If you can’t take the heat, stay out of the press room!
On Thursday, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre STORMED out of a press briefing after getting into a heated argument with a White House reporter who called her out on not taking a question from him. Kayleigh McEnany would have NEVER!
The reporter kept trying to ask a question in which Jean-Pierre kept ignoring him and then showed complete disgust when he moved forward with speaking. She interrupted him numerous times and did not give him an answer, but rather continued to insist that she’d already answered him.
I guess it’s hard to come up with lies on the spot to continue covering Biden’s corruption, eh?

A transcript of the exchange is as follows:
Jean-Pierre: “Go ahead. Go ahead.”
Reporter: “Can you take the question on the U.S.-Africa summit?”
Jean-Pierre: “Go ahead, yeah:”
Reporter: “Can you take the question on the U.S.-Africa summit?”
Jean-Pierre: “Go ahead, you.”
Reporter: “Karine, why is it so hard to take the question on the U.S.-Africa summit when the President will meet 50 African leaders, the biggest gathering of leaders of this administration? Why is it hard for you to give me a question?”
Jean-Pierre: “It is not hard. I’ve answered — would you let me answer the question or — okay.”
Reporter: “You don’t give us the question.”
Jean-Pierre: “I tried to answer your question. Go ahead, sir. Go ahead. I just tried, but you wouldn’t let me.”
Reporter: “No, but — “
Jean-Pierre: “I just tried and you would not let me, sir, so your colleague is going to ask the question.”
Reporter: “Let me ask you a question on the U.S.-Africa summit — “
Jean-Pierre: “I literally just tried to answer your question. You shut me down. So now your colleague is going to — “
Reporter: “Let me ask the question first before you answer.”
Jean-Pierre: “Okay. Thanks, everybody. I’ll see you tomorrow.”
The left-wing secretary showed that she, much like the rest of the Biden Administration, crumbles under the slightest bit of pressure.
