Jen Psaki appreciation thread. Bye Jen, we are going to MISS you!

[toesonthenose]

Look forward to watching you on TV, but the selfish part of me wants you in that Press Room dealing out the facts like they need to be. I know Karine will do great, but she has some big shoes to fill! Thank you for all that you have done!

[niyad]

1. Exactly.

[Botany]

2. Her best line ever

Doocey, "How come the president is going to California on Tuesday?"

Psaki, "The election is Tuesday."

[BobTheSubgenius]

15. You'd think that idiot would tire of having his oh-so-clever questions turn into knees to the groin.

I guess he must have got used to it, or perhaps even derived pleasure from the pain and humiliation.

Ms Psaki is the best I can remember.

[NCjack]

41. +1. Thanks for the joy. Best wishes.

[BobTheSubgenius]

58. You are more than welcome.

And my best to you, as well.

[Raven123]

3. Dems need her voice this election cycle. Not a bad time to step down.

Avoid that Hatch Act conflict.

[walkingman]

7. I have never seen a press secretary as good as Jen. Big shoes

is right.

[BlueIdaho]

8. Ms Psaki restored the dignity

Of the Press Secretary’s office. She didn’t lie, she didn’t attack the Press Pool, and she didn’t demean America’s allies. She gracefully represented the White House with class and honor.

We salute you ma’am, for a job well done!

[2naSalit]

16. Dignity and civility.

She should do well in journalism. I will be watching her in her new position.

I'm an old fart too!

12. GO, JEN!

[bringthePaine]

13. Best. Ever.

[usaf-vet]

... demeanor were her strengths.

[whathehell]

17. She's great -- I'm very sorry to see her go. n/t

[DinahMoeHum]

18. Thanks for everything, Jen. Will watch you on MSNBC.

Jen Psaki is exactly what we needed at this time in our country.

Continue onward Ms. Psaki.

[DFW]

20. She set a whole new standard for the position of White House Press Secretary

She raised the bar to a level never seen before.

52. An insurmountable bar...

Commanding Mensa level intelligence wielded with more class than sometimes deserved. Love her!

24. And thus dies the comedy team of Psaki and Doocey

Few could deliver a set up like Peter Doocey. Most viewers thought Doocey was actually sincere in his questions.
Few could respond with razor sharp one liners like Jen Psaki.

Look for a bright career for Jen Psaki.
Let's hope someone adopts Peter Doocey and gives him a good home.

[mitch96]

32. " thus dies the comedy team of Psaki and Doocey"...She said she would miss their professional

Relationship at an event sponsored by the Christian Science Monitor. Psaki said "I understand that he’s coming there to ask questions every day that are important to report and the outlet he works for, and I respect that, and we have healthy debates and discussions,
it doesn’t mean I agree with his line of questioning on most days,”
Very gracious Ms Psaki.

On another note this would make a great plot for a Hallmark channel movie... or not..

[rurallib]

33. as long as said couple never got together

[mitch96]

34. Yes, I can't see them two in a lip lock......uff......nt

[dai13sy]

25. Jen is awesome

Pure and simple. I could go on watching her as Press Secretary forever because she is the best ever. But I watch MSNBC all the time so I'll get to hear her wisdom. Good Luck always Jen but you don't need luck because you've got BIG skills

[Wicked Blue]

26. Jen Psaki for president on 2028!

She would be awesome in the debates.

[aggiesal]

27. We knew this day was coming, for a long time. Still not prepared ...

Instead of good bye, we will see you soon at your new position.

[greatauntoftriplets]

28. Best of luck, Jen!

We'll miss you.

[WinstonSmith4740]

29. Best of everything!!

She was such a breath of fresh air after the clown car of "press secretaries" from TFG. Can't wait to see her on MSNBC!

[llashram]

30. one of the best

brilliant...

[BadgerMom]

31. The. best.

Thank you!

[mahina]

35. So much so.

[FakeNoose]

36. Thank you Jen Psaki - you have restored dignity and brilliance to the WH Press Room

[Thunderbeast]

37. This James Corden satire is priceless

The fact that she roped Biden and the press corps into making this shows just how good she is!

[Botany]

38. The fact that Biden & Jen could all laugh @ themselves and enjoy working with Mr. Corden says ...

... a lot about them. And the White House reporters enjoyed having fun too.

[Riverman100]

39. Rock on Jen!!!

We will miss you

[SouthernDem4ever]

40. Her service has been exceptional, intelligent and coherent

I will miss her in one of the most important positions in the white house, but look forward to her broadcast career.

[Hulk]

42. She was the "gold standard"...

Everyone to follow will be measured by her performance.

Thank you Jen! We owe you an awful lot for bringing press briefings back to normalcy...and in fact instilled credibility and civility where it was totally void.

I live you! You are right up there with President and First Lady Obama...and Biden. You served your country well.

[spanone]

43. The Best!

♥️

[Owl]

44. She was fabulous. Indeed the best.

[liberalmediaaddict]

45. She'll definitely be missed

Look forward to her next career endeavor whatever it may be. Imagine she's going to take a long, well deserved vacation first.

[Blue Owl]

46. All the best to Jen in whatever the future holds

[evolves]

47. Cheers to our favorite

Psaki bomb!!
