White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre has been accused of lying about the southern U.S. border during a press briefing.
Fox News’ Jacqui Heinrich called her out for false claims about Republicans voting to cut Border Patrol funding and Texas law enforcement obstructing Border Patrol agents from rescuing migrants.
Jean-Pierre’s statements were fact-checked and later disavowed by the U.S. Department of Justice and the governor of Texas.
The White House has been criticized for its disingenuous portrayal of the Border Patrol, particularly after the “whipping” incident involving Haitian migrants.
