Psaki appeared on a podcast called “Pod Save America” where they discussed her interactions with Peter Doocy and Psaki took it upon herself to attack conservatives for watching Fox News and caring about the surging crime rates, especially in blue cities.
“So here’s my question: [Doocy] always puts out a ‘gotcha’ question, like today he basically asked two. Like one was ‘does President Biden think parents should be under the boot of nameless bureaucrats when it comes to their children’s education’ and the other was ‘does President Biden think crime is good?’”
“You do not fall for any of this bait to your credit, though I think someone much worse at your job would also not fall for these questions,” Lovett continued. “Are you worried that he’s not adjusting? That there’s not a new strategy to try and catch you in some kind of ‘gotcha’ question?”
“You know, I am not here to work for Peter Doocy or Fox,” Psaki said. “I will say, if you look at how it’s portrayed, how my answers are portrayed, even how I say ‘no, we don’t think crime is good and here’s all the things we’ve done,’ including the thing that makes Republicans crazy, just anecdotally by the hate tweets I get on Twitter when I say this is that they voted against funding for local cops’ programs because the American Rescue Plan, also that Biden has supported $300 billion more in funding and at the same time he also thinks we need police reform – it’s like they don’t know what to do with that.”
“But every time we say that it makes them crazy. I think it speaks to, if you look at Fox on a daily basis … on Fox is Jeanine Pirro talking about soft on crime consequences,” Psaki said, comparing Fox’s coverage to that of CNN and MSNBC’s. “I mean, what does that even mean? So there’s an alternate universe on some coverage and what’s scary about it is a lot of people watch that and they think the president isn’t doing anything to address people’s safety in New York and that couldn’t be further from the truth.”

Psaki apparently doesn’t know about the crime waves that have been happening across the country. New York’s D.A. Bragg is making Manhatten a criminal haven and D.A. Gascon is doing the same for L.A. with their weak on crime stances. On top of that many blue cities across the country are trying to regain law and order after gutting their police budgets in 2020 and trying to correct the situation in 2021. So this isn’t an alternate reality, it’s just national news. This really showcases how out of touch Psaki is.
