White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki refused to give Fox News reporter Peter Doocy a straight answer about what the Biden Administration’s actual stance is on the Keystone XL pipeline in light of skyrocketing gas prices.
As The Daily Wire reports:
Fox News White House correspondent Peter Doocy repeatedly asked White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki to give a straight answer as to whether President Joe Biden would ever consider restarting construction on the Keystone XL Pipeline — and she repeatedly gave him the runaround.
Doocy asked three times for a simple “yes or no,” noting at Wednesday’s press briefing that the Biden administration has often said that all options are on the table with regard to dealing with the fallout of the Russian invasion of Ukraine and questioning whether that meant that restarting construction on the Canada-to-the-United-States pipeline was one of those options.
…
Doocy: "Is a restart of the the Keystone XL construction completely off the table as long as Joe Biden is president?"
Psaki: "Well, why don't you tell me what that would help you address?"
Doocy: "I'm asking you if it is an option. You guys say are all options on the table." pic.twitter.com/i4JInd97dz

Doocy: "Is it possible that Joe Biden will ever say, 'you guys can go ahead w/construction of Keystone XL?"
Psaki: "There's no plans for that & it would not address any of the problems we're have currently." (7/7) pic.twitter.com/J6Q7aC6JOr

“Is it possible that Joe Biden will ever say, ‘You guys can go ahead with construction of Keystone XL?”
Once again, Psaki did not directly answer the question — although she did say that there were no plans for that to happen at the current time. “There’s no plans for that and it would not address any of the problems we’re have currently,” she said, moving on to take the next question.
Gas prices has risen dramatically since the start of Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine and the accompanying western sanctions against Russia.
She needs to go! She is the worst press secretary ever! One of those kind of person you’d just like to smack because she’s so cocky and then she grins like she just got over on you! Ughhh!
What a bunch of malarkey. Keystone would deliver the oil at a much lower cost, so yes you redheaded knucklehead, it would assist in lowering the price of that oil.
Pipelines are safer and faster. Warren Buffet was owed by Democrats for funding mail-in-ballots, multiples/copies, all that crap. Any fuel, he gets to deliver it, for a fee of course, which is also mo money!
we are ruled by arrogant, elitist fools
You can say that again!!
pzaki is corrupt like rest of them biden and his administration lie lie lie but we know better HOWS PZAKIS DAUGHTER GOING TO REACT THAT SHES A LIER PERIOD
PSAKI DOESNT MATTER SHES A HUGE LIER
LIAR
Simple: No answer = NO !
Jen Psaki will be a new hire at MSNBC or the new host of the VIEW in 2023, where no one will question her progressive lies!
It’s a known fact that the price of gasoline jumped up as soon as Biden stopped construction of the Keystone XL pipeline. Just by announcing re-opening will help reduce the prices, as well. In terms of “we’re already getting this oil”, I would ask “at what price?” It’s not cheap to truck or rail that much oil across the country.
Right on my Amigo!
AND, It just got a lot more expensive to SHIP said oil.
I quote jan-SUCKY…
“Ahhh, blah <LIE, LIE>… <obfuscate>, <lie>, Blah, <LIE> <SMOKE screen> … Ya’ know, Ahhh… blah, Blah <Lie, LIE>… <dither, lie> Ahhh… <LIE>… Next question <NOT Doocey>…
BULL MANURE – – that’s ALL they give us!!!!
Well how many horrible things does Biden need to do before the impeachment starts. The old guy is useless and the 2 behind him are just as pathetic. We as a country are in deep dodo. God help us
The answer to Doocy’s question was not in Psaki’s playbook so she couldn’t answer. Psaki is an automaton programed to only answer certain specific questions. She has no brain as humans do and thus cannot think!!
she just does not understand the oil industry…or anything else for that matter!!!!
Just like the entire Biden cabal of dummies!
there you have it , the gospel according to “Lying Ginger”
So that follow up question is simple, ‘so if restarting the Keystone XL Pipeline is not going to help immediately then you must have some immediate alternative plans in place then so what are those?’ Or a further follow up would be, ‘Is getting oil from unfriendly countries a quicker solution than opening up more drilling here in America that already has the capacity?’ Followed by an even further follow up, ‘is it more green to drill in America where it is monitored and done with higher standards or drilled in Venezuela or Iran and then shipped here, while we fund regimes that do not protect democracy?’
Poor Psaki, she stepped into the misery of what Trump’s press secretaries endured from Jim Acosta. As the old saying goes: “What comes around goes around”. It couldn’t happen to a better targeted person.
Psaki should be payed quite well for supporting/telling all those lies for Democrats. The problem with lying is you have to remember your lies and lies always change, sometimes into BIGGER lies, more lies added, some subtracted, some that are said to have never been told when Memorex has it recorded and so on!
Liars ALWAYS defer…and, she’s there b/c she lies for the the Biden puppeteers.
Of course, P-Sake is a true to heart democrat ideologue.
Psaki wouldn’t give a straight answer if she was asked whether the sun will rise in the East tomorrow.
It’s a delivery system but would not address any supply problems. WTF Does the little red haired girl even know what she is saying. Do they put the most incomptent people they can find in these positions in this administration.
