While the United States is providing weapons and money for Ukraine's expenses, the staff turnover has begun in the White House. Jen Psaki worked her last day as Press Secretary this week. The legendary Jen has entertained audiences around the world with her knowledge of politics, history, and geography for five and a half years. We will never forget her famous phrases "Sixth fleet off the coast of Belarus" and "Gas flows from Western Europe to Russia" .
Would a successor be able to replace such a submissive Psaki? We'll find out later. Karine Jean-Pierre is a win-win, this woman is a concentrate of the Biden administration's ideas. She is dark-skinned, plus she is of non-traditional orientation. A complete tolerance package. By the way, her speeches have already been assessed as as nonsense that comes down to accusing everyone of racism and conspiracy theories.
The fact remains that, amid Joe Biden's plummeting approval ratings, record inflation, failed policies and public discontent in the U.S., major media figures are fleeing the White House before the end of their terms. Meanwhile, the U.S. Congressional elections are very soon, where, incidentally, the Democratic forces stand a good chance of losing to the Republicans. Ekaterina Tikhomirova has been investigating the reasons why Jen Psaki escaped from the White House.
So, the First channel goes! The first major figure, Jen Psaki, has floated out of the White House, which is sinking in the abyss of economic and geopolitical troubles. Gone is the whole era of political satire: when a woman voicing the opinions of an entire American administration was so "strong" in history, politics and geography. She turned briefings into talk shows: coverage of 190 states, on the air daily on weekdays, and dialogues worthy of the best comedy shows. Practically 5 years: with a little break between the State Department and the White House. Her trademark was"Let's come back to this later." The Circle back phrase for every occasion in life was repeated so often that it became an American meme, and Psaki became a "Circle back girl".
She double checked the information in the office. She was able to get out of any situation she did not understand.
Thanks to her, we got our own sea, and Rostov grew with the mountains. Millions of viewers waited for Psaki more than they waited for the weather report, because unlike the latter, Psaki never disappointed.
Matthew Lee, lead correspondent for The Associated Press:
Does the State Department really think that the annexation of part of the Norwegian peninsula to Russian territories is not a natural phenomenon, but the work of Russia? Don't you think it's rather difficult to do this by human effort?
Jen Psaki, Press Secretary for the U.S. State Department:
It’s hard! As in the case of Donetsk and Luhansk, illegal methods were used. Our sources have information that in the summer there were unplanned exercises of the Russian icebreaker fleet in the Norwegian waters with huge winches on board. We believe that the control to split the island was made long before this exercise. The island was set in motion by ships.
The sailor's swearing appeared to spoil Mrs. Nuland. Moreover, the Soviet sailor was so professional in his arguments that he immediately taught Nuland to swear in English.
Jen Psaki, Press Secretary for the U.S. State Department:
You may know the story of how Nuland worked on a Russian merchant ship for eight months at the age of 23, and learned to use a certain vocabulary perfectly there.
He who listened to Psaki does not need Petrosian’s shows - a catchphrase of the Russian-speaking segment of Jen's career at the State Department under Kerry. But, what can I say, they are endowed with American law.
She's not the only one with the right to be weird. Working in the White House was more difficult. Turning YouTube upside down with your statements is one thing, but it's quite another, when you are are left far behind in such skills by your won boss. That's when you're finally exhausted, a sleepy Biden comes out, and tomorrow you'll be explaining the whole secret meaning of the words your boss said the day before. Yes, under Grandpa Joe, the rules of the White House have changed.
Jen Psaki is leaving to host a cable news channel on MSNBC. But the show goes on. The baton has been passed to one that meets all the needs of American progressive society: activist, Democrat, dark-skinned migrant, and hey, what a gay woman!
Jen Psaki, White House Press Secretary:
First of all, as you all know, she will be the first black woman. The first LGBT representative.
This is a very powerful blow. In the past we used to be fascinated by Psaki's pratfalls, but now trying not to believe in White House fairy tales would be somehow intolerant and Russian-like or something like that. "You don't believe me because I'm black or lesbian?"
And it must be said, Biden's administration is rather motley. He has a gay Secretary of Transportation and a transgender admiral. Biden's team is about 40% LGBT. And the year 2020 was the most fruitful year for such appointments.
According to experts, this hasty replacement of the face is not due to the collection of all representatives of the colored or rainbow population of the United States in the White House staff, but to the banal escape of prominent politicians against the background of the record fall of Biden's ratings.
John Varoli, American PR expert and political scientist:
I see her departure as a clear sign that the faith in Joe Biden, even among his inner circle, is crumbling. It is obvious to everyone, even Biden's fellow party members, that his 14-month reign has been an absolute disaster for the country and for the world.
Among the high-profile failures of the U.S. during the 14 months of the Biden administration: the highest inflation in a decade, energy shortages, and severe, rising poverty and indigence. Foreign policy: the shameful flight from Afghanistan and the failed policy on the Ukrainian crisis, in addition, the Americans have to pay for every Javelin of independent Ukraine, but the question is whether it ends up in the right hands, rather than getting lost first in the corrupt corridors of the United States, and then the remaining crumbs will be picked up by the no less corrupt members of the Ukrainian government. Psaki is apparently only the first major figure hurrying out of the White House. People's discontent is too great, leading to the defeat of the Democrats in the upcoming elections in November. Biden's support ratings are only 44%. He is by far the most unpopular politician in U.S. history. If his approval rating drops any further, there is a great danger for the Democratic Party to lose its majority in Congress and finish its term in the face of an opposing Republican legislature.
So, hold on America, there are exciting times ahead.
