Exclusive: White House press sec. Karine Jean-Pierre violated a law designed to limit how officials engage in politics when she referred to “MAGA Republicans” ahead of the midterm elections, a government watchdog agency says.
The group pointed to Jean-Pierre’s remarks as “an inappropriate attempt to influence the vote.”
“[I]t is unclear whether OSC’s contrary analysis regarding the use of ‘MAGA Republicans’ was ever conveyed to Ms. Jean‐Pierre,” Galindo‐Marrone added. Michael Chamberlain, a former Trump administration official who's head of the advocacy group Protect the Public’s Trust, said Jean-Pierre’s violation of the law without repercussion shows why Americans “increasingly distrust the Biden Administration” ethics claims, after it“This episode illustrates exactly what people hate about Washington, DC and why they increasingly distrust the Biden Administration’s promises to be the most ethical in history," Chamberlain said in a statement.
