AP has deleted a tweet from late Wednesday on Trump’s “animals” comment about immigrants because it wasn’t made clear that he was speaking after a comment about gang members.



Chuck Schumer and Pelosi have not issues retractions nor has NYT.

I hate these people. I hate them to my core and genuinely wish bad things on them for doing this disservice to the Americna people.

Not enough. That’s just sweeping under the rug. Need a full mea culpa.

White House: Calling MS-13 'animals' isn't 'strong enough'


"If the media and liberals want to defend MS-13, they're more than welcome to," White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders told reporters. "Frankly, I don't think the term the president used is strong enough."

The spokesperson rattled off a list of "heinous acts" committed by the gang, including rape, beating a woman with a baseball bat and killing and decapitating a man.

"The term ‘animal’ doesn’t go far enough," she said.

Sanders’s comments are likely to further enflame the debate surrounding Trump’s heated immigration rhetoric. LINK

Their agenda has already been accomplished at this point. Twitter is a literal shite storm of liberals defending MS13 today.

SHS is awesome. You know Spicer is appreciative of having the opportunity but happy as a lark not to have to deal with those bloodthirsty assholes in the media pool anymore.

They do this all the time and they will continue to do so. It is virulent propaganda and this will always be an important tool of the Left.

Every business out there can be sued, prosecuted, shut down, etc. because of government regulation if they are sloppy in how they do business.

Why is there no recourse against the media for doing a sloppy job with their business?

Maybe it's time to start.

Revoke press passes and then see how intellectually honest they quickly become.

The White House/ SHS should continue the dialog about the gangs, AND the misleading reporting. Also hi-lite the Dems who have not corrected the record. Basically rub their noses in it.

I’d have more fun with them. I’d change the dress code to require that the press representatives wear dunce caps and otherwise be treated like the special ed children they are.

Hamas, MS13, and Khalid Sheikh Mohammed.

The new faces of the modern day American left.
