Former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said she will edit her new book after being called out for a section defending President Biden’s actions during the dignified transfer of the U.S. service members killed in a terror attack at the Kabul airport in 2021.
As Axios reported, Psaki argues in her new book “Say More” that Biden didn’t look at his watch until after the ceremony was over—which contradicts photo and video documentation as well as accounts from Gold Star families present during the transfer.
Reality check: Psaki’s new account is at odds with fact-checks at the time, news agencies’ photos from the ceremony at Dover Air Force Base, and on-the-record statements from Gold Star families who were there.
- The Associated Press photographer on the tarmac snapped two photos of Biden looking at his watch twice and 10 minutes apart, as fact-checkers at USA Today and Snopes noted soon afterward.
