Karine Jean-Pierre tells Peter Doocy to bring down 'the dramatics' when pressed on bizarre claim illegal immigration is down 90% - as data show 13,000 a DAY could cross the southern border when Title 42 ends

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre got in a tense exchange at Tuesday's daily press briefing when she was asked to defend a claim that illegal immigration had dropped 90 per cent.

Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy put the question to her, on a day when she also shut down a reporter's question about why President Joe Biden hadn't acknowledged his seventh grandchild amid a Hunter Biden custody dispute.

'You said yesterday that when it comes to illegal migration, you've seen it come down by more than 90%. Where did that number come from?' Doocy asked her.

He tried to cite an increase in migration, as reported by Customs and Border Protection.

'I hear you, I'm about to answer, she told him amid cross talk.

'If the dramatics would come down just a little bit,' she admonished him, before telling him: 'I'm going to answer.'

'What's dramatic about asking a question?' he asked her.

Then Jean-Pierre indicated that she was referencing a particular program at her Monday briefing.

'So I was speaking to the parolee program. As you know, the President put in place a parolee program to deal with to deal with certain countries on on ways that we can limit illegal migration. And we have seen the data has shown us that is gone down by more than a percent. That was what I was speaking to,' she said.

Black lesbian immigrant. That’s KJP’s resume.

Who could possibly be more qualified, for her current position or almost any other position? She's (1) black, (2) lesbian, and (3) an immigrant. She's perfect.

The cardinal rule of being a conman is to never give up the lie under any circumstances. No matter how absurd and unbelievable the lie is, never ever admit you’re lying.

Oh, you're right, of course! How could I forget? She can't be perfect unless she also claims to be transsexual! Then she could sue anyone who dared to fire her or failed to hire her for being motivated solely by sexism, racism, xenophobia, homophobia, and transphobia. She'd be fully protected!

The truth about the open borders is the Dems are importing voters who will vote for them.

Lucky for KJP the bimbos and pretentious ‘men’ of the MSM are too stupid, corrupt or gullible to catch her ‘misdirections’... AKA ‘lies’...

It is impossible to find a good “man” who is a journalist or reporter in the “mainstream”...THEY’VE ALL BEEN REPLACED WITH UNSIGHTLY, RAVING LUNATICS who call themselves WOMEN. UGH!!!

Reporters used to come from the working class... now they’re they’re the sons and daughters of wealth.

It would be fine if they were reporting on expensive watches or lavish vacations - but they put these gullible pampered types into positions where they lack the human skills of knowing when a person is being buttered up or when someone is lying. One look at the reporting today and it’s easy to see why the profession is dying

YES, and the saddest part is that those involved don’t seem to understand what is happening to THEM.

No introspection, no foresight and no willingness to search for the truth.

It’s a pity.
