Karoline Leavitt is now basically saying the truth is whatever Trump says it is. She says he'll "unleash hell" on Iran. This cultlike sadistic BS is appalling at a moment of such gravity. It doesn't belong in WH briefing room.

@emilyhorne.bsky.social and me on this:

I know that we are guaranteed the freedom of speech by the Constitution for the majority of what we say and I believe in it. However, this kind of bald-faced lying every minute of every day needs to somehow, some way stop being allowed.

This is an aside rather than a criticism, but the sanctity of the WH briefing room seems rather notional when you can remember Larry Speakes joking about AIDS when thousands of people were dying.

Let’s send Karoline Leavitt over to Iran to tell them they’ve lost and to stop threatening us bc that would be the last time this dumb and dirty girl will ever say the stupid things she says. Go, Karoline, go!

The biggest miscalculation any world leader could make is to think there’s any benefit to accepting a deal where donald trump is one of the parties. Whatever he agrees to will not ever actually happen. His word is worthless. He has no integrity or honor.

It is now a waste of time listening to the press briefings unless you are interested in seeing how they spin it or for us to work off of in order to prove they are lying.

Those hacks are not even original.

"Unleash hell" is a phrase from Ridley Scott's "Gladiator", and was pretty much criticized for its anachronism.

There was NO HELL in Rome at that time.

And those creeps use it like a punchline.

As @emilyhorne.bsky.social notes, Leavitt, like her boss, believes that "by owning your opponents, you somehow dominate." But her opponents are the reporters who ask challenging questions and therefore risk being CRUSHED in Fox-worthy video clips. Domination politics all the way down.

The "sadistic relishing-of-domination aspect" is a defining attribute of this regime. It comes from Cheeto Benito's fear of appearing weak. A fear that many weak people share.
