It was another bad day for White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, as Fox News Channel’s White House correspondent, Peter Doocy, showed up ready to do battIe and rhetorically bashed her to bits on the issue of crime, which came up because Rep. Cuellar, a Democrat, was carjacked in The Swamp.
Doocy got involved after the Wall Street Journal’s Catherine Lucey asked KJP, “Yeah, has the — does the White House have any comment on the carjacking of — for Representative Cuellar?
Has the President reached out to him? And more broadIy, does it say anything about safety and crime in the District?”
KJP, in response, attacked the coverage of the carjacking more than the carjacking itself, saying, “So, what we saw happen, the — the reporting that we saw happen to the congressman, obviously, was unacceptable. The President did have an opportunity to speak with the congressman today.
And we will con- — always continue to speak out against any sort of vioIence, and we’ve been consistent here in this administration.”
Continuing, she stumbled her way through trying to blame Republicans, saying, “We are certainly grateful and relieved that the congressman was unharmed. And we are thankful to the law enforcement to have reacted so quickly.
