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: "There's a...report...suggesting...the Ukrainian govt is upset the U.S. pulled citizens side of Ukraine before many other countries did &...a source close to the Ukrainian president thinks those Americans are safer in Kiev than in Los Angeles. What do you make of that?"
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)

NEW: Peter Doocy reveals Biden called him "within an hour" after he called him "a stupid son of a b****": "[W]ithin about an hour of that...he called my cell phone & he just said, 'it's nothing personal, pal' & we went back and forth & we were talking about...moving forward."
Peter Doocy: "I made sure to tell [Biden] that I'm always going to try to ask something different than what everybody else is asking & he said, 'you've got to.' And that is the quote from the President, so I will keep doing it."
.@SeanHannity: "Did he apologize?"

Doocy: "He did clear the air & I appreciate it. We had a nice call."

Hannity: "He -- that's not an answer. Did he apologize? That doesn't sound like an apology."

Doocy: "He said, 'it's nothing personal pal.'"

.@JasonMiyaresVA to @MarthaMacCallum: "What the...executive order said is...parents matter & if...you want your child to have a mask...that is...your right. The point...is recognize there's going to be other parents that come to a different conclusion."
.@JasonMiyaresVA: "The governor has...broad executive power...[T]hese school boards...stayed silent when the previous governor shut down churches...businesses...schools, & mandated masks. All we're saying is...he also has the ability of determining...parents can make...decisions"
.@JasonMiyaresVA to @MarthaMacCallum on Psaki saying states like his aren't doing what's necessary to "keep communities safe": "I respectfully disagree. I think the people playing politics is trying to do a one sides fits all mandate on every parent and every school district."

DOOCY TIME: "Does the President think it's a big deal that, today, the Dow Jones is down at one point, more than 1100 points?

Psaki: "Well, to start with, we focus on the trends in the economy, not any one day and any single indicator, unlike his predecessor."
Doocy: "On schools in Virginia, seven districts...are suing...to get a strict mask mandate that has rolled back by the new governor reinstated. Who does the President think knows best for students: School board members or parents?

Psaki says "public health officials" know best.
Doocy: "The law is...students should not have to wear masks if their parents say...they don't....If a parent wants to send their...kids to school with no mask, should the child be allowed to go to school and be in class?"

Psaki says "it's about keeping an entire community safe"

CBS's Stephen Colbert proposes the Senate be eliminated if the filibuster can't be axed b/c "[i]t is the most anti-Democratic institution next to the judiciary b/c [it's]...the way it is b/c the Senate is the way it is...I cannot understand what...positive purpose [it] provides"
Colbert doubling down a few moments later: "It's an anti-democratic institution. That’s just it. 41 million Americans are represented — more are by — by your side than the Republicans and, yet, they could get one more vote."
*"I don’t understand what possible, positive purpose the United States Senate provides right now."

.@LeaderMcConnell: Biden "delivered a deliberately divisive speech that was designed to pull our country further apart...He compared...a bipartisan majority of senators to literal traitors. How profoundly, profoundly unpresidential...I did not recognize the man at the podium[.]"
.@LeaderMcConnell: "[V]oters did not give President Biden a mandate for very much...bridge a divided country, lower the temperature, dial down the perpetual ere of crisis...Biden has chosen to fail his own test. [His] rant...was incoherent, incorrect, & beneath his office"
McConnell: "He used the phrase Jim Crow 2.0 to demigod a law that makes the franchise more accessible in his own state...Ironically...the D.C. Mayor said bring a photo ID & vaccine card anytime they leave the house...World saw [him] propagandize against his own country."

Ah, yes. Here we go with the liberal media celebrating and trying to normalize pedophilia.

That's right, folks. @USAToday, trying to destigmatize...grown adults having sex with little kids
You see, according to USA Today and at least some on the left, it's actually something you're just "born with" and thus you can't help but want to have sex with kindergartners.
Truly demonic. Here's USA Today arguing that pedophilia shouldn't be seen as something that's a scarlet letter, especially if you're attracted to little kids but you *haven't* acted on your impulses.
