As Twitchy reported Monday, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki took great offense at Fox News’ Peter Doocy using the word “stranded” when describing Americans on the ground in Afghanistan who couldn’t get to the airport. Psaki told Doocy it was “irresponsible” to say Americans were stranded, declaring, “They are not.”
Psaki even did her part Tuesday by telling the White House press corps to pass along any contact information they have for anyone still on the ground in Afghanistan, and the administration would get in touch.
The @PressSec tells reporters at the White House that if they have the contact information of Americans still on the ground in Afghanistan, pass along their contact information and the administration will get in touch.

I am sure you'll start getting Fedex boxes of fingers and limbs with letters asking Joe to pay up. Nice work all around.
