Never considered KJP 'good news' under any circumstance. Just another embarrassment for the Defenders of Democracy.
You really can’t make shit like this up. I tried to stay away from this board but this is the stuff that I just can’t figure out what some are thinking. It’s amazing.
I just don't understand why, in the age of social media, we need mega money in elections. I think the internet could be the ultimate tool for democracy and let ideas win. The citizenry needs to decide they are tired of the false dichotomies and start using brain cells to elect people. The "who would you rather have a beer with" test isn't how we are going to dig out of $36.9t national debt
What??? Doh! Biden was a Chicom puppet to the core. Of course he was embraced by the Left. That's why sKamala also tanked. They were both too far LEFT even for the Chicom Puppet Party, so they caused it to fray, and splinter off the non-idiots/psychos. So the chicom puppet party remains firmly controlled by the Chicoms... which is causing it to bleed out regular folk. Note how steadfastly loyal to the Leftward movement of the Democrat party our local contingency remains... Dis. Co. Nected. LOL(osers)!
I agree. This is a thread about the former Press Secretary . . . not Ukraine or the intelligence community or Jimmy Carter in the 1970s. Thanks.
Biden World comes out with a flamer thrower at KJP: What they're saying: One former White House official who worked closely with Jean-Pierre told Axios that she "was one of the most ineffectual and unprepared people I've ever worked with. ... She had meltdowns after any interview that asked about a topic not sent over by producers." "She didn't know how to manage a team, didn't know how to shape or deliver a message, and often created more problems than she solved," the official said. A former Biden communications official threw more wood on the fire: "The hubris of thinking you can position yourself as an outsider when you not only have enjoyed the perks of extreme proximity to power — which ... bestows the name recognition needed to sell books off your name — but have actively wielded it from the biggest pulpit there is, is as breathtaking as it is desperate ... It's difficult to see how this is anything but a bizarre cash grab." Another former White House official familiar with the dynamics told Axios: "The amount of time that was spent coddling [Jean-Pierre] and appeasing her was astronomical compared to our attention on actual matters of substance." https://www.axios.com/2025/06/05/karine-jean-pierre-book-reaction-biden-aides
While I have no doubt regarding the accuracy of the story if she was so incompetent why wasn't she canned? If the concern was over the impression that her race or ethnicity was a factor she could have always been replaced as press secretary by a more competent "woman of color". If the Biden White House was concerned with optics she could have been retained in a less responsible position with a title like "Assistant Director of Communications" rather than press secretary.
From the article: The intrigue: Despite longstanding internal frustration with Jean-Pierre's performance since she took over as press secretary in mid-2022, Biden aides largely had stayed silent because she was seen as untouchable, given her close relationship with Jill Biden's top aide Anthony Bernal. During Biden's presidency, Bernal had a hand in hiring many White House aides who were prioritized for their loyalty. Bernal is a name that came up a lot in Original Sin as having an outsized influence in the Biden Admin as Jill's Chief of Staff.
