White House Press Briefing

Wednesday’s White House press briefing began with Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt touting the findings of a CBS News/YouGov flash poll showing a whopping 76 percent of those who saw President Trump’s Tuesday night address to a joint session of Congress liked what they saw, but also ripping CNN’s Chyron Boy and MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace for their rank liberal bias. And, in the Q&A,…

MSNBC’s staggering lack of self-awareness was in rare form Thursday. That night on The 11th Hour, Marty Baron, former executive editor of The Washington Post, opined on the Post’s recent espousal of personal liberty and free market views. Baron was outraged that the paper had taken positions he happened to dislike, and called the move “undemocratic,” suggesting,…

On Tuesday afternoon, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt sent shockwaves down the paper-thin spines of the White House press corps as she declared the end of the press pool as we know it and that the administration, not the smarmy White House Correspondents Association (WHCA) would determine the rotation of reporters who’d accompany the President in tighter confines, such as the Oval…

On Friday, the Associated Press (AP) sued three Trump White House officials – Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, Deputy Chief of Staff Taylor Budowich, and Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt – alleging they violated the First Amendment (and somehow the Fourth Amendment too) by using their stance on the Gulf of America to deprive the AP of their seemingly God-given right to participate in a small,…

Having decided in recent days to collectively settle on a new narrative of painting the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) as a constitutional crisis and defend faceless, unelected bureaucrats as heroes, the liberal media Borg were handed a brutal reality check Wednesday with White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt made clear this disinformation campaign wouldn’t be tolerated.

On Wednesday afternoon, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt’s third press briefing mostly centered around two wildly different issues of transgenderism and the future of the Gaza Strip (especially in light of President Trump’s Tuesday claim the U.S. would take it over). And, as she’s done, called on a wide swath of reporters from legacy liberal networks to our friends in conservative…

Fresh off having been the recipient Friday afternoon of the White House press briefing’s seats for new media, Ruthless Podcast co-host John Ashbrook dished to new 4:00 p.m. Eastern Fox News Channel host Will Cain what it was like to share a room with many of the reporters he had engaged with for years on Capitol Hill, drawing “a lot of my eye rolls and a lot of smirks.”

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt likely made more liberal media heads explode on Friday afternoon as, along with calling on our friends at the Daily Wire and receiving respectful yet tough questions from Fox’s Peter Doocy and Newsmax’s James Rosen, she called on one of the co-hosts from the Ruthless Podcast, a fine “variety progrum.”

President Donald Trump stepped to the White House Briefing Room podium himself on Thursday morning to provide an update on, sound off on, and spar with reporters over Wednesday night’s horrifying crash over the Potomac River near Reagan National Airport between an American Airlines plane and an Army helicopter.

In the first the first White House press briefing of President Donald Trump’s second term, Press Secretary Karoline Levaitt made clear from the onset of the 46-minute-and-36-second briefing things would be different inside the Brady Briefing Room. Along with the opening and closing statements made famous by Kayleigh McEnany, Leavitt announced seats for new media and called on 21 different…

On Thursday afternoon, the great Steven Nelson of the New York Post put more meat on the bone regarding reports bumbling, fumbling, stumbling White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre barred national security advisor and spokesman John Kirby from speaking to reporters about the Israel-Hamas ceasefire and hostage deal because she didn’t want arguably the only adult in the Biden…

Wednesday afternoon brought us the final Biden White House press briefing and, by her own count, the 306th featuring the ever-inept Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre. It featured Jean-Pierre emotionally patting herself on the back, plenty of unanswered questions (mostly stemming from the monumental Israel-Hamas ceasefire deal), the final Jacqui Time, and even Jean-Pierre doing her own…

With the final White House press briefing on Wednesday afternoon, we’re looking back at the best hardballs, tussles, and moments over the hundreds of Biden administration press briefings, primarily helmed by Jen Psaki and Karine Jean-Pierre. The story of the Biden White House press corps is far more complex than Fox News – led by Peter Doocy and Jacqui Heinrich – asking challenging questions…

The Biden White House snuck in a press briefing Friday afternoon amid the House speaker vote hullabaloo and it had the predictable tone of senioritis with networks reaching deep into their bench for correspondents and producers willing to listen to Karine Jean-Pierre stammer and stumble her way through process questions about Biden’s final days in office, Biden blocking the sale of U.S. Steel…
