Reporters grilled White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre on Monday, after President Biden went back on his word and pardoned his son Hunter.
White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre faced the press for the first time Monday after President Biden pardoned his son Hunter – an outcome that both Biden and Jean-Pierre previously insisted multiple times would not happen. One reporter asked Jeane-Pierre if those previous statements denying a pardon 'could be seen as lies' to the American people.
We’ve been asked that question multiple times. Our answer stands, which is no,' the press secretary said at the time. Fox News Digital’s Lindsay Kornick and The Associated Press contributed to this report.
