How Karine Jean-Pierre Just Helped the Committee to Defeat the President

On June 7, Dan Backer, attorney for the Committee to Defeat the President PAC, sent the FEC a supplemental letter asking them to enforce federal law and make President Joe Biden file the required forms to declare himself a candidate in 2024. The letter cited public statements Biden and others made that provided further support to the complaint the group filed in October of 2021. Last week, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre boosted Backer’s case.
Backer believes that Jean-Pierre’s statement bolstered the PAC’s complaint, and he submitted an additional supplemental letter that includes it. She is not an unnamed source and has direct contact with Biden regularly. “The press secretary’s public statement underlines our legal case. Biden has clearly formed the requisite mental intent to run for president in 2024. It is time for him to be honest and file the required FEC forms so groups like the Committee to Defeat the President can begin opposing him directly,” Backer said.
Backer asserts that the FEC complaint filed by the PAC was well-substantiated before Jean-Pierre’s tweet. Her clear statement makes the violation blatant. According to Backer, Biden’s campaign committee is still intact and spending money. That infrastructure only exists to run for office. “Short of his death in office, Biden will run in 2024,” Backer predicted confidently.
