SOT, Jen Psaki, White House Press Secretary: “As you noted, we have seen that and we were monitoring reports of protests in Kazakhstan. We support calls for calm, for protesters to express themselves peacefully, and for authorities to exercise restraint. There are some crazy Russian claims about the US being behind this, so let me just use this opportunity to convey that it’s absolutely false, and clearly a part of the standard Russian disinformation playbook we’ve seen a lot of in past years.”

SOT, Jen Psaki, White House Press Secretary: “He sees January 6 as a tragic culmination of what those four years under President Trump did to our country. And they reflected the importance to the president of winning what he has called many times, and you have heard him call many times, the ‘battle for the soul of our nation.’ So just as you heard him say on January 6 of last year, I would expect that President Biden will lay out the significance of what happened at the Capitol, and the singular responsibility President Trump has for the chaos and carnage that we saw, and he will forcibly push back on the lies spread by the former President in an attempt to mislead the American people and his own supporters, as well as distract from his role and what happened. So he will of course speak to the moment, to the importance and history of the peaceful transfer of power of what we need to do to protect our own democracy and be forward-looking, but he will also reflect on the role his predecessor had.”

SOT, Jen Psaki, White House Press Secretary: “The president’s going to speak to the truth of what happened, not the lies that some have spread since, and the peril opposed to the Rule of Law and our system of democratic governance. He will also speak to the work we still need to do to secure and strengthen our democracy and our institutions, to reject the hatred and lies we saw on January 6 and to unite our country. I’d also note that President Biden has been clear-eyed about the threat the former president represents to our democracy and how the former president constantly works to undermine basic American values and Rule of Law, and President Biden has of course spoken repeatedly about how the former president abused his office, undermined the constitution, and ignored his oath to the American people in an effort to amass more power for himself and his allies.”
