The sharp inquiry centered around Joe Biden’s decision to withdraw from the 2024 race, with Doocy raising concerns about Biden’s cognitive decline and suggesting a cover-up by White House officials.
Heated exchange between Peter Doocy and KJP
Doocy: Who ordered White House officials to cover up a declining President?
KJP: First of all, there’s been no cover-up; that’s a narrative y’all tried to push pic.twitter.com/Vz9WqRIazC

“It would seem that people in this White House knew that President Biden was slipping and it was hidden from the American people,” Doocy pressed. “So who ordered White House officials to cover up a declining president?”
Jean-Pierre denied the allegations: “Wait. First of all, there’s been no cover-up. I want to be very clear about that. I know that’s the narrative that you all want…”
Despite her attempts to respond, Doocy interjected, further fueling the heated exchange that unfolded between the two.
Eventually, Jean-Pierre reiterated her denial of any cover-up and invited Doocy to listen to Joe Biden’s “incredibly powerful and important” address from the Oval Office later that night.
Interestingly, the exchange took an unexpected turn when Doocy asked Jean-Pierre about her own well-being amidst the recent news cycle. “How are you doing with all of this?” he inquired, seemingly catching the press secretary off-guard.
Amidst laughter, Jean-Pierre responded, “You care about how I feel?”
Doocy didn’t stop there, prodding further by asking if Jean-Pierre planned to stay for a potential “President Harris administration.” Jean-Pierre shot back, “Oh, my goodness. So let me just get through the day. Can I just get through today?”
Peter Doocy is just SAVAGE 🔥🔥
“We’re there why names that came forward that surprised you of Democratic officials in the last week who stabbed President Biden in the back?”

As the exchange drew to a close, Doocy pushed for any names of Democratic officials who may have betrayed Joe Biden in recent days. Jean-Pierre’s response was, “I don’t have anything else to say.”
DOOCY: “Border Czar” Kamala Harris didn’t speak to the last Border Patrol chief and she hasn’t spoken to this Border Patrol chief. Why?

“We should also be looking at Congressional Republicans who got in the way [of Harris doing her job of securing the border].”
Omg…just stop. The lying never ends.
If she couldn’t lie, she would have nothing to say.
