Psaki allegedly agreed to apologize for misleading comments on Biden checking his watch

Former White House press secretary Jen Psaki allegedly asked the Foreign Affairs Committee to pass along an apology to Gold Star families for denying President Biden checked his watch during a ceremony.

Psaki agreed to a closed-door transcribed interview with the House Foreign Affairs Committee on Friday regarding the chaotic 2021 Afghanistan evacuation. Psaki served as press secretary at the time and allegedly answered questions regarding claims that she made multiple untrue statements regarding the operation.

Reports from inside the committee suggested at one point Psaki was asked if she had any comments for the Gold Star families offended by her previous statements.

GOLD STAR FATHER RIPS 'VILE, SHAMELESS' PSAKI FOR 'LIES' ABOUT BIDEN CHECKING WATCH DURING CEREMONY

"The chairman asked Ms. Psaki about her comments regarding President Biden looking at his watch while at Dover [Air Force Base] and asked her if she had anything she wanted to say to the families on the record," Leslie Shedd, Foreign Affairs Committee majority spokeswoman, said in a statement to the Washington Examiner.

The statement continued, "After pressing her multiple times if she had something she wanted to say to them, Ms. Psaki asked the chairman to pass along her apology to the families and to express her regret for the pain she caused them. He has done that."

GOP Florida Rep. Mike Waltz appeared to confirm the exchange, congratulating Psaki on X for doing the right thing.

"Just left the House Foreign Affairs interview with Jen Psaki. She agreed to apologize to the 13 Afghanistan Gold Star families whom she falsely contradicted in her book when she said Biden didn’t look at his watch. This isn’t a partisan or gotcha moment. This is the right thing to do
