize over 'disgraceful' Space Force quip

The House Armed Services Committee's top Republican is calling on White House press secretary Jen Psaki to “immediately apologize” for her response to a Space Force question in Tuesday’s briefing.

“It’s concerning to see the Biden administration’s press secretary blatantly diminish an entire branch of our military as the punchline of a joke, which I’m sure China would find funny,” said Rep. Mike Rogers (R-Ala.).

**SNIP**

At Tuesday's briefing, Psaki was asked if Biden had made any decisions on the future of the Space Force, which was established by Congress in December 2019 with support from the Trump administration.

“Wow. Space Force. It’s the plane of today,” Psaki responded, seemingly comparing the question to an earlier one about the color scheme of Air Force One. “It is an interesting question. I am happy to check with our Space Force point of contact. I’m not sure who that is. I will find out and see if we have any update on that.”

Rep. Michael Waltz (R-Fla.) also slammed the White House for Psaki's comments on the Space Force, which Waltz said was established to protect national security and economic space missions from Chinese threats.

"This is just another example of the Biden administration not taking China seriously while demeaning the incredible work of Space Force personnel," said Waltz, who is a founding member of the House Space Force Caucus.

After the angry reactions, Psaki later tweeted: "We look forward to the continuing work of Space Force and invite the members of the team to come visit us in the briefing room anytime to share an update on their important work."

This woman is quite possibly the most poorly prepared press secretary of all time. After watching how Sarah Huckabee Sanders and Kayleigh McEnany were always prepared and anticipating of “gotcha” questions, watching this pathetic excuse for a quota hire is almost painful.

They send her the questions ahead of time and she STILL can’t answer them? “We’ll circle back to that”.

What a joke.

This just reveals the LeFT’s mindset regarding the tools of space warfare. It scares them. Why?

PSAKI-—ANOTHER BIDEN FLOP——She gets the MSM’s questions in advance and still cant answer them.

A hilarious video of Psaki is making the rounds-——telling journos over and over “I’ll circle back on that.”

When we start losing satellites to China, I wonder if they’ll still be laughing.

The Democrats probably made fun of the Air Force when it was new.

She was a deer-in-the-headlights when that question was asked. She had NO CLUE what the Space Force is, it’s role in National Security, in fact world security! This election not only brought us an Alzheimer patient for President, but also a real air-head for press secretary. Long 4 years ahead my friends !

By now, everyone knows Psaki is an airhead. Soon she will become a byword for idiot.

Psaki is such a simple thing. MSM thinks she’s brilliant. Another example of nastiness being mistaken for intelligence.
