Sarah Sanders Made an Unwitting Cameo in the Latest Episode of Murphy Brown, and It Was Savage AF

Art imitates life.

White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders made an unintentional cameo on Murphy Brown Thursday night after the title character charged her way into White House Briefing Room and challenged Sanders on her dishonesty.

Brown, played by Candice Bergen, took over a reporter's turn to speak, which Sanders said was "inappropriate."


"Excuse me, if you really want to talk about what's inappropriate, how about the way you do your job?" Brown quipped. “The role of the White House press secretary is to create transparency in the government and tell the American people the truth, but that’s not what happens in this room."

Social media loved it.

Brown continued her forceful rebuke of Sanders and President Donald Trump's administration.

"Whether it's about a meeting with Russians in Trump Tower or a made-up mandate that requires separation between parents and their children at the border, it all comes down to the same thing, so here's my question," Brown said. "Why do you lie?"

The Briefing Room filled with gasps, as a clip of Sanders responded.

"I think that's a ridiculous question," a recorded Sanders said.

But Brown wasn't done. She turned her attention to her fellow reporters, asking:

"And how demoralizing is it to be called 'the enemy of the people'... if we can't get to the truth, why are we here?"

Brown then urged the journalists in the room to walk out - which they, of course, did not.

Murphy Brown first aired in 1988 and is centered around an aggressive female investigative journalist of the same name. It ran for 10 seasons totaling 247 episodes. After a two-decade hiatus, the show returned to CBS last month for a 13-episode reboot.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
