Inside of what with Jen Psaki?

[@cbjones2212]

The best thing about this is Jonathan Katz finding out the truth as soon as he did. The GOP being who they are would have dined out on that story for ages until it disappeared into the background and after the damage was done.

[@cleverusername9369]

Katie Britt needs to step down. This is disgusting

[@shandelebroyles1099]

What's disgusting is you people being dumbed down by the media to think this is what matters and not the millions of kids trafficked and made worse because of Bribem.

[@bleachedwhale]

Lol, she's an Alabama senator, they abhor the concept of Republicans having shame and taking responsibility

[@jonp4846]

She needs to get in line behind so many that need to go. .🙃

[@boatymcboatface4865]

1) No, and 2) How? Odd delivery, to be sure, but everything else she said was 100% deadnuts on. Perhaps try reading the transcript of her speech instead so you're not triggered as soon as you hear her voice?

[@mariagordanier3404]

She lied her butt off. I watched her. Here is one: Biden stopped all deportations. Nope. Here is another: I spoke to a woman. Nope. I could go on.@@boatymcboatface4865

[@TheTomt50]

Thanks for the guest. I particularly appreciate his discussion about how Americans are so ethnocentric that the focus on immigration policy is always about how it impacts Americans. A better starting point would be, how American policy has affected immigrants! I will definitely be checking out Mr. Katz's "Gangsters of Capitalism" as a starting point.

[@chrishyde7798]

Keep speaking the truth! Thank you for this interview.

🇦🇺 The world is laughing at her. 🇦🇺 Well, they would be, if it wasn't so serious!

[@dubyah7308]

the burden of truth is heavier than just lying

[@shandelebroyles1099]

Thing is, no matter what she said, it's still a fact, kid's are still being trafficked. It's sad what you people are worried about is her saying whatever. Do you not have enough common sense to think past that and care about those kids??

[@-the_wandering_eremite-]

@@shandelebroyles1099 you clearly do not listen. You obviously did not comprehend what was said here. Nor did you understand the **point** of this video. We are tired of you. We are tired of trying to explain things to you, we are tired of giving you the benefit of the doubt. We have all realized it doesn’t matter what we say to you. You simply reject any answers that don't comport with what you already want to believe. Republicans/MAGA are the people of the lie. Discourse is pointless with liars.

She came off so melodramatic, it's like someone who failed high school acting class.

[@naliniganguly649]

That is why investigative journalism is so necessary. She also said Pres Biden had offered amnesty to thousands of undocumented immigrants, is that true ? Never heard that either.

[@stevenkeel7191]

That was Ronald Reagan that offered amnesty.

[@naliniganguly649]

@@stevenkeel7191 yes Regan was the last republican president who gave amnesty to thousands of undocumented immigrants. But go back to that rebuttal by Britt and she says Biden has promised amnesty, not given amnesty to undocumented immigrants.

[@naliniganguly649]

Her exact words were minutes after taking oath he stopped constructing and announced a plan to give amnesty to millions. It’s been 3 years and I don’t remember that part of his inaugural speech .

She was horrible and her political career should be over. She was not believable. She should become a pundit on MSNBC.
