Biden stands by BLM nominee linked to tree-spiking plot despite new revelations, Psaki says
Fox News
President Biden is standing by his decision to nominate Tracy Stone-Manning to lead the Bureau of Land Management despite contradictory accounts of her involvement in a 1989 tree-spiking plot, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said Monday.
Republican lawmakers say the revelations disprove Stone-Manning’s claims in testimony to Congress that she was not involved in planning the plot nor targeted in a criminal investigation. During her daily press briefing, Psaki was asked the recent reports had changed Biden’s stance on Stone-Manning’s candidacy. "It has not. He stands by his nominee and looks forward to her getting confirmed."More Related News
