White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt's latest defense of President Trump is shaping up to be one of the most astonishing displays of denial and deflection in recent memory. In a press briefing that was as awkward as it was bizarre, Leavitt claimed that the latest batch of emails released by Democrats proved "absolutely nothing" about Trump's knowledge of Jeffrey Epstein's alleged wrongdoing.
Leavitt's response to a question from Weijia Jiang of CBS News about whether President Trump spent hours at Epstein's house with a victim was particularly cringe-worthy. When asked if the president ever engaged in such behavior, Leavitt dodged the question by saying that the emails "prove absolutely nothing" and then proceeded to spin a web of deceit, claiming that Trump had done nothing wrong.
The press secretary's denials have all the hallmarks of a badly scripted PR exercise. By dismissing the very real concerns about Epstein's abuse of power and Trump's complicity as a "hoax" concocted by Democrats, Leavitt is attempting to deflect attention from the mounting evidence of wrongdoing.
But what's truly remarkable about this latest development is how quickly the White House has managed to pivot from crisis mode to damage control. After the initial shock wore off, the press briefing turned into a sideshow, with Leavitt expertly manipulating the narrative to shift focus away from Epstein and onto other topics like government shutdowns.
It's a classic move, one that Trump and his team have mastered in recent years. By calling on a friendly correspondent like Reagan Reese of the Daily Caller, Leavitt was able to nuke any momentum that had built around the Epstein story. It's a clever tactic, but it also speaks volumes about the White House's desperation to avoid confronting the elephant in the room.
In short, Karoline Leavitt is now firmly entrenched in "full denial mode," refusing to acknowledge even the smallest hint of wrongdoing by President Trump. Whether this strategy will ultimately work remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: it's a masterclass in spin and PR manipulation that should send shivers down the spines of journalists everywhere.

I'm like "wow" reading about Karoline Leavitt's press briefing 
! Girl, you're trying to spin this whole Epstein situation into thin air 
! I get it, crisis management is tough, but denying reality isn't gonna make it better 
. The White House needs to address these questions head-on, not try to deflect them like they're a bad tweet 
. Can't we just have a real conversation about this? 
meanwhile our government shutdown is still a thing and nobody's touching that 
. Like, I get it, politics can be messy, but this feels like a whole other level of dodgy 
. It's not about being a Democrat or Republican, it's about the truth and accountability 
. Trump's team is good at PR, but at what cost? The White House is basically doing everything in its power to avoid confronting the elephant in the room 
. I hope they can't spin this forever because the American people deserve better transparency 
. It's just so cringeworthy 
. I mean, come on, those emails don't exactly prove a thing... unless you're trying to cover up something. And honestly, it's kinda sus that the White House is pivoting from crisis mode to damage control like they're playing some kind of PR game 
. It just makes me wonder what else they're hiding 
. I hope journalists keep pushing back and not letting them get away with this spin doctor stuff 
I'm still trying to figure out what she's trying to hide.
what's with karoline leavitt and her spin doctor skills tho? like she's trying out for a role in a bad action movie or something 
her deflection game is stronger than a superman 
. Like, what's next? Denying gravity too? 
then tried to spin it into a whole other thing about gov shutdowns lolol what is she even trying to accomplish here? and btw has anyone else noticed how the wh gets super nervous when they get caught in a lie? 
like full denial mode lol i'm lowkey worried about trump's involvement with epstein tho we need more fact-checking ASAP 
... but at what cost? 
. I'm worried about how this is going to play out in the long run... will the White House be able to convince us that they're telling the truth? 
. Leavitt's defense of Trump is like a bad script, you know? She dodges questions left and right, trying to shift the focus away from Epstein's abuse of power. It's like she's trying to cover up something big, but we're not supposed to notice 
. But we know the truth, bro. We just need to keep digging and see how far they'll take this conspiracy 
.
. But let's be real, Karoline Leavitt is basically saying "we know something fishy, but we're not telling" 
. This full denial mode thing better work out for them, or else they'll be the ones getting grilled by the press 
. It's like she thinks we're all just gonna fall for her "absolutely nothing" defense 
. It's like they're trying to distract us from the fact that there's some seriously questionable stuff going on here 
. The White House is just trying to avoid the fact that they're in hot water over this whole Epstein thing. It's like they think we're all going to forget about it and move on 
. You can try to spin it all you want, but at the end of the day, those emails still prove some pretty incriminating stuff 
. And can we talk about how awkward that press briefing was? 
.
. Anyway, I'm not buying it
