More screaming and more political theater coming from the new fresh journalists trying to make a name for themselves, no thanks. No one misses them. Once a month holding a briefing is good enough.

The previous defeat guy gave up on the press conferences. Bad for his blood pressure.

For most Americans actually and it seems like Psaki is having her own blood pressure problems with Doocy. Now she’s getting it. Lol

How nice it is to have a press secretary who actually holds press conferences and is grounded in basic facts. the fact that she doesn’t have to cover for a habitual liar and a moron is the cherry on the cake.

Yea some asked about the status of the White House cat. Hard hitting journalists speaking truth to power.

It is refreshing to have a Pres with dogs and a cat. Those of us with pets in our family appreciate it. Mr. Trump and his family didn't know the love and joy a couple of good doggies bring. It would have done them a world of good I think. The current President's dramas with his shelter dog are very much the same sorts of dramas those of use who adopt shelter pets often face socializing them with humans and our other pets. So yes some of us are interested not just in the world around us but in something as seemingly minor as how the Presidents dogs are doing and can they get along with what we joking call in our home a "big mean cat". lol.

funny you would mention such a thing,

 “I think you’re great and incredible, how much do you agree?”

CNN’s Brian Stelter Draws Criticism for Asking Jen Psaki: ‘What Does the Press Get Wrong’ Covering Biden? 

So basically, what questions should we NOT ask you as to not cause any problems for you.

oh no, silence is great! nothing shows "I care and thank you for your sacrifice" than....total and complete silence.

White House press secretary Jen Psaki says World War II veterans should not consider silence by President Biden on D-Day as a slight on their service.

Nice to hear that the current White House is not continuing 45's assaults on a free, for-profit press. But then Biden and team seem committed to the democratic principles the republic is built on, not undermining them like 45 did in his and his admin's quest to make the US more like Russia or China.

I have not heard 'fake news' being used by this WH. I have only read or heard 'fake news' used by far right media (arguably the biggest creators of fake news on the planet and by 45 followers, they use it pretty consistently whenever an article with opinions different from theirs is published.

But rhen the 45 crowd have long attacked democracy and favored authoritarianism instead, especially authoritarianism of the Russian variety. See "Muh Russia' posters

Yeah, that’s a lousy question. It’s not as clearly bootlick as OAN was, but it’s bad. The difference is that reasonable people recognise that that was a bad question. Trump cultists still insist that brown-nose OAN is a real news organisation.

Unfortunately Rupert Murdoch's Tucker, Hannity etal, have used Biden's dogs in Murdoch's never ending assaults on Biden. and anyone else who is not far right and a follower of 45.

Murdoch knows, his audiences understand stories about dogs, Murdoch knows that his cable news entertainment shows would lose viewers if they presented stories with anything more complex than dog bites security officer. Murdoch and the others in far right media have dumbed down reporting to appeal to their poorly educated base, Murdoch like his boy Trump knows how successful televangelists have been at pushing big lies on the poorly educated and use the same tactics.

Roughly 72 million American voters fall into the easily manipulated audience. Murdoch/Trump etal, continue to get rich off the far right base that is so easily duped.

As much as I hate her, she is pretty good at not answering questions directly.

White House briefing room crammed again? Never mind.

Who knows the room has not been a powerful yet questionable source of misinformation?

The virus spread is taking a short rest, who knows when it will be revived again in different variant form?

Just look at what has been happening in UK in the past 15 months..

She’s definitely good at dodging, I’ll give her credit on that one all day long.
