White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki refused to budge on Biden’s false claims about the recently-passed election integrity bill in Georgia. Despite multiple fact checks, Biden’s debunked falsities about the bill remain the White House hard line.
Additionally, Psaki conveyed no remorse on behalf of the President over the $100 million loss in revenue after voicing his support for the MLB boycott of Georgia.
“Is the President going to change his tune on the new Georgia voting law?” a reporter asked.
Here’s Psaki’s full response:
BOOM: Peter Doocy points out the fact that even The Washington Post found President Biden’s claims about the Georgia voting law to be factually inaccurate and asked if he’ll change how he talks about it.

In typical Psaki fashion, she deflected from answering the question, prompting the reporter to ask again, adding, “Biden’s claims have been determined by election experts to be false, so will he stop repeating these claims?”
Again she refused to answer the question.
Psaki was also asked if Biden regretted his “strong support” for Major League Baseball pulling their All-Star game out of Georgia, resulting in hundreds of millions of dollars in lost revenue for the state.
Here is the interaction that Psaki had with the reporter:
Under questioning from Peter Doocy, Jen Psaki refuses to admit that Biden’s support for MLB moving the All-Star Game out of Atlanta was a way of the White House putting their thumbs on the scales.
She also refused to comment on the loss of $100M from Cobb County. Go figure. pic.twitter.com/4i1bW0gWOC
