During a podcast last week, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki literally laughed about high crime rates reporting.
She was referring to a segment being done by Judge Jeanine Pirro.
There was immediate and significant blowback, with Psaki only offering up spin after the fact.
Nobody is Buying It
When Jen Psaki gets on these local podcasts with friendly reporters, she sometimes loses a grip on reality.
Psaki recently did a podcast and was trying to claim Fox News was reporting in an alternative universe, then blasted the network for wrongly influencing people.
Here are her original comments…

Now keep in mind, this was also only days after two police officers were buried in New York after a brutal ambush.
Jen Psaki was asked about her comments the next day, and the spin she offered up was absolutely ridiculous, insulting, and never addressed the actual comments she made about rising crime rates and soft-on-crime policies of Democrats, especially George Soros-backed DAs, for being responsible.
Her comments and spin did not go over well with police unions.
Patrick Yoes, President of the Fraternal Order of Police, stated, “I think it’s wrong—very wrong—for Ms. Psaki to suggest that violent crime in our country is of no concern or to just laugh it off.
“She may feel safe in the White House, one of the most protected buildings in the United States, but not everyone feels safe in their workplace.
“The world we find ourselves in is dangerous and is becoming increasingly more so.
“Tens of thousands of people have been the victims of crime this month alone and some of them never made it back home.”
Fox News discusses…
This administration can say whatever it wants and the media can accept it as truth, but as long as DAs with a D next to their name are allowing the bad guys to walk free and lower sentencing, this is a Democrat problem whether Psaki, Biden, or anyone else in the party wants to admit.
Do you think Biden needs to do more to influence his party as a whole to be tougher on crime?
