CBS reporter asks press secretary to explain Lyin' Biden's latest whopper. She can't.

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was asked to clear up some details about Joe Biden’s latest whopper of a lie. Last Friday he delivered the commencement address at the Naval Academy. He told a story never before heard and not mentioned in his autobiography. Biden told the midshipmen that he applied to the Naval Academy in 1965. That couldn’t possibly be true, though. Jean-Pierre’s response was cringe-worthy.

Here’s the story – Biden told the midshipmen about applying to the Naval Academy with a letter from then-Senator J. Caleb Boggs in 1965. The problem with that is Biden graduated from the University of Delaware in 1965. He went on to say that he didn’t plan to go to the Academy because he wanted to be a football star. The Naval Academy already had two – Roger Staubach and Joe Bellino – so he went to the University of Delaware. Right. Plus, during his college days Biden received several deferments to avoid serving in the Vietnam war. He received them because of childhood asthma. Clearly, something doesn’t add up.

I’m kinda surprised that it was CBS News White House correspondent Ed O’Keefe that questioned the details of Biden’s story. He’s normally lobbing softballs to either Biden or his press secretary. He asked if Biden was confused about the timeline of his story. Instead of delivering an answer that would cover for the president’s obvious whopper of a phony story, she punted. Karine Jean-Pierre said she didn’t hear the story. O’Keefe reminded her it was at the beginning of his speech and she continued to say she didn’t hear it. She said she’d have to look at it before commenting. Does Biden’s press secretary not even bother to listen to his speeches?

Karine Jean-Pierre claims she 'did not hear that part of the speech' when Biden falsely claimed he was 'appointed' to the Naval Academy in 1965

This is a softball nothing burger of a story. At worst they will come back and say he meant he applied for the class of 1965, not for entry in 1965.

But CBS News will point to it as evidence that they are “tough” on Biden.

It’s racist to ask hard questions to this spokesperson.

Trying to gently ease him out before he shows up naked for the next teleprompter session?

That’s her default position for any potentially embarrassing questions; she always pretends not to know anything.
Pretty soon, most will just presume it’s true, she doesn’t know anything, including how to lie and calmly paper over other lies. Jan Psaki has already turned her cell phones off. She doesn’t want to hear anymore begging or pleading from the White House Staff to come back ‘just for a two to three week period, till Kariin get’s her ‘sea legs’.”

She reads or tries to read the answers printed on the cards in front of her.

These answers come from the pre-approved questions that the administration is allowing to be asked.

She doesn’t even try to cover up the fact that she’s reading the answers which Btw.. She’s horrible at!

Can’t we just put Obama, Rice, Valjar, etc. back into the White House so we may end this embarrassing charade. Joe can sit to the side with an all-day sucker or magnet and iron-shaving doodle game. Must be complicated to force the words out through teleprompters, press secretary and big media fixers.

Why would they change? It works perfectly for both. Joe pretends to be president (a goal he could never achieve on his own) and they get to pull the strings. A third term they too couldn’t achieve on their own too.

Before long, she won’t talk at all. Just shrug her shoulders, sigh, and go to the next question.

I’m still waiting for a reporter to ask her whether it’s true that Biden has Alzheimer’s or some other form of dementia. Why don’t they just come out and say it!
