DOOCY TIME: "There are 15,000 migrants under the Del Rio bridge Saturday. If you add up the ones that you say were expelled or released, it's less than 5,000. Say there's 5,000 that are still left. Where is everybody else?"

Psaki: "I'm happy to get you a more fruitful rundown."

Short clip here, but Doocy masterfully gets Psaki to subtly admit that people placed on the path toward "removal proceedings"....doesn't actually mean anything.

Doocy 🔥🔥: "[M]ost of these people...are being put on either buses from Del Rio to El Paso and Laredo or being flown to Tucson, with no Covid tested -- testing unless they show symptoms. How is that helping anybody stop the spread?"

Psaki: "Again, we have a protocol...."

Doocy: "But why should somebody, say, in Laredo, Texas, or El Paso or Tucson, Arizona have to have their chance of catching Covid go up b/c, hundreds of miles away, there's an open border."

Psaki: "Well, there certainly is not an open border."

Doocy: "You say the border is not open, but we're told by our teams on the ground you guys are releasing pretty much all family units, couples where the woman says that she is pregnant or single women who say that they are pregnant."

Psaki then implies Doocy is being sexist.

Psaki: "If there's a big outrage about pregnant women, I'm not tracking it."

Doocy: "The issue is not about pregnant women. The issue is: Is the border open or is the border closed?Because my understanding is that a lot of this is happening on this side of the border."
