Eric Trump has no idea what he has unleashed when getting into a battle of wits with Jen Psaki, because he doesn’t have many wits. He doesn’t have much of a brain either. We know Ms. Psaki. We know what she can do because we remember her being the first Press Secretary for former President Biden. And she’s only gotten better since then. Consider this a follow-up of sorts from Ursula’s piece yesterday. With appreciation for Raw Story:
MS NOW’s Jen Psaki used her Friday night show to fact-check Eric Trump in real time after the president’s son threatened to sue her and the network over coverage of his business ties during Donald Trump’s state visit to China.
“Today, the adult son of the President of the United States, Eric Trump, came after us on social media and accused us of lying,” the former Biden White House press secretary told viewers on “The Briefing.”
Ahahaha. Accused Ms. Psaki and the network of lying. Well, for one thing, there’s something called the First Amendment. For another, Ms. Psaki doesn’t lie. She doesn’t feel a need to. If she has a story, the background work has been done before she included it in her show. And third, it’s Jen Psaki. Her name says it all right there. She’s experienced. She knows about the “rules of engagement”. And she will cut someone down with facts and proof. It’s a joy to watch her.
“Contrary to her monolog [sic] and blatant lies, I have NEVER been on the board of ALT5 — not now, not ever,” Eric raged on X.
Psaki called the denial a “little confusing” and rolled the tape.
She aired footage from ALT5’s August 2025 Nasdaq opening bell ceremony, where Eric was introduced from the podium not once but three separate times as a board member or director.
Busted. Eric Trump is yet another who should think about what he says before he blurts something out. Ms. Psaki has *proof*. It wouldn’t have been part of her monologue if she didn’t. She knows how this game is played. She is confident. And that has to irk Eric Trump because she is not intimidated by him in the slightest, even with the Trump name attached.
Psaki then walked viewers through the paper trail:
ALT5 publicly announced Eric was joining its board, SEC filings listed him as a director, and the company’s own website identified him as one.
In subsequent SEC filings, he was redesignated as a board “observer” — a nonvoting role that allows him to attend board meetings.
“Eric, of course, says that he has no business interests in China at all,” Psaki concluded, “and that he joined his dad’s official trip there for one reason and one reason alone: as a loving son who adores his dad.
“I’ll let you be the judge.”
Heh. Figuratively nailed him to the wall. Trump has no love for his children, except, possibly, Ivanka. We know all about that little obsession of his. She is staying far away from him, as he’s toxic and possibly wants to protect her daughter. Eric Trump is a moron. He thinks he’s showing everything all above-board and legal. We know better. He can’t hide his wheeling and dealing. All anyone has to do is look, and Ms. Psaki found it. Too bad for him.
See you soon!
Friends, I know everybody begs you for money. I promise you that, of all the outlets bugging you for spare change, we are the smallest and the hardest-working. We’re a bunch of old, disabled people, except one writer in his mid-50s. But the rest of us are in our sixties and seventies, and this is a labor of love. All we’re asking for is the ability to continue our quest to tell the truth about Trump and help ensure democracy survives. If you can help, please do. Thank you. Ursula
She should invite him to come on her show which is after all live each Tues. – Friday. In fact she should do so every week. Or anytime he’s in the news trashing her or talking up his lawsuit which will be like happens most of the time with his P.O.S. sperm donor/father – just a hollow threat.
And Trump doesn’t love anyone but himself. Not even (onetime) wannabe Princess Ivanka. What he felt towards her was LUST and nothing more. Love never factored into it.
A battle of wits between Jen Psaki and a Trump ?
One side fully prepared and ready, and the other side unarmed.
Trump family = witless.
