Can anyone in the Biden administration ever answer a straight question?

[@warnerbiggs9682]

No

[@donald2665]

I as a Citizen who has viewed many Biden Officials being questioned, can answer your question with a "NO!"

[@hsmd4533]

Thank you for that question.
As you know, the Biden administration believes very strongly in answering questions.
Unfortunately, however, the Biden administration is unable to comment directly on this matter.
The Biden administration would be happy to follow up with your office at a later date regarding why it cannot answer a straight question.

[@ClarenceCochran-ne7du]

Deb Haaland couldn't manage a 7/11

[@westridgerunner]

Perfect example of our govt working very hard to get nothing done

[@kentjohnson3071]

Halaand needs to put as much effort into doing her job by law as she does in picking what earrings to wear!😡🇺🇸

[@captainkirk1745]

❤

[@cliffmedina6074]

She never answers the questions 😮

[@user-ti3fe6gg4s]

debs right , shes not saying anything .

[@WEHenry]

The law and our constitution don't mean 💩 to them, except to try and hide behind them.

[@gordonlecroy4258]

The Administrations is doing whatever it damn well pleases, and to hell with any contrary laws.

[@kencastaneda9361]

What a horrific woman she is for selling out her people 😢

[@craigmartin1727]

Murkowski voted to appoint her to the position

[@patrickdean4853]

It’s pretty simple- the Secretary of the Interior just told Congress to fuck off. Pure and clear as the summer sun.

[@user-yx4yh9xf9v]

She isn't in charge of anything, same as JoeBAMA.
WATCH all of this Hearing!
Then go watch the one with the Energy Secretary.
I always watch these clips from Forbes.
Share the info.

[@mikehoefer1827]

Raise your hand if you trust any of them anymore.

[@ttfahd]

They always want to get back to you......off camera

[@WalkiTalki]

Thats my most favorite part of this year's commitee hearings. Many of the Congressmen kept notes from last year and have investigated the facts since.

[@NancyDunton-hb9ir]

Make her toe the line not skirt the issue

[@cliftonnelson6895]

She is not smart enough to understand the question.
So how and hell can she give a response to to a question.

[@andrewfisher8749]

SCOTUS can’t overturn “Chevron” soon enough.

[@insufferableconceit]

Haaland: “I am not saying anything” yea we know

[@pAuL-nb2ud]

Refreshing to see a lawyer explain things for we simple serfs : )

[@garethbarnes3680]

She's reading the answers!

[@DarrellWeavercom]

Can Congress impose fines or criminal charges for failure to fulfill congressional mandates?

[@derrickhyman872]

She can’t be replaced fast enough! Get Deb Haaland out Now!

[@jillatherton4660]

Quite obtuse.

[@bretwebber7484]

Wazzup 😊

[@cryptidnomad3850]
