Is Joe Biden Gonna Kill His Dog? And Other Absurd Moments From Biden Spox Jen Psakis Briefings This WeekBy Tommy ChristopherMar 13th, 2021, 10:19 am
White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki found herself being pressed to say whether President Joe Biden intends to kill his dog, and that was arguably not the most absurd situation she faced this week.
If you thought the Brady Briefing Room was a surreal hellscape worthy of a Twin Peaks dream sequence last week, this week would like last week to hold its beer. But through it all, Psaki continued to display the very particular set of skills that has endeared her to a growing army of fans anti-Trump PAC MeidasTouch even has an extensive line of Psaki merchandise, and theres a Psaki anthem as well who celebrate her every head tilt, bemused smirk, and calmly delivered so-called Psaki bomb.
The week began with the escalating story of First Dog Major Bidens alleged aggression, which was reported to have caused him and his older brother Champ Biden to be deported to Wilmington. Psaki had to weigh in on MSNBCs Morning Joe without giving much detail, but was clear that the White House stood with Major. But by briefing time, she was ready to explain that someone later revealed to be a Secret Service agent startled the rescue pooch and sustained a minor injury from what was later described as a nipping incident.
All of a sudden, though, she was faced with a reporter asking if the President had ruled out having the dog killed. The usually unflappable Psaki may have been slightly flapped this time, responding Well, certainly, Major Biden is a member of the family, so I can assure you that, but never actually ruling it out.

Edit: Other ideas..
Post question ratings on chyron below video...
Have instant call in ratings of questions like one of those people's choice shows...
A giant gong like the old Gong Show on TV and the reporter asking the ridiculous question is escorted out...
Another edit:
Penalty box/time out for reporters, like getting a yellow card in soccer or thrown in the box for ice hockey...out for so many minutes or days....
Maybe it is or isn't...
