Tune in on RSBN for Trump Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt's first White House Press Briefing on Tuesday, Jan. 28, 2025, at 1 pm EST.

"It is ironic that these modifications come shortly after President Biden declared that journalism is not a crime on World Press Freedom Day." On Friday, the White House released a new set of rules for press badges, also known as hard passes, that stated the recipient must act in a "professional manner" in order to keep their badge and told all who currently possess a pass must reply by July 31. The New York Post reports that the announcement said, "The White House expects that all hard pass holders will act in a professional manner while on White House grounds...

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre claimed on Tuesday that Americans are saving money on gasoline under President Joe Biden. The national average price for gasoline surpassed $5.00 per gallon this summer, even though prices at the pump are currently $3.85 per gallon, according to data from AAA, marking a nearly 62% increase since Biden assumed office at the beginning of last year. Jean-Pierre nevertheless contended that the recent decline is the fruit of the commander-in-chief’s work to decrease costs for Americans. “Gas prices have fallen by $1.15 from their peak, which was not too long ago,” she told reporters...

The White House briefing room erupted into chaos Wednesday as press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told a reporter she was being “incredibly rude” when asking about the president’s mental state. President Joe Biden appeared to call out for Republican Indiana Rep. Jackie Walorski on Wednesday while speaking at a White House conference on hunger, nutrition and health. Walorski was tragically killed in a car crash in early August. “And I want to thank all of you here, including bipartisan elected officials like Representative McGovern, Senator Braun, Senator Booker, Representative – Jackie, you here? Where’s Jackie?” Biden asked as he looked around....

Supposed to start at 2:30pm, I think they like making the media wait an hour because of their nasty questions

The US and its allies have new intelligence that suggests Russia could launch an attack on Ukraine even before the end of the Olympics, multiple sources familiar with the matter tell CNN.Previous assessments had suggested that Russia was unlikely to move into Ukraine until after the Olympics end on Feb. 20, US officials had told CNN in the past. The revelation of the new intelligence comes as administration officials have dramatically ramped up the urgency of their public warnings related to Ukraine in the past 24 hours.US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Friday that a Russian invasion of Ukraine...

US officials believe Russian President Vladimir Putin has decided to invade Ukraine and an attack could take place as soon as next week, according to a report out Friday. PBS foreign affairs correspondent Nick Schifrin tweeted that US officials believe Putin has communicated an invasion order to the Russian military and that Washington expects a “horrific, bloody” campaign.

S national security adviser Jake Sullivan warned Americans in Ukraine on Friday to leave within one to two days, spelling out what a Russian attack on the country could look like -- and that civilians could die. "Any American in Ukraine should leave as soon as possible, and in any event in the next 24 to 48 hours," Sullivan said. "We obviously cannot predict the future, we don't know exactly what is going to happen. But the risk is now high enough and the threat is now immediate enough that this is what prudence demands." "If a Russian attack on...

Presser happening now. Jake Sullivan discussing Russia and telling Americans to leave Ukraine

NEW - White House "COVID-19 Response Team" has suddenly scheduled a press briefing for today at 11 am EST.

White House press secretary Jen Psaki defended the Biden administration’s decision not to require coronavirus vaccines or negative COVID-19 tests for people illegally crossing the border to seek asylum, claiming they are “not intending to stay here for a lengthy period of time.” In recent days, thousands of migrants from Haiti and other countries have flooded the southern border seeking permanent asylum in the US. Many reached a processing bottleneck in Del Rio, Texas, last week, leaving over 12,000 migrants to camp under a bridge, sparking coronavirus and security threat concerns among local and state leaders. During Monday’s daily press...

White House press secretary Jen Psaki said she was 'not going to get into' the bombshell July 23 phone call between President Biden and Afghan President Ashraf Ghani, where he implored the Afghan leader to 'change the perception' of the war with the Taliban. Psaki refused to comment as Republicans tore into the call where Biden told Ghani to try and show the world they were beating the Taliban 'whether it is true or not.' 'I'm not going to get into private diplomatic conversations or leaked transcripts of phone calls,' the press secretary told reporters Wednesday.

Psaki Presser

Didn't see a thread for todays Presser. Here you go.

White House press secretary Jen Psaki was forced to cut her planned family vacation short, returning to work Monday as President Joe Biden delivered remarks on Afghanistan. She'll brief reporters Tuesday afternoon at 1:30, alongside National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, as the crisis continues to unfold. Psaki had planned to take this week off, with her automated out-of-office reply saying she would return on August 22, when reporters tried asking her questions about Afghanistan over the weekend. The Washington Post reported that Psaki had returned to the White House Monday to help manage the Afghanistan situation. The Post reported that...

White House press secretary Jen Psaki dismissed a question Tuesday about Fox News host and Daily Caller cofounder Tucker Carlson’s claims that the NSA is spying on him. Carlson made the assertions during Monday’s broadcast of “Tucker Carlson Tonight” — saying that the NSA was monitoring his communications in an effort to get his show taken off the air. Psaki was asked about Tucker’s claims when she spoke with reporters on Air Force One just hours later. “Tucker Carlson said that the NSA is spying on him. Is the administration aware of any espionage or listening efforts on US citizens...

White House press secretary Jen Psaki defended Tuesday the strength of the Southern border after two suspected terrorists were apprehended after crossing into the United States through Mexico. “First let me convey that these sets of incidents are very uncommon,” Psaki said when asked by Fox News reporter Peter Doocy about whether President Joe Biden was keeping the border safe.

I can’t believe this, but I guess we should soak it all up because this will probably not happen again for a bit. The liberal media actually placed pressure on White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki. It was a slew of issues. From COVID to Cuomo, Psaki was on her heels and it wasn’t just Fox News’ Peter Doocy doing all the work this time. Doocy shut down Psaki over the growing border crisis. Migrants testing positive for COVID are being released, placing border towns and localities at risk. The Fox News reporter noted that these migrants have an infection...
