K-K-Karoline calls Wall Street Journal "Fake News" - Today's WSJ rips Trump Administration a new one...

[RobDownSouth]

At yesterday's White House Press Conference, Mr. Trump's DEI Press Secretary K-K-Karoline Leavitt had one of her increasingly common screechfest meltdowns. (Kinda disheartening how we have rationalized her behavior to the point where this is no longer considered 'newsworthy'). It was her third meltdown in the past four pressers.

Yesterday's victim was a pool reporter for the Wall Street Journal. He asked for a minor clarification about a Signalgate principal (was so-and-so in Russia or in the United States? There had been conflicting accounts...) K-K-Karoline erupted into a red-faced spasm of indignant Mean Grrl fury, accusing the Wall Street Journal...the freakin' WALL STREET JOURNAL....of promoting "FAKE NEWS blah blah blah LIES blah blah blah ERRONEOUS".

The poobahs of the WSJ had heard enough, and two editorials in the Wall Street Journal ripped the Trump Administration a new asshole.

First, they

criticized “JD Vance’s contempt for allies” and the vice president’s apparent willingness “to let the Houthis shut down shipping to spite the Europeans.” The editorial suggested Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth had been “cavalier about the details of incoming military strikes” and was “silly” to try to “shift the blame for the fiasco on the journalist who was put on the chat.” It suggested Trump negotiator Steve Witkoff “is out of his depth in dealing with world crises,” and it warned that “America’s allies may conclude they can no longer trust the U.S. in a crisis.”

And then dropped the Thundering Hammer of Murdoch

“The White House won’t let bad enough alone when it comes to the Signal app fiasco,” it thundered. While conceding the White House’s point about the adviser’s phone, it blasted the administration’s “defensive insistence that the chat didn’t disclose any ‘war plans,’ which is a weak attempt at obfuscation.” Criticizing Hegseth for trying to dismiss the flap as a hoax, it concluded that the administration “seems to think it can bully its way through anything by shouting Fake News and attacking the press” but should instead “take the loss.”

In no reality that I've ever heard of would the feckin' Wall Street Journal be leading the charge against Trumpian incompetency!

In the movie, that is an image of a bomb dropping on the wrong target.

Why in the fuck didn’t they make the bomb they’re riding a caricature of Trump???

Because then it would have resembled the log flume ride at Six Flags.

Betting pool is open on Hegseth’s last day as secd and KKKs last day as press sec.

K-K-Karoline gone by the fourth of July.
Pickled Pete Hegseth gone by Christmas.
I thought Musk would have outlived his political usefullness by March 31st, I'm guessing Memorial Day is more realistic.

Has Trump ever fired an appointee for incompetence?

I think he only fires people for disloyalty, which means Hegseth and Leavitt are safe forever.

The thing is once Trump's sychophantic incompetents all lose their jobs from massive fuck-ups, who does he go to staff the government?

If Fox News hosts are the second tier, who's next? Random picks from his MAGAt rallies?

Laura Loomer has been wearing her frilliest sexy dresses each time she's invited to the White House.
She's tan, fit, and willing.

I don't think he ever has. He kept "Doctor" Ben Carson on as Housing secretary after Carson insisted Egyptian pyramids were "grain silos".

It's be like on Oprah. "You're a Cabinet secretary, and you're a secretary, and you're a secretary . . ."

It wouldn’t be randos from his rallies, because it has been widely reported that behind closed doors DonOld makes it quite clear that he can’t stand the common MAGAts.

And I guarantee that ^ holds true for EVERY ELITE in DonOld’s circle (cabal) - double for Melania.

Odds that the Trump White House bans minority journalists from covering press briefings or events?

Nah, too obvious.

But somebody should tell Hegseth that.

K-K-Karoline Leavitt's scheduled press conference today is expected to be the "Mother of All Shit Shows".

Pundits are say Ms. Leavitt, who owns no less than two dozen gold crosses to wear each day to keep vampires away as well as dog-whistle her support for Christian Nationalism (and a not-so-subtle reminder to Jews to 'stay in their lane') is expected borrow the Branson Cross for "extra protection".

(Just look up "Branson Cross" folks, I had to do that too......................)
