With that in mind, you know what to do:
President Biden will not be taking any questions so if you’d like answers about what’s going on in Ukraine please refer to the Tik Tok influencers for guidance. Thank you.

Yep, those TikTok influencers take their White House talking points from their briefings and run with them.
