White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre insisted that President Joe Biden is “absolutely” fit to serve another term if he chose to do so.
In the first daily press briefing since her boss mysteriously disappeared for nearly a week and surrendered to the Democrat elite coup against him, the regime spox was her typically evasive and dishonest self hours before the lame duck leader spoke to the nation from the Oval Office.
“Look, he didn’t step down from campaigning or from running because he didn’t believe he can serve in a second term. That is not why,” she told the press, denying that Biden’s health played a part in his decision to end his reelection campaign.

“So today, the president believes that he is capable, fully capable of serving in the office that he currently has now and for the next 4 and a half years if he wanted to?” Jean-Pierre was asked by a reporter.
“Absolutely,” replied the historic first black lesbian immigrant to hold the high-profile job.
Jean-Pierre also rejected the idea that the 81-year-old stepped down for health reasons and told the press to watch his speech.
“Why is it in the country’s best interest for him to step aside? Does it have to do with his health?” A journalist asked her.
“It has nothing to do with his health,” she stated. “Again, the president’s going to speak to this directly to the American people tonight in prime time. I know many of you all will be watching it…I promise you, he will speak to this, directly to all of you tonight.”
The truth-challenged DEI pixie also clashed with reporters during an extended and at times tense exchange with her top press room adversary, Fox News bulldog Peter Doocy, who pressed her on heir apparent Kamala Harris’s work as Biden’s border czar, a job that the media is now frantically trying to erase.

“One of the decisions he made, President Biden wants Vice President Harris to be the standard bearer of the party now, does she still want to get rid of ICE?” Doocy asked.
Rather than answer the question, Jean-Pierre served up her usual non-answer of a filibuster, deflecting blame for Harris’s failure to show up on Republicans in Congress and former President Donald J. Trump.
“As a partner though, she’s been in charge of root causes of migration for years,” Doocy pointed out. “She has never spoken with the Border Patrol Chief Jason Owens or the Border Patrol chief before him, Raul Ortiz. What should that tell us about her leadership style?”
“She was supposed to be doing root causes dealing with diplomacy,” she replied. “Diplomacy. That’s what her job was supposed to be,” she replied, like the rest of the media, giving over to Harris. “Diplomatic, that’s the job,” she added before again shifting the blame for Biden’s “border bloodbath” to Republicans.
At one point, another reporter, Newsmax’s James Rosen, became frustrated over the time given to Doocy and tried to interrupt.
“You control the briefing room, not Peter, come on,” he told Jean-Pierre. “Unbelievable.”
Getting off one last question, Doocy asked about the Democrat coup against Biden.
“Were there any names that came forward that surprised you of Democratic officials in the last week who stabbed President Biden in the back?” Doocy asked.
“I don’t have anything else to say,” Jean-Pierre responded before moving on to another reporter, and it wasn’t Rosen.
During the briefing, Jean-Pierre also insisted that Biden isn’t a lame duck even if Americans would have to be deaf to not hear the sound of quacking coming from the Oval Office.
