Peter Doocy is a thorn in the side of Jen Psaki. Thank goodness for him!

He’s one of the only White House reporters who pushes back on the lies told by the Biden regime.

During the press conference today, Peter Doocy got into a back and forth with Psaki when he asked:

“Why the White House in a statement is calling the Taliban businesslike and professional.”

Psaki replied that “the Taliban was cooperative in facilitating the departure of these American citizens and legal permanent residents from HKIA.”

Doocy then reminded Psaki that the new Afghan Interior Minister Sirajuddin Haqqani is on the FBI’s Most Wanted List:

“But you’re saying the Taliban is businesslike and professional. Their interior minister has a FBI Wanted poster. He’s got a $10 million bounty on his head. That’s…what’s the business?”

Psaki pivoted off of what Doocy said by saying, “We are here to celebrate the return of American citizens who wanted to leave Afghanistan, of legal permanent residents, of Afghans who fought by our side to Qatar successfully on a Qatari airlines flight and in order get them out, we had to work with some members of the Taliban to press them and to work in a businesslike manner to get them out.”

Psaki then said,  “That is what we were stating in this statement.”

Doocy pushed back with a great follow-up question: “And in that statement, it says, “this is a positive first step.” Towards what?”

Psaki answers:  “Towards getting additional people out who want to leave Afghanistan.”
