Jeffries calls Karoline Leavitt a 'stone-cold liar'
Key takeaways
- I think that what s interesting to me, as you pointed out, is that the so-called White House press secretary, who s a disgrace, she s a stone-cold liar, Jeffries said during a House press conference.
- She pointed to remarks made by Jeffries last week, when he said Republicans would be targeted with maximum warfare if they proceed with redistricting efforts in Florida.
- This political violence stems from a systemic demonization of him and his supporters by commentators, by elected members of the Democrat party and even some in the media, Leavitt told reporters Monday.
Why this matters: political developments that affect policy direction and public trust.
I think that what s interesting to me, as you pointed out, is that the so-called White House press secretary, who s a disgrace, she s a stone-cold liar, Jeffries said during a House press conference.
She had the nerve to stand up there and read talking points being critical of statements all taken out of context that Democrats have made and didn t have a word to say about anything that MAGA extremists have said or done, including providing aid and comfort to violent insurrectionists here at this capital on January 6th who brutally beat police officers, he added.
During a Monday briefing at the White House, Leavitt called out a number of high profile Democrats over their past rhetoric in the wake of the shooting, where a gunman targeted President Trump and other administration officials at the the annual gala in Washington.
