Top White House officials told a reporter, “Your mom,” when asked who picked the location for Donald Trump’s upcoming meeting with Vladimir Putin.
Trump announced Thursday that he will soon meet with Putin in Budapest, Hungary, to discuss an end to the war in Ukraine. The choice has raised questions, because Putin is wanted by the International Criminal Court. However, Hungary appears unlikely to cooperate with the warrant and is in the process of leaving the court, the Associated Press reports.
When HuffPost asked the White House who chose the location for the meeting, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt replied, “Your mom did.” White House Communications Director Steven Cheung also followed up with, “Your mom,” the outlet reports.
Trolls have taken over the White House… time to stop feeding them.
They have, but you can’t expect journalists to not ask the administration questions. It is literally their job.
There are tons of people in the white house they could call on or off the record. There is no reason to listen to Leavitts propaganda report on the regular. I am surprised they cover her as much as they do, I literally tune her out now because I know everything she says is a lie. Steven Miller is a ghoul, but even he is more honest about what they are doing… whether on purpose or Freudian slips…
It’s their job to get the shitty things they say on the record. That is important, too. I know it doesn’t make anyone feel good but it still has to be done.
Reuters will be there, just get it from them if you need it.
