Sarah Sanders Is Getting Dragged for Her Latest Absurd Talking Point in Response to Questions About the Indictment of Roger Stone

Riiiiight.

As news broke of yet another member of Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign team being indicted, White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders made a statement to the press corps. Despite the indictment of Roger Stone being related to his false statements about Trump's campaign, Sanders claimed it was unrelated to the President or White House in any way.

Often criticized for her ability to lie and attempts to shift blame, Sanders talents were on full display.


When a press corps member asked about President Trump's Twitter posts about Roger Stone prior to his indictment, Sanders deflected by calling the question insulting instead of answering. So how did Sanders justify her claim that Stone's indictment was unrelated to President Trump?

She did not; she just made the claim and deflected any attempts to request clarification or justification.

Sanders later appeared on CNN and again evaded all direct questions.

While the White House press corps has little recourse against Sanders dishonesty and evasion, the public can let the White House know what they think through the President's favorite form of communication: Twitter.

People took to the social media site to express their viewpoints which mainly criticized Trump's Press Secretary. Some wondered why a simple answer was not the appropriate response to questions about the President's involvement.

Some compared her behavior to the North Korean propaganda machine.

And accused her of lying.

Stone was charged on seven counts, including obstruction of an official proceeding, making false statements and witness tampering. All charges are related to his involvement in the 2016 Trump presidential campaign.

Fox News Host Apologizes After His Suggestion That Homeless People Be Euthanized Sparks Outrage

Fox and Friends host Brian Kilmeade was criticized for suggesting that homeless people with mental health issues get "involuntary lethal injection" after the murder of Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska on a train in North Carolina—and was swiftly condemned for an insincere apology several days after the fact as many are calling for Fox News to terminate his contract.

Zarutska was stabbed to death at the East/West Boulevard station on the Lynx Blue Line in Charlotte last month; her killer, a homeless man with a history of mental health issues, has since been charged with first-degree murder.

Nancy Mace Just Tried To Claim She's Never 'Dehumanized' Her Colleagues—And The Internet Brought The Receipts

South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace was called out for hypocrisy after she claimed on CNN that Democrats in Congress have been "dehumanizing" Republicans, a move she would "never" do—despite her record of doing just that.

Speaking to anchor Katie Bolduan while the search for the suspect who killed far-right activist Charlie Kirk was ongoing, Mace objected to Bolduan's observation that she was using "us v. them" language, only saying that things are "very one-sided right now." She also suggested that the situation is so bad for her that she's actually afraid of "just walking out in public."
