Karoline Leavitt briefly lost her cool with a reporter with the New York Times on Tuesday when he asked her about President Donald Trump’s call with Putin.
The White House press secretary snapped at Shawn McCreesh when he asked Leavitt, 27, why he took the call in secret while meeting with several European leaders.
All the leaders were there to work out a way to end the conflict in Ukraine.
“If the point is to get everybody on the same page, why wouldn’t Trump just take the call from Putin when the other leaders were in the room?” McCreesh asked.
“He said that it would be ‘disrespectful’ to do that. But why is it disrespectful?”

The press secretary then unleashed her fury at him: “With all due respect, only a reporter from The New York Times would ask a question like that, Shawn.”
She added, “The president met with all of these European leaders at the White House 48 hours after sitting down with President Putin on American soil.”
“In fact, there was so much progress in the readout that was given to these European leaders following his meeting with President Putin, that every single one of them got on a plane 48 hours later and flew to the United States of America,” Leavitt continued.
“And if I could just read some of the quotes from the leaders yesterday.”

Leavitt then launched into various quotes from leaders, including President Volodymyr Zelensky, who allegedly said it was “a very good conversation, it was really good. We spoke about very sensitive points.”
Mark Rutte, the Secretary General of NATO, said that “it was only because of this president that this deadlock was broken with President Putin by starting a dialogue.”
“These leaders who this war is in their backyard are very grateful that the president took that call, and he was there to provide them with a readout of Russia’s thinking on this,” Leavitt concluded.
“Something that was not done by the previous administration at all.”

Secret call
It was reported that President Trump halted his very important meeting with the heads of several countries on Monday to take a call with Putin.
German newspaper Bild reportedly said the meeting will continue after the call.
He reportedly took the call away from the East Room, where the European leaders were gathered.

Earlier, Trump told reporters in the Oval Office that Putin was “expecting my call after this meeting.”
What Trump and Putin discussed is not currently known.
It came after the president met publicly and later in private with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to discuss steps toward an agreement between Russia and Ukraine to cease fighting.
Ending the war between the two countries has been a longtime promise of Trump, who claimed he would end the three-and-a-half-year conflict on his first day in office.
Now, in mid-August, he has made little headway in brokering an end to the fighting, which claimed the lives of hundreds of thousands of both Russian and Ukrainian troops.

Despite the red-carpet pomp and visual display of U.S. military might, Friday’s peace summit in Alaska produced little in the way of new agreements with Putin.

💥 “NO CAMERAS. NO PRESS. JUST THREE NAMES THE WORLD THOUGHT THEY KNEW.” 🌪️ When the Category-5 monster Hurricane Melissa tore through Jamaica, help was nowhere in sight. Then — without a single announcement — a private jet touched down at dawn. Inside: Rachel Maddow. Stephen Colbert. Joy Reid. No sponsors. No cameras. No entourage. They brought 5 tons of food, medicine, water filters, and $1.5 million in aid, all paid from their own pockets. Locals said they worked through the night — lifting boxes, feeding children, treating wounds — not a single word about fame or press. And when a volunteer asked why they came, Joy Reid quietly answered: “Because the news doesn’t need to cover this — humanity does.” By morning, they were gone. No selfies. No headlines. Just whispers spreading across the island — “Were those really them?” Nobody knows who leaked the flight manifest. But one thing’s certain: this wasn’t charity.
