Psaki Calls Situation On The Border A ‘Crisis,’ Later Walks It Back When Reporter Points Out Her Remark

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki called the situation on the U.S.-Mexico border a “crisis on the border” during Thursday’s press briefing but later walked it back when a reporter pointed out to her what she had said.

Psaki using the term “crisis on the border” comes as the Biden administration has repeatedly refused to call the situation a “crisis.” Even top Democrats have started calling the situation a crisis.
