It’s been a tough day for White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre. A trio of terrible replies she gave today to three separate issues was her worst nightmare.
First, there was her pathetic response to the Chinese threat to shoot down House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s plane if she went to Taiwan with a fighter escort. Jean-Pierre didn’t even condemn it; she just refused to comment on Pelosi’s “schedule”–which was an incredibly weak response in the face of such a threat.
KJP’s absurd response to news reports about the Biden team’s decision to finish parts of Trump’s border wall in Yuma was another example. This was a complete about-face from Joe Biden’s pledge not to build one more foot of Donald Trump’s wall, not to mention KJP’s anti-wall comments. They were now trying to justify it. Jean-Pierre even attacked Trump, claiming they were cleaning up the “mess” Trump left. The Biden team was the one who stopped the construction of the wall. Now, they’re backtracking like the hypocrites they are.
But that wasn’t all. It’s possible she was determined to end the trilogy of horrendous responses. She had one more Friday.
To let Washington, D.C. know that their system was overwhelmed, Arizona and Texas bused illegal immigrants to Washington, D.C. It worked, because D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser then demanded that Joe Biden provide the National Guard to help the city “indefinitely” with the 4,000 people that Bowser said were a “humanitarian crisis” they had to deal with. What about the hundreds of thousands who flood into Arizona and Texas cities every year? Arizona alone had to cope with over 40,000 illegal aliens in June. Jean-Pierre was asked about the problem on Thursday and said that the illegal aliens were being sent as a “political ploy.”
Jean-Pierre received a wonderful question from a reporter who followed up the topic on Friday. “What’s the difference between Texas busing migrants to D.C., and the federal government flying migrants to, say New York, in the middle of the night?” the reporter asked. That’s exactly what the Biden team has been doing.

KJP’s reply was just silly, “It’s very different because we’re not doing it — using migrants as a political pawn.” Talk about a hypocritical response.
No, the Republicans are doing it to make the point that Biden is hurting the country with his policies, and you Democrats don’t care until the problem drops in your backyard. This is how they proved it. But the illegal aliens are all only here because of the Democrats’ craven “political ploy” to leave the doors to the country open, so people can flood in. Bowser, KJP and Biden can’t object. They wanted this–and isn’t D.C. still a sanctuary city? This should, in their opinion, be an excellent thing. What can they do to be unhappy?
Pay attention to a few points. KJP didn’t deny flying the illegal aliens into New York in the middle of the night. Moreover, Bowser still hasn’t gotten any real help from Biden, and I don’t think they got the National Guard yet. If Biden provided it, he might then face the question of why he thinks that’s a humanitarian crisis in D.C. but not one in the cities that have had to put up with this under him for two years.
Looks like the tactic is working — it’s got their attention. May I suggest to Texas and Arizona to broaden your scope, with buses to Martha’s Vineyard and Rehoboth Beach, Maryland? These seem to be two great areas for illegal aliens for spending the remainder of their summer.
