Karine Jean-Pierre Wiki – Karine Jean-Pierre Biography
White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre received scorn on social media on Tuesday, September 6, after she accidentally named Russia’s Nord Stream 1 pipeline ‘Nordstrom’, a department store.
The lapse incident occurred during Tuesday’s press conference, in which President Biden’s main spokeswoman accused Russia of shutting down Nord Stream 1, the main pipeline that supplies natural gas from Russia to Europe. “What we see Russia doing, we’ve been very clear about, they’re using energy, they’re weaponizing energy,” Jean-Pierre told reporters. “One of the things that’s been there…they shut down the Nordstrom 1 pipeline.”

Incident Detail
Senator Ted Cruz, who never leaves an opportunity to criticize Jean-Pierre, immediately took to his Twitter account and shared the clip of Karine’s mistake with a caption that read: “This was not a slip. Biden gave it to Putin as a gift from Nordstrom’s.” It doesn’t take long for the clip to spread across the internet like wildfire and leave Joe Biden’s press secretary the butt of the joke.
Fox Radio host Jimmy Failla also poked fun at Jean-Pierre while tweeting, “Not sure which is worse, that Karine Jean Pierre just called it The NORDSTROM Pipeline, or that Biden yelled at his TV, ‘no Silly, it’s Bloomingdales. “Don’t look now,” radio host Chris Stigall tweeted. “Russia is attacking Nordstrom. Watch out for Macy’s! “If Old Navy is attacked, I’m bracing myself. You can have my shorts when you take them off my cold, dead hands!” one person tweeted. “What is this world coming to?” said another user. “Will the Chinese do the same by closing Saks Fifth Avenue?”
During the briefing, Jean-Pierre was responding to a Kremlin official, who claimed that Western sanctions on Russia over its invasion of Ukraine were to blame for cuts in Moscow’s natural gas supply to Europe. The ‘Nordstorm’ blunder came after Senator Ted Cruz invited Jean to visit the southern border after she said immigrants were not “walking” into the country. In response to Cruz’s invitation, Jean said that he had already been to the border and later criticized Cruz by linking him to the Trump administration’s immigration policies. “So I was at the border, I went in 2018. I stood outside the facility where the Trump administration was separating families, ripping babies from their mothers’ arms,” ??he said.
On Sunday, while attacking President Biden and Jean-Pierre for their attacks on MAGA extremists, Cruz took to his Twitter and wrote: “Joe Biden and his press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, have crossed a threshold: they are attacking the American people and they are deliberately demonizing half the country. It’s dangerous, dishonest and wrong.
