Jen Psaki says CARES Act money could "certainly" be used to pay the salaries of anyone who Ron DeSantis strips funding from in Florida's school system for imposing a mask mandate.

1. Take that Ron!

If you won't lead, the President will have to do it for you. Old Ron will be singing the Charlie Brown song. "I say ah why's everybody always picking on me?"

2. Whoa! Kick him in the shins!

I love this administration.

3. If DeSantis is trying to score political points . . ..

I think he would fail . ..

Yay for Cares Act.

[Bev54]

4. I hope more school administrators hear this and defy orders

everywhere. The government should, though, sue the states later to retrieve any funds paid out and put them back into the Cares Act fund.

5. that's what you call a sweet burn. LOL nt

6. Yes!!! G.F.Y., Ron, you scummy bastard.

9. Yes, DeathSentence, proceed forthwith to self-fornication!

With a pitchfork. An old rusty, manure-encrusted, tetanus- and delta-infected pitchfork. Sideways.

Evil f*cker! - - - - - - - - - - - -

14. Forthwith AND forsooth!

[SergeStorms]

7. That'll burn.

Way to step in and put DeathSantis in his proper place: the dust bin of history, because that's all he's going to have after his current term is finished.

Makes me so proud to be a Democrat. 🥳

8. Would like to know Psaki's IQ score. Imagine the pages & pages of detailed policy she reads every da

..and discusses before she steps out to answer questions. Pages & pages of detailed policy, & updates.. night & day

She makes it look so easy.

11. She is awesome, isn't she?

So much better than the angry, nasty ones we had to put up with the past four years. Remember Sean Spicer and the crabby gal from Arkansas? The cool Italian guy only lasted a few hours.

There are some school districts who will be defying the orders of the so-called governor. I don't think the demon realized how much power the presidential office has. He doesn't have his boyfriend in office to back him anymore. Cheers to the Biden Administration!

15. I would not like to have to fill those shoes.

[Budi]

16. Nope. She does all this AND has a family to nurture & raise as well.

Admirable!

[twodogsbarking]

10. could certainly. Think that one through a few times.

[Naio]

12. Jen is so beautiful,smart and sweet.

We love ❤️ her.

[wnylib]

13. Yes! Thank you Joe, Kamala, and Jen

for leading the fight against the murderous governors to save Anerican lives.

17. Now all the other red states figured out how to pay teacher salaries

Just leech from the federal government like they do with everything else.

18. I hope Jen remains press secretary a long time

Press secretaries are integral to an administration. I hope Jen remains in that position a long time. She is excellent.

19. If the "Cares" act pays any employee of any state...

They need to make that money free of state income taxes, unemployment, and insurance costs.

Send a message to the states. If the country pays your employees because of your asinine rules, it will cost you too.
