Sarah Huckabee Sanders says lots of laughable things in her daily press briefings, but yesterday took the cake, as she proclaimed that "This is an intense place, as is every White House, and it’s not abnormal that you would have people come and go."

This bumpy ride is about to get a lot bumpier. Politics from a progressive point of view, hosted by MOMocrats Karoli, Aliza Worthington, and Donna Schwartz Mills. Follow us on [email protected]@[email protected]
