One key piece of information that's eluded "journalists" and talking heads regarding the Parkinson's expert is that President Biden signed the National Plan to End Parkinson’s Act on 7/2, which is a pretty compelling reason why a PARKINSON'S EXPERT visited the White House over the past few months. whitehouse.gov/briefing…

the WH needs to get out and SAY that. it infuriates me when they don't get ahead of this kind of shit. it only grows. fuck.
I think they need to take more control in the WH press briefings. "Biden's annual physical confirms he's neurologically fine" or whatever. That's it. Move on to the next subject of his accomplishments or what he's working on today. Don't play into the ridiculousness.
Did you see the WH press briefing yesterday? They attacked KJP like the gang of shouty ugly bullies they’ve become. They won’t allow her to move on after she’s responded in good faith to their repetitive whiny insulting questions. She should just quietly tell them she’s not going to engage with their disrespectful behavior, fold up her briefings file, and leave the podium.
Exactly— leave the podium and say,” I will be back when some of you can act like an adult?!” LDFF White House went 300+ days without a formal press briefing back in 2019?!! Stephanie Grishman never gave a press briefing!
No, but I heard about it. Not sure she's got the right personality for this, so to speak, but what you recommend is EXACTLY how these things should be run from now on. We've got to be assertively moving on from the insanity in EVERYTHING we do from here on out!!
I like Karine, but she doesn’t seem to have the fire and humor of Psaki. I miss her making mincemeat of Peter Douchey.
She's really not the right person. We need someone stronger and always have.
I disagree. I think Karine has a tremendous amount of patience and she demanded respect yesterday when things went awry.She asked for respect for her job and said it isn’t an easy task to come out daily to brief everyone. Let me tell you what happened to her yesterday was racist but she kept her cool. Jen Psaki was brilliant at being press sec’y but Karine just has a different demeanor and she is very intelligent. She isn’t a performer. She is an informer.
I read the Neurologist reports -- Biden has a nerve issue in his foot and ankle -- might explain why he trips sometimes, but doesn't prove a problem with his brain. But since Trump's doctors lied like rugs, Republicans and the NYT assume all doctors are equally unethical.
I read that yesterday, I believe on threads…..but yes——idiots need to report the truth!
Yes Lorraine....the admin doesn't communicate very well...has spokesperson Karinne Pierre said anything at pressers..as I didn't hear her say it.
Needless to say there was zero coverage of THAT event…OMG they don’t report on things that might be ‘good’, not that there is actually any ‘reporting’ going on, too busy with right wing propaganda.
THANK YOU
