White House Fires Back at Jen Psaki’s Controversial Comments

URGENT UPDATE: The White House has retaliated against former press secretary Jen Psaki following her scathing remarks about Second Lady Usha Vance and her husband, Vice President JD Vance. In an episode of the “I’ve Had It” podcast released on October 24, 2023, Psaki’s comments sparked immediate backlash from the current administration.

During the podcast, Psaki expressed concerns regarding Usha Vance, saying, “Like, are you OK? Please blink four times. Come over here, we’ll save you.” This prompted a fierce response from White House director of communications Steven Cheung, who labeled Psaki a “dumbass” and “moron” in a post on X (formerly Twitter). Cheung accused her of projecting her own issues onto others and stated that her remarks were a desperate attempt to compensate for a perceived lack of talent.

Cheung’s post included a clip of Psaki’s comments, where she also stated that JD Vance is “scarier in certain ways” than former President Donald Trump. She described him as a “little Manchurian candidate” who desires the presidency more than anything and is willing to adapt his persona to appeal to different audiences. Psaki emphasized that while he may have ambitions, Vance lacks the charisma—referred to as “rizz”—to lead the MAGA movement effectively, describing him as “a little odd.”

The exchange between Psaki and Cheung has ignited conversations across social media platforms, drawing significant public interest. Psaki’s remarks, which have been interpreted as both humorous and critical, have resonated with listeners, while Cheung’s response emphasizes the ongoing tension between the former and current White House teams.
