White House Press Briefing with Sarah Sanders, live stream | January 28, 2019

White House press secretary Sarah Sanders is holding the first formal briefing with reporters since before the government shut down last month. The last time Sanders formally fielded questions from reporters in the briefing room was Dec. 18, before the government shutdown and when James Mattis was still the secretary of defense.

Sanders is sure to get questions on how the president plans to negotiate with Democrats to find border wall funding and avoid another shutdown before the funding clock runs out again on Feb. 15. Mr. Trump made a surprise announcement that he would reopen the federal government last week, ending the longest shutdown in U.S. history. She's also sure to receive questions on the indictment of Roger Stone, the president's associate who advised the campaign and faces charges of lying to Congress and obstructing justice.

These are some sick people on that podium. To mention democracy is a simple joke.

[jerryschwartz]

Im wondering which Democrat will be running against Putin in the 2020 Presidential race !!!!

[stevebulbowmd]

Switch the words "Venezuela" with "U.S.", what's the difference? None! The U.S. is doing the exact same thing, without having the sanctions & embargoes imposed by the U.S.

Sarah Sasquatch was sighted once again grunting lies before quickly vanishing into Trump Swamp...

[sosolin]

I am hearing that Sarah is trying to find a job in the private sector, but is having a hard time as people don't seem to want someone who lies all the time...I agree

[vera]

Look who's talking. Like the tea kettle calling the pot black! 🙄

[Bete_Noir]

Come for the lies; stay for the laughs.

[DonCaban]

The lies roll off her tongue effortlessly 🙄😑

[annewollstein]

Basically, I’m not going to answer any of your questions so why bother asking.

[jerryschwartz]

For Sarah the amount of substance she dishes out is measured by how much food she consumes during the day.

[wheezvonklaw]

Hey look she showed up for 1 day of work!

63% of Americans disapproved agent orange. Can we get him out of the White House quick. Is Trump ready to accept million of Venezuelans to come to the US ?

[Notshortever]

This smells. Trump’s not able to manage the US. So he’s now out to “gaslight”

[edcox]

Well mr. Bolton Send your un troops that is supposed to remove mr. Oh whatever his name is and put the new interim in and force their military to do their job that's what the UN is for do your job leave the United States military out of it

[jimtitus]

I'd like to have a buck for every time Sarah says "uh".

[connie]

"LOOK!" [as she starts darn near every sentence], blah, blah, blah, blah, blah!! "I'll have to get back to you on that." [She doesn't] Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah!! She has the same cadence as an auctioneer! It sure sounds good when you say it fast enough [apparently]!!

[vjfbigz]

So...anybody could claim to be the real US president and ask Trump to leave? Nice...

[deloreshollis]

Venezuela have no idea they're about to pay for Trump's wall.

[lindabrooks]

The shortcomings is getting Trump out of the WH and 67%would love to see that!!!

[dawnatkinson]

The Presidents doody??!!
It's DUTY! Americans!
