Former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki called independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy a &#8220;huge, huge problem&#8221; for President Joe Biden&#8217;s re-election campaign, admitting that she was worried he could siphon off enough votes to do some serious damage.
Psaki, during a Thursday appearance on MSNBC&#8217;s &#8220;Morning Joe,&#8221; told co-host Mika Brzezinski that she was concerned people might vote for Kennedy based on name recognition rather than his policy positions.

Brzezinski began the conversation by asking Psaki to weigh in on what might be motivating Kennedy to stay in the race, especially if there was a chance that he could ultimately help former President Donald Trump by taking votes from Biden.
&#8220;I don’t want to be in RFK Jr.’s brain where he didn’t believe in science and all sorts of other things,&#8221; Psaki replied. &#8220;This is the biggest challenge.&#8221;

&#8220;These third-party candidates are a huge, huge, huge problem, and there’s a number of them. If you look at RFK, it’s the name recognition issue,&#8221; Psaki continued. &#8220;And there are still states in this country, obviously — I mean, Georgia is one of them, I will name, where the Kennedy name is beloved, right, where people may just not still —&#8221;
&#8220;Right,&#8221; Brzezinski agreed, interrupting.
&#8220;— where they may just not know a lot about the fact that he is an anti-vaxxer, who&#8217;s a conspiracy theorist,&#8221; Psaki added. &#8220;They don&#8217;t know that yet. So this is something. There is an aggressive effort that the campaign has been working with the Democratic National Committee on to run on this, but it needs to be broad, people need to be shouting it from the rooftops because this is one of the biggest threats to Joe Biden being re-elected, is these third-party candidates.&#8221;
President Biden also took a shot at Kennedy over the weekend, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/biden-takes-st-pats-day-photo-with-the-kennedys-rfk-jr-responds-to-being-left-out" target="_blank" rel="noopener">posting a photo</a> of himself with many members of the Kennedy family — but not RFK Jr. — in honor of their shared Irish heritage and St. Patrick&#8217;s Day.
Kennedy, when confronted by NewsNation host Chris Cuomo about the photo, shrugged it off and explained that it was fine for family members to sometimes disagree on things.

According to a Pew Research Center <a href="https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2024/02/29/americans-top-policy-priority-for-2024-strengthening-the-economy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">survey</a> taken just last month, 57% of Americans say that the top priority this year is dealing with illegal immigration. And when it comes to immigration, Joe Biden is 20 points underwater.
This is leading Democrats down a real rabbit hole. They have two choices: Be the moderates on immigration or pretend voters are out of their minds.
And they&#8217;re going to do just what you would think they&#8217;re going to do. They&#8217;re going to pretend voters are crazy and out of their minds.
On Tuesday night, after exit polling revealed how strongly Republicans care about immigration, Democrats like Jen Psaki, the former press secretary for Biden, were mocking Republicans on MSNBC for caring about immigration.
“I mean, if you look at some of these exit polls — I mean, I live in Virginia. Immigration was the number one issue, of course, I mean, again, these could change,” Psaki stated.
“Well,” MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow laughed, adding, “Virginia does have a border with West Virginia.” As Psaki laughed along, Maddow added, “A very contested area.”

Perhaps people are worried illegal immigrants are going to show up where they live and might commit crimes. Or perhaps they are worried about the vast cultural changes that could be wrought by importing millions of people who have no familiarity with American concepts of ideas such as free speech and property rights. Or perhaps they are simply worried about generating an entire economic underclass of people, many of whom will be dependent on welfare benefits and many of whom are going to be lowering the wage base and the like.
<h4><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/episode/ep-1919-nikki-haley-is-out-member-exclusive" target="_blank" rel="noopener">WATCH: The Ben Shapiro Show</a></h4>
There are a multitude of reasons why people in Virginia might be worried about illegal immigration.
But Democrats are disconnected from this issue. According to the polling data from <a href="https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2024/02/29/americans-top-policy-priority-for-2024-strengthening-the-economy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Pew</a>, 39% of Democrats believe that immigration is a real concern, compared to 57% of independents and 76% of Republicans. That is a high number of independents who are deeply worried about immigration, and that number is up from 53% in 2023 and 49% in 2022. Democrats, meanwhile, are still stuck down in the mid-thirties when it comes to policy goals.
This is a problem for the Democrats and the White House because they are stuck in this legacy media echo chamber in which the idea for them is to double down on the base. They&#8217;re ignoring all of it.
On Tuesday, the White House was asked about <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/senseless-and-avoidable-tragedy-laken-rileys-mom-speaks-out-cites-christian-faith" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Laken Riley&#8217;s murder</a>. She was the young woman who was allegedly killed near the University of Georgia by an illegal immigrant. And the White House tried to blame Donald Trump.
That dog is not going to hunt. The president of the United States is Joe Biden. He needs to close the border and everybody knows it.
This relates to the reality of today&#8217;s modern politics. Everyone in the media is convinced that the Right-wing has gone crazy, they&#8217;ve gone too far Right, and they&#8217;re picking crazy candidates — and there is some truth to that. If you look at the last round of senatorial races, Republicans picked some terrible candidates in winnable races, and then they lost those races.
But Democrats are now doing the same. We have a game of chicken in which both sides have decided to put the radical brick on the accelerator and then aim the cars at each other.
The question is, who is going to pull away first before the cars crash? Whoever pulls away first in this case actually wins. It is not as though if you just continue along that path and the other guy pulls away, you win. It&#8217;s the opposite.
In fact, this game of chicken has both cars aimed at the cliff. Which side is going to stop before the cliff at all? Forget about getting close to the edge. Who&#8217;s going to stop at all?
The Democrats threw out Kyrsten Sinema — who left the party and became an independent even though she would still caucus with them — in favor of hard-Left Ruben Gallego. Arizona used to be a largely red state. Then the Arizona Republican Party decided they were going to shoot themselves directly in the chest by embracing every form of election questioning they possibly could, alienating every moderate in the entire state and electing two Democratic senators and a Democratic governor.
The problem is that the underlying political character of the state of Arizona remains purple. There&#8217;s a reason why, until very recently, both senators were purple to red senators. It was John McCain until he passed away and then Jeff Flake, and both were replaced by Democrats who have attempted to act as a sort of bluish purple. Sinema was so purple that she eventually just went purple and decided to declare herself an independent. But then she decided not to run for reelection because the Democratic Party had basically cast her out, and they decided to primary her.
If only Republicans had nominated someone who had not run for governor, lost, and then claimed that she won for the last year and a half. That would have helped. But they didn&#8217;t do that. They ran Kari Lake. So it&#8217;s Kari Lake versus Ruben Gallego, Clash of the Titans.
Whoever seizes the middle ground is going to win these elections. But in some cases, both parties seem to be running away from middle ground.
<h4><a href="https://onelink.to/dwapp" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILY WIRE APP</a></h4>
And in the presidential race, it&#8217;s Biden who&#8217;s running away from the middle ground while Trump is reaching over and grabbing it.
The secret about Trump is that he is politically moderate and rhetorically extreme. But many of the people who have been running are rhetorically extreme and politically extreme, which is not what Americans prefer.
Rhetorically extreme only works for Donald Trump. It really does not work for anyone else.
Trump is one of one in the same way that Barack Obama for Democrats was one of one.
You cannot be Trump. There is no one who can out-Trump Trump. There&#8217;s nobody who can even be in that same category. Trump is a stand-up comedian who became president of the United States because he&#8217;s extraordinarily entertaining. He is camera-magnetic. He is always funny. He&#8217;s an entertainer who became a politician, not a politician trying to be an entertainer.
All of those things are things no other politician can hold a candle to because he&#8217;s in a completely different category.

Former White House Press Secretary used her MSNBC platform on Tuesday evening to mock voters who say they are worried about illegal immigration — an effort that was gleefully aided by two of her colleagues on the left-leaning cable news network, Rachel Maddow and Joy Reid.
Psaki joined a panel discussion breaking down Super Tuesday&#8217;s primary results and exit polls, and she couldn&#8217;t resist taking a shot specifically at voters in Virginia who are worried about the chaotic situation at the southern border.

Critics were quick to point out the fact that three years of Biden&#8217;s near-open-border policies — coupled with the fact that red border state governors had been sending illegal immigrants to blue &#8220;sanctuary cities&#8221; and the Biden administration had been quietly flying illegal immigrants all over the country — had turned every state (Virginia included) into a border state.

Jen Psaki Mocks Voters Worried About Illegal Immigration

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) floated a new theory during a recent interview with MSNBC host Jen Psaki, claiming that Russian President Vladimir Putin was probably holding &#8220;something financial&#8221; over former President Donald Trump.
The topic came up during an interview that aired Monday evening on the former White House Press Secretary&#8217;s show, and Pelosi was first to broach the subject.
&#8220;What does he have on Donald Trump that he has to constantly be catering to Putin? Telling Putin go into these countries, NATO countries,&#8221; Pelosi mused.

&#8220;What do you think? We’re all wondering this question, Speaker Pelosi, what do you think Putin has on him? I mean, it sure seems like something, as you’ve said a few times, given that he refuses to criticize him, that he seems to be a fanboy of him. Are you worried?&#8221; Psaki asked.
&#8220;First of all, we must be sure that he does not step one foot into the White House. Not as president or not as anything. He has brought disgrace to the White House, to these presidents,&#8221; Pelosi responded, getting sidetracked by thoughts of Presidents Day and the late President Abraham Lincoln.
&#8220;I talked about George Washington, it&#8217;s also Presidents Week for Abraham Lincoln,&#8221; Pelosi said, derailing momentarily to tell a story about Lincoln&#8217;s assassination and the words &#8220;one country, one destiny&#8221; that were embroidered in the coat he was wearing the night he died. That coat was <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/abraham-lincolns-coat-and-its-hidden-bloody-stories/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">initially made</a> for his second inauguration. &#8220;He gave his life to unify our country.&#8221;

&#8220;Now we have someone who had the honor of serving in the White House, didn&#8217;t consider it an honor, didn&#8217;t consider his oath of office to protect and defend the Constitution, and on this week speaking out the way he did about [Alexei] Navalny shows you that he is a person without values. He looks like he is going to be a person without dollars either, but the values are what concern us,&#8221; Pelosi said. &#8220;I don&#8217;t know what he has on him, but I think it&#8217;s probably financial, I think it&#8217;s probably financial — either something financial or something on the come — something that he expects to get.&#8221;

Pelosi Floats Theory That Putin Has 'Something Financial' On Trump In Rambling Interview

Vladimir Putin

Former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki suggested that perhaps an investigation into special counsel Robert Hur was warranted following his report on President Joe Biden&#8217;s handling of classified materials.
Psaki, now an MSNBC host, put the question to Biden&#8217;s personal attorney Bob Bauer after Hur released his report — in which he concluded that Biden did willfully take and retain classified documents without authorization but should not be charged, adding that significant lapses in memory would likely lead a jury to believe he was simply getting old and forgetful.
The former White House official responded to Bauer&#8217;s initial assessment — namely that Hur&#8217;s investigation had been too broad and too far-reaching — by asking whether the special counsel should be investigated for over-stepping.
&#8220;You know, one of the points that you’ve made and other legal minds have said about this report is that it kind of goes, of course, outside of the scope of norms. It goes — his reporting and who he talked to went outside of what would be normal, even for a special counsel,&#8221; she began. &#8220;Do you think that should be investigated or looked into? Because the judicial system, the judiciary is kind of not a positive view necessarily by the American public at this point.&#8221;
<a href="https://onelink.to/dwapp" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" aria-describedby="sk-tooltip-9096" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://onelink.to/dwapp&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1707591998756000&amp;usg=AOvVaw25BBjfj8wpQhA6F0A4qnyA">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP</a>
&#8220;Well, in the role that I have, all I can do is point it out, which is you had an investigation that ran for 15 months, which could have been concluded in just a few months. There was never any questions the president had not engaged in criminal wrongdoing. He was the self-reporting party here. He had turned the documents over upon discovery, cooperated in every respect,&#8221; Bauer asserted — in spite of the report&#8217;s conclusion that Biden had, in fact, acted outside the law with regard to the classified documents.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
&quot;The special counsel is bound by the norms &amp; policies of the department, like any other prosecutor… He is to comply with those norms and policies. And he didn&#39;t.&quot;

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
&#8220;And yet somehow in this report, the special counsel felt compelled to engage in this irrelevant, unfounded, and often pejorative commentary. And I think it’s clear that that commentary is inconsistent with department norms,&#8221; Bauer continued, suggesting that comments about Biden&#8217;s memory lapses were designed to be hurtful rather than to provide a reasonable explanation for not moving forward with prosecution.

Last month, Hunter Biden was <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/house-oversight-subpoenas-hunter-biden-presidents-brother-and-ex-business-associate" target="_blank" rel="noopener">subpoenaed</a> to appear for a deposition as part of the corruption-focused impeachment probe into his father, which is looking at the Biden family&#8217;s business dealings, as well as how the Department of Justice has handled its <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/prosecutor-accused-of-stymying-hunter-biden-probe-reveals-departure-from-doj" target="_blank" rel="noopener">criminal investigation</a> into Hunter Biden. Others have been dealt subpoenas, too, including the president&#8217;s brother James Biden.
Hunter Biden did show up on Capitol Hill on Wednesday, when his deposition was scheduled to take place, yet he used the opportunity to publicly demand House Republicans provide him a public hearing instead of a closed-door interview.

&#8220;I&#8217;m here today to make sure the House committee&#8217;s illegitimate investigations of my family do not proceed on distortions, manipulated evidence, and lies,&#8221; Biden said.
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre <a href="https://twitter.com/RNCResearch/status/1735030307974242508" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told reporters</a> that President Biden was &#8220;familiar&#8221; with what Hunter Biden was going to say at his press event, but declined to offer any more details when pressed on whether the commander in chief tried to talk his son out of violating a congressional subpoena.
House Republicans have indicated they are willing to have Hunter Biden testify in a public hearing — but only after a deposition. Now impeachment investigators are saying Hunter Biden will face contempt of Congress proceedings.
Shortly after the first son&#8217;s press event, the House elected to formally authorize the impeachment inquiry in a party-line <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/house-votes-to-formally-authorize-biden-impeachment-inquiry" target="_blank" rel="noopener">vote</a> that Republicans argued would give legal weight to their subpoenas.
President Biden, who is seeking re-election next year, responded with a lengthy statement that accused House Republicans of &#8220;attacking me with lies&#8221; and &#8220;choosing to waste time on this baseless political stunt&#8221; that is &#8220;not supported by facts.&#8221;

House Dem Calls For Trump To Be ‘Eliminated’ — After Condemning ‘Dangerous’ Rhetoric

House Dem Calls For Trump To Be 'Eliminated' — After Condemning 'Dangerous' Rhetoric

House Democrats

Former White House Press Secretary and current MSNBC host Jen Psaki slammed new House Speaker Mike Johnson for his evangelical Christianity, saying his political ideology should “scare us.”
Speaking to Fox News, Johnson had said, “I am a Bible-believing Christian. Someone asked me today in the media; they said, ‘It’s curious; people are curious. What does Mike Johnson think about any issue under the sun?’ I said, ‘Well, go pick up a Bible off your shelf and read it.’ That’s my worldview.”
In his first speech as House Speaker, Johnson stated:
<blockquote>
I believe that scripture, the Bible, is very clear that God is the one that raises up those in authority. He raised up each of you. All of us. And I believe that God has allowed and ordained each and every one of us to be here at this specific moment. This is my belief. I believe that each one of us has a huge responsibility today to use the gifts God has given us to serve the extraordinary people of this great nation, and they deserve it.
</blockquote>
“You heard that right,” Psaki <a href="https://grabien.com/story.php?id=445737&amp;utm_source=cliplist&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=cliplist20231030&amp;utm_content=story445737" target="_blank" rel="noopener">quavered</a> on MSNBC. “The Bible doesn’t just inform his worldview, it is his worldview. In fact, during his first speech in his new job, Johnson suggested that his election as speaker was an act of God. Talk about a bit of a humblebrag there. So what exactly has God apparently called on Mike Johnson to do? Well, his views on policy are essentially what you’d expect from a religious fundamentalist. They’re more divisive than they are divine.
“But it’s not just his political ideology that should scare us,” Psaki <a href="https://www.msnbc.com/inside-with-jen-psaki/gops-new-house-speaker-mike-johnson-trump-wolf-suit-rcna122551" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote</a> on the MSNBC website. “Johnson is basically a Christian fundamentalist. He believes that America is a Christian nation, and that those values should be reflected in our interpretation of the Constitution.”
“His ideas of what America should be are completely out of line with what America actually is,” she insisted.
Johnson’s Christian faith was <a href="https://www.nola.com/news/politics/mike-johnsons-politics-are-defined-by-his-christian-faith/article_8e533446-74ee-11ee-ab51-a3876f070acc.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">forged</a> at the age of 12, in September 1984. He was the oldest child of firefighter James “Pat” Johnson, who went into a warehouse to cap a leak. An explosion left Pat Johnson with burns over 80% of his body and he was given a 10% chance to live. His recovery after six operations and numerous infections inspired his son, who recalled in 2015, &#8220;I saw an actual miracle of my father surviving when they said that he shouldn&#8217;t. It made me a person of very deep faith.&#8221;
“His personal commitment to Jesus Christ is at the core of who he is and the foundation of the work he does,” Gene Mills, the president of Louisiana Family Forum, the state’s top faith-based conservative group, stated of Johnson.

White House Press Secretary-turned MSNBC host Jen Psaki faced a virtual tsunami of backlash over what she apparently believed was a simple claim about abortion rights in the United States.
The comment stemmed from a conversation that took place Wednesday evening at the first GOP debate of the 2024 primary. Former Governor Nikki Haley (R-SC) led off with a challenge directed at the White House.
&#8220;I would love for someone to ask Biden and Kamala Harris: Are they for 38 weeks, are they for 39 weeks, are they for 40 weeks? Because that’s what the media needs to be asking,&#8221; Haley said.
&#8220;What the Democrats are trying to do on this issue is wrong — to allow abortion all the way up to the moment of birth,&#8221; Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL) added.
&#8220;No one supports abortion up until birth,&#8221; Psaki posted via X. The deluge that followed was swift and immediate from critics pointing out that, yes, there were people who supported abortion up until the moment of birth — and all of them were from her side of the political aisle.

As the great Tina Turner once said, &#8220;What&#8217;s love got to do with it?&#8221; Well, as it relates to the GOP&#8217;s &#8220;dogged investigation&#8221; of the Biden family crime saga, love doesn&#8217;t have anything to do with it.
Yet for former Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-MO), that&#8217;s what the entire fuss is about — as she sees it.
On Wednesday evening, after Hunter Biden&#8217;s plea deal completely derailed thanks to Judge Maryellen Noreika, former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki used her MSNBC prime time show to push propaganda for her old boss. She brought on her comrade McCaskill as a guest.
At no point in the interview did Psaki inform her viewers that on Wednesday the Department of Justice admitted Hunter is being <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/doj-reveals-hunter-biden-still-under-federal-investigation-potential-fara-violations">investigated</a> for potential Foreign Agent Registration Act (FARA) violations and could be charged.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
Psaki did not inform her viewers that the DOJ admitted Hunter is being investigated for potential Foreign Agent Registration Act violations and could be charged (not good for Joe).
And she left out that the plea agreement would grant him near-universal immunity for future… <a href="https://t.co/izvArNxJjp">https://t.co/izvArNxJjp</a>

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Furthermore, Psaki left out that the plea agreement in its past form would have granted Biden near-universal immunity for future charges — which is a major reason why the judge didn&#8217;t accept the deal.  However, as several former federal prosecutors have pointed out, Noreika did not accept the deal because the DOJ-Biden agreement was unprecedented and would have effectively been universal immunity, tying her and other judge&#8217;s hands in the event Hunter receives future charges. Yet Psaki used the segment to push the notion that it was former President Donald J. Trump&#8217;s DOJ — not Biden&#8217;s DOJ — that was corrupt and did the president&#8217;s bidding.
If you thought that was bad, it paled in comparison to McCaskill&#8217;s take on the situation. The ex-senator claimed that Republicans would respond to the entire fiasco by trying &#8220;to indict a father for loving his son, who has been addicted to drugs and/or alcohol and without evidence of the father doing anything other than loving his son.&#8221;
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

&nbsp;
She also said that the DOJ and Hunter&#8217;s attorneys were worried that Trump would get re-elected and revoke the plea deal. So, she argued, this plea deal was arranged so that the judge would be the arbiter if Hunter violated his diversion program. The judge wasn&#8217;t comfortable with that — as McCaskill saw it — thus rejecting the plea deal.
Of course, that doesn&#8217;t pass the smell test. As William Shipley, an attorney and former federal prosecutor saw it, Noreika knew something was amiss with the deal.

&#8220;Judges see so many plea agreements in the course of just a single year they realize immediately when something isn&#8217;t right, and then they ask questions,&#8221; he tweeted. &#8220;That&#8217;s what happened here. She realized something wasn&#8217;t kosher and she may issue a &#8216;Show Cause&#8217; Order asking for an explanation of why the two linked issues were placed in separate documents and then did not call attention to one another.&#8221;
&#8220;This was a &#8216;hidden&#8217; global plea agreement — and the fact that they tried to pull that off is all the GOP House needs to impeach Merrick Garland,&#8221; he added.

It appears that the broad nature of the deal was &#8220;hidden&#8221; to shield from the public that Hunter would be effectively granted immunity for any future FARA violations.
Yet, in McCaskill&#8217;s telling, the FARA portion of it is a small matter.
&#8220;And frankly, they&#8217;ll probably work out if he&#8217;s got immunity from FARA, the federal lobbying statute,&#8221; McCaskill said of what Biden&#8217;s legal team and the DOJ will do next.
Psaki never asked why that would need to be worked out — nor why Hunter would be in violation of FARA.
Nobody should have expected anything different from the likes of Psaki and McCaskill, but the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/cbs-passport-propaganda-and-trump-beware-the-government-media-complex" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Government-Media Complex</a> in action is always breathtaking to watch.

The potential banking crisis is so bad that it got President Joe Biden out of bed at 9 a.m. to do his job.
Former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki, now a host on MSNBC, said Monday she was surprised to see her old boss delivering a speech on the state of the U.S. banking system. Biden likely wanted to assure the public before the stock market opened, although bank stocks were promptly pummeled anyway.
&#8220;Now, it&#8217;s important to note, President Biden does nothing at 9 a.m. He is a night owl,&#8221; she said. &#8220;So the fact that he is doing this at 9 a.m. speaks to how vital the White House recognizes it is.&#8221;

But Psaki&#8217;s claim that Biden&#8217;s work habits differed from those of former presidents Obama and Trump, who were known to work late into the night, did not jibe with prior reports.
&#8220;Unlike his most recent predecessors – night owls who spent the dark hours reading briefing materials, Biden is more of an early-to-bed type,&#8221; a 2021 CNN article claimed.

Other reports indicate that Biden has a pretty leisurely morning: Maybe a cup of coffee.

When Biden isn&#8217;t at the White House, he can often be found taking long weekends at his Delaware beach house. Biden has now spent roughly 40% of his time in the Oval Office on vacation. On those trips, there&#8217;s reason to believe that he&#8217;s using classified documents to house-train his newest dog, Commander.
Whatever the case, Biden was up and at &#8217;em Monday morning to make sure that Silicon Valley Bank&#8217;s depositors were taken care of. It seems that <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/too-woke-to-fail-the-perfect-leftist-storm-preceding-silicon-valley-bank-bailout" target="_blank" rel="noopener">when his potential donors</a> are troubled, nothing can stop him from coming to the rescue.
In his haste though, Biden could actually be making the situation worse in the long haul. Since the Biden administration is moving to make Silicon Valley Bank whole, 2024 presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy argued the president was sending the wrong message to bankers.
&#8220;Crony capitalism &amp; fear-mongering reign supreme in America,&#8221; he tweeted. &#8220;The FDIC only insures deposits up to $250,000. By selectively changing the rules after the fact for SVB, the U.S. government now incentivizes greater risk-taking by banks &amp; depositors in the future&#8230;&#8221;

So, maybe it would have been better if Biden had got some extra shut-eye this weekend instead of working overtime for once in his life. Instead, he chose to put his best foot forward today and earned the praise for going to work at 9 o&#8217;clock like the rest of us.
What a leader.

Former White House Press Secretary <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jen-psaki" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jen Psaki</a> has landed her own Sunday talk show.
In a press release Thursday, MSNBC announced that the Biden administration&#8217;s former top communicator will debut her own talk show, &#8220;Inside with Jen Psaki,&#8221; beginning March 19. The network also announced that she will debut a show on streaming platforms and social media, and will contribute a regular column to its morning newsletter. Psaki left the Biden administration to join the liberal cable news network <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/jen-psaki-to-leave-white-house-join-msnbc-report" target="_blank" rel="noopener">last year</a>.
&#8220;Inside with Jen Psaki will leverage Psaki’s wide-ranging expertise to tackle the biggest issues of the week, featuring one-on-one interviews with newsmakers,&#8221; MSNBC said in its <a href="https://www.nbcumv.com/mediavillage/interactive/2929fed4187b40648b79a9839e70e91fproduct169208/index.html#/brand/283f55c2-f92b-4425-afc2-1d901cd2c77b/press-releases/7f0fed9f-d8ec-4b30-a808-b5b37c5631ff" target="_blank" rel="noopener">press release</a>. &#8220;Each Sunday, she will break down and make sense of the most complex public policy discussions happening in the Nation’s Capital from the debt ceiling to the political campaign trail to the war in Ukraine and more.&#8221;
The new show will also have an original segment entitled &#8220;Weekend Routine,&#8221; in which Psaki will follow public figures around to see a day in their lives. &#8220;Psaki will pull back the curtain on the everyday lives of notable lawmakers and influential thought leaders,&#8221; the press release stated. &#8220;She will shadow each newsmaker as they move through their usual activities discussing their work, careers and personal lives, spotlighting a unique and often unseen side.&#8221;
Psaki will continue to be a regular contributor and panelist across the left-wing cable network&#8217;s regular programming, especially with regard to the 2024 presidential election, the network continued. She will continue her presence in MSNBC&#8217;s primetime coverage of major news events, and will continue to appear on NBC News&#8217; broadcast TV mainstays like the “TODAY” show and “Meet the Press.”
Psaki reacted to the press release on <a href="https://twitter.com/jrpsaki/status/1628056468204277760" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Twitter</a>. &#8220;Let&#8217;s do this&#8230;looking forward to Sunday, March 19th,&#8221; she wrote. &#8220;We have been working on some fun and different features&#8230;and can&#8217;t wait to dig into all of the news.. [sic] see you soon.&#8221;
Psaki&#8217;s new show adds to MSNBC&#8217;s Sunday lineup, which already includes “The Sunday Show with Jonathan Capehart.” Psaki has also been a regular panelist on “<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/jen-psaki-biden-ramping-up-attacks-on-maga-republicans-because-its-election-season-and-the-gloves-are-off" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Meet the Press</a>,” NBC News&#8217; long-running Sunday talk show. And Psaki is not the first former member of the Biden administration to receive a hosting gig on MSNBC: <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/msnbc-hires-former-kamala-harris-spokesperson" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Symone Sanders</a>, former senior adviser and chief spokesperson for Vice President Kamala Harris, was hired by the network to host her own show, “The Choice from MSNBC,” on NBC&#8217;s Peacock streaming service. NBC has not stopped there: former White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain told <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2023/02/21/business/media/jen-psaki-msnbc.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The New York Times</a> that NBC reached out to him about taking an on-air position, but he turned them down.
Psaki&#8217;s hiring was met with some <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/nbc-staffers-complain-about-msnbc-hiring-jen-psaki-report" target="_blank" rel="noopener">controversy</a> among NBC staffers when it was first announced last year, so much so that network President Noah Oppenheim held an impromptu phone meeting with staffers who felt that hiring her tarnished the NBC News brand. “Here’s what he was saying: They have perspective programming,&#8221; one person who was on the call told CNN at the time. &#8220;This was done on the perspective programming side. Not anything that reflects on NBC News.”
“People wanted answers on what NBC’s role was in this and NBC News had no role in this,&#8221; the person added. &#8220;This is MSNBC’s perspective programming.”
