Press Sec. Jean-Pierre Calls Justice Clarence Thomas “Judge Thompson”

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre mistakenly referred to Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas as “Justice Thompson.”

During a Monday press briefing, Jean-Pierre was giving her take about the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v Wade when she made the slip, claiming “Judge Thompson” was seeking to further restrict issues related to reproductive choices.

“As we know from the Dobbs decision, one of the things we saw from Judge Thompson is that they are looking to go further, whether it’s privacy, contraception, or marriage equality,” Jean-Pierre told reporters.

Yikes.

Jean-Pierre has been struggling at her post as Joe Biden’s press secretary after her predecessor Jen Psaki’s exit in May.

As Politico even noted in late June, “it’s been a rocky first month for White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre.”

“Her answers have baffled reporters, and even made some of her White House colleagues wince. She has increasingly found herself sharing the podium or splitting briefings with John Kirby, who has been taking the lead on foreign policy and at times appears to function as a co-press secretary,” Politico reported, “And Republicans have zeroed in on her as a useful punching bag.”

This is what happens when Biden’s White House is more focused on hiring based purely on misguided woke notions of diversity and equity rather than merit or past experience.
