>> I’M FINE.
>> WHOA!
>> Jesse: OR A WHITE HOUSE PRESS
SECRETARY NO MATTER HOW HARD
THEY TRY CAN’T FORM A COMPLETE
SENTENCE.
>> SO, THE BOARD HAS NEVER
CONVENED.
SO IT NEVER CONVENED AND THE
BOARD IS, UM, IS, YES, THE BOARD
IS, IS PAUSING IN THE SENSE THAT
IT WILL NOT CONVENE.
>> Jesse: WELL, THAT WAS BIDEN’S
CURRENT WHITE HOUSE PRESS
SECRETARY CAREEN JEN PIERRE CAN
PIERRE DOING A BAD JOB.
SHE MAKES KAMALA HARRIS LOOK
COHERENT.
I WOULDN’T WANT TO BE BIDEN
WANTS MOUTHPIECE BIDEN DOESN’T
KNOW WHAT HE IS SAYING HIMSELF.
IMAGINE HOW HARD IT IS TO SPEAK
FOR HIM.
PIERRE HAS ONLY BEEN FOR THIS
JOB IN A MONTH OR.
SO EVERYBODY ALREADY KNOWS SHE
WILL BE REPLACED.
BIDEN TAPPED A TEAR IN THE
HEADLIGHTS TO SPEAK FOR HIS
WHITE HOUSE.
HAS PIERRE EVER MET JOE BIDEN?
IT DOESN’T SEEM LIKE IT.
SHE HAS ABSOLUTELY NO CLUE
WHAT’S GOING ON.
SHE HOLDS HER 48-INCH THICK
BINDER LIKE A BABY HOLDS A
BLANKET.
NO ONE HAS EVER SEEN HER WITHOUT
IT.
IF YOU TAKE AWAY HER BINDER, SHE
WILL PROBABLY CRY.
>> UPDATE THE JUST RECEIVED ON
THE CURRENT INFANT FORMULA
SITUATION ON THE COUNTRY.
>> YEAH.
LET ME SEE IF I HAVE ANYTHING
NEW FOR YOU ON.
THAT WAS UH -- I THINK IT’S BEEN A COUPLE OF DAYS SINCE WE HAVE
A COUPLE OF DAYS SINCE WE HAVE
BEEN ASKED THAT QUESTION.
>> OKAY.
I DON’T HAVE ANYTHING NEW.
>> Jesse: AT LEAST ROMNEY HAD
HAD A BINDER FULL OF WOMEN.
SHE HAD NOTHING.
SHE NEVER DOES.
EMBARRASSING.
SCARY SHE LASTED LONGER THAN
SCARAMUCCI.
REPORTER ASKED FOR UPDATE IT
GETS SO MUCH WORSE.
REMEMBER WHEN THE ADMINISTRATION
WAS PAY THINKING ABOUT PAYING
ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS FOR SNEAKING
INTO THE COUNTRY?
LOOK AT HOW PIERRE HANDLED THIS
FROM PETER.
>> THERE IS A LONG LINE TO GET
INTO THIS COUNTRY LEGALLY.
IS THERE ANY KIND OF DISCUSSION
ABOUT GIVING PEOPLE WHO ARE
COMING HERE THE RIGHT WAY MONEY?
>> WHY WOULD -- WHY WOULD WE BE
GIVING MONEY WHO ARE COMING HERE
THE RIGHT WAY MONEY?
>> WHY ARE YOU GIVING PEOPLE WHO
CAME HERE THE WRONG WAY MONEY?
>> I DON’T UNDERSTAND THE
QUESTION.
>> BUT, OF COURSE, SHE DOESN’T
UNDERSTAND THE QUESTION.
I’M NOT SURE OUR VERY OWN STUPID
SON OF A BITCH PETER DOOCY COULD
BE MORE CLEAR.
WHY WOULD YOU CONSIDER PAYING
ILLEGALS FOR CROSSING THE
BORDER?
I GUESS THE ANSWER WASN’T IN HER
BINDER.
WE CAN LAUGH AT THIS AND CRACK
JOKES BUT IN ALL SERIOUSNESS
IT’S SAD.
"PRIMETIME" PITY’S PIERRE AND
THAT’S AN EMOTION I DON’T OFTEN
FEEL.
SHE IS CLEARLY IN OVER HER HEAD
ESPECIALLY WHEN IT COMES TO
ENERGY CRISIS.
>> WHY NOT DRILL HERE IN THE
U.S. THOUGH?
>> BECAUSE WE DON’T NEED TO DO
THAT.
WHAT WE NEED THEM TO DO WITH THE
OIL THAT’S OUT THERE WE NEED
THEM TO REFINE THE OIL SO THAT
PRICES -- SO THAT CAPACITY COULD
GO UP AND PRICES WOULD GO DOWN,
INHERENTLY GO DOWN.
>> Jesse: SUPPLY CLOSE GOES UP,
PRICES GO DOWN, WHY DIDN’T WE
THINK OF THAT?
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE NEED ANSWERS
NOT A FLUSTERED INTERN READING
FROM A BINDER OF LIES.
[LAUGHTER]
>> WHY IS THE PRESIDENT SAYING
THAT INFLATION IS WORSE
EVERYWHERE BUT HERE?
>> IF YOU LOOK AT GLOBALLY OTHER
COUNTRIES, AND IF YOU LOOK AT
WHERE WE ARE ECONOMICALLY, WHEN
YOU THINK ABOUT THE GROUP G 7 WE
ARE IN A MUCH STRONGER PLACE
THAN WE ARE ECONOMICALLY THAN
THE REST.
>> HE SAYS THAT INFLATION IS
WORSE EVERYWHERE BUT HERE THAT’S
NOT TRUE U.S. HAS WORSE THAN
JAPAN, SAUDI ARABIA, INDIA, WHY
IS HE SAYING THAT.
>> WHAT WE ARE SAYING WHEN YOU
TALK ABOUT INFLATION, IT IS A
GLOBAL THING.
>> Jesse: THE ONLY THING WORSE
THAN NOT BEING COMPETENT IS NOT
BEING TRANSPARENT.
AND THIS ADMINISTRATION IS BOTH.
THEY CAN NEVER JUST GIVE US A
STRAIGHT ANSWER ON ANYTHING.
ESPECIALLY WHEN IT COMES TO
INFLATION.
>> DOES THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION
BEAR SOME RESPONSIBILITY FOR
THIS?
>> SO, FIRST OF ALL, UM, THE
AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN MET THE
MOMENT AND IT HAS PUT US IN A
PLACE WHERE WE CAN ACTUALLY PUT
US IN A PLACE WHERE THE AMERICAN
PEOPLE FEEL -- CAN ACTUALLY --
WE CAN TAKE ON INFLATION.
WHAT I MEAN BY THAT IS -- WE
HAVE SEEN GROWTH, RIGHT, AS I
MENTIONED MORE THAN 8 MILLION
JOBS, AND NOW WE ARE
TRANSITIONING INTO A STEADY
STABLE GROWTH IN ORDER TO TAKE
THIS ON WE HAVE GOT TO HAVE
SOME -- BE IN A GOOD HISTORIC
ECONOMIC PLACE WHICH IS WHERE WE
ARE RIGHT NOW.
>> Jesse: NOTICE WHAT SHE DOES
SHE DOESN’T ACCEPT ANY
RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE FAILURE.
BUT THAT’S WHAT THIS
ADMINISTRATION DOES.
THEY JUST POINT THE FINGER?
PRESIDENT BIDEN ONCE BRAGGED
ABOUT THE STOCK MARKET HITTING
RECORD AFTER RECORD AFTER RECORD
ON MY WATCH.
HOW ABOUT NOW?
>> YOU KNOW PUTIN -- PUTIN PRICE
HIKE, INFLATION COMING OUT OF A
ONCE IN A GENERATION GLOBAL
PANDEMIC, ALL OF THOSE THINGS
PLAY A FACTOR AND, YOU KNOW, BUT
THE THING -- THE WAY THAT WE SEE
THIS IS THAT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE
ARE WELL-POSITIONED TO FACE
THESE CHALLENGES BECAUSE OF THE
ECONOMIC, HISTORIC GAINS THAT WE
HAVE MADE UNDER THIS PRESIDENT.
>> Jesse: IF WE WANTED TO HEAR
LIGHT WEIGHTS REGURGITATE
SLOGANS WE WOULD LISTEN TO
COLLEGE DEMOCRATS BROWN
UNIVERSITY SCREAM INTO BULL
HORNS ON THE QUAD.
WE KNOW WHAT JOE BIDEN IS GOING
TO DO.
HE IS THE PROBLEM.
HE IS THE CAPTAIN OF THE SHIP.
IT’S HARD TO MAKE THE CAPTAIN
LOOK GOOD WHEN HE CAN’T EVEN
SAIL STRAIGHT.
>> A LOT OF MAJOR THINGS WE HAVE
DONE BUT WHAT WE HAVEN’T DONE IS
WE HAVEN’T BEEN ABLE TO
COMMUNICATE IT IN A WAY THAT IS,
UM, -- LET SHE SAY IT ANOTHER
WAY.
>> SEE THAT’S PERFECT BEING ABLE
TO COMMUNICATE IT.
>> Jesse: BIDEN IS RIGHT.
HE CAN’T COMMUNICATE ANYTHING
BECAUSE WHAT CAN YOU SAY,
HONESTLY, IT’S BEEN A MESS AND
EVERYBODY KNOWS IT.
THAT’S WHY YOU SEE SCENES LIKE
THESE ALL THE TIME.
FIRST IT WAS THE EASTER BUNNY
COMING TO THE RESCUE.
DO YOU REMEMBER THAT AND THEN
TODAY IT WAS DR. JILL SWOOPING
IN TO STOP JOE FROM SAYING
SOMETHING FOOLISH.
>> I THINK WE’RE GOING TO BE IN
A POSITION WHERE WE’RE GOING
TO -- OH.
>> INDIA ARE WAITING FOR YOU TO
VISIT INDIA.
>> I HAVE BEEN TO INDIA TWICE
AND I WILL BE BACK TO INDIA MY
RELATIONS IS VERY GOOD.
>> MR. PRESIDENT, MR. PRESIDENT.
>> LOOK, WE GET IT KEEPING BIDEN
IN LINE AND MAKING HIM LOOK GOOD
ISN’T EASY, JILL CAN HARDLY
SWING IT THAT’S WHY THIS
ADMINISTRATION IS DESPERATE FOR
A STRONG QUALIFIED COMMUNICATOR
IN THE PRESS OFFICE.
WAS PIERRE REALLY THE BEST
OPTION FOR PRESS SECRETARY OR
WAS SHE CHOSEN FOR OTHER
REASONS?
WELL, WE HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWING
BECAUSE THE TALENT POOL THERE IS
SO SHALLOW WADE THROUGH IT.
SHE WILL BE BENCHED SOON.
JOHN KIRBY WAS ALREADY CALLED IN
EARLIER THIS WEEK TO BAIL OUT
PIERRE.
IS HE ABOUT TO TAKE OVER THE
STARTING SPOT?
CAN YOU EVEN IMAGINE A WHITE
MALE COMING TO THE RESCUE OF THE
FIRST BLACK LESBIAN PRESS
SECRETARY?
AWKWARD FOR THE DEMOCRATS.
LOOK, WHAT OTHER OPTIONS DO THEY
HAVE?
AMERICA HAS HARD ENOUGH TIME
UNDERSTANDING WHAT BIDEN IS
DOING.
IF IT GETS ANY WORSE, WE’RE
