(Western Journal) Former White House press secretary Jen Psaki was rewarded for her long career of lying to the American people on behalf of the Democratic Party with her own show on MSNBC, which debuted in March.
Having worked in various press secretary and communications director roles for notable Democratic icons like John Kerry, Barrack Obama and finally Joe Biden, Psaki took the stage in her own right with “Inside with Jen Psaki.”
While “Circle Back with Psaki” would be a much more appropriate title, the longtime leftist mouthpiece has unsurprisingly used her new platform to attack anyone she and her producers find problematic to progressives.
Psaki wasted little time in decrying last week’s election of Republican Rep. Mike Johnson of Louisiana as the new speaker of the House.
Not content with just attacking Johnson’s politics or voting record, Psaki used her new platform on Sunday to attack Johnson’s Christian beliefs, calling him “scary” and “divisive.
“His views on policy are essentially what you’d expect from a religious fundamentalist — they’re more divisive than divine.”

At first, Psaki appeared to demean Johnson’s clean-cut appearance and his need for vision-correcting glasses, but quickly referred to the man as “threatening” because of how Johnson answered a question posed in an interview Thursday with Fox News host Sean Hannity in regard to Johnson’s firm belief in the Bible.
Johnson said, “I’m a Bible-believing Christian. Someone asked me today in the media, they said, ‘… People are curious, what does Mike Johnson think about any issue under the sun?’ And I said, ‘Well, go pick up a Bible off your shelf and read it. That’s my worldview.’”
This innocuous answer sent Psaki into a rant that, rather than discrediting Johnson, only served to reveal how much hatred and vitriol she has for Christ and His followers.
Psaki scoffed, “You heard that right! The Bible doesn’t just inform his worldview, it is his worldview,” in a tone that implied Johnson might as well have said his worldview came from “Mein Kampf.”
Does it hurt to hate God that much? We need more God fearing people in office to undo the damage done by your ilk.

Psaki continued with more derision in her voice in reference to Johnson’s stating that his election “was an act of God,” alluding to an interpretation of Romans 13:1 in regard to authority being derived and appointed by God.
“Talk about a bit of a humblebrag there,” Psaki snarked.
In true Democrat fashion, Psaki could hardly go five minutes without peddling unsubstantiated conspiracies surrounding Trump’s attempt to “overthrow the 2020 election” and mockingly pondered whether God had told Johnson to take part in it.
Psaki droned on about Johnson’s work with conservative legal activist group, the “Alliance Defending Freedom,” which Psaki made sure to mention was listed as a “hate group” by the Southern Poverty Law Center.
Oddly enough, as Tyler O’Neil, managing editor of The Daily Wire, noted Tuesday, the SPLC has been silent in regard to the numerous left-leaning groups (including Black Lives Matter) that have supported the Oct. 7 Hamas terrorist attack in Israel.
Since Saturday, the SPLC has tweeted about National Coming Out Day, Hate Crimes Awareness Month, and Hispanic History Month. This “hate group” monitor has nothing to say about the horrific Hamas terror attacks in Israel🇮🇱 or the Americans who apparently cheered on the terror. pic.twitter.com/XEdoh9or7o

Psaki continued on her self-righteous rant in attacking Johnson’s past voting record, including his biblical stance on homosexuality when the Supreme Court struck down “sodomy laws” in the 2003 case of Lawrence v. Texas.
Psaki depicted Johnson’s accompanying commentary in regard to homosexuality being “unnatural” and “a dangerous lifestyle” as being laughably unfounded even though homosexuals have disproportionately higher HIV infection rates according to the CDC, not to mention disproportionate suicide and domestic violence rates compared to their heterosexual counterparts.
