Irony strikes again in the Biden Administration.
Just as the White House released a big report today addressing corruption, Jen Psaki fails to answer a reporters question regarding Hunter Biden selling off his Chinese assets as well as her thoughts on his laptop, during Monday’s press briefing.

The question regarding the sale of his assets, stems from his involvement in many affairs with Chinese companies.
Just recently, it was discovered he assisted a Chinese company in buying one of the most lucrative cobalt mines from an American company for 3.8 Billion Dollars back in 2013.
And now, just a couple weeks after Biden’s meeting with the Chinese president, it’s been discovered Hunter Biden sold off his Chinese Assets.
As the cherry on top, Jen Psaki also FAILED to answer the second question the reporter asked directly, when asked about her own commentary in regards to Hunter Biden’s Laptop, she made in a tweet a year ago.
The Post Millennial has more on the story:
A New York Post reporter stated “The Biden administration put out a big report today addressing corruption,” and asked “Shortly after President Biden’s meeting with the Chinese president, the first son’s attorney said that he has finally divested from a Chinese investment fund controlled by state-owned entities. I was hoping you could commit to basic transparency about that transaction, including the name of the buyer, the dollar amount and the timing.”
“And the second question is,” the reporter continued, “my colleague Miranda Devine has a new book out called Laptop from Hell, and I was hoping you could confirm that the laptop is indeed authentic and not Russian disinformation as you seemed to suggest on Twitter last year.”
Just one year ago, Jen Psaki posted a tweet about how the “Hunter Biden story is Russian disinfo, dozens of former intel officials say.”

“Well,” Psaki replied, “on the first, the President’s son is not an employee of the federal government, so I’d point you to his representatives. And as it relates to the book, I have neither had the time nor interest in exploring nor reading the book.”
Here are some reactions to Psaki’s clear dodge on the questions she was asked in today’s briefing:
WOW did she not like getting asked two completely fair questions, unlike the fluffing she typically gets from our abysmal White House press corps. Touchy touchy touchy touchy touchy! https://t.co/ReN2Cwg4E1

Ooooh, @PressSec doesn’t like being asked about Hunter Biden.

I like how she thinks she answered the question … she successfully skirted both questions but that doesn’t constitute answering the substance of the questions which she absolutely didn’t address.

She didn't answer the question..

How does she keep doing this job?

“How does she keep doing this job?” Is a fair question indeed.
She went from “let’s circle back” to dodging, deflecting and getting angry when asked any legitimate, fair question at all, now.
