LIVE TV MELTDOWN! A veteran reporter just torched their own career after dropping a jaw-dropping insult on Karoline Leavitt.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt found herself in the cross-hairs during a heated briefing after an Associated Press reporter suggested that President Trump’s proposed tariff program amounted to a hidden tax hike. From the first question, it was clear the exchange would be anything but routine.

The journalist asked why the president—who campaigned on broad tax cuts—was now “raising taxes” through tariffs. Leavitt pushed back hard, insisting that the administration’s policy was “absolutely not a tax increase on Americans,” but rather a strategic tax on foreign governments that have “been defrauding us for decades.”

Leavitt framed tariffs as a corrective measure designed to rebalance trade, shield domestic industries, and, over time, lower the tax burden on U.S. workers. “Tariffs aren’t about squeezing American families,” she said. “They are about stopping countries that dump cheap goods, manipulate currency, and hollow out our manufacturing base. If they want to keep exploiting loopholes, they will pay— not Main Street.” She argued that any short-term price pressure on importers would be offset by long-term gains: stronger supply chains at home, upward pressure on wages, and an American economy less exposed to foreign shocks.

Pressed on whether businesses simply pass those costs to shoppers, the press secretary acknowledged that importers could face higher upfront expenses. Nevertheless, she maintained that “fair, reciprocal trade” would ultimately leave more money in U.S. pockets. The administration’s broader tax agenda, she reminded reporters, still included cutting taxes on overtime, tips, and Social Security benefits—evidence, she said, that the president remained committed to lightening the overall tax load on working families. “When the playing field is level,” she added, “wages rise, jobs stay here, and growth accelerates.”
