Jean-Pierre Is Big Mad that RNC Distributes Unfiltered, Unedited, Publicly Available Clips of Biden

Reporter: “There seems to be a sort of rash of videos that have been edited to make the president appear especially frail or mentally confused. I’m wondering if the White House is especially worried about the fact that this appears to be a pattern that we’re seeing more broadly?”
Jean-Pierre: “Yeah, we — and I think you all have called this ‘the cheap fakes video,’ and that’s exactly what they are. They are cheap fakes video. They are done in bad faith. And — and some of your news organization have been very clear, have stressed that these right-wing — the right-wing critics of the president have a credibility problem because the fact-checkers have repeatedly caught them pushing misinformation, disinformation. And so we see this, and this is something coming from — from your part of the world, calling them cheap fakes and misinformation. And I’ll quote The Washington Post where they wrote — they wrote about this and they said how Republican use misleading videos to attack Biden in a 24-hour period. And to their credit, we have a conservative Washington Examiner did call them out as well, calling out the New York Post. Ironically, several recent cheap fakes actually attacked the president for thanking troops, for thanking troops — that is what they are attacking the president for — both in Normandy this happen, and again in Italy. And I think that it tells you everything that we need to know about how — how desperate, how desperate Republicans are here. And instead of talking about the president’s performance in office — and what I mean by that is his legislative wins, what he’s been able to do for the American people across the country — we’re seeing these deep fakes, these manipulated videos, and it is, again, done in bad faith.”
