One thing Democrats and the press do in perfect concert is make hundreds of selective edits and misrepresentations about what Republicans actually say, think, or do, so that they can put it in the worst possible light and make it seems wrong, bad, or absurd. It’s their number one shared tool, really.

And there was another perfect example this week at a press briefing when New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman just fully misrepresented what Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick told Margaret Brennan during the hostile and ridiculous debate she tried to have with him on Sunday’s “Face the Nation.”

See Brennan is a bad actor in the worst sense, and of course she has never and WOULD never grill Biden’s commerce secretary or any Democrat’s like she did Lutnick – instead she would do what they always do with Democrat officials. She’d have them on just to ask about why Republicans are bad.

But despite Brennan’s motivated attack, Lutnick kept his cool and dealt with her absurd objections and claims smoothly and correctly.

But did that pay off? No, because a few days later, Maggie Haberman pulled this in a press briefing.

She selectively edited the quote. And now the media will selectively edit the clip from the briefing to make Leavitt look like SHE was wrong.

This is what they do. Even when you handle them, they just lie anyway. It’s just not even worth dealing with the MSM most of the time.
