  1. Our government is openly lying to our face. It’s very dangerous that they’re publicly spewing propoganda.

  2. “Well, let me just say something to that effect, Garrett. Sixty-seven percent of all of the injunctions in this century have come against which president? Donald J. Trump,”

    Gee, I wonder why.

  4. Oh once again that tired bullshit about Trump having the most judgments against him means not that he’s doing illegal things but that They® are out to get him.

  5. >”Well, let me just say something to that effect, Garrett. Sixty-seven percent of all of the injunctions in this century have come against which president? Donald J. Trump,” said Leavitt. “This is a clear, concerted effort by leftists who don’t like this president and are trying to impose or slow down his agenda.”

    Or, maybe… i don’t know, Trump is the only President constantly committing crimes. Just something to think about.

  6. Their victimhood never ends. 67% of injunctions against a president being levied against Trump COULD mean that there’s a massive conspiracy against him OR that he routinely breaks the law, perhaps even twice as much as all previous presidents combined. But yes, let’s just automatically go with the explanation in which Trump is an innocent victim. 

  7. White House outlawing fact checking during press briefings in 3…. 2….

  8. They give the percent injunction stat to make it seem like he’s being targeted, ignoring the reason for this being outright obvious unprecedented unlawful behavior 🙄

  11. This executive branch needs a lesson in separation of power. No kings here.

  12. You can’t believe anything coming out of this women’s mouth. She’s been spewing out lies nonstop and gets all upset when she gets caught out.

  13. The Judge they are taking about was Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s roommate in college. Bush appointment, former prosecutor, big CAPITAL R next to their name.

  14. Why do all right-wing women look older than their age? She’s in her twenties and she looks like she’s in her forties. I guess being evil truly does age someone.

  15. It’s crazy how instead of seeing “the most injunctions against any POTUS” as a sign of a POTUS who continues to flout the law, its that this POTUS is being picked on

    Its like a Karen-mom insisting that their child has been put in the naughty corner more times for stealing others kids candy than the rest of the kindergarten, without realizing he just needs to stop stealing candy

  16. “The rules were you guys weren’t gonna fact check”

  18. It’s kind to call her fact-checked when what she’s doing is lying.

  19. Look maybe it’s just because I’m some raving leftist, but I don’t recall Joe Biden or Kamala Harris tweeting at all hours of the day for the specific reason of upsetting half the population. Like why is it so unreasonable that he’s also doing unconstitutional shit. Makes no sense.

  20. “Sixty-seven percent of all of the injunctions in this century have come against which president?”

    That’s because of the higher number of his illegal acts.

  21. This bitch is stupid af, just speed lies like the rest of them and hopes something sticks to the wall for their ignorant base to believe.

  22. “This was Leavitt’s third fact-check from PolitiFact thus far. Leavitt has collected more fact-checks in two months than former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki had in 16 months.”

    Let me just say….hahahahahahahahaha.

  23. I’ve never seen someone take so much pride in being a stupid asshole.

  24. I couldn’t read the article posted, but it was covered in several other articles. It was an interesting deflection when she ignored the “fact check” by citing a statistic (unproven, unsupported) about how badly Trump has been treated by the courts. I was a bit confused by the political bias of the judge in question, because I knew Obama had, indeed, elevated his position. This, from the MSNBC article, was interesting then:

    “But if that weren’t quite enough, NBC News’ Garrett Haake took a moment to remind Leavitt that Boasberg was first made a judge by George W. Bush — who, if memory serves, was not exactly a far-left Democratic partisan — before Obama elevated him to the federal district court. (What’s more, it’s worth noting for context that Boasberg was also appointed to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court by Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts, who has also never been mistaken for a liberal ideologue.)”

    It’s Republican to lie, but to come to a press conference unprepared is just plain stupid. I found this information readily enough; she could have, too.

  25. Bullshit Barbie is every blonde joke you can think about

  27. Hasn’t Trump made ‘fact checking’ a criminal offence yet? Wait for it.

  29. Seems to me, like the bigger issue is their campaign to paint all Obama-era appointed justices (and therfore all their rulings) as illegitimate. That’s the game they’re playing behind the distraction tactic, and the real threat. If they keep sending the message that any ruling by an ‘Obama judge’ can be discarded, you can bet your liberty that a LOT of right-wing officials ARE going to discard them. They won’t even give legitimate reasons, just screech about ‘Obama Judges’ and let the squabbling cover them while the media lap it up, and the judiciary argue back and forth.

    This is what they want, this is what they are working toward, and unless that shit gets buried immediately, this is what will become the new normal. Stop this shit now America, while you still can.

  30. This is the most basic level of fact checking they could do….and they couldn’t do that. Sums up Trumps administrations and policies 100%

  31. “…his wife donated money to the DNC” is not not a form of corruption. Knowing what Ginnie Thomas has done it’s really amazing seeing the clutch pearls. Ffs
