Top aides to Biden secretly hatched a plan this past fall to replace White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre by recruiting outside allies to nudge her out the door ...

The diversity hire is an international embarrassment.

Ain’t Affirmative Action wonderful.
I can't wait until KJP says "Turn Page" out loud.
Live by DEI, DIE by DEI...................
They need that scrub brush on her head to clean up pedo Joe’s droppings. Nothing else works as well.
Remember - salute the marines in his ear ? - then Joe did not salute.
Leave her alone! She’s a great liar.
Isn’t everyone sick and tired of this ‘intimidation’ by now?
She's a terrible liar.
Jen Psaki was a great liar.
Just lol.
She gives the White House press room that dusty village in Cameroon vibe.
Not sure. Gonna circle back to that later.
The golliwog survives.
This is good.
Gotta keep reminding the Rubes just how ridiculous this “administration” is.
That's why they have John Kirby.
Wanna bet she ends up at MSLSD when biden is finished acting like a President?
