Amid the Biden administration's disastrous withdrawal of American troops from Afghanistan, White House press secretary Jen Psaki went two days without a daily White House press briefing, with the Department of Defense giving daily updates on developments in the region instead.

Trump's former White House press secretary turned Fox News contributor, Kayleigh McEnany, lambasted Psaki for skipping two briefings.


Watch below.

McEnany said:

"Jen Psaki promised us a daily White House press briefing. There isn't one today. There wasn't one Monday. When the going gets tough, the daily press briefing that she promised goes out the window."

Under former President Donald Trump—McEnany's onetime boss—the tradition of daily White House press briefings gradually evaporated until no one expected them at all. Trump's second press secretary, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, went more than six months without a daily briefing. Her successor, Stephanie Grisham, served for more than a year without ever holding one at all.

When McEnany took over, she briefly revived the tradition before going long stretches without a daily briefing yet again. Between October 1 and November 20—as Trump lost the 2020 election then proceeded to falsely claim it was "stolen" from him—McEnany held no briefings at all.

What's more, McEnany did away with using the briefing room as an opportunity to update Americans on what the administration was doing, instead using the pressers as a state-sponsored campaign ad.

So people were amazed at the hypocrisy on display when McEnany slammed Psaki for missing two days.






Others could only laugh.

Nancy Mace Gets Blunt Civics Lesson After Claiming Every Muslim Elected Official Is A 'Trojan Horse'

South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace was called out by CNN anchor Omar Jimenez for her lack of understanding of the First Amendment after she published a series of Islamophobic tweets, including one referring to every Muslim elected official in the country as a "Trojan horse."

Mace's posts came after Abdul El-Sayed won Michigan's Democratic primary for U.S. Senate. El-Sayed, a physician who campaigned on expanding healthcare access, strengthening the economy, and ending unconditional U.S. military aid to Israel, became the first progressive to win a statewide primary in a state carried by President Donald Trump in the 2024 election. He is set to face former Republican Congressman Mike Rogers in November.
