White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt snapped at CNN’s Kaitlan Collins after asking a question about the ongoing scandal regarding Atlantic editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg. The heated moment came after Collins asked if Donald Trump felt misled by his National security advisors.

During the press briefing, Collins asked, “Since we have these messages released and you have said that the president had now personally reviewed them in the chat and at one point Pete had wrote ‘1415 strike drones on target and in all caps he said this is when the first bombs will definitely drop.’”

Karoline, who is known to have clashes with journalists, added, “Does the president feel that he was misled by his national security advisors, whoever it was that told him there was no classified information in there now that he’s seen these messages?”

The question seemed to draw the ire of the 27-year-old, who laid into Collins. ” I have now been asked and answered this question three times by the both of you, ” said Leavitte while indicating another reporter. ” And I have given you my answer. The president feels the same as he did yesterday.”

Collins attempted to ask the press secretary a follow-up question, but was swiftly cut off by Leavitt, who called on another reporter in the room. ” I have a follow-up on what you have just said,” she begins while interrupting the other reporter.

“Kaitlan, I am not taking your follow-up,” Leavitt said coldly. Collins once again tried to interject but was once again cut off by Leavitte, who more sternly said,”Kaitlan, I am not taking your follow-up.”

While trying to maintain her composure, Leavitte continued to take questions from reporters about the thread. However, during the man’s follow-up question, Leavitt once again loses her cool.

“Again, I have now been asked and answered this same question using different language multiple times,” she seethed. “Now, if anybody has a different question, there is a lot of different things going on in the world. We have tariffs possibly being implemented later today which the president will talk about at 4 pm.”

Finally, after realizing that most of the assembled press only wanted to talk about the text thread, Leavitt called an abrupt end to the conference and stormed off the stage in a fit of rage.

This is not the first time that Collins has been the recipient of a hostile comment from Leavitt. Earlier this month, the press secretary was ranting about Joe Biden’s ‘mental state’ in her justification for President Trump’s Donald Trump’s new action – nixing the former president’s pardons over an ‘autopen’ signature – when she began to mention the potential that Biden didn’t know his signature was being used.

“Is there any evidence on that?” asked CNN reporter Kaitlan Collins. “You’re a reporter – you should find out if the president was even consulted about his legally binding signature being,” said Leavitt with a smug smile.
