@UConnWBB Up by almost 40 points and you keep your best players in? I would have rested them to make sure they’re healthy for March Madness. Luckily no injuries
here's the full clip of Karoline Leavitt getting big mad when Kaitlan Collins presses her on Hegseth complaining about press coverage of US troop deaths
BREAKING: President Trump is rightfully contemplating revoking CNN reporter Kaitlan Collins’ press pass due to her persistent interruptions and blatant disrespect toward him.
Do you support President Trump on this matter?
YES or NO? 👇
BREAKING: CNN's Kaitlan Collins boldly strikes back at Karoline Leavitt after she disgracefully attacked her for daring to ask about dead U.S. service members in Iran.
The press is done being bullied by these fascists...
"Needless to say, our coverage of Americans who have made the ultimate sacrifice for their country is not about the president, and it’s not about CNN either,” Collins said on show. “It’s about the people that you’re looking at here. Captain Cody Khork. Sergeant 1st Class Noah Tietjens. Sergeant 1st Class Nicole Amor. And Sergeant Declan Coady.”
“It’s also for those whose names the Pentagon just released tonight, the other two who were killed, Major Jeffrey O’Brien and Chief Warrant Officer 3 Robert Marzan. May they rest in peace, and may their memory be a blessing for their families, their loved ones and their nation," she added.
This defense of herself against MAGA smears comes in the wake of a contentious press briefing with the White House Press Secretary. Collins asked Leavitt if the administration believes that coverage of U.S. military deaths by the media is an attempt to "make the president look bad" as claimed by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
"Is it the position of this administration that the press should not prominently cover the deaths of U.S. service members?" asked Collins.
"No, it's the position of this administration that the press in this room and the press across the country should accurately report on the success of Operation Epic Fury and the damage it is doing to the rogue Iranian regime that has threatened the lives of every single American in this room," said Leavitt. "If the Iranian regime had their choice, they would kill every single person in this room."
"And so we can all be very grateful that we have an administration and that we have men and women in our armed forces who are willing to sacrifice their own lives for the rest of us in this room and for every American across the country and for every troop that is based in the Middle East," Leavitt added.
The tragedy here is that the men and women killed in Trump's war aren't actually dying to save Americans back home. Iran posed no immediate threat to us and was negotiating with the White House when America and Israel launched their surprise attack. Our troops are dying because Trump launched a war of choice on behalf of Israel, something that Marco Rubio admitted only to later backtrack on.
Leavitt went on to obfuscate in rambling remarks to Collins and made the absurd claim that we've "never had a Secretary of Defense" who "cares more" than Pete Hegseth. In reality, he's a bloodthirsty drunk who has no idea what he's doing and he couldn't care less about how many people die.
"As you know, we cover the deaths of U.S. service members under every president," said Collins.
"The press does only want to make the President look bad. That's a fact!" raged Leavitt. "Especially you and especially CNN. And the Secretary of Defense cares deeply about our warfighters and our men and women in uniform."
She then spewed more propaganda about how much the administration supposedly cares, before attacking Collins again.
"You and your network know that you take every single thing this administration says and tries to use it to make the President look bad," complained Leavitt. "That is an objectable fact."
"I don't think covering troop deaths is trying to make the President look bad," said Collins.
"If you're trying to argue right now that CNN's overwhelming coverage is not negative of President Donald Trump, I think the American people would tend to agree. And your ratings would tend to disagree with that," said Leavitt.
We commend for Collins for standing up for herself!
Please ❤️ and share if you stand with Kaitlan Collins
When she inherited the border from the Biden administration, it was a disaster. Overrun by migrant caravans.
In the last 12 months, there have been zero illegal border crossings.
She did an outstanding job, and I hope there are big things waiting for her in the future.
At a Home Depot, a shopper browsing the clearance aisle spots several items originally priced at $150 marked down to $0.01. Curious, he takes four of them to self-checkout and scans them, each rings up for a penny. As he’s finishing, an employee rushes over and says he needs manager approval before purchasing. She walks away to get one. While she’s gone, he completes the transaction and pays. When she returns, she scolds him and tries to take the items back. Police are eventually called. After reviewing the receipt and rescanning the items, officers tell him the price stands and he’s free to leave with his purchase.
It’s a tough balance between honoring posted prices and preventing system errors from costing businesses thousands. At the same time, once a transaction is completed legally, it becomes a matter of policy and fairness. Situations like this show how important clear pricing rules and calm communication, really are.
If a store’s system rings something up at a penny, is the customer entitled to it, or does the store have the right to correct what may be a pricing mistake?
This man is convinced he’s at Walmart and not Costco. When you sign up for a membership at Costco, it clearly states in the agreement you signed off on that they are allowed to check your receipt.
When this man was trying to leave Costco, he refused to show his receipt and as expected they wouldn’t let him leave. He then creates a scene and accuses them of accusing him of stealing and detaining him against his will.
They push his cart inside the store and call for a manager. Do you think this guy really thought he could walk out without showing his receipt, do you think he might be one of those guys looking for a lawsuit?
A 85 y/o woman kept harassing her neighbor about the rope lights in his back yard saying they were too bright & they kept her from sleeping. She would come at 1:30 am & wake him up & the cops were even called.One day he realized she was just lonely & wanted attention
