Washington—White House press secretary Jen Psaki on Monday mocked a reporter who asked when workers on the canceled Keystone XL pipeline would get “green jobs” promised by President Biden. It’s expected that up to 11,000 jobs will be lost following Biden’s day-one decision to immediately shut down construction of the pipeline that was supposed to carry oil from Canada to Texas—leaving South Dakotans reeling and 1,000 people immediately out of work. “Where is it that they can go for their green job?” Fox News reporter Peter Doocy asked Psaki at her Monday afternoon press briefing, referring to Biden’s promise to create good-paying union

Defensive, petty, and immature. As stated on this forum, Psaki will be gone in 6 months, or less.

When asked what jobs the serfs will have, the elites have gone from saying let them eat cake to let them make cake?

Good for Peter. She knows there are no jobs for those let go so she can't even circle back. Speaking of John Kerry, has he ever held a real job? He married money and bought houses and jets and yachts. He is a bought and paid for gigolo.

Incompetence never hires anybody smarter/better than they themselves. So do not expect much from this sorry excuse for a administration official.

I surprised by the level of contempt people have for Psaki. What do you expect from this admin it looks like all they have are classless incompetents to pick from. When the top a the totem pole is Biden/Harris it can only go down hill from there

Remember how the dims denigrated the trickle down economics theory. The pipeline workers aren't the only ones who will lose their jobs. Those jobs are supported by steel mills, pipe producers, welding suppliers, truckers, cafes, waitresses, cooks, landlords, gas stations....A lot of hard working people will lose jobs and we lose tax base. 0's food stamp program will regain its population and who pays for it?
Poverty and misery will be trickling down - not money.

So an experienced pipeline employee who made $75,000 with benefits, will be getting an entry level job that pays $30,000.
And good luck if you are in your 50s trying to compete with everyone else on the bottom rung. Thanks for the opportunity Xiden.

Note that Psaki never answered the question of when the promised jobs would be available; not even a broad range of potential dates.
The best she could do was say "“He has every plan to share more details on that plan in the weeks ahead,” she said when asked how Biden would support workers left jobless by the decision." In other words, Biden is working on a plan to develop a plan. Again not schedule for completion of the plan for a plan.
Pretty pathetic "answer."
Perhaps we should call her Pathetic Psaki.

AQs I noted elsewhere, Trumka is no 'former coal miner.' He is a lawyer,. whose father, a coal miner, arranged for Trumka to have a summer job while in law school, in the mine.
Trumka is a fraud.

Many is the time I have seen a dog circling back as it settles itself for a nap. It's not impressive when a press secretary has to emulate it because she hasn't had the time yet to construct a Potemkin village of interlocking lies.

Amazing how nasty a person with a job can be towards a person without a job or hope.

When the majority of the media has your back, you can tell any lie and get away with it.

The Nasty Orange Woman is a fitting facade for the fraudulent Harris/Bidet administration. They flat-out do not care about pipeline workers losing their livelihoods because they're not LGBT+ or "people experiencing homelessness" or illegal aliens or bLACK People howling in pain or what have you. How does this clown still have a job after her "Lady G" jab at Lindsay Graham?
