Psaki cited the ban as proof that the president was upset by the images, after members of Congress and activists voiced their outrage that these tactics were happening during Biden’s presidency.
Psaki defended Biden for failing to publicly condemn the images.
"His actions make clear how horrible and horrific he thinks these things are," she said.

He later said he was "horrified" by the images and said the incident was under investigation.
Activists compared the border agents to slave hunters.

She dropped out because she was polling in negative numbers because of racism or misogyny or something like that. Her father is a Marxist professor emeritus at Stanford and her mother is an Indian of the Hindoo tribe. She is reputedly the proud descendant of a long line of women.

"I fully support what is happening right now, which is a thorough investigation into exactly what is going on there," she said. "But human beings should never be treated that way. I’m deeply troubled about it."
