There it is … Trump’s Press Secretary is lying

Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has been caught red-handed, essentially confessing that the White House deliberately misled the public about the mass firings of tens of thousands of federal government employees. Recent court rulings have deemed these terminations likely unlawful, with judges criticizing the government’s flimsy justifications for the layoffs.

One judge went as far as to say that the government’s claim that the firings were for cause, rather than a mass layoff, was “bordering on the frivolous.” Another judge echoed this sentiment, calling the Trump administration’s actions a “sham.”

Leavitt’s attempt to defend the administration’s actions by arguing that a district court judge cannot interfere with the president’s executive authority is not only false but also a blatant violation of the separation of powers. Legal experts and Supreme Court cases have repeatedly affirmed this principle, despite the Trump administration’s persistent claims to the contrary.

Andrew Heineman, legislative director for U.S. Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY), aptly pointed out that Leavitt’s remarks suggest that the firings were indeed part of Trump’s agenda, Project 2025. This revelation sheds light on the administration’s deceptive tactics and raises serious concerns about its commitment to upholding the law.
