White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre isn’t the brightest bulb in the diversity hire bunch, but she may very well be the most honest.
On Wednesday, KJP — as she is affectionately known — stated point blank that she didn’t understand a question from a White House press pool reporter. The truthful response was refreshing. Yet it was utterly confusing because the query was one of the most straightforward questions possibly ever.
“Does President Biden want more migrants to come to Delaware?” an unnamed reporter asked.
“I don’t even understand that question. I’ll move on,” a befuddled KJP responded.
Watch here:
This is one of the most straight forward questions I have ever heard. https://t.co/P3BFLX2lGd

Arguably, that is the most articulate and confident she has ever sounded.
Usually, KJP always talks like she is being fed her lines through a faulty earpiece that cuts out every other word and she has to guess what the next word is.
It may not be normal, but it is typical for KJP.
The reporter was obviously referring to a large number of illegal aliens — meaning millions of individuals — who have flooded the country since Biden took office. In recent months, conservative governors have shipped thousands of those people to Democratic hotbeds such as New York City, Washington, D.C., Chicago, and even Martha’s Vineyard.
DeSantis has been threatening to send even more to Delaware.
Just a few weeks ago, KJP understood that topic. Now, she claims she has no idea what the reporter is talking about when asked, “Does President Biden want more migrants to come to Delaware?”
Since the press secretary seems to be unable to answer that question, this author will attempt to do it for her from the perspective of a leftist:
What the president wants is for Republicans to end their hate, work with him, and craft a bipartisan compromise so that we can bring these brave men and women out of the shadows and on a path toward citizenship so they can obtain the American dream. Maybe that means they move to the great state of Delaware. The president certainly loves his home state.
That fictional answer — while pretty believable, if I do say so myself — is full of nonsense. It’s very easy to speak like a progressive — you just have to include flowery language, attack Republicans, and accuse opponents of being hateful.
It seems evident that the real reason the Biden administration has been pushing mass amnesty is that Democrats feel that doing so would shore up a new voting bloc and solidify the party’s power.
When KJP isn’t answering honestly about issues relating to illegal immigration, it is entirely clear that she does not know what she is speaking about.
For example, in early August, she claimed while discussing illegal immigration that “it’s not like somebody walks over” the border. Thousands of people do that each day.
Doocy: "Somebody unvaccinated comes over on a plane, you say that's not okay. Somebody walks into Texas or Arizona unvaccinated, they're allowed to stay?"
Jean-Pierre: "That's not how it works… It's not like someone walks over."

Like all White House press secretaries, she just has to repeat whatever the White House messaging is. KJP isn’t really paid to critically think or tell the truth.
She doesn’t really have any desire to do so either. As she has made emphatically clear, she is simply proud to be both the first black and openly gay press secretary in history.
Now, she can add another historical milestone to her belt: October 19, 2022, was her most honest day ever.
