White House press secretary Jen Psaki said she was 'not going to get into' the bombshell July 23 phone call between President Biden and Afghan President Ashraf Ghani, where he implored the Afghan leader to 'change the perception' of the war with the Taliban.
Psaki refused to comment as Republicans tore into the call where Biden told Ghani to try and show the world they were beating the Taliban 'whether it is true or not.'
'I'm not going to get into private diplomatic conversations or leaked transcripts of phone calls,' the press secretary told reporters Wednesday.

Unless it's from President Trump.......
I have to believe that even fawning Psaki has had about enough of covering for dementia boy.
Would not be surprised seeing her resign in the near future.

Now that we have set a legal impeachment procedure precedent, that we impeach presidents for phone calls and implied pressures to take certain actions, it sounds like a no brainer that Biden should face impeachment, using the same criteria used in the Trump impeachment.
What kind of spokesperson consistently avoids the truth, insists on certain honest terms being censored (”stranded”), refuses to discuss important things in every press conference all year long, and claims “I’ll have to circle back to you on that?” for something each session.
Answer: A putridly bad one if you must know.
Trump gets impeached over a perfect phone call, yet Biden gets away with LYING to the American people and perpetrating a fraud all so he can look good and watch, nothing will happen..absolutely nothing
Psakistan is no friend of US.
YUP. That’s it. I am more ashamed even than mad.
Amazed every day how these people live with themselves. What kind of cognizant hoops do they have to go through to look at their mirror?
"'I need not tell you the perception around the world and in parts of Afghanistan, I believe, is that things are not going well in terms of the fight against the Taliban,' Biden said. 'And there is a need, whether it is true or not, there is a need to project a different picture.'"
"Look, I'm telling Americans everything is going great! This is supposed to be my victory! I have parades planned, damn it! Now start lying so people believe me!"
BIDEN: No, well, look, I, thank you. Look, close air support works only if there is a military strategy on the ground to support.
Biden just told him to lie his ass off and to come up with some “plan”. The Afghans say they desperately need air support. Biden counters with the above threat. When the rest of the transcript is released will we hear “look, I’m leaving in six hours (looking at his watch).....”?
Jan, hon,
How does it feel to get punked by your boss everyday ?
Does it make you feel like Biden’s biotch ?
I realize you hate the entire country, but you even hate yourself?
Wow.
Just wow.
I wonder if Jen already has a ‘bug out’ plan.
These leaks are coming from within the cabal that runs Biden. The longknives are out.
People didn’t leak transcripts of phone calls Trump was on. They leaked lies about calls Trump was on. Trump RELEASED the transcripts and showed the lies for what they were. In Trumps case the actual transcripts were exculpatory. In Biden’s case they are damning. So the media buried Trumps and will do the same with Bidens for the opposite reasons.
They impeached DJT for a phone call.
Turnabout is fair play.
(I know, I’m dreaming)
IF the GOP takes back the House in 2022 expect NOTHING TO HE DONE!
Feckless scum McCarthy is all talk.
If they were transparent like Trump, they would release the transcript like he did.
