Karoline Leavitt strongly disapproves of "individuals who are putting their middle finger, proudly so, at the camera..."

[Miles Archer]

Leavitt was criticizing protests against the Trump administration’s immigration enforcement actions in Minnesota when she held up an image showing demonstrators standing beside a damaged car bearing the graffiti “Fuck ICE.”

“You have these individuals who are putting their middle finger, proudly so, at the camera,” Leavitt noted.

Critics were quick to point out the irony, noting that her boss, President Donald Trump, was caught on camera just days earlier flipping off a heckling autoworker and twice telling him, “Fuck you.”

“Who wants to tell her?” one commenter asked on X, formerly Twitter.

8. A blonde bullshit barbie. Like a lot of his lawyers. I'm surprised Trump didn't make Noem dye her hair blonde.

2. Bigger question: Did any of the journalists at the press briefing tell her? Or did they all stay silent?

I think she knew exactly what she was doing.

10. Thanks for the pretend outrage Miss Information.

Do you think they have a sash that says, "Miss Information" that they pass down to each new press secretary?

They really should....

They would probably wear it proudly thinking it was a compliment....

[lastlib]

11. So why don't you RESIGN, Karo-Lyin'??

If you disapprove so much, why do you continue to work for the slimeball whi DID what you criticize??

Short answer can only be that you're a HYPOCRITE and a friggin' IDIOT!!

14. KKKaroline...

You DO know who made a sewer of our public discourse and raised schoolyard trash-talk and Bullying to our Politics. He's a classless Pig.
I suspect he's your "Dream Lover" and you Lie Together.
I hope your sentence is to have to spend the rest of your life sharing a cell together. You deserve each other.

16. Middle Finger Salute

There once was Leavitt, quite stern,
At gestures she wouldn’t discern.
She scolded a crowd
Flipping fingers out loud,
Saying, “Such manners should never return!”

She waved an old photo around,
Of protesters with graffiti profound.
A car battered sore,
With words "FUCK ICE" aimed at ICE on the door—
“Disgraceful!” she scolded, red-faced and wound.

Yet critics all raised an eyebrow,
Recalling a clip from just now:
Her boss on the scene,
Not exactly serene,
With a finger and phrase to allow.

He’d told a heckler off twice,
With language not sugar nor nice.
So the crowd on the net
Didn’t soon let her forget,
That hypocrisy isn’t precise.

“Who’s going to tell her?” they cried,
On X where the snark did reside.
For the finger she feared
Had quite recently appeared—
From the desk on the Oval’s inside.

[Ars Longa]

17. She will viciously deny he ever did these gestures. I like

this perfect parody of her......

[chowder66]

18. I bet she knows and gets thrilled with the responses.

[LiberalLovinLug]

19. ""Who wants to tell her?" one commenter asked on X"

SO TELL HER!!!

Most reporters are still afraid to upset the Trumpists by confronting them like that.

[AllaN01Bear]

20. reflecting .?

[mr715]

23. The press should crucify her. nt

[LudwigPastorius]

24. Funny that a person who walks around with a cross around her neck has...
