Former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki, now MSNBC host, recently sat down on stage with Kara Swisher.
During the interview, Psaki claimed that former President Trump named the Space Force after a Steve Carrell movie.
Trying to be intellectual and high-minded, she said, “Could you have done something different?”
PSAKI: The name, there, like, hurt by the branding, the name. So let me just say that. That was what was going on in my head.
SWISHER: What would you call them?
PSAKI: I don’t know, but Space Force is literally the name of a Steve Carrel movie. Could we have done something different?
There’s just one problem with that…The Steve Carrell show came out well after Trump established the Space Force.
These are the people calling Trump voters stupid:

Then she started ranting like Hillary Clinton.
Jen Psaki claiming ‘The Kremlin’ targeted her with Russian propaganda:
“I became a prime target of the Kremlin and Vladimir Putin and their propaganda machine.
A lot of it was very gendered. They went after me and made up things that I said.
I’m talking about people who worked… pic.twitter.com/IkUSjf4BoI— Eric Abbenante (@EricAbbenante) May 20, 2024
It’s like she forgot that this picture still exists.
Later in the interview Swisher asked because if she considers herself a journalist after leaving her role in the White House.
SWISHER: You switched to journalist essentially. Do you think you’re a journalist?
PSAKI: Yes
(Audience busts out laughing)
Kara Swisher: “You switched to journalism essentially. You think you’re a journalist?”
Jen Psaki: “Yes”
*Laughter ensues*Jen Psaki is such a great journalist that her book already had a retraction before it was released. pic.twitter.com/bZmIvuwQEG
