Why Can't Leftist Outlets Figure Out That It Goes Very Badly for Them When They Cross Karoline Leavitt?

Another day, another hit job on Trump and his team by a liberal, TDS-riddled mainstream media outlet… and another day when White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt stomps all over them by pointing out how dishonest they are.

The press has at one point or another predicted the imminent firing of virtually every member of the president’s Cabinet, from War Secretary Pete Hegseth to Health and Human Services boss RFK Jr. to Attorney General Pam Bondi. 

True, Trump did show Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem the door on March 5, but she’s still got a gig in the administration as Special Envoy for the Shield of the Americas.

This time, it’s Politico coming out with a hot take: two of Trump’s Cabinet members are “flummoxed” by their jobs, and the implication is that Trump is seething with them.

President Donald Trump once pledged his incoming “energy dominance” team would bring about a golden age of American prosperity and global peace.

Now, 15 months later, the Trump administration’s self-described “Tiger Team” led by Interior Secretary Doug Burgum and Energy Secretary Chris Wright appears flummoxed by the surge in global oil prices in the wake of the U.S. attack on Iran and is scrambling to head off a bout of energy-driven inflation.

Politico doesn't supply a lot to back up their assertions, instead relying on the whispers of supposed White House insiders and opinions from disgruntled people who are not in the administration. 

Neither Wright nor Burgum has seemed at all flummoxed in the slightest at recent events and hearings, with both regularly appearing publicly to tout the success of the administration’s policies.

Leavitt readied her stance in the batter’s box, took measure of the pitcher, saw a low-hanging curveball coming in… and smashed the heck out of it.

Leavitt’s tweet continued, and she didn’t mince words, saying Politico provides “garbage”:

 I was literally just on Air Force One with President Trump watching Secretary Wright on television, and the President was saying he couldn’t be happier with both Doug and Chris.

There is nobody more qualified to lead in this critical moment, and to implement President Trump’s American energy dominance agenda.

Politico continues to prove they are garbage gossip trash fueled by cowardly anonymous sources.

Game, set, and match, TKO, the fat lady has sung, whatever fits. I don’t need to add commentary to her post because she said all that needs to be said.

The mainstream/corrupt/corporate/insert-your-term-here media got so used to being able to spin and lie and gaslight at will during the Obama years, the Biden nightmare, and even Trump’s first term. With the growing influence of conservative outlets like RedState, the freeing of Twitter (now X) by Elon Musk, and Trump team officials like Leavitt, who don’t just stand there and take it, leftie journos are having a hard time getting consistently called out on their BS (just ask the serial fabulists at CNN).

The 28-year-old Leavitt continues to impress, and D.C. journos might want to start thinking twice before making up stuff and printing it — or they'll soon be facing her wrath.
