The unhinged coven on ABC’s The ViewOn Friday, they donned their tinfoil hats and met Jen Psaki, White House Press Secretary. They spewed crackpot conspiracy theories about how the midterm elections in 2022 would be illegal because Republicans had taken voting rights away from blacks. This is all false.
Ana Navarro, loopy CNNer, and Ana Navarro were the ones who demanded Psaki discredit the election that was only 10 months away. Even though she was frustrated by President Biden’s claims, Ana Navarro seemed annoyed that he had retract them at Wednesday’s press conference. He stated that the results for 2022 should not be believed.
Jen during the marathon press conference The President suggested also that we could make the next election illegal if voter protections are not passed. You’ve clarified that he was talking about Trump’s attempts to overturn the 2020 results.
But as we speak, there are many, many state measures that would curtail the ability to vote and make it harder to vote by mail, there’s 160 big-lie loyalists who are running for statewide positions that will give them authority over our elections.
“Without reforms, how can voters believe in the legitimacy and validity of next elections?,” she wanted to know.
On Thursday, Psaki had Made the rounds to multiple media outlets to reel in Biden’s outlandish accusations. Her Friday reply was not as sharp. “Well, voters should be eyes wide open and clear-eyed,” she warned viewers. “And this is what the President was getting at the other night that people are trying to make it harder for people to vote.”
Earlier in the show, co-host Sunny Hostin peddled the big lie that Republicans were specifically targeting black people with supposed “voter suppression laws” and wanted to know why Biden was ignoring the black community (a theme she’d been harping on for a while):
Well, considering – moving on to the voting rights issue. Considering that these voter suppression laws – which is what I believe they are – primarily target people of color, does the President realize that he’s going to be letting down the same black voters that let him into the White House? This was a priority when Americans were involved in the aftermath of the insurrection. Why didn’t it get prioritised?
“Well, he’s been engaged in it from the beginning,” Psaki said. “But this is very frustrating, it’s infuriating that some people in the Senate including the entire Republican caucus won’t support people’s fundamental rights.”
Following Psaki’s answer there, co-host Joy Behar had her knives out for Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV) and Psaki did her best impression of Vice President Kamala Harris (awkward laughter and strange answer):
BEHAR: The President stated that he would like to split his Build Back Better legislation in smaller pieces to make it easier for him to pass. But Senator Manchin says we must start fresh. My God. Is there anything salvageable? What stays in? And what comes out of it all? How do we find out if Manchin will keep his word?
PSAKI: [Laughter]Joy, I am in need of some coffee. I’m not sure.

Eastern, 11:25:37JOY BEHAR Joining us now to tell us when the administration – where they go from here, please welcome, White House press secretary, the lovely and talented, Jen Psaki!
Hello, Jen.
JEN PSAKI, PRESS SERETARY: Hello Joy! It’s great to meet you all.
BEHAR: I am too. I enjoy your press conferences so much.
PSAKI: I am grateful.
BEHAR: Yes. Advertise when you’re on, however. People need to know when you’re going to be there. You need more information than you have.
PSAKI: OK, let’s get on with it.
BEHAR: You can do that.
PSAKI: We’ll work on that. We will do more.
BEHAR: Everything is fine.
One year later, President Obama has achieved great achievements like the bipartisan infrastructure bill, 6 million-plus new jobs, and lower child poverty. However, he has also had some significant challenges in his presidency as well as disunity among his own party members. What is his biggest learning so far? And what are his plans for the future?

SUNNY HOSTIN: Well, considering – moving on to the voting rights issue. Considering that these voters suppression laws – which is what I believe they are – primarily target people of color, does the President realize that he’s going to be letting down the same black voters that let him into the White House? This was not prioritized when Americans were involved in the aftermath of the insurrection.
PSAKI: He’s been involved from the start. The premise would lead me to believe that Senator Manchin, Senator Sinema, and other filibuster opponents more than them at the time would have had an alternative point of view. We don’t think that’s true.
But this is very frustrating, it’s infuriating that some people in the Senate including the entire Republican caucus won’t support people’s fundamental rights. It’s also frustrating that when you talk about voter protections, which is something everybody should have the right to, that some people are putting process ahead of that fundamental protection.
It’s not possible to give up. It’s important to continue working on it, including changing the rules so that voting rights legislation can be moved forward at a federal level.
BEHAR: The President stated that he would like to split his Build Back Better legislation in smaller pieces to make it easier for him to pass. Senator Manchin insists that we should start at the beginning. My God. Is there anything salvageable? What stays in and what comes out of it? How do we find out if Manchin will keep his word?
PSAKI: [Laughter]Joy, I am in need of some coffee. I’m not sure.

ANA NAVARRO : Jen, during his marathon conference, Trump suggested that the next presidential election might be illegitimate if it doesn’t pass voter protections. You’ve clarified that he was talking about Trump’s attempts to overturn the 2020 results.
But as we speak, there are many, many state measures that would curtail the ability to vote and make it harder to vote by mail, there’s 160 big-lie loyalists who are running for statewide positions that will give them authority over our elections.
Without reforms, how can voters believe in the legitimacy and validity of next elections?
PSAKI: The voters need to have open eyes and see clearly. The President said the same thing the night before that many people were trying to make it more difficult for voters to vote.
