White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, amid fielding questions about former President Joe Biden’s cancer announcement and the economy on Monday morning, had another question to answer: “What does President Trump mean when he says that Taylor Swift is no longer ‘hot?'” The question, from Fox News reporter Peter Doocy, drew a few audible chuckles from those inside the press briefing room, including from Leavitt. But Leavitt said the president’s comment only applies to her political views, not whether she is attractive or not. “Look, he is speaking about Taylor Swift’s political views and how perhaps it has impacted the...

FOX News reporter Peter Doocy asked Karoline Leavitt at Tuesday's White House briefing to confirm that no one in the administration took short positions on the stock market ahead of the drastic collapse over the past two days.

During a press briefing on Tuesday, Fox News senior White House correspondent Peter Doocy asked Jean-Pierre, "How many more assassination attempts on Donald Trump until the president and vice president and you pick a different word to describe Trump, other than ‘threat?’" snip "In asking a question about the admin's use of the word ‘threat’ to describe Trump, KJP accuses Doocy of being ‘dangerous’ for asking the question!" she wrote.

Yesterday Fox News' Peter Doocy let the White House's John Kirby know that Biden's support for Israel no longer appears to be "unwavering." Kirby tried to spin his way out of the question but yes, Biden's support for Israel has wavered: Also yesterday, Kirby made it clear that the Biden administration doesn't support independence for Taiwan: KIRBY: "We don't support independence for Taiwan." pic.twitter.com/pLPtp8hKix — RNC Research (@RNCResearch) April 4, 2024 It's too bad the United States can't remain independent from the Biden administration, but here we are. Add it all up and Dana Loesch reminded us Team Biden's set...

Peter Doocy has been front and center asking Karine Jean-Pierre questions she'd rather not answer from the very beginning. He appears tireless in his efforts to finally force her to tell the truth. Seems though even he has a 'breaking' point. Watch this: Doocy is fed up: "They released an illegal immigrant from Honduras who is charged with sexually assaulting a Virginia minor and production of sexual abuse material .... You guys have no idea what kind of people are coming into this country." pic.twitter.com/jUdI3TQQ3O — Citizen Free Press (@CitizenFreePres) January 22, 2024 Fed up is a nice way of...

A high-ranking Republican in the House of Representatives said he's no longer making appearances "Fox & Friends" because one of its hosts has been critical of the GOP's investigation into President Joe Biden. Republican Rep. James Comer, the chair of the House Oversight Committee, made the comments Tuesday evening in an interview with Newsmax's Eric Bolling after the host mentioned his "concern is when the media, especially the conservative media, starts siding with the Bidens." Bolling specifically highlighted a comment made by Doocy on the show Monday morning where he mentioned his skepticism regarding allegations from Comer and the Republican...

Where is Hunter Biden? That’s the burning question at the moment, especially after his bizarre press conference where he declined to testify before Congress. Now, it’s likely he’ll be held in contempt. After all, Democrats have consistently maintained that ignoring a Congressional subpoena is an offense worthy of jail time. ... The good news, courtesy of Fox News reporter Peter Doocy, is that we now know Hunter Biden’s whereabouts: he’s at the White House. This revelation should make it easier for Republicans to have him arrested. Could we see the feds raiding the White House to apprehend an actual criminal,...

President Joe Biden’s handlers have become infamous among the White House press corps and beyond for, among other things, the aggressive way they usher reporters away from Biden in order to shield him from uncomfortable questions and embarrassment. We saw this frequently during his 2020 basement campaign for president, most notably after he picked Kamala Harris to be his running mate. During that period of time, members of the news media were literally herded away from Biden like farm animals, so much so that the yelling at them to leave the room even left Harris of all people looking tense...

WASHINGTON — President Biden insisted Wednesday that he “never talked business with anybody” after his son Hunter’s former business partner Devon Archer told Congress last week that he was on speakerphone during roughly 20 business meetings and even met his son’s foreign patrons at in-person events. “There’s this testimony now where one of your son’s former business associates is claiming that you were on speakerphone a lot with them, talking business,” Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy told Biden after a wind-power event in New Mexico.

Earlier today, in our post on Justin Jones using the Ralph Yarl shooting to racebait on MSNBC, we included this tweet wondering if someone could ask Jones to name the victims of the Covenant shooting, the same Covenant shooting that Jones spearheaded a raucous protest over in the name of caring about gun violence victims but with the actual purpose of getting a national media platform: Can someone confront this grifter to name the six Christians that were slaughtered? — Poliwatch (@poliwatching) April 19, 2023 Justin Jones is praying that no one actually asks him about that, because he’ll come...

Peter Doocy GRILLS John Kirby after new report admits intelligence disaster in Afghanistan withdrawal: "Who's going to get fired over this?!"KIRBY: "The purpose of it is not accountability."(Video of the exchange in the link below) https://twitter.com/bennyjohnson/status/1644054873149779968

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was stumped and resorted to talking points when Peter Doocy asked her about gas price fluctuations under Joe Biden. “You’ve said the President was responsible for gas prices coming down. Is [he] responsible for gas prices going up?” Doocy asked Karine Jean-Pierre.

It’s not hyperbolic to suggest that the vicious political war Joe Biden is currently waging against who he calls “MAGA Republicans” (aka “deplorables”) is one of the most un-American tactics ever put on display by a President against his own people in the history of American politics.At the core of Biden’s complaints about “MAGA Republicans” is the belief among many of them that the 2020 presidential election wasn’t decided fairly, that deception and underhanded tactics were involved. Further, Biden says he is concerned that some so-called “election deniers” might go and get themselves elected, and then our democracy will really...

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre refused to discuss a 2018 voicemail from President Biden that was recovered from a laptop that belonged to his son Hunter — further undermining Biden’s claim that he never discussed foreign business deals with his son. “Why is there a voicemail of the president talking to his son about his overseas business dealings if the president has said he’s never spoken to his son about his overseas business dealings?” Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy asked Jean-Pierre at her regular briefing Tuesday. “Well, first I’ll say that what the president said stands. So if he...

And when do we start getting answers to real questions? The other day Joe Biden mindlessly held up a note card which gave him instructions on what to do during an event. It is a stark warning to the country that the President of the United States does not have the mental capacity to conduct his duties of office. The staff has to instruct the President to enter a room? The President needs to be instructed to sit down? Seriously? This is not a new phenomenon. Jen Psaki's ridiculous argument last January was quite telling but it was overlooked. Biden...

President Biden’s new White House press secretary has previously claimed the 2016 presidential election was "stolen" from Hillary Clinton and that Georgia Republican Gov. Brian Kemp "stole" the 2018 gubernatorial election from Stacey Abrams. "Stolen emails, stolen drone, stolen election .....welcome to the world of #unpresidented Trump," Karine Jean-Pierre tweeted after former President Donald Trump's 2016 presidential win, repeating Clinton's claims that Trump was illegitimately elected.

Speaking to reporters from the briefing room Monday afternoon, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre struggled to justify President Joe Biden's invocation of the Defense Production Act to build solar panels. Jean-Pierre justified Biden's use of the DPA by falsely claiming there is a current electricity shortage that solar panels can help alleviate. Jean-Pierre was also asked about the benefit of the move to the Chinese Communist Party. Given the DPA is reserved for times of war and true emergencies, Jean-Pierre's explanation shows Biden is using the extreme measure to push the left's climate change agenda and forced transition away...

As gas prices soar across the country, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre insists that President Joe Biden is committed to transitioning away from fossil fuels. Fox News’ Peter Doocy asked why Biden is not trying to get domestic companies to drill for more oil in the U.S. Jean-Pierre noted that the country is still seeing its “highest levels of domestic production,” but part of the higher prices is a result of decreased refinery capacity in the country. Still, Doocy asked, “Why not drill more here in the U.S., though?” “We don’t need to do that. What we need them...

No search results Former White House Press Secretary and future Peacock host Jen Psaki joined the University of Chicago’s Institute of Politics (IOP) Wednesday for her first post-Team Biden interview and dished on her affinity for Peter Doocy, threats to her family (and not expressing concern for what Supreme Court justices have faced), some of her mistakes, and how a Hillary Clinton administration press office might have had less on-camera briefings. And during the Q&A portion, Psaki spared with a conservative student from the venerable Chicago Thinker over her encouragement of protests against the justices. IOP faculty members and far-left...
