SAD! UNFAIR! Honest Kayleigh McEnany to be replaced by Obama/Biden admin alum Jen Psaki!

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/biden-hires-all-female-senior-communications-team/2020/11/29/5b60b58e-3277-11eb-a997-1f4c53d2a747_story.html



WILMINGTON, Del. — Jennifer Psaki, a veteran Democratic spokeswoman, will be Joe Biden’s White House press secretary, one of seven women who will fill the upper ranks of his administration’s communications staff. It is the first time that all of the top aides tasked with speaking on behalf of an administration and shaping its message will be female.

Biden’s press team will be led by Kate Bedingfield, a longtime Biden aide who served as his campaign communications director and will hold the same title in his White House.

Biden will also break several barriers on key economic policy positions including the nomination of Neera Tanden as director of the influential Office of Management and Budget. Tanden, the chief executive of the left-leaning Center for American Progress, would be the first woman of color to oversee OMB.

Biden also is expected to appoint Princeton University labor economist Cecilia Rouse as chair of the three-member Council of Economic Advisers, with economists Jared Bernstein and Heather Boushey serving as the other members. Rouse would be the first woman of color to chair the council.

It’s truly refreshing to see integrity, competence, and professionalism return to the WH and executive branch.

Welcome Jennifer Psaki!

She is the real thing and not a Barbie Doll with make up applied with a heavy hand or spatula. Oh, no cross either. Praise Jaysus.

They're looking AT something. They're not looking through something.
Most of the ardent trumpets have the latter, vacant look.

She's capable of focusing on the person to whom she's speaking.
Maganinny creeper you out. And her look isn't as creepy as a bachmann, or Stevie Miller.
I can imagine what they made you feel!

She's 100-percent evil, a liar, Trump enabler, fake Christian...name the bad thing you can possibly be, and McEnany is that in spades. But, she does look pretty good.

Remember, THIS was the highest attendance at an inauguration EVER!!! In the history of HISTORY!!1! Of course you lying liars say it's less because of pictures and "evidence." But it was the greatest inauguration of all time in this or any other universe!! PERIOD!!!!!

I'm paraphrasing, but not by much.

It goes: Spicer, Scaramucci, Huckabee-Sanders, Grisham, McEnany

...is that we'll go back to regularly scheduled pressers in a regular room that can accomodate enough reporters. No more sporadic name calling meet ups with a select few in a hallway closet.

Back to normal. The way it was for decades. Will she tell any lies? It's kind of in the job description, but she won't tell us it's raining when we can see out the window.
