Exactly how many Biden press secretaries does the Washington Post employ? If you were more disturbed by Doocy’s question than Psaki’s answer, you might be a WaPo “journalist.”
Almost invariably now the WaPo sides with the the spy agencies and the surveillance state. Hit jobs on the rare journalist actually “speaking truth to power” are standard fare. Democracy Dies https://t.co/wYnKFDGSci

The WaPo was established in tbs 19th century specifically to be the voice of the Democrat party.
