While the Democrats spent the last four years attacking the President and claiming they could do a better job, it appears they might not have the slightest idea as to what they are doing. Only a few weeks in, the Democrats are already feeling the stress of running the country. Now, Press Secretary Jen Psaki and the Biden Administration is asking the press to submit their questions before asking them so they could have time to prepare an answer.
Before we move on, it should be noted that the same party who spent the last four years interrupting, antagonizing, and belittling a sitting President now wants to be treated fairly. Not even fairly, they would like members of the press to submit their questions so they could go ahead and have answers ready for them. The Democrats were shocked to find out that isn’t how journalism works.
Since taking the position as Press Secretary, Psaki has already gained a reputation on not answering questions and telling reporters that she will “Circle Back” when she is ready. You might have already guessed it, but she is never ready and rarely ever circles back. Still, the Dems and Biden believe the situation could be fixed if the press were willing to cut them a little slack and just let them see the questions.

Talking to reporters, one White House correspondent, who wishes to remain anonymous, said, “While it’s a relief to see briefings return, particularly with a commitment to factual information, the press can’t really do its job in the briefing room if the White House is picking and choosing the questions they want. That’s not really a free press at all.”
When the White House was asked about the comments, they believed that there is nothing wrong with reviewing the questions beforehand. As they see it, “Our goal is to make the daily briefing as useful and informative as possible for both reporters and the public.”
But is it really informing the public when you censor the questions and tailor the answers to make your own administration look better? Because that is what the Dems are trying to do. They have realized that running a free country is harder than it appears, so now they want to make it look like they know what they are doing, when in fact – they don’t.
