EMBARRASSING: Jean-Pierre accidentally reads the WRONG scripted answer during press briefing

On "The News & Why It Matters," BlazeTV hosts Sara Gonzales and Alex Stein, along with BlazeTV contributor Eric July, shared a video clip of White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre embarrassing herself by reading the wrong scripted answer to a reporter's question.

During a recent press briefing, Jean-Pierre was asked about Sen. Jeanne Shaheen's (D-N.H.) angry response to President Joe Biden's support of a proposal to put South Carolina ahead of New Hampshire in the Democratic presidential primary process. But the press secretary, who infamously reads scripted answers from her giant binder full of notes, accidentally rattled off an answer about the Hatch Act.

“So, look, we honor — we honor the Hatch Act, as I mentioned many times before here, as we are talking about a potential election, a 2024 presidential election. But, looking backward, it is the ultimate irony, you know, that the 2020 election was proven by the Trump administration’s Homeland —” Jean-Pierre said before realizing she was reading the answer to a completely different question.

"Oops. Sorry. I think I got ahead of myself here," she said.
