Jean-Pierre Refuses to Condemn Rep. Jayapal for Calling ‘To Be Balanced’ in Criticism of Hamas’ Rapes

EXCERPT:

JEAN-PIERRE: "So, we’ve been very, very clear, you head a little bit from Jake Sullivan about this. I could only speak for the president. That’s who I can speak for. And we've been clear that what Hamas did is absolutely reprehensible and, full stop, we’re going to continue to be clear about that. And we think about rape and the use of rape as being used as a weapon, that is also reprehensible and that’s full stop. And I’ll just leave it there. And that's speaking for the president of the United States, so I think that been very clear that."
