Psaki Says Biden Stands By 'Powerful Speech' Comparing Republicans to Segregationists
|
[NATIONALREVIEW] White House press secretary
Does Rantburg have an exploding head GIF for her?

Jen Psaki
 ...a valley girl who woke up one morning and found she was spokeswoman for the U.S. Department of State under Obama. A new American success story, under Biden she became spokeswoman for the whole administration, and she was even able to get her sister a job...
said Tuesday that President Joe Biden
...... 46th president of the U.S. You're a lyin' dog-faced pony soldier . Of course Corn Pop is a real person.......
stands by the speech he delivered in Atlanta last week comparing opponents of Democrats’ voting bills to racists and segregationists, arguing that it "wasn’t a partisan speech."
Psaki claimed Biden delivered a "powerful speech" about Americans’ right to vote "for anyone they choose, whether it is him or someone else."
"It was not a partisan speech," she said. "It was intended to lay out for the public exactly what’s at stake and lay out for elected officials what’s at stake and he stands by everything he said in that speech."
During his speech advocating a suspension of filibuster rules to pass voting legislation Biden said: "So I ask every elected official in America, how do you want to be remembered? Do you want to be on the side of Dr. King or George Wallace? Do you want to be on the side of John Lewis or Bull Connor? Do you want to be on the side of Abraham Lincoln or Jefferson Davis?"
Biden was attempting to gin up support for the Freedom to Vote Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Act. The former would federalize some facets of elections, including setting a 15-day minimum early-voting period and setting national standards for voter-ID laws to include a range of documentation. The latter would restore portions of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 that allowed the Justice Department to review election-rule changes in districts with a history of discrimination.
