White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt tore into reporters during a gaggle when many continued to scream and shout questions at two Trump administration officials.
Leavitt attended a gaggle with Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff and National Security Advisor Michael Waltz at the Stakeout Location in front of the White House as they took questions about several foreign policy issues.
After reporters were screaming questions so loudly that Waltz and Witkoff could not respond, Leavitt emerged from behind them and scolded the media.
“Guy, please. Let’s act like adults here. They are generously offering their time to answer your questions. You don’t need to scream at them like a bunch of school children,” Leavitt said.

Leavitt made headlines recently when she announced that the first flights carrying illegal aliens to be housed at Guantanamo Bay were officially “underway.”
During an interview on Fox Business, Leavitt told host Stuart Varney that President Donald Trump was not “messing around” with his plan to deport violent illegal aliens from the United States and return them to their home countries.
“He’s no longer going to allow America to be a dumping ground for illegal criminals from nations all over this world,” Leavitt said.
“Venezuela as well has agreed to repatriation flights and Colombia also agreed to cooperate with the repatriation of illegal Colombian nationals that we have found in the interior of our country,” Leavitt added. “And I can also confirm that today the first flights from the United States to Guantanamo Bay with illegal migrants are underway.”
Leavitt also addressed New Jersey Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy suggesting earlier this week about housing an undocumented immigrant in his home. The governor recently walked back his comments that he had invited an illegal immigrant to live with him.
“I will say that this administration will hold Democrat governors and leaders across the country accountable if they break the law, if they harbor illegal aliens, or if they are not abiding by the federal immigration laws,” Leavitt warned.
