White House press secretary Jen Psaki on Wednesday declined to say why the White House fired staff for past marijuana use when Vice President Kamala Harris has talked openly about the fact that she too used to get high — referring instead to vague security service standards before growing visibly annoyed.

The White House terminated at least five staffers for past marijuana use, Psaki disclosed last week in response to a report that “dozens” had been canned or given less severe discipline such as suspensions.

She could just say "hey, if we were using the Kamala Harris standard, we wouldn't have simply fired them for smoking marijuana, we'd get them locked up in prison!"

People on the left told me that Trump was going to sic Jeff Sessions on the medical marijuana industry. That didn’t happen. Now Biden is conducting his own hunt for past pot users.

Jen said she would circle back after she had a bong hit.

While she is really bad, I don’t think we can pretend that Jen Psaki has an easy job. Covering for rampant hypocrisy and for a President who is also incompetent has to take a toll.

I’d venture a guess that they got fired because they were straight-up asked a direct question in their security interview, and when they interviewed their friends & acquaintances it was determined that they lied. BAM! Yer out.

Why? Because extreme hypocrisy is part of their religion. Look how concerned they act about guns for example, yet they have no issue slaughtering tens of millions of unborn babies and having the borders wide open. They’re insane people.
