Why didn’t Karoline Leavitt initially say the video was wrong, was posted by a staffer, and apologize?

She did none of those things.

She just blamed Democrats for “fake outrage.”

If you hear someone saying that they hope lawyers are ready to go to court to protect free and fair elections, I suggest you let them know that my law firm is already litigating more than 80 voting and election cases in 40 states.

The vile video is racist. Period. And it came from a racist White House. If you can't say that, what are we doing here.

Was driving my kids to school and the first thing on the radio was reporting about Trump's video depicting the Obamas as apes and I think many people still don't fully appreciate what it means to have to raise Black children in a country where the president is so brazenly and consistently racist

So, first of all, of course it was Trump.

But even if they were telling the truth, "We give staffers who post videos of the Obamas as apes access to the agenda-setting, decree-sending, market-moving account of the president of the United States" is not the exculpatory statement they think it is.

BESSENT: “We created a dollar shortage in Iran… it came to a grand culmination in December when one of the largest banks went under and there was a run on the bank, Iranian currency went into free fall, inflation exploded, people were out in the street.”

A pretty big admission.

Can we not know the name of the alleged staffer posting racist shit from Trump’s account, or would that be “doxing” too?

1. What is this person’s name?

2. How many of Trump’s posts, which impact the markets & foreign policy, are being made by this person?

3. Have they been fired?

The White House taken down the racist post about the Obamas with this short explanation: "A White House staffer erroneously made the post. It has been taken down."

A staffer posted it. From Trump's account. At 11pm.

Sure.

I hope Dems begin to see that moderate or progressive, AIPAC is not our friend.

They endorse January 6th insurrectionists. Yet if you so much as suggest the US uphold its own Leahy laws, no matter your record, they will work against you.
