The Trump administration missed the House Intelligence Committee’s deadline to submit evidence of Donald Trump’s lie that President Obama wiretapped Trump Tower, but they have managed to provide fodder for some much-needed comic relief from the steady stream of awful news that they generate. Trump White House counselor Kellyanne Conway provoked much-deserved derision with her suggestion […]

Donald Trump seems to have committed an impeachable offense by libeling President Obama. After Trump declared, as fact, that Obama had wiretapped Trump Tower, the White House immediately announced it would comment no further until Congress investigated his unsubstantiated claim. But that bluff is coming due: The House Intelligence Committee has set a deadline for the White […]

Senior White House adviser Kellyanne Conway is a ruthless cheerleader for Donald Trump, with no regard for truth or consequences. She has tried to get journalists fired for criticizing Trump; she used an appearance on TV to tell people to buy Ivanka Trump products, which ethics watchdogs said may have violated federal law; and she ludicrously defended White House press secretary […]

MSNBC’s Morning Joe is normally a more-than-friendly ally to Donald Trump, a fact which the network has not been shy about advertising. But as the Trump administration continues to descend into chaos and corruption, that relationship is showing signs of strain. Host Joe Scarborough recently ripped Trump senior policy adviser Stephen Miller’s despotic understanding of […]

White House Counselor Kellyanne Conway has been out of sight for a while, after a slew of missteps and blatant dishonesty with the media and the American people. She finally reappeared at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) annual gathering, where she criticized feminism as “anti-male” and “very pro-abortion,” and claimed of her boss, Donald Trump: […]

The Trump administration has had a rough time executing its communications strategy on the resignation of disgraced National Security Advisor Michael Flynn. In announcing the resignation, Donald Trump did not address the circumstances of Flynn’s resignation at all. And in multiple interviews, White House counselor Kellyanne Conway repeatedly stated that the decision to resign was Flynn’s, […]

National Security Advisor Michael Flynn resigned in disgrace amid revelations that the White House has known, for several weeks, that Flynn lied about his contact with the Russian government. In interviews following the resignation, White House counselor Kellyanne Conway rolled out a baffling communications strategy that included repeatedly stressing the important role Flynn continued to play after […]

Donald Trump can be described in many, many ways, but being a friend to women is surely not the first thing (or second, or third, or thousandth) that would come to mind for most people. This is a man who bragged and joked about committing sexual assault; who used his position as a beauty pageant […]

White House Counselor Kellyanne Conway lies with such frequency that she has even coined the brand new term “alternative facts” for brazen untruths. And now she may have outdone herself, and even her liar-in-chief boss, during an appearance on MSNBC’s Hardball with Chris Matthews when she accused the media of failing to cover a terrorist attack — […]

Kellyanne Conway has taken kleptocracy under the Trump administration from the implied to the overt in her most recent comments on Fox News. Turning her appearance into a literal advertisement for Ivanka Trump’s line of apparel, Conway told viewers: Go buy Ivanka’s stuff, is what I would tell you. I hate shopping, but I am […]

On Fox News Sunday, host Chris Wallace asked White House counselor Kellyanne Conway about Donald Trump Chief Strategist and white nationalist Steve Bannon’s suggestion that the media “keep its mouth shut.” After complaining about media outlets reporting on her absurd characterization of lies as “alternative facts,” Conway took Bannon’s notion a good deal further by calling […]

A major flashpoint of Donald Trump’s candidacy, and now his presidency, is his ongoing failure to release any detailed financial disclosure about his taxes. Every single major party candidate for president after 1976 has released at least one year of their tax returns. It is an essential gesture of transparency to ensure no candidate has unethical […]

Jake Tapper has made his disgust with Donald Trump‘s administration apparent, and on CNN’s The Lead, he got the opportunity to hold them accountable by grilling White House counselor Kellyanne Conway for nearly half an hour. The bulk of the interview consisted of desperate spin from Conway, punctuated by Tapper’s blunt confrontations of the facts, but […]

At the 2016 Golden Globe awards show, award factory and national treasure Meryl Streep delivered an impassioned speech in which she blasted President-elect Donald Trump for mocking disabled reporter Serge Kovaleski. Trump characteristically reacted by attacking Streep on Twitter, and once again lying about the well-reported fact that he crudely imitated Kovaleski’s appearance and bodily movements […]

Kellyanne Conway has proven such an adept liar that CNN, which has been frozen out by the Trump administration, declined to have her as a guest on this week’s State of the Union. As if to demonstrate the wisdom of that choice, Conway took to Fox News’ Mediabuzz program to defend herself over the fake […]

President-elect Donald Trump’s campaign of lies and deflections to protect Russia from blame for the cyberattacks that the FBI and CIA say were intended to help Trump win the election has become more and more desperate by the day. While Trump himself phoned the New York Times ahead of his security briefing on Russian interference, […]

In a conversation on Fox and Friends, host Brian Kilmeade asked White House counselor Kellyanne Conway whether the sanctions placed on Russia by President Obama in response to that country’s interference in our election would be a topic of conversation during Donald Trump’s first official phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Conway’s answer was […]

The Trump Transition has announced that Kellyanne Conway will be staying on as part of the team, in the role of Counselor to the President. Conway, said Trump in a statement, “has been a trusted advisor and strategist who played a crucial role in my victory. She is a tireless and tenacious advocate of my […]

Kellyanne Conway is a ubiquitous presence on the airwaves, advocating for Donald Trump, whose campaign she manages. But Conway’s past criticisms of Trump are catching up with her (and him): Trump's current manager agrees that Trump built his wealth on the backs of poor and working people. She gets it. pic.twitter.com/lLYN0bUfPk — Lovina Box (@lovinabox) […]

You see the donor community starting to come around to their fellow billionaire. They want to help as well. There’s also a generational split here. You see some of the Grand Wizards…the Grand Poohbahs of the party coming over and saying, “I support Donald Trump now.” At the time, it just seemed like a rather […]
