White House deputy press secretary Andrew Bates found himself in hot water Wednesday after sharing a video from an account mocking President Joe Biden.
Bates shared a video of White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre that had been posted by Greg Price, the senior digital strategist at XStrategies LLC and a former Daily Caller social media coordinator. Before Bates shared the clip, Price had temporarily changed his account name to “Joe Biden Showered With His Daughter,” causing the moniker to show up under Bates’ post.
Bates also retweeted Price’s original tweet containing the video, apparently without noticing Price’s account name.
In the video from Thursday’s press briefing, Jean-Pierre lamented the alleged “bad faith attacks” against Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg over his handling of the train derailment and toxic chemical spill in East Palestine, Ohio.

“There’s been a lot of bad faith attacks on Secretary Buttigieg. If you remember Elaine Chao. She was the head of the Department of Transportation and when there were these types of chemical spills, nobody was calling for her to be fired,” Jean-Pierre said.
Buttigieg faced widespread scrutiny for delaying his public response to the crisis for 10 days. He visited the site in East Palestine on Thursday, exactly twenty days after the Feb. 3 derailment.
The Transportation Secretary said in a Tuesday interview that he “could’ve spoken out sooner” in the aftermath of the crisis.
“Our department was on the ground within hours, helping with the response and the investigation,” he said. “Again, I respect the separate role of the [National Transportation Safety Board]. But we have been on the ground literally from day one to make sure that we’re doing our part to support. I do think it’s important to speak out about that, and I could have spoken sooner, and I’m making sure that we are focused on the actions that are gonna make a difference.”
The most evil president ever.
Amazing how people are told exactly what he is and those who support him and yet willfully deny the utter deviancy on display.
Oops 😬
Wanna Get Away?
Well played.
Southwest!
“If you remember Elaine Chao. She was the head of the Department of Transportation and when there were these types of chemical spills, nobody was calling for her to be fired...”
Did Elaine Chao also make some lame attempt to blame them on the previous president before any investigation as to the cause had been completed?
Brilliant.
Stupid is as stupid does as Democrats.
Yep- my former neighbor admitted she was voting for the ‘my father, Joe Biden, took inappropriate showers with me when I was a child’ ‘I have had several aneurisms and several surgeries and am probably missing part of my brain’ ‘my son is in bed with Ukraine and China’ Joe Biden because she hated Trump.
Never could explain why she hated Donald Trump - she is a single mom and was doing great financially under his Presidency. She is suffering now with the overall price increases and loss of business but at least ‘orange man bad’ isn’t in office.
Really have to turn off my inner anger at the so-called Christians who I know voted for this.
The administration is full of mentally ill people. Seriously, a gay guy who steals luggage to wear stolen dresses?
No mind of her own, just going with the flow of the people she lets do all her thinking for her.
Funny, they say they don't want to make this tragedy political, then they immediately make it political. All these hypocrites are the same, Prince Harry and Meghan want their privacy, but then go on a world tour. Can't make this stuff up, it can only be mocked. KJP is so dumb she has the same answer for everything, when asked about Biden's showers with underage family members she will retort; "President Biden takes these matters very seriously".
Buttiboy’s press secretary was the best. Please do not talk to me on camera, too aggressive. If you only had one job!
Did Elaine Chaw have a Chernobyl size environmental disaster?
Life here and abroad will have to get worse before they want Trump back again.
No matter how bad things get, the MSM will just convince people that everything is fine.
