She says that the president does a great job with both efforts, and any problems can easily be explained by Republicans.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve made significant progress in lowering gas prices. Prices are down nearly two dollars per gallon, and are lower than they were one year ago today, this very day,\u201d On Tuesday, she stated that gas was ticking up due to recent bad weather which has caused supply disruptions.<\/p>\n<p>Jean-Pierre spun when a reporter countered, pointing to the fact that gas prices are still much higher than before Biden became president.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know, but I\u2019m talking about one year ago and that was \u2013 one year ago was not when he came into office,\u201d She stated.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Jean-Pierre: \u201cWe\u2019ve made significant progress in lowering the [gas] prices.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Reporter: \u201cThe price of gas when [Biden] came into office was $2.39 a gallon.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jean-Pierre: \u201cI know, but I\u2019m talking about one year ago and that was \u2013 one year ago was not when he came into office.\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/cmneMLw96f\">pic.twitter.com\/cmneMLw96f<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 RNC Research (@RNCResearch) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RNCResearch\/status\/1610374673606541312?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 3, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n<p>She\u2019s correct \u2014 the high gas prices in January 2022 were after Biden came into office, but it was also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/biden-implies-americas-options-are-either-high-gas-prices-or-putin-controlling-europe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">before Russian President Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine in February<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Since the invasion occurred, Jean-Pierre has used her podium to continuously blame Putin for the increased cost of energy \u2014 while ignoring the rising prices prior to the war beginning.<\/p>\n<p>Jean-Pierre can\u2019t discuss that fact honestly because if she did, she\u2019d have to admit that the Democrats\u2019 anti-fossil fuel policies and rhetoric can be blamed for the higher energy prices.

Trump\u2019s measures to secure the border. Nonetheless, Jean-Pierre says that the record number of illegal aliens under Biden is the GOP\u2019s fault.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd here\u2019s the thing, as the president is coming forward and trying to come up with solutions, the difference here is that you have Republicans, as you know, who are doing political stunts,\u201d She added.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Doocy: &#8220;Does anybody around here think that the southern border is secure?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Jean-Pierre: &#8220;This is a president who has been working since day 1 to work on border security\u2026&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/pWQGNrINKU\">pic.twitter.com\/pWQGNrINKU<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Daily Wire (@realDailyWire) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realDailyWire\/status\/1610371141763219462?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 3, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Jean-Pierre also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/ice-deportations-lag-another-year-as-agents-deployed-to-border-crisis\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">claimed<\/a> that as evidenced by the president\u2019s commitment of 23,000 agents to the U.S. border, Biden is taking this issue very seriously.<\/p>\n<p>It is worth noting that the number of people who have been affected by this disease has exceeded a thousand. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/ice-deportations-lag-another-year-as-agents-deployed-to-border-crisis\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Immigration and Customs Enforcement<\/a> Agents from the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), have been reassigned at the border to help with the thousands of deportations per day.
