Question: Has there been any concern about what might happen one day when the shoe is on the other foot
Psaki: I can assure you that this President has no intention to lead an insurrection on this nation’s Capitol

2. Meaning there are documents that prove the criminal 'intent' of the orange terrorist?

3. I love Jen. I hope she runs for some kind of office one day.

10. I would be happy

to just see her remain as Biden's spokesperson through his entire term.......

4. Who was the questioner?

Anyone know?

11. I think it was Ed O'Keefe from CBS.

I could be wrong because of the mask, but here's a link:

13. Definitely an asshole.

16. Whoever it was was someone trying to normalize an insurrection.

I am actually shocked that he said 'when the shoe is on the other foot' as if 1/6 was just another day in politics.

Psaki was far too nice to him.

5. Democrats believe in democracy, hence the name. Republican is just a nice word for Crook.

8. so true, every time i heard the word conservative i think "lies" "propaganda" "manipulation"

Good for nothing.

6. Ya gotta love her...so simple- so effective

[SouthernDem4ever]

7. She speaks the truth

that shuts them up every time, until they can make up a lie about it.

9. Sweet

12. I don't understand their line of thinking at all

Democrats tend to comply with congressional subpoenas as they don't have anything to hide.

14. Psaki rocks!

I love her. She speaks the truth. So refreshing.

[Raine1967]

15. reporter said: 'One day when the shoes on the other foot'

That just bothers me terribly. HE is literally normalizing an insurrection.

His question was couched as if it will happen again by the Dems. HE seems to think 1/6 was the norm.

Am I the only one who thinks that a reporter asking this question is ok? Psaki was amazing as always but the fact that anyone put this forward as a legit question is really awful.

it's not the typical 'both sides' bullsh*te, it's fodder for the Right Wing. Who was this reporter?

17. Man supports Hall Poopers.

I think it is pretty clear where the Republican party is when they support the act of pooping in the halls of the capitol. Republicans hate the American way of life. Hey Republicans, remember the Phrase, "Love it or leave it?" When a Republican defends this, remember, their base poops in your capitol, attacks police and steals computers. Their reporters defend it and their politicians show support for it.

18. This awful questioner also tried to mock her answer

Saying he predicted she would say that, "word for word." What rude, disdainful treatment this press secretary endures. She was FAR too kind to him. There apparently are no standards for decent behavior that right wingers follow, and this guy is definitely a RW tool

20. Psaki is sharp as a tack, and has an incredibly fast comeback. What a treasure!

Particularly after the line of dweebs, liars, and psychos who held the position during Dump's tenure.

[KentuckyWoman]

21. Boom.

Oh I love her sense of humor.

[LT Barclay]

22. I think what he is trying to imply is "hey, Obama let the whole Bush gang get by with war crimes,

what's a small insurrection among friends?"
And as the saying goes, with friends like that who needs enemas.

[HuskyOffset]

23. Future administrations absolutely MUST get to the bottom of . . .

. . . these TAN SUITS! It's a goddamn national disgrace, I tell you!

[wryter2000]

25. I swear she gets better every week
