Jen Psaki Hates You
American Mind ^ | 10/20/2021 | Spencer Klavan

Posted on 10/21/2021 6:45:04 AM PDT by markomalley

The White House press secretary is a perfect representative of our spiteful ruling class.

Let us now praise Jennifer Rene Psaki—English major, sorority girl, mother of two. Let us praise her seemingly endless supply of monochrome crew-neck blouses and pencil skirts, the way she peels her mask off after striding to the lectern. Jen Psaki has been briefed by her 11 staffers; she has had her coffee (and her bagel, if it’s Wednesday); she is freshly armed with the latest talking points and she is not going to take any of your guff today. 

Jen communicates just how on top of things she is by nodding ceaselessly throughout every question, interjecting an “uh-huh” or a “yep” to show she has not been caught off guard since the last clause of the reporter’s sentence. This is a patented bobblehead technique she perfected as a commentator at CNN in between the Obama and Biden Administrations. What she is saying or listening to is less important than what she is communicating with her demeanor at all times: that she is serious, that she is informed, that she is the adult in the room. 

We have all met someone who behaves like this: someone who has done the homework and wants you to know it. Someone whose politeness is so aggressive that it can only be read as a kind of challenge. Jen Psaki dares you to find her off-putting. Why would you? She is smiling. She even had a joke written down that she made at the appropriate juncture. See? It says “laughing time” right here in the schedule from 5:01 to 5:03 PM. 

Then laughing time is over, and it is time for the lies and the jabs and the polite little smirks. Jen Psaki is frankly disappointed that you would stoop so low as to question Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg’s right to paternity leave during a supply chain “crisis.” It’s not really a crisis, anyway: “people have more money, expendable resources, more people are working than they were a year ago.” The economy is getting built back better, says Jen, and our ports runneth over. What are you, some kind of Peloton slut who can’t wait five extra months for your new treadmill

This is what Trump’s critics meant when they said we needed to restore “civility” to the White House: they meant we need the right kind of disdain for the right kinds of people, expressed in the right kinds of ways. Gone are the mean tweets, the off-color jokes, the rough pugilism. Now instead we have Jen Psaki, sneering avatar of an aristocracy that regards working Americans as less than dirt. People are straining to put food on the table and gas in their cars; they increasingly fail to see the point in going to work at all. Psaki’s response is that of the anointed class she represents: shut up and take it. 

We are ruled over by a cabal of solipsists who feel outraged that the regressive pigs in flyover country express any opinions at all—about the fruits of their labor, about the security of their nation, about the health of their bodies. Their response is that we should “lower expectations” for affordable food, “welcome competition” from a rapidly arming China, and “follow the advice of health experts” on pain of unemployment.  

Who can forget the treacly grin with which Psaki invited us to “stay tuned” for Biden’s forthcoming vaccine decree? She delights in her role, which is to act out the revenge fantasies of all who felt wounded in 2016 by the mere suggestion that their virtue is less than immaculate. We have to reckon with the fact that Psaki, loathsome though she may be, is doing her job exactly as intended. Her affronts are outrageous only to the people who already hate her: from her target audience they elicit shouts of “YAS Kween” and “drag him!” She is not slipping up when she insults your intelligence and riles up your countrymen against you, when she lies unblinkingly out in the open and defies you to do anything about it. That is her job, and she is good at it. She is doing exactly what she was put there to do.

No one with a spine should take instruction on “civility” from such a feckless cretin or anyone who enjoys her act. If we are to re-learn civic excellence, it will not be from a movement whose moral framework consists of slander and self-satisfaction. Remember that in 2022 and 2024 when they call you a fascist or a bigot or a domestic terrorist or whatever: these are people who think Jen Psaki is a good person. Their opinion about your morals literally doesn’t matter at all.

She’s a condescending liberal liar, very common in today’s world. She shows me nothing that is stand out, just a common Leftist.

Chucky Doll is a national embarrassment. Arrogantly lying shamelessly to the US people daily.

Both Zuck and Psuck have utterly bland generic faces.

It’s as if an alien species wanted infiltrators to look totally average and unremarkable...

She's neither as pretty, nor as smart as Harf...

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki's recent explanations on the country's many crises are getting more bizarre.

"As part of THE GREAT RESET, we'll be virtue signaling ahead of advancing foreign policy objectives.
Pres Biden will be explaining the mysteries of ze and zir, as well as LGBTQI+, to the Talban and others.

I see sections of her press conferences on youtube. She seems disrespectful, aloof and ignorant. She also seems to be trying to cover a “fiddling while Rome burns” attitude.

I have worked alongside those like Psaki and Harff. Zealots who believe they are so much smarter than everyone else. Their disdain for their “inferiors” drips from their pores and is impossible to hide. They are never wrong and should never be challenged.

Not that I should be surprised at their efforts to insult the intelligence of the American people (or that the MSM reinforces their lies and suggests that we are all just crazy)… but it is stunning to me that they are trying to run with the theme that people have so much money now, that the inflationary increases and supply chain shortages are just something we can all take in stride, smiling.

So I am anxious to hear what Slow Joe has to share in his “town hall” tonight, and then how will the Chuck Todd and George Stephanopoulous types characterize all of the success and prosperity we are witnessing, on Sunday.

I still want to see her 4 grade results that allowed her to pass to 5th grade.

By 2023 she will be a trusted political contributor on CNN.

She has a horrible job, and probably drinks her supper and lunch.

Still don’t like her, but I do not envy her one bit.

Why would you even spend one second of your life watching this kind of crap.
