White House press secretary Jen Psaki mocked a reporter at Thursday’s briefing for asking a question about liberal educators potentially using their platforms to “indoctrinate” children.
“Sen. Tom Cotton says the nation’s wealthiest colleges are indoctrinating people with what he calls un-American ideas,” the reporter first posed. “He is proposing a new tax targeting the largest private endowments. He says it would raise $2 million a year. I wonder, does the president believe that our largest schools are indoctrinating our youth with un-American ideas?”
