Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt's tense exchange with reporter over Trump's South Africa meeting

Listen to White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt’s media briefing Thursday, May 22. At one point, Leavitt has a tense exchange with a reporter questioning President Trump’s use of a video when meeting with South Africa’s president allegedly showing white crosses representing the deaths of white farmers in South Africa.

The reporter questions the video and what it is depicting, and Leavitt, responds with, “that’s a ridiculous line of questioning.”

She went on to discuss other topics, including Trump’s “big, beautiful bill” act, recent deportation flights, and Iran nuclear talks.
