Irischer Journalist wurde vom Pressesprecher des Weißen Hauses als „linker Hacker“ bezeichnet

> White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt called an Irish journalist a „left-wing hack“ during a heated exchange at a press briefing yesterday.

> Niall Stanage, who works for The Hill newspaper, asked a question about the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent on 7 January.

> When asked for his assessment of the incident, Mr Stanage described the ICE officers‘ actions as „reckless,“ prompting a sharp response from the press secretary.

> When Mr Stanage mentioned that 32 people had died in ICE custody in 2025, Ms Leavitt responded by questioning his credentials as a journalist.

> „You’re not a reporter, you’re posing in this room as a journalist,“ she said. „You’re pretending like you’re a journalist but you’re a left-wing activist.“

> „Yeah, because you’re a left-wing hack, you’re not a reporter, you’re posing in this room as a journalist and it’s so clear by the premise of your question.

> „And you and the people in the media who have such biases but fake like you’re a journalist, you shouldn’t even be sitting in that seat. But you’re pretending like you’re a journalist but you’re a left-wing activist,“ she said.

Party of snowflakes, those Republicans. Incredible how one simple question gets under their skin so severely.

Leavitt is trash.

She’s just following the lead of der Fuhrer.

„Everyone who disagrees with me is a radical extremist“

She is such an angry hag of a woman. Blows my mind that she’s only 28

Christofascist with obvious cheek implants 

If a child doesnt agree with something and has no comeback. Children resort to name calling!

The more they do stuff like this the more petulant and dictatorial they look. They’re not even wearing a mask anymore – it doesn’t need to slip.

Niall Stanage is an excellent and fair reporter. Used to love him each week on The Stand.

I don’t enjoy living in interesting times at all. They are openly floating strategies to suspend elections.

she’s 28 and her husband is 60 and she thinks she tells us what normality is

Had seen this headline but not watched the video so hadnt realised it was Niall Stanage. He writes for the Hill and is a fine journalist

Rather than speak to his line of questioning, she attacks his alleged political allegiance. Joseph Goebels couldn’t teach her anything if he was still around.

She, is fucking nuts

Thats all they can do is lash out arbitrarily.

Trumps admin better disappear when he croaks cos they’re gna get Kirked

Stanage is probably the best journalist to come out of Ireland for decades. Too refer to him as a „hack“ of any political hue is remarkable.
