Jen Psaki’s Monday briefing, praising her for calling out CBS News’
Ed O’Keefe when he lacked on-the-record sources to back up an assertion he made, and relied only on background.
“There are Democrats who see the the first meeting the president is having face-to-face with lawmakers is with Republicans and not Democrats. Why is the White House doing that?” O’Keefe asked regarding President
Joe Biden’s plan to sit down with 10 Republican senators on Monday.
O’Keefe later added that he’s heard chatter that Democrats are unhappy he is not meeting with them as well.
“Just people talking about it in the hallways?” Psaki asked back, earning a sheepish “sure” from O’Keefe.
