DOOCY TIME: "Why is it that large numbers of single adult men are being released into the United States just hours after being apprehended at the southern border?"

Psaki: "Well I'm not sure the specifics of what you're referring to, Peter...."

Doocy: "You mentioned...they're supposed to check in at a local ICE office, but we know that just between large and August...DHS says more than 47,000...migrants that were given notices to report did not show up. So, why let them into the U.S. unsupervised in the first place?"

Doocy: "Biden met with President Putin in-person in June...He said...'It's clearly not in anybody's interested...for us to be in a situation where we're in a new Cold war, & I truly believe...he understands that.' Has the President changed his opinion about what Putin thinks?"

Doocy: "I'm just asking. It seems like President thought in June that things were going to be good & right now, things are not looking good."
Psaki: "I don't actually think that's at all what the President said....There was work that we could do together."

Doocy: Blinken "tweeted, 'I #StandWithUkraine.' Has that ever worked at stopping an authoritarian regime from doing anything? A hashtag?"

Psaki: "I will have to say...unlike the last administration, we don't think Twitter is the only means of engaging or negotiating...." (6/6)
