Karoline Leavitt’s got a new reason why Iran’s leadership had to die and it’s her most extraordinary declaration yet
To the White House now, where White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters precisely why Iran’s leadership ‘are no longer on planet Earth’.
Presumably she means dead, rather than taking a previously undisclosed Elon Musk test flight to Mars.
Anyway, we mention it because this particular reason is surely the new dictionary definition of ‘beggars belief’.

They didn’t negotiate quick enough so he killed them. And these people surely said it best.

This is an absolutely INSANE thing to say out loud. We killed their leaders in the middle of negotiations because we didn’t like the way they negotiated?!?! https://t.co/S1AlxkVT0A

Is the press secretary saying that the president had the leaders of other nations killed because they lied to him? She said that out loud? That’s insane. https://t.co/1FLyw46EVi

Since when did lying to the US as a negotiating tactic become a legitimate cause for assassination? https://t.co/PDYSzNkLiX

Absolute bombshell. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt casually confesses on live TV that the Trump administration assassinated previous Iranian leaders just because they strung the US along in negotiations. Washington is openly operating like a global mafia cartel. pic.twitter.com/leCEsRkli7
