The enormous relief I felt first listening to Jen Psaki giving the White House briefs was huge. Finally, after four years of chaos and incompetence, Psaki brought a voice of reason, competence, and intelligent discourse.

I was sad when Jen left the White House appointment, because I loved watching her sparring with Peter Doocey and other combatants in the WH Press sessions. I am delighted to watch her programmes on MSNBC, she is always clear and incisive.

Trump's press people either were evasive or lying, so it was a total waste of time to even bother watching, because we knew more than they did! Also the same way Trump's press conferences were, lying and only calling on people from Fox or friendly to trump!

I have loved Jen Psaki ever since I did a double-take watching how prepared, competent, and in-control she was from her first press briefing for Obama. It was always mesmerizing to watch her flip through her 3-ring binder for information WHILE intelligently answering a question. She is an incredible role-model for EVERYONE. Perhaps running for president could be in our future. What a game-changer that would be!
I agree with Mika, Jen was amazing. I am 60 and have seen a lot of press secretaries and you blow them all away. I was so sad when you quit, but I completely understand and more power to you, you are doing an amazing job!!
I seldom find public figures like actors, singers, politicians, journalists etc. believable, but Jen Psaki I have always found believable! Straight forward and no BS! Admirable!

I was looked passed for a job when I was pregnant back in 2007 so it's awesome that there are people who support you no matter what!!

Definitely the only WH press secretary that I would or could listen to the full briefing 👍TY
What a great group of women. This is such a heartwarming dialogue of professional women whose voices need to be heard. Please continue on ladies. The world needs to know these positive role models ❤
Seeing those pictures of Obama with kids always makes me smile. 😊
That was one of the best interviews I've had the pleasure of listening to. I have always loved Jens tanasaty. She has the confidence to stand when others might hesitate. I haven't read your book, I do not need to wish you well. You have made your own pedestal, and you deserve the greatest heights you can achieve. You deserve the honor you enjoy because of your positive attitude. You are a QUEEN of the debate stage. I will listen about any topic you speak on. I love you attitude, continue to knock them down when they are wrong. Love you girl and never stop. The book is something even males can learn from! BONBS, YES you are and never stop!

Some of the best scenes in TWW are CJ in the press room
As I grew up in the deep south born in the early 50s and a teen in the 60s, a young woman in the 70s through the 90s, I so wish I had known so much of what know today as a senior citizen. I did learn to stand up for myself and not let other dominate my life or belittle me because I was "just a woman" like I saw so many of my peers go through. I made it through on my own terms and had I known much of what these women learned early in their lives; I could have done it even better. Never let anyone make you feel inferior just because you are a woman, you have worth and value as much as anyone else. It's your life and you should be the one to have the say in it, not others.
What a wonderful panel of bright, gracious women!
Great show Ladies / need more of this group , You girls really respect each other. Again, very entertaining. 😊
Great conversation.
Those spats with Peter Ducie were unmissable - if there was a referee the contest would have been stopped with Ducie unable to continue! Big props on the book Jen!
Psaki is a national treasure. I expect to see her in additional government roles, and I hope those are big roles!
I really enjoyed listening to all of you great role models for up coming young women. Love 🥰 Yo all. From Uk 🇬🇧👍
I love Jen. She was the only reason I ever watched press briefings.
Jen is a Rockstar, Hugh Appreciation for all she has Accomplished at the High Level she has always Shown Us. 😀👍👍👍

You are great Jen!! You always give us the truth. Thank you. Congratulations.
So good to see Mika in the "chair", great job Mika! No surprise that we can all get so much out of a discussion with a smart, skilled, collegial woman guiding it, and apart from an overbearing, controlling co-chair on that "other" format. Kudos, Mika, wonderful job! Congratulations, Jen. And thanks to all of your guests. 🙏
So nice seeing you all together in the same discussion!
My favorite press secretary! Honest, frank, to the point & never backs down.
The Psaki Bombs were absolute gems!
Jen was the first Press Secretary I ever regularly watched just because without a crisis. I learned so much, can't wait to read her book to learn more. I 💯 agree with Mika!
An intelligent and articulate person! Thanks Jen! 💙
Jen was phenomenal as press secretary!!!
I wouldn't call the major issue an abortion issue. It is "reproductive health" "women's health" issue.
It needs to be easier to pin mornings with Mika! I appreciate all the amazing women on this panel.
This was a nice segment. Love Jen, such a pro ❤
I wish Jen would have run for Governor of Arkansas. Much respect for those who tell us the truth.
Thank you folks. I’m a guy, and long past ready for women to run the whole show. We men have fouled the planet immeasurably, and show no signs of wising up. Fix it ladies.
Really love and appreciate Jen's ability to have run press briefings at the WH in the manner she had. What an absolute professional. It was really awesome to have her as Biden's press secretary. Particularly after the prior admin's disastrous messaging. 💙🇺🇸🌊
