Has Jen Psaki overstated her intelligence? When the former press secretary for the White House and current talking head for MNSBC, Kara Swisher, joined her on stage, the vapidity was palpable.
If you do not know, Swisher is a far-left “journalist” who previously asserted that Hunter Biden would be well-liked by the American people. In other words, the upcoming clips may not be entirely honest.
“PSAKI: The branding, as you know, caused harm to the name.” Allow me to say that. That was my mental state at the time.”
“What would you call them?”
PSAKI: “I think Space Force is the title of a movie starring Steve Carrel. Could we have chosen a different course of action?”
At the end of the video, her Valley Girl accent is so adorable. It is the ideal conclusion to such a ridiculous claim.
The U.S. Space Force was not named after a Steve Carrel film, a fact that perhaps even Psaki, with her extensive knowledge base, is ignorant of. Netflix developed the television series “Space Force,” which debuted following the Trump administration’s establishment of the branch.
Keep this in mind as you watch the next video, which features an amazing and hilarious lack of self-awareness.
“PSAKI: I became a key target of the Kremlin, Vladimir Putin, and their propaganda machine since I was present when Russia invaded Ukraine in 2014.”
“SWISHER: Describe their actions.”
“PSAKI: A significant portion of their performance was highly gendered.” They pursued me and made up accusations that I never made. They invented a term, “Psaki-ing,” to refer to people who worked in the Kremlin, such as the government, and they used it in their nightly show on RT about me, which they broadcast in Russian and in Eastern European countries.
Indeed, I find it difficult to understand why anyone would refer to someone who speaks about subjects they do not understand as “Psaki-ing” in Russian. This true riddle may remain unsolved for eternity. Given that Psaki believes the U.S. Space Force was named after a movie, it is no surprise that she lacks a sense of irony.
But that was not the end of it. The most significant part of the interview was undoubtedly when Swisher asked Psaki if she considered herself a journalist. The crowd discussed that for a while.
“SWISHER: Essentially, you transitioned to the role of a journalist.” Are you claiming to be a journalist?
“PSAKI: Yes” (the audience erupts in laughter).
Psaki is such a tenacious fact-finder, as RedState noted, that she had to amend her published book to remove a misleading statement about Joe Biden. Yes, journalism.
These are the people calling Trump voters stupid:
Jen Psaki: "Space Force was literally the name of a Steve Carrell movie. Could we have done something different?"The TV series was named after Space Force, not the other way around you dolt. Next she's going to accuse F Scott… pic.twitter.com/IjY7gEY572

Psaki personifies the conceit that characterizes Beltway elites. These folks genuinely believe they are the only upright individuals still here. Psaki is still a political hack at MSNBC, having worked as one throughout the Biden administration. She is not a “journalist,” and it says a lot that even members of the left-wing crowd could find that claim offensive.
