A day after President Biden announced a ban on Russian oil and as gas prices surged to record highs, The Psaki Show featured hardballs Wednesday afternoon on the impact of the Biden economy on consumers. Chiefly, questions from Fox News’s Peter Doocy and Fox Business’s Edward Lawrence led Psaki to struggle to defend the White House’s policies on inflation, gas prices, and a refusal to support expanded domestic energy production.

And following Monday's post-briefing throw down over the length of briefings and how many reporters get to fit in questions, Psaki opened with the AP's Josh Boak (who caused the whole uproar) and then went to reporters not in the first rows. Among them, she called on the New York Post's Steven Nelson and Real Clear Politics's Philip Wegmann.
