Jen Psaki apologizes to Afghanistan Gold Star families in congressional interview

Jen Psaki apologizes to Afghanistan Gold Star families in congressional interview

Former White House press secretary Jen Psaki extended an apology to the families of the 13 Gold Star military service members who died in the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021 on Friday.

During a transcribed interview, Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Michael McCaul (R-TX) asked Psaki about her comments that she wrote in her book, Say More, that stated President Joe Biden never looked at his watch during a ceremony in late August 2021 honoring soldiers killed in Afghanistan returning home. 

“The chairman asked Ms. Psaki about her comments regarding President Biden looking at his watch while at Dover [Air Force Base] and asked her if she had anything she wanted to say to the families on the record,” Leslie Shedd, Foreign Affairs Committee majority spokeswoman, said in a statement to the Washington Examiner. “After pressing her multiple times if she had something she wanted to say to them, Ms. Psaki asked the chairman to pass along her apology to the families and to express her regret for the pain she caused them. He has done that.”

Biden’s demeanor during the return of the service members killed in Afghanistan has been used by Republicans and former President Donald Trump as evidence to claim that Biden is an unempathetic leader. Psaki’s statement that the incident of checking his watch never occurred contrasted with several photographs taken of the day by news agencies, including the Associated Press.

Like they really care.

This is what gets me. 

Everyone says Biden cares. 

Baloney.

The only thing he cares about is being in a history book.

He's in those now and will be for a long time.

As one of the worst presidents ever.

And Psaki will go down as one of several who perpectuate the big line for 3.5 years.

I watched a Biden press conference from 2021.  You know what.  He sounded as bad then as he did when he debated Trump.

And the democrats are rushing to show support for another purveyor of the big lie, Hindenburg Harris.

Did LIEden's SpokesLIAR admit she LIED?
I am not and never have been a leftist.

If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Apologizing for something one has no responsibility for is easy.
For unvaccinated, we are looking at a winter of severe illness and death — if you’re unvaccinated — for themselves, their families, and the hospitals they’ll soon overwhelm. Sloe Joe Biteme 12/16
