‘We’re Going to Move On’: Psaki Fires Back at NY Post Reporter Over Series of Questions

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki put an end to an exchange with a reporter from the New York Post, telling him, “We’re going to move on.”

The outlet reported, “On October 22, a group of COVID-19 testing experts joined a Zoom call with officials from the Biden administration and presented a strategy for overhauling America’s approach to testing.”
