Return of the King: Doocy Goes Guns Blazing Post-Paternity Leave
Fox White House correspondent Peter Doocy finally made his return to the White House Briefing Room Monday after paternity leave and, given his long time away, he came out guns blazing on Biden family corruption and even the latest attempt by the federal bureaucracy to further encroach on the lives of ordinary Americans.

NewsBusters Podcast: Hero Acosta vs. 'Why Won't Ateba Stop Shouting?'

Wegmann, Jiang Press KJP on Hunter Biden as Others Lob Woke Softies
On Wednesday after the shocking collapse of Hunter Biden’s plea deal, there were a few White House reporters who grilled Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre in her abbreviated turn at the podium (due to her use of John Kirby as her crutch for nearly 35 of the almost 58-minute briefing) on the events in Delaware as well as ongoing questions about Biden family corruption.

ICYMI: Jacqui Battles KJP Over Anti-Semitic Dems, Lefties Blast Abbott
On Tuesday afternoon, the White House press briefing with the ever-inept Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre had it all with some tense exchanges (Fox’s Jacqui Heinrich over anti-Semitism in the Democratic Party), softballs (the AP and USA Today on alleged treatment of illegal immigrants), and the delusional (a far-left blogger asking about potential violence from Trump supporters).…

KJP Suffers Mini-Meltdown When Reporter Asks If Cocaine Was the Bidens
Friday marked only the second White House press briefing of the week in which reporters could question Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre about the bag of cocaine found in the West Wing.

Column: Biden Scandal Questions Go Down the Latrine Jean-Pierre
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre has received over 250 scandal questions in the first six months of 2023. She's only directly answered six. So much for Joe Biden's promise to "bring transparency and truth back to the government."

Does She Even Try? KJP Plays Clueless to Reporters Over WH Cocaine
Whether it’s the Biden documents scandal, allegations of Biden family corruption, or the latest twist in Hunter Biden’s life of ruin to name a few, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre has consistently stuck to the theme of playing dumb when faced with even gentle questions from the liberal White House press corps. Such was the case Wednesday concerning the bag of cocaine found in…

STUDY: Jean-Pierre Answered Exactly ONE Question About Hunter All Year
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre has been widely criticized for her inability to field even basic inquiries about the scandals plaguing President Biden.

NB Podcast: Nets Mention Biden Scandals, But Buried by Trump Tsunami
Associate editor Nick Fondacaro and I reunited for Wednesday’s show to break down the NewsBusters team's new time counts of network coverage (or lack thereof) on the Trump indictment and allegations of impropriety from the Biden family. While the Biden numbers surprisingly aren't zero, the Trump numbers still dwarf them like a skyscraper-sized tsunami.

Heinrich, Nelson Welcome New KJP Stand-in by Grilling Her on Hunter
Sadly depriving the public of the comically partisan White House Deputy Press Secretary Andrew Bates, the Biden regime trotted out Principal Deputy Press Secretary Olivia Dalton on Tuesday to fill in for Karine Jean-Pierre. In turn, Dalton faced some hardballs about the Biden economy, a faux-hardball from a Team Biden apple polisher, and new queries about Hunter Biden’s life of corruption.

Lone Soldier: Wegmann Presses KJP on Hunter Attending WH State Dinner
Real Clear Politics’s Philip Wegmann closed out Monday’s White House press briefing as the only reporter in the press corps to grill the ever-inept Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre over what’s, at minimum, a questionable lack of ethics by President Biden having son Hunter attend last week’s state dinner for the Indian prime minister with Attorney General Merrick Garland.

KJP Rips EWTN Reporter for ‘Irresponsible’ Question on Transgenderism
Transgenderism was the center of attention for key moments in Tuesday’s White House press briefing as Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre denounced the “disrespectful,” “not appropriate,” and “unacceptable” behavior of a transgender woman (a man pretending to be a woman) flashing their upper region at a White House pride event while also trashing pro-life reporter Owen Jensen for an “…

NBC Ignores Own Exclusive Report on KJP Caught Violating Federal Law
On Monday, NBC News had an exclusive report on their website revealing that President Biden’s incompetent press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre (KJP) was found to be in violation of the Hatch Act, a law enacted to strictly limit government officials from getting involved in campaigns.
