Jen Psaki has had enough!
Jen Psaki has had enough!
By Terry A. Hurlbut
Jen Psaki seems to have had enough of this, the longest-running gig of her career thus far. She's going from spokeswoman to anchorwoman.
Well, folks, it looks as though Jen Psaki has had enough. Whether it was high fuel prices or whether the U.S. military is, or is not, training up Ukrainian soldiers in Poland, or maybe her catching COVID even after getting The Vaccine, she must have just gotten the straw that broke the camel’s back. We now learn that she’ll be leaving the White House, to sit behind an anchor desk at MSNBC.
Is Jen Psaki really leaving?
The story first came to CNN through two “people familiar with the matter.” But oddly enough, Axios came out with the story first. We also see reports from NPR, The Guardian, and The Cut. And in the alternative media, The Gateway Pundit and We Love Trump picked it up, too.
Axios tells us that people were speculating for weeks whether – or when – Jen Psaki would leave her gig. Right now, it’s only in the talking stages. She has signed no contracts, nor told any of her bosses. But the only ones she’s talking to, are the worthies at MSNBC.
There are rules about that sort of thing – about public employees seeking private work while still on their public job. These mainly have to do with a public employee accepting gifts from outside. In fact some are already suggesting she’s breaking those rules. Some of us could consider a high-paying job, a gift. Certainly her position makes her a marketable commodity. And it’s happened before, as The Cut tells us.
The White House–to–TV-pundit pipeline appears to be in good working order.
Though you might remember one memorable case in which it worked the other way. Tony Snow jumped from Fox to the Bush Junior administration. And then, as some of us remember, he died of colon cancer. A really classy guy, and people of good heart still miss him.
A long career in politics, though not as an elected official
Jen Psaki has been in politics since 2000, when she graduated from College of William and Mary. She’s never held elected office, nor run for it. But she’s gotten into plenty of campaigns, all of them for the most leftist Democrats out there. They include Governor Tom Vilsak and Senator Tom Harkin from Iowa, Representative Joseph Crowley of New York, and even John Kerry, when he ran for President in 2004. She’s been in the Obama administration, and in the Trump years worked for WestExec Advisers, representing several former Obama officials. So when she came to Joe Biden’s White House, she had already been speaking for Democrats for about twenty years. The only exception was a gig at CNN as a commentator.
And by all indications, she is sincere – which should remind you that one can be sincerely wrong. She even mixed into the Virginia Governor’s race after Terence McAuliffe said what he did about parents having to butt out of school. Of course, McAuliffe lost, and that had to hurt, almost as bad as Kerry losing in 2004. Nor will people soon forget her repeated spats with Peter Doocy of Fox News. But of course Jen Psaki is a typical Northern Virginia lefty denizen. In fact she might be equally at home on New York City’s Upper East Side.
And the people big Jen Psaki – good riddance!
Already the “good riddance” quotes have started flowing in. The Twitterverse has exploded with them. Here’s John Fund saying she’s “leaving the sinking ship.”

Matt Vespa at TownHall.com seems to be saying, “Go, already!”
So who will take her place? Either her deputy, Karine Jean-Pierre, or the Communications Director, Katie Bedingfield. Both have stood in for her during her COVID bout. Vespa says neither one of them has what it takes. Your editor wonders exactly what it does take, except a capacity to lie convincingly. And defend the indefensible – as I said two days ago.
Wherever she goes, I doubt any of us on our side will miss her or even pick it up. Let’s face it: half the country no longer cares to watch what the other half watches. And we’re about to find out, this fall, which half of the country has more viewers – and voters. Maybe Jen Psaki showed enough smarts to get out while the getting is good.
