White House spokesman Sean Spicer is scheduled to give his first "official" press conference of the Trump administration at 1:30 p.m., ET, Monday.

[FES0844]

Sean’s a fighter just like Trump! Bravo!

[hsmomx3]

I like this guy! He tells it like it is and he is not wimpy at all! I am really liking what I see in this administration.

[SoFloFreeper]

So far he is kicking ass on:

Telling the truth & responding to the LIES of the media!

[hsmomx3]

I think it is. Do not want the media to get out there and spread more false information.

[RummyChick]

I think these clowns should be allotted one question in the future.

Not separate questions like April ryan

[locountry1dr]

Karl lost for sure. Spicer moving on.
Was that next question from One American News?!

[COUNTrecount]

Spicer doing a really great job, just took one of the”media” to the wood shed after being questioned about his promise to be truthful when giving his briefings.

He asked for the same truthfulness from them and gave a few instances of how they lied over the last few days.

He’s very calm and mentally agile. Great pick IMHO.

[Reno89519]

Picking up midstream. Definitely holding his own and putting media on notice.

[dragnet2]

Yep, Spicer is a sharp guy...For the first day on the job, he’s handling the lying media very well.

[tcrlaf]

“Screw you. And if you don’t like that, then SCREW YOU!”

[SE Mom]

Unable to watch right now- thanks so much for your reports!

Amazing day.

[RummyChick]

Bringing up the racially charged MLK bust..and then later Lewis lying about attending Bush inauguration was great

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

It was!

[far sider]

Hand them their asses, Spicer.

Maria Liason, NPR: pack your bankers box Maria.

[Chaguito]

Spicer is shining. He has a disarming smile when he is dealing with dopiness.

[TTFlyer]

I would like to personally kick Jonathan Karl’s ass.

[RummyChick]

mARA worried about national security and China taking over due to trade issues

[Truth29]

When a propagandist like Karl carries on like he just did, there needs to be pain meted out to him and his organization (ABC). I hope Spicer gives some thought to how he wants to administer corrective action (skipping over for questions, seating in the bleachers, open ridicule, whatever).

[tumblindice]

Martha Raddatz on ABC giving the objective truth as to what the press conference meant, comrades.
