Jen Psaki civilly lays waste to reporter as she schools him on Americans' infrastructure wants

Once again, Jen Psaki had to challenge a reporter's false premise and then school him on the question he asked. She continues to be effective at her job as the White House Press Secretary. Today she had to tackle a reporter who seemed to remain in the whole modal of defining bipartisanship.

'egbertowillies' does such a great job of breaking down the issues and making it clear what is happening.

But, (yeah, maybe I AM leaning this way!) Secretary Psaki just KICKS ASS - and in a way that a sane, intelligent, reasonable person could truly understand and appreciate!

Great stuff here, and 'food' for us to continue to support J&K!!!

But C.J. had the advantage of having Aaron Sorkin writing both the press's questions and her answers.

Actually having the advantage of writing both questions and answers - PRICELESS!!

(And DAMN, listening to her: "How did she KNOW that was coming - and 'BOY, did she KICK ASS!'&quot

is that they coordinate their "agendas", taking their common marching orders from the RNC/hate radio/Fox News to establish their Right Wing talking points. If they're disseminating their talking points via Faux Snooze (rather than, say, email among ReThug caucus members), an on-the-ball Press Secretary would likely have some (poor, much-to-be-pitied) staffer assigned to monitor them.
