Student goes into ‘Peter Doocy mode,’ corners Psaki with her own words

Jen Psaki may have left the building but the former White House press secretary just keeps on twisting the truth into knots as she did when faced with a question from a first-year college student who she answered with a generous helping of dishonesty and condescending snark.

During the Q & A portion of Psaki’s appearance at the Institute of Politics at the University of Chicago, a young man confronted her by asking about remarks that she had made about the mob protests that have taken place at the homes of Supreme Court Justices by angry activists who have been encouraged by the White House, including the ex-spox herself.

With students being given the opportunity to put their questions to Psaki, the young man who identified himself as Daniel Schmidt said that “I’m going to pull a little bit of a Peter Doocy mode right here,” a reference to the bulldog Fox News reporter who made her life miserable in her old job.

“So here it goes,” asked Schmidt. “A week ago after the Roe v. Wade protests were happening in front of the Supreme Court justices’ houses, you said, and I quote, ‘we certainly continue to encourage that people protest outside of judges’ homes…’”

“I never said that.” Psaki shot back, interrupting the young man before he could finish with the question.

Schmidt replied, “I’m quoting from…” as he held up his cellphone.

“I said peacefully,” replied Psaki.

“Yeah, sure, peacefully…” he said.

“That’s a key word in there,” Psaki added, said.

Undeterred, Schmidt pushed forward, “Peacefully, regardless, they’re protesting because they’re trying to impact the results.”

“It’s a federal crime to protest outside of justices’ homes to impact the results. So my question is, do you regret encouraging people to protest outside of justices’ homes?” he asked. “Even if it is peaceful, it still is a federal crime.”

“Well, first, thank you for your question and bringing it forward. Let me first say, because I think facts matter and facts are important, I never, I never encouraged anyone to protest,” Psaki responded, “I encouraged them to do, engage peacefully, and to do it without violence, without threats, and without intimidation, and that’s something I said many, many times and I think is vitally important.”

She continued, “It is also true that peacefully protesting in places where it is legal, and it is legal in many places in the country, including outside of some places in the country for sure, is something that is, that is allowed, and I’m not going to tell people, I don’t think it’s the role of the government to tell people where they can or cannot peacefully protest. If they’re breaking the law, of course, they shouldn’t do that, and I also said that, too. Thank you for your question.”

After Psaki’s response, The Chicago Thinker, the school’s independent student-run conservative and libertarian newspaper posted a clip of Psaki’s remarks on the mob intimidation on Twitter.

In another tweet, the student newspaper posted the federal law – US Code 1507 – that specifically states that it is a federal crime to engage in such protests “with the intent of influencing any judge, juror, witness or court officer,” making it pretty clear that the mobs were acting illegally.

Last month, University of Chicago students also confronted leftist liars at the big “Disinformation and the Erosion of Democracy” conference that was sponsored by one of the nation’s foremost purveyors of disinformation, The Atlantic as CNN’s Brian Stelter was forced to play defense under questioning about the fake news and propaganda of his employer when he was dunked on by another first-year student.

Less than a week removed from her job as President Joe Biden’s top spinmeister, Psaki hasn’t missed a beat and should have little trouble easing into her new gig as a paid liar at MSNBC.

  1. Psaki will circle back to her webb of lies with regret at some point. Everything, including the words we speak has a cost associated with it. She’s a fool!

  2. I could be wrong but I Do Not See Anywhere in this Statute that Allows for Peaceful Protests in front of the homes of these Justices. How is this any different than the Peaceful Protests that happened in Seattle and Portland??? Will something be done if some Nut Case like the one that attacked the market in Buffalo or the one that attacked the baseball game between the Dems and GOP because he was a Bernie Sanders Fan and hated anyone from then GOP??? Does there have to be blood shed before something is done???

  3. It is probably a good thing that Pinocchio is a fairy tale, otherwise Jen Psaki’s nose would extend from Sea to Shining Sea. 😉

  4. Notice how she hops back and forth from one position to another on the same subject time and time again, all the while insisting she is saying the same thing. It’s just our lying ears I guess.

  5. How Psaki can trip all over her tongue and lie. Does she even know the truth? So glad the Little Red Lying Hood is gone. I quit listening to the pressers long ago, because I know a lie when I hear it.

    1. Too bad little black lying hood took her place so we are right back where we started from.

  6. I’m so glad I don’t have to see that POS,lying bitch again .
    She pretty much encouraged the mobs to go to the justices homes .
    So fk u sacki.

  7. “I never said that” – well, I said it but it’s not what I said! “Well OK – it’s what you SHOW that I said but that’s not what I meant”! “OK – it’s what I meant, but I said PEACEFULLY!” “OK – yes there IS a LAW, but should the Government be telling you what to do – where you can do it and where you can’t”?? Nice that SOME students are waking up and seeking the TRUTH and pointing out DEMOcrat LIES! Next thing you know they will be questioning the legitimacy of the 2020 elections!!!

  8. For what ever good it does other than making these leftist liars uncomfortable and bringing light to their lies, I find it extremely refreshing that these public figures are being held accountable by college students in of all places, University of Chicago.

  9. Psaki, tsk, tsk, tsk. You know, for a paid, professional liar she was still exceedingly inept at her job ~ No seamless segues, no transparencies to her falsehoods, easily provable holes in her defenses ~~ Useless! But this new one, Pepe LaPew, Utterly useless, or rather, useless-er!

    1. Normally what you say would be true however we’re discussing the abilities of a DEMOcrat to perform his/her job so the Rules of NORMALCY do not apply!

  10. This liberal slag cannot open her pie-hole without a lie coming out of it.

  11. Reading about these students at U of Chicago is refreshing. That there are people, young people, that think for themselves makes me believe this country of mine will survive!!

    1. Well at least it helps, but sometimes I wonder if it’s too little too late!

  12. I’m amazed that the University of Chicago hasn’t shut the Institute of Politics down or demanded they leave campus. These students exhibit a lot of courage, speaking the truth at one of the nations indoctrination schools, inhabited by young people who have been force fed lies since kindergarten. Hang in there. Stay tough.

  13. Psaki got caught with her pants down. What a liar, even when the evidence is put in front of her.

  14. PSAKI, is a FKIN Liar..What about January 6 you POS ? You “classified” that as a INSURRECTION , but you allow a group to “protest” >>ILLEGALLY<<, That IS A >>> F-E-D-E-R-A-L C-R-I-M-E…But, you, as a Sexually Confused Democrat will do what you do best..
