WATCH: Reporter slams Biden White House for failing to provide ‘honest information’

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki was requested about transparency and accuracy with regard to White House briefings, with a reporter asking “if we can’t get information about minor stories, why should we have faith in the administration’s account for larger issues like Afghanistan?”

“Yesterday the conservative transparency group, Judicial Watch, released Secret Service records on dog bites. Dog bites involving the first dog, Major. One email said that Secret Service agents were bitten every single day for eight days, from March 1 to March 8,” a reporter mentioned.

“At a March 9 briefing,” he mentioned,  “you only described one biting incident to us, and described the dogs being whisked back to Delaware on a pre-planned trip to family friends.”

“Obviously that’s not the world’s most important story,” the reporter mentioned, “but it is significant because we expect honest information even for minor stories. So can you explain to us why there was a kind of misleading account presented to us?”

“And if we can’t get information about minor stories, why should we have faith in the administration’s account for larger issues like Afghanistan?”

“I know you do keep the dog in the briefing room,” Psaki replied, “so thank you for that.”

“As we’ve stated previously,” she went on, “Major has had some challenges adjusting to life in the White House. He has been receiving additional training, as well as spending some time in Delaware where the environment is more familiar to him and he is more comfortable. I don’t have any additional specifics, but I think that speaks to where Major is located to be fully transparent in your ongoing interest in the dog.”

Psaki didn’t reply the reporter’s precise query about transparency, why the preliminary White House studies in regards to the canine had been incomplete, or what which means as regards the accuracy of different statements constructed from the Biden administration. Instead, Psaki supplied extra perception on the situation of the canine.
