Karoline Leavitt Called Out Over Ironic Pedophile Protector Comments

Gavin Newsom was among the many critics of White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt’s wild assertion that Democrats are protecting pedophiles.

The California governor’s press office, in a post on X, responded to Leavitt’s comments Monday where she attacked Democrats for criticizing Immigration and Customs Enforcement. She also once again smeared Renee Nicole Good, the Minnesota woman shot and killed by an ICE agent last week under legally dubious circumstances.

Good was “a lunatic who was a part of a group, an organized group to interject and to impede on law enforcement organizations,” Leavitt, 28, asserted. “It’s disgusting what we have seen from the left, and I think it just shows you where the modern-day Democrat [sic] Party stands today, in protecting illegal alien pedophiles and rapists and murderers over law-abiding American citizens and our brave men and women who serve in law enforcement."

Newsom, 58, honed in on Leavitt’s line about pedophiles, reminding everyone that the Justice Department has only released a fraction of its files on Jeffrey Epstein, the dead sex offender who said he was once Trump’s closest friend, despite the legally mandated deadline of Dec. 19.

1. The Trump crime syndicate accusing others of the crimes they themselves commit.

As per usual.

[GiqueCee]

6. "Projection"...

... is a blood sport for these people. And I use the word, people quite loosely.

2. The not-so-subtle message here is that a woman raising children while married to another woman is a pedophile.

That will be the Republican attack when Pete Buttigieg runs for higher office.

3. Stefanik protg

Karoline Leavitt learned well how to be an amoral lying republican from Stefanik.

They both are despicable women

[Johonny]

4. The Republican party reaches new lows

Every day. They really stand for nothing redeemable these days.

5. It is incumbent on those...

... who call themselves journalists to be able to differentiate between words with similar sounds.
One does not "HONE" in on anything, one "HOMES" in, as in homing pigeon, or homing device. It implies the ability to precisely locate a target, such as its home dovecote for a pigeon, or the beach it was born on for a female sea turtle.

One hones a knife. The two are not interchangeable.

Please make a note, Mr. Vaillancourt.

7. Karoline Leavitt has that Hitler language down pat.
