WH Reporters So Fed Up with Press Sec Even Ones Who Personally Like Her Are Speaking Out

When even the White House press corps notices, you know there’s a problem.

The only exception is Fox News Peter Doocy. “journalists” who’ve spent two years pretending to cover President Joe Biden administration had seemingly mastered the art of ignoring the obvious incompetence of the chief executive and the incompetents around him.

Karine Jean-Pierre, White House press secretary seems to have risen above the rest of the blinkered group.

According to a report Wednesday by CNN’s “Reliable Sources” newsletter — of all places — Biden’s press secretary has managed to alienate even the cheering section in the White House briefing room.

They were the same stenographers that acted as love-struck chorus girl for former White House press Secretary Jen Psaki have never been as entirely rah-rah-and-pom-poms for Jean-Pierre — despite her being the first black press secretary, as well as the first press secretary to be openly lesbian. (You can still probably find it). “Jen” (circled in hearts in press corps notebooks.

But it’s undeniable the press corps likes her. Since Jean-Pierre took over the job in May, she’s been treated with the kind of kid gloves no press secretary serving, say, former President Donald Trump could have dreamed of.

Jean-Pierre’s mannerisms — like incessantly consulting a binder for answers — and inaccuracies — like actually reading the wrong answer from that same binder — have gone largely unremarked.

Doocy is the only exception to this rule, and he has a habit of acting like an a. professional reporterThe press corps has been mostly docile.

But amid the scandal over Biden’s squirreled away classified documents, Jean-Pierre has been flatfooted too many times for even the indulgent liberals of the establishment media assigned to cover for the White House.

Und noch mehr “Reliable Sources” writer Oliver Darcy records, some are speaking out — albeit with the understanding that their names aren’t used. (God forbid the American public know who’s actually saying what in Washington.)

Even the binders were noticed.

“You just get the feeling that you’re wasting your time and whatever is in front of her in the binder is all she is going to say, no matter how many times you ask the question,” Darcy stated that a journalist told him. “It’s just a painful waste of time.”

“She is arguably the least effective White House press secretary of the television era,” Darcy quoted a correspondent as saying.

(Things aren’t utterly insane, though. Darcy also made a point of noting the exclusion of Trump White House press secretaries by his unnamed interlocutor. Even a dumb, inept Democratic appointee can be better than anyone associated to Trump, despite his memorably successful performances at the podium Kayleigh McEnany Sarah Huckabee Sanders.)

“In recent days, Jean-Pierre has faced a noticeably vexed White House press corps that is openly revolting against her,” Darcy wrote. “Many of the questions she has fielded have not been about the subject matter, but have centered on her very credibility and how she has performed in the job.”

To an eye unindoctrinated by the bias that infects the establishment media, questions about Jean-Pierre’s credibility were obvious from the outset. Her predictable, amateur partisanship Her qualifications for a CNN chair might make her qualified, but she is not qualified to be a spokesperson for all Americans.

She occasionally jaw-dropping gaffes It is clear that her most relevant qualifications are being a lesbian and black woman. (Not necessarily in that order.

But now, the eagle eyes of the nation’s political press are apparently opened to Jean-Pierre’s faults thanks to the classified documents scandal, particularly after Jean-Pierre assured reporters assembled Friday that all the documents that were to be found had been found — only to have the discovery of more announced the very next day.

Even worse, those new documents had been found on Thursday — Before Jean-Pierre stated to reporters that there would not be any more.

“On Friday, you stood here, though, and were asked about this documents issue, by our count, some 18 times,” Cecilia Vega of ABC News said at Tuesday’s briefing, according to Darcy.

“At that point, the president’s lawyers had found these five additional pages of classified documents. So, did you not know on Friday that those documents had been found when you were at the podium? Or are you being directed by someone to not be forthcoming on this issue?”

Translation: Are You a Liar or an Ignorant?

That’s not a great question for a press secretary. It’s the kind of question the Trump press secretaries had to deal with daily — either explicitly or implicitly — but it’s new here because the liberals of the White House press corps are hard-wired to go soft-and-cuddly with a Democrat.

“She is really liked, personally, but that shouldn’t be an excuse for her competence professionally,” According to one White House scribe, Darcy was told by him.

Jean-Pierre’s problems are unavoidable, even men and women who are being paid largely to overlook them have to face it: And when the White House press corps notices, you know there’s a problem.
