Joe Biden has hired an all-female senior communications team for his administration, including naming veteran Democratic spokesperson Jen Psaki as his White House press secretary.

Psaki is of Irish, Greek and Polish descent, with her Greek roots in Messinia through her father, James R. Psaki.

“Honored to work again for @JoeBiden, a man I worked on behalf of during the Obama-Biden Admin as he helped lead economic recovery, rebuilt our relationships with partners (turns out good practice) and injected empathy and humanity into nearly every meeting I sat in,” Psaki Tweeted following the announcement.

Psaki, well-known for an endless list of foot-in-mouth gaffes during her work as a spokesperson for the State Department during the Obama period, returned to the media spotlight with the election of Joe Biden, being tapped to become his press secretary.

Jen Psaki temporarily lost her train of thought during Friday’s briefing while listing off the new administration’s claims against Moscow.

That includes the SolarWinds breach, it includes the poisoning of Alexei Navalny, it includes the – I’m kind of losing my thought here – but it includes a number of steps – a number of concerning actions they’ve taken,” Psaki said, responding to a question about why Biden hasn’t yet taken “sanctions action” to “punish” Russia for its alleged misdeeds.
