A freshman House Democrat is attacking White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt as a 'Fake Christian.'
A first-term House Democrat is attacking White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt on X after she sought to clarify a White House memo rescinding an earlier policy statement on President Donald Trump's federal funding order. 'Karoline Leavitt is a Fake Christian, like so many in this Golden Calf administration,' Rep. Dave Min, D-Calif., wrote on Wednesday.
Leavitt posted on X that it was just the memo that had been rescinded, and that Trump's executive orders targeting diversity, equity and inclusion and other progressive spending priorities remained intact. 'This is NOT a rescission of the federal funding freeze. It is simply a rescission of the OMB memo. Why? To end any confusion created by the court's injunction,' she wrote.
The President's EOs on federal funding remain in full force and effect, and will be rigorously implemented.' Min's comments were directed at Leavitt's aforementioned post. Earlier, the California Democrat criticized Leavitt's comments at a White House press briefing in which she said, 'DOGE and OMB also found that there was about to be 50 million taxpayer dollars that went out the door to fund condoms in Gaza. That is a preposterous waste of taxpayer dollars.
