The press secretary is supposed to spin the news, not be the news.

On that most essential qualification, the new lead White House spokeswoman, Katie Zacharia, is struggling.

She has presented herself as a lawyer but does not meet the requirements in her home state to use that title. And at least one watchdog group has asked the State Bar of California to investigate.

    So if we condemn her does the cost of living go down?

    She’ll piss off trump and be fired soon enough. It’s really not worth covering.

      Why did you click on this story if it’s not worth covering. You thought it was worth a view and a comment

        You condemn society yet you participate in it? Curios indeed.

        I should edit my og comment to say, reply for free upvotes.

      Are you under the impression everyone has to agree on which stories get covered and attention? For the most part it’s getting covered like all his terrible, incapable and unqualified appointments do. It’s interesting. It’s predictable. And people can pay attention to several things at once. People are still very much focused on his shitty war, shitty economy.

        Apparently my opinion is so wrong you need to come and condemn it though.

        At least you get a cohort siding with you.

        This might be why your bosses lost an election to a felon. This is playing right into his little games.

        People can barely pay attention to whatever you divert their attention to. That bears its self out every single day.

        Its very interesting that anywhere I see a board labeled politics you can only comment the standing mantras of the DNC.

        To those not getting paid to post: Keep fighting the good fight. The old guard is flailing.

          Are you under the impression I’m a paid poster or bot? Even a cursory look at my post history would dispel that notion. I’m also not a centrist or supporter of the dnc, it needs to be broken up and replaced by the actual left.
