CNN's April Ryan did NOT say that Sarah Sanders' head should be lopped off.


Mike Huckabee has twisted this in order to attack Ryan.

April said that "heads should be lopped off" at the White House for allowing Sanders to lie from the podium.

It's a big mess now, and April is under withering attack from the RW.

It isn't that long ago since Mike Huckabee tweeted that Ryan should be "gutted like a deer."

Wingnuts are calling for Trump to pull Ryan's credentials.

She got to the heart of the fake news mantra the WH and Huckabee Sanders has been spewing for the past year. No wonder the right is attacking her. She is right on.

John Kerry's response comes to mind:

"Are you serious?"

"Seriously?"

"That's pretty funny."

And then very insistently and repeatedly MOVE ON.

They want to talk about how mean you are to poor Huckster? Say, "Now about the Mueller report..."

=or "So the WH press secretary did not actually talk to any FBI agents, though she said she did? Why did she say something that isn't true?"

Our problem is that we try to explain and argue. We need to SCOFF. "Seriously?"
And then move on.

5. Ryan's statement w more context:

"Not only does she not have credibility, she lied. She out an out lied. And the people - the American people, can't trust her. They can't trust what's said from the president's mouthpiece spokesperson from the people's house. Therefore she should be let go, she should be fired, end of story.

When there is a lack of credibility there, you have to start n start lopping the heads off, uh , it's fire me Thursday or fire me Friday, she needs to go."

... well-known faux-Christian hypocrite, proud father of a son accused of torturing a dog to death AND a daughter who "bears false witness" for money.

Republican 'family values' on display.

The only thing Huckabee deserves is to be laughed at. His utter nonsense should not even be acknowledged.
