'100% correct': Peter Doocy gets backup from Bill Melugin after Biden spox's denial about 'how it works' at the border

Monday’s edition of White House spokesperson Karine Jean-Pierre featured plenty of what’s on display at all the other pressers: Gaslighting.

Things really got going when Fox News’ Peter Doocy asked a fairly simple question about “science” and how it’s applied at the southern border vs. elsewhere:

DOOCY: "How come migrants are allowed to come into this country unvaccinated, but world class tennis players are not?"

KJP: "Due to privacy reasons, the U.S. government also does not comment on medical information of individual travelers." pic.twitter.com/mmHvralMvV

Doocy said “somebody unvaccinated comes over on a plane, you say that’s not okay — Somebody walks into Texas or Arizona unvaccinated, they’re allowed to stay.” KJP replied “that’s not how it works”:

Doocy: "Somebody unvaccinated comes over on a plane, you say that's not okay. Somebody walks into Texas or Arizona unvaccinated, they're allowed to stay?"

Jean-Pierre: "That's not how it works… It's not like someone walks over."

Doocy: "That's exactly what is happening!" pic.twitter.com/mr8XE1n1oY

Doocy’s colleague at Fox News, Bill Melugin, practically lives at the border these days and interjected that yes, that IS “how it works”:

Colleague @pdoocy is 100% correct. That is exactly what is happening at the border.
Not sure how many more videos we have to show, multiple times a day, to get this point across. And that doesn’t even account for the more than half a million gotaways who slipped thru since 10/1. https://t.co/2f63fXQvzn

Another day brings with it a fresh example of the Biden press office lying like there’s no tomorrow.

Unbelievable. What a mess this administration is.

I do not believe that the Press Secretary believes everything she spits out of her mouth. https://t.co/r5hhMbbVET

Jean-Pierre reads whatever’s in her Big Book of Talking Points and reality has no place in the discussion.
