“On behalf of my four-year-old nephew, I asked the president what flavor of ice cream he liked the most. It was chocolate chips.”
On the 24th (local time), White House spokesman Jen Saki said in a video posted on his official Twitter account.
In the first tweet posted on the official account on the 20th, “The White House is the people’s home, so please leave your questions in the comments.” “President Biden loves ice cream very much,” he replied, “I’ve worked at the White House in the past, but haven’t found it,” to the question, “Is there really a huge freezer full of ice cream?”
On that day, President Biden also retweeted the video and said, “I confirm that the chocolate chips are right.” In fact, he is known to like ice cream so that even when he was the vice president, the image of eating ice cream was often captured by the camera. At last year’s Democratic Party Congress, the granddaughters laughed when they said, “My grandfather always eats ice cream. I open the refrigerator (behind the door) and eat it without my grandmother’s sight.”
Saki said, “I’m curious about the cat, too” to the question about the current status of “First Cat,” and “I’ll be bombarding the Internet the moment it’s officially nominated.” Previously, it was reported that Biden-elect plans to raise a white house in addition to his dogs’Champ’ and’Major’, but no specific news about’First Cat’ has yet been released.

Saki also answered questions about the new government policy in the video. When asked, “Is there any support for those who can’t work in the aftermath of the novel coronavirus infection (Corona 19)?” he said, “Yes, that’s definitely our goal.” He then explained the presidential executive order to delay repayment of student loans and the Corona 19 economic stimulus plan.
Regarding the’DACA’ system that defers the deportation of illegally immigrant youth, he explained, “Not only is the President trying to protect Dhaka, but also introduced a new immigration bill to give 11 million undocumented immigrants a way to obtain citizenship.” did.
He said on Twitter, “I answered several questions in the video, and I look forward to doing it again in the future.” Saki’s move is interpreted as an intention to increase the transparency of the government and the White House by increasing direct communication with the public. He said in the video that he will work calmly and calmly while receiving difficult questions from reporters. This contrasts with the actions of former President Donald Trump and government officials at the time, who accused the president of critical media as’fake news’.
