Earlier this week, Karine Jean-Pierre claimed that Biden reduced immigration by 90 percent.
The claim is laughable.
Yet, when Doocy asked for clarification, KJP treated him like a two-year-old child, dressing him down in front of the entire press corps.
Stop the Dramatics
I will be honest…
If that were me, I probably would have lost my press card after this exchange.
All Doocy was looking for was clarification on the matter, but KJP wanted nothing to do with it.
When Doocy tried to come back at her after she made her ridiculous double-down, she cut him off again, and again, without actually giving this alleged data she claims to have.
Watch the exchange…
Doocy: "You said yesterday that when it comes to illegal migration you've seen it come down by more than 90%. Where did that number come from because the number is 136,000 people more this year so far?"

I don’t care what kind of twisting they do with this, those numbers just do not work, which was the same point made by Senator Cruz (R-TX)…
The fact is that KJP finally got caught in a lie, but she will not admit.

In the old days, the entire press room would have followed up on that same question, but now they are working with the White House to protect Biden, so expect this to go unchallenged.
