Pro-Trump site gets 1st question at White House briefing
Associated Press ^ | Jan 24, 2017 11:21 PM EST

White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer took the first question at his briefing Tuesday from a reporter who works for LifeZette, a website founded by Donald Trump supporter Laura Ingraham that published some untrue stories during the 2016 presidential campaign.

Last year, LifeZette released a video, “Clinton Body Count,” that promoted a conspiracy theory that Hillary and Bill Clinton had ties to the deaths of several colleagues and Democrats. Another video posted two weeks before the election promoted false claims that voting machines in 16 states could be compromised because they were linked to a company tied to liberal activist George Soros. …

The reporter, Jim Stinson, asked Spicer when President Trump would follow through on campaign promises about immigration.

The shock! He actually asked a real, relevant question as opposed to something about crowd size, releasing tax returns, or voter fraud. Maybe AP should hire some real journalists who can ask meaningful questions.

In can't wait for the Skype reporters to join in the daily briefings. That should move the MSM down a couple of notches on the pecking order.

I went to a high school with a class size avg of 75. ~500 total 7-12 grades. In my 4 years in HS there was one successful and one attempted suicide. One electrocution farm accident. One death by railroad/car accident. One student who shot his abusive step-father to protect his mother. Those are the ones I know of off the top of my head. My point is that circumstances are different for everyone.

Oh and with my girls in HS there was at least one suicide and one car accident death but they are at a much larger school and I would have expected it statistically.

That being said statistically I think the Clinton’s are suspect.

It’s killing the MSM that they are being put on the same level as everyone else.

Man, does that make me happy.

I will be fifty this year, ave worked for several corporations and sell to the general public.

I do not know of ONE mysterious death among those I know. I know of no one who was murdered and don’t know anyone who died by suicide.

It is very strange how many people in the Clinton’s sphere of influence that have died under suspicious circumstances, by suicide, murder or accidental death.

These people are like the plague.

2nd day in a row that Spicer defecated on the tradition that AP always gets the first question of the day.

Time for the mutha fakin’ msm to retire. Their days of prominence are done.
