Kayleigh McEnany: New York Times and Washington Post should return Pulitzers after 'irresponsible' reporting on Russian bounties

White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany said the New York Times and the Washington Post should return their Pulitzer Prizes after reports about U.S. intelligence officials warning about a Russian spy unit offering bounties to Taliban militants to kill U.S. and other coalition troops in Afghanistan.

"It is inexcusable the failed Russia reporting of the New York Times, and I think it’s time that the New York Times and also the Washington Post hand back their Pulitzers," McEnany said during a press briefing on Monday.

Both outlets reported on intelligence about the bounties. The New York Times, which last week was the first to report the alleged cash incentives, also claimed President Trump was briefed about the intelligence in March and had declined to take any retaliatory action against Russia.

McEnany, who issued a statement over the weekend denying the briefing took place, echoed Trump's tweet late Sunday, saying the U.S. intelligence community deemed the bounty allegations to lack credibility.

Only Never Trumpeteers and liberals would believe such garbage in the first place.  I'd lay odds that they still believe it and refuse to acknowledge the continued manipulation of the media to bring Trump down.

No way I'll take that bet.

Let the Pulitzers remain.
They are now as meaningful as the Nobel Peace Prize.

Freedom of the press is not without limits.  Trump has the absolute power to sue them.

She absolutely rocks! I really liked Huckabee-Sanders, but I like McEnany better.
