SAVAGE TAKEDOWN: WH Press Sec Karoline Leavitt rips into liberal media [JD Vance responds]

4

During a White House press briefing Tuesday, press secretary Karoline Leavitt ripped the liberal media to shreds over their misleading reporting of President Donald Trump’s efforts to end the war between Russia and Ukraine.

“One thing that has absolutely not changed is the media’s negative and downright false coverage of President Trump and his foreign policy accomplishments,” she said.

“From the beginning of this entire process, much of the left-wing media has been actively rooting against the President of the United States and the pursuit of peace,” Leavitt declared. “Initially, the media ridiculously claimed that President Trump was somehow beholden to Russia for even agreeing to have a face-to-face discussion with President Putin inside of the United Staes.”

She blasted the “clueless pundits” on television who claimed Trump had failed.

Leavitt cited multiple other peace deals President Trump has achieved, and noted that diplomacy is a delicate process. She blasted those who have tried to undermine the president and sabotage his efforts towards peace, instead of reporting the facts.

Vice President JD Vance commented on the savage takedown, writing, “Karoline Leavitt lighting the American media up for lying about our negotiations with Russia and Ukraine.”

X user ‘Dr. Sherri” wrote, “I wish Karoline would take a few minutes during every press briefing to show headlines from mainstream media outlets that are either mis/disinformation or just outright lies. SHOW THEM and SHAME THEM in front of the world. Maybe that’s what it will take to finally stop them.”

Leavitt also schooled Fox News reporter Jacqui Heinrich, who has taken backlash from conservatives recently over her snarky remarks about President Trump.

Heinrich poked the bear, asking, “Since the President often says that this war would not have started if he were in office…”

Leavitt fired back, “It’s true. Do you accept that as true?”

Heinrich stammered, “Probably.”

WATCH:

Another reporter tried to imply that Leavitt’s report on Russian president Vladimir Putin being willing to meeting with Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy may not be accurate.

“What indications is @POTUS getting from Putin that he wants to have this meeting with Zelensky soon?” the reporter asked.

Without skipping a beat, Leavitt retorted, Because he spoke to him directly yesterday… and the President put that in his statement that he gave to all of you, the news media, knowing you’d be asking.”

Leavitt also put New York Times reporter Shawn McCreesh in his place.

“If the point is to get everybody on the same page, why wouldn’t Trump just take the call from Putin while the other leaders were in the room? He said it would be disrespectful to do that, but why is that disrespectful?” McCreesh suggested.

“With all due respect, only a reporter from The New York Times would ask a question like that, Sean,” Leavitt fired back.

“The president met with all of these European leaders at the White House 48 hours after siting down with President Putin on American soil. In fact, there was so much progress in the readout that was given to these European leaders immediately following his meeting with President Putin, that every single one of them flew on a plane 48 hours later and flew to the United States of America,” she added.

“These leaders, who this war is in their backyard, are very grateful that this president took that call and that he was there to provide them with a readout of Russia’s thinking on this…. something that was not done during the previous administration at all,” she continued.
