'PEAK IDIOCRACY': Psaki Enlists TikTok Stars to Help Ukraine War Messaging

Joe won’t speak to the press about Ukraine —so Jen Psaki called in the big guns: TikTok influencers.

The crackerjack squad of Gen Z know-nothings were briefed by White House press secretary Jen Psaki and National Security Council special communications adviser Matt Miller. You read that correctly —TikTok influencers were briefed by the White House on the situation in Ukraine.

“The topics reportedly broached included America’s strategic goals in Eastern Europe, how the US would respond to nuclear escalation by Russia, and how millions of dollars in aid were being distributed to Ukrainians affected by the war,” the New York Post reports.

“At one point in the briefing, White House director of digital strategy Rob Flaherty noted that the Biden administration recognized that TikTok ‘is a critically important avenue’ for much of the American public — especially Gen Z — to find out about news.”

Want to talk about “important avenues?” How about the White House press briefing and maybe a few answers from Joe, himself? Nope —far-left twenty-somethings with lots of followers.

“Joe Biden can hardly be bothered to take questions from the American people, but the White House is briefing TikTok influencers on Ukraine. We have reached peak idiocracy,” said GOP candidate Wesley Hunt.

“There’s ample evidence that the #CCP uses TikTok to track info on Americans. Even with these national security concerns, the Biden Admin used their resources & a far-left activist group to brief top TikTokers on the crisis in Ukraine. You cant make this up,” said Rep. Stephanie Bice (R-OK).

This isn’t the first time the Biden Administration has tapped TikTok influencers to disseminate its talking points —they tried the same thing with COVID vaccinations (with cringey results).
