A Twitter and Roblox user who posed as a White House Correspondents Association member managed to land four questions in recent Biden administration briefings, Politico reported.
Politico s Christopher Cadelago found that the individual who goes by the name Kacey Montagu – successfully snuck in questions to press secretary Jen Psaki by emailing White House pool reporters using an array of invented journalist titles.
Some reporters declined to pass along Montagu s inquiries. But correspondents at publications like the The Plain Dealer and CQ Roll Call followed through on the requests, asking Psaki questions on topics like COVID-19 travel bans and the president s reaction to Microsoft being hacked.
Things got downright surreal during White House Press Secretary
Jen Psaki’s briefings this week, which included a question from a fictional Lego-based reporter and a visit from a giant white rabbit. In case you missed them, here are the good, bad, and ugly moments that went down this week.
The week started with the perfect metaphor for the often psychedelic nature Psaki’s tenure, as her briefing was interrupted when a giant white rabbit in a Covid mask busted in to hand out candy.
The intrepid Psaki used the interruption as an opportunity to model Covid precautions, while the press made quips that included “Is the bunny taking questions?”
