A week after Jean-Pierre was appointed press secretary, the White House selected Kirby to fill the position. Some saw this as a sign of weakness. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/newsletters\/west-wing-playbook\/2022\/05\/23\/kirbys-bumpy-launch-00034367\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Undermining<\/a> Former chief of staff for Kamala Harris.<\/p>\n<p>White House insiders &#8220;feel that the timing of Kirby&#8217;s hiring demonstrates that White House leadership believes that the first African-American White House press secretary needs &#8216;adult supervision,'&#8221; Polito was told by a source.<\/p>\n<p>Jean-Pierre is becoming increasingly frustrated by members of the media, who often refuse to answer questions on pressing issues such as Biden&#8217;s classified document scandal. A reporter asked Jean-Pierre about the classified documents scandal earlier in the month. &#8220;how the White House can claim that they are being transparent&#8221; Jean-Pierre responded after officials waited several months to tell the public that FBI agents had searched the Penn Biden Center on November 11. &#8220;I&#8217;m just not going to comment.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The spokeswoman blamed Republicans for the rise in gas prices over recent weeks. These have risen dramatically during Biden\u2019s two-year tenure.<\/p>\n<p>Jean-Pierre&#8217;s gaffe was not the first time that members of the administration have claimed Biden is president. Biden called his vice president &#8220;President Harris&#8221; On multiple occasions.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/biden-administration\/video-bidens-press-secretary-knows-a-whole-lot-of-nothing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">VIDEO &#8211; Biden&#8217;s Press Secretary Knows Much of Nothing<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre referred to President Joe Biden as &#8220;President Obama&#8221; during a Thursday press briefing, marking the latest gaffe for the struggling press secretary.<br \/>\nThe post GAFFE ALERT: Karine Jean-Pierre Calls Biden &#8216;President Obama&#8217; appeared first on Washington Free Beacon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1613,"featured_media":616147,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[544],"tags":[8741,3620,3755,17568,7324,13255,5315,3669],"class_list":["post-1859239","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-free-beacon","tag-alert","tag-biden","tag-calls","tag-gaffe","tag-jean-pierre","tag-karine","tag-obama","tag-president"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1859239","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1613"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1859239"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1859239\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/616147"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1859239"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1859239"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1859239"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
