Leavitt: "The WH relished the opportunity yesterday to actually create a new website to share the facts with the American public, but also all those in this room. We knew the media would be covering January 6 quite a bit b/c they think it's something the American people still believe their lies on"

The fact the press don’t all walk out at this point is shameful.

1. It's too bad there isn't one journalist with hair on his/her ass to call Leavitt out on her bullshit.

2. The most infuriating part is that the media is incapable of calling blatant propaganda "propaganda".

They can defame and smear democrats with impunity, to the point of ending careers over molehills or even utter fabrications.

But they can't call a liar a liar, they can't call a criminal a criminal, they can't call propaganda propaganda, etc.

5. Jan 6 was worse than 9/11 by a long shot. In fact, I'm sick and tired of hearing about 9/11.

BTW, has Leavitt ever spoken out against the Oklahoma City bombing carried out by cross-wearing Republicans?

Harris warned people. Biden warned people. But George Clooney and Jon Stewart were so focused on BS they didn't see the big picture. Now we're fucked. Never forgive, never forget.

Sad times. 2026 is going to be an awful year.
