White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre vehemently denied allegations of wrongdoing by President Joe Biden in his interactions with his son’s foreign business associates.
In response to questions about these interactions and denials, Jean-Pierre dismissed the allegations as baseless political stunts by House Republicans, emphasizing the lack of evidence of any wrongdoing.
She criticized the focus on this issue as a distraction from more pressing matters such as funding for Ukraine, border issues, and potential government shutdowns. (Trending: Democrat Excludes White People From Holiday Party In Controversial Email)
“For a lot of people at home who only view this in very broad strokes, could you explain to people why the president interacted with so many of his relatives’ foreign associates and why he continues to deny the interaction? How should people think about this?” New York Post’s Steven Nelson asked.
“Well, let’s be very clear here — and I talked about this yesterday and I’ll talk about it a little bit more — and the president put out a statement yesterday that was very clear,” Jean-Pierre said.
“What we’re seeing from House Republicans is a waste of time and it is certainly, you know, a baseless political stunt, that’s what we’re seeing.”
“And they’re leaving, House Republicans are leaving this week to — you know — enjoy a nice holiday, right? As most Americans should. But what happened to the funding to Ukraine?” she asked.
“They haven’t been able to get that done … They haven’t been able to help us fix what’s going on at the border … They haven’t been able to start a conversation on how we’re going to avert a shutdown in January, they haven’t been able to do that.”
“There’s been zero evidence (1) — zero evidence (2). You can ask me about engagement and what the president has done with his family in conversation, but there’s no evidence (3). There’s — wait — but there’s no evidence (4),” Jean-Pierre pressed.
“There is no evidence (5) that the president has done wrongdoing. There’s none (6). Absolutely none (7). None (8) and that is just a fact, you’ve heard it from Republicans themselves. So they’re wasting their time instead of doing the work for — on behalf of the American people – they go after the president’s family. That’s a waste of time.”
Jean-Pierre’s repeated denials underscored the administration’s position that the allegations are unfounded.
