President Donald Trump has picked some good people to speak on his behalf and that of his administration, but it seems very clear that current White House Press Secretary Kaleigh McEnany is the stand-out.
On a near-daily basis, she fights back hard against the jackals who pretend to be unbiased journalists, handling their inane, pointless, clown-like questions with aplomb and, when appropriate, verve and vigor.
But she doesn’t just take zero guff from the perfumed, blow-dried, perpetually outraged Washington Press Corps. She’ll take on a Left-wing loser no matter where they come from.

Including the city of Chicago, where ineffectual Mayor Lori Lightfoot, like her predecessors, is doing nothing to prove her love for black lives. In fact, you could argue that based on the rising rates of black-on-black homicide in her city, she’s much more into genocide than Black Lives Matter.
During a press conference Thursday, McEnany blasted Lightfoot as “derelict” in her duty to protect lives, and especially black lives.
Reporter: In an interview with CBS News, President Trump said, “More white people are killed,” as an answer to why black people are still being killed by police officers. But by population percentages, black people are about three times more likely than white people to die in a police encounter. If the President won’t even acknowledge that, how can he fix the problem?
McEnany: The President has routinely acknowledged and expressed the absolute atrocity of the case of George Floyd, and his heart goes out to that family still. He was noting a fact that there were — when you look at unarmed killings with police interactions in this country, that you had 9 unarmed black individuals who were fatally shot and 19 unarmed white individuals. That’s down from 38 and 32, respectively, in 2015. So numbers have actually come down since the Obama administration. He was making that point.
But one point he wants to strongly make is this: that black men and women who die of homicide, they’re likely to die of homicide at eight times greater than that of white individuals and Hispanics combined. That’s the rate combined. So that’s an extraordinary thing that we want to look at.
I’ve listed for you the names of these kids who have died across this country. It is unacceptable, and under this President, he’ll take action. And the derelict mayor of Chicago should step up and ask for federal help because she’s doing a very poor job at securing her streets.
The truth bomb triggered Lightfoot – nothing new – into denouncing McEnany with a racist epithet.
“Hey, Karen. Watch your mouth,” Lightfoot clapped.
Needless to say, the Left would lose their minds if some white person were to come up with some sort of racially tinged ‘name’ for a gay black woman.

But McEnany didn’t have to jump down into the gutter to join Lightfoot. She managed to backhand the hapless mayor with a massive truth bomb.
“While you‘re focused on words, America is outraged by the violence perpetuated in your city. One person is taking action to stop violence in our streets: President @realDonaldTrump. He’s offered your city help. It’s a dereliction of duty not to take it,” she tweeted back.
The truth hurts in so many ways, huh mayor?
