| Psaki Grilled On Biden's ‘Thin' Schedule, Foreign Policy Disasters, Americans Abandoned In Afghanistan |
| 2021-12-15 |
| [WIRE] White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki faced intense questions on Tuesday over a variety of issues facing the administration as it battles low approval ratings from the American public. One reporter pressed Psaki on the "thin" public schedule released for President Joe Biden and asked what Biden was doing today. The inquiry came as questions have continued to swirl about Biden’s mental fitness for office. "Well, let’s see. The President has two local interviews he will be doing later this afternoon," Psaki responded. "He has a number of internal meetings with senior members of his staff that have happened throughout the course of the day today, his Presidential Daily Brief and I believe there’s some mayors who are visiting today as well." "What’s the purpose of the meeting with the mayors?" the reporter asked. "It’s not a meeting with the President with the mayors," Psaki said. "They’re here, I’m not going to get ahead of it beyond that." |

| #8 Merrick’s format is a way to get 2 1/2 more years of Barry. (He is ineligible for election but I don’t see a prohibition to appointment.) |

| #7 Still think the Nixon-Agnew-Ford maneuver's a real possibility. 1. VP is moved out -- Ambassador to France prob'y 2. New VP and heir-apparent is moved in 3. Magoo (aka Plugs the Hair-Apparent) steps down and New VP takes over Only Q is which identity-politics box the New VP will tick: Alphabet Person or Noble Mulatta? |

| #6 I will go out on a limb and state there will never be another Clinton or Boosh prexident in my lifetime (admittedly, that's not all that long) |

| #5 He's fading fast. They've got to come up with a Plan-B. The Harris rehab is in high gear. The Clintons are scrambling. As long as he can function as a human teleprompter, Joe is the perfect spokes-droid for the Brandon Administration. But as he nears his expiration date, he becomes increasingly unreliable. Can't have the Prez glitching out public, giving the game away! Harris is a non-starter. Too many negatives (that laugh alone!) and unreliable. She will need to be moved out of the way. That will require deft maneuvering or an untimely accident. Helicopters crash all the time. Cthulu lies dreaming in a chardonnay fog, but will never be President. Hillary lies dreaming... I *know* I typed Hillary. Damn autocorrect! She could play the role of queen-maker though. Say, what is Chelsea doing these days? Chelsea is the least insane of all the name-brand Democrats I can think of. It's not like the Dems have a deep bench. Gretchen Whitmer, anyone? |

| #4 My high school US history teacher loved to recite an apocryphal story of how barrels of whiskey had to be opened in bathtubs on the White House lawn to lure unruly guests out of Andrew Jackson's inaugural ball. |

| #2 'This is a great question!' Psaki is left speechless (for once) when asked to name Biden's biggest foreign policy achievement |
