Kellyanne Conway is out there, retweeting white nationalists with heart emojis

I loathe Kellyanne Conway. I loathe the fact that she still gets sent out to do interviews. I loathe the fact that media outlets still speak to her (although that seems to be changing). Many people believe that Conway will be one of the next heads to roll in the Baby Fists administration, mostly because her double-speak and nonsensical arguments have become a liability. Yesterday morning, Matt Lauer’s interview with Conway went viral because Lauer actually did his job and called her out on her BS.

I’ll admit it – while I’m glad that journalists are rediscovering their stones, I couldn’t even watch this whole interview because she’s so f–king terrible. Still, she tweeted this yesterday, almost as if she knows that she’s in danger of being fired:

Meanwhile, Conway is still dealing with her “go buy Ivanka’s stuff” pronouncement on Fox News – the US Ethics Office is calling for a full investigation of the matter and Conway specifically.

And here’s the last thing – Kellyanne’s Twitter account retweeted and sent love to a white nationalist/Nazi. When asked about it by Buzzfeed, Conway basically said that someone else had tweeted that from her account. The tweets were later deleted. Mother Jones compiled a list of all the times Trump and his people cozied up to white supremacists online and then tried to act like they had no idea what they were doing.

    Gawd she is so effing disgusting!!! Can’t wait to see her go down in a huge flame of glory!

  2. Patricia says:

    I am SO glad that madame doublespeak is on the decline. She has a rotting soul and I can barely stomach a minute of her. I did watch her NOT ANSWER the essential question over and over yesterday and it made my blood boil.

    But as a human being, as a person who is determined to hold onto my compassion even in the face of such deplorable behavior, I did sadly notice that she looks like she’s lost even more of her badly needed weight and she looks very unwell. And I felt a little bit of sadness for this poor wretch of a woman. I wonder if this is how she thought her life would be?

    • Esmom says:

      I was with you until you said you felt a little sadness for her. I commend your compassionate nature but I can’t find a single reason to feel sorry for this despicable troll. She’s reaping what she sowed.

      • tracking says:

        +1000

      • Aims says:

        I’m with you Esmom . I have zero compassion for anyone who is associated with this deplorable administration . They know who and what they got in bed with. She is a willing to do and say anything to justify the hate and illegal behavior of this clown. These are scary times we’re in. I cannot understand how this is happening and am disgusted and angry . I cannot understand how a blatant racist is even allowed into the office and then to have their spokesman give this trash a thumbs-up is more then I can bear. I’m really really angry. They should all be in jail.

      • Giddy says:

        I think of all the times she snarkiky said “You lost. Get over it.” And then I have no compassion for her.

      • Christin says:

        She saw things up close and still chose this role, and seemed smugly content just days ago. I wonder how her 4 kids are coping, though.

      • Lahdidahbaby says:

        Troll! Yes, Esmom, that’s the epithet I was looking for. It says it all, succinctly and so aptly.

      • vaultdweller101 says:

        She wasn’t forced to join the Trump administration. She made a choice. Sometimes I feel badly for people who make dumb choices, because we’ve all been there, but I feel nothing but schadenfreude when I look at Kellyanne.

    • Odette says:

      She looked defeated — and it filled me with joy!

      • Marlena says:

        As I said could not happen to nicer people, right?

      • RedWeatherTiger says:

        Me too! I’d really like to see her (and her pack of GOP goons, too) paraded around for public humiliation, though, a la Cersei Lannister. SHAME.

    • greenmonster says:

      Please don’t feel sorry for her. Her life doesn’t have to be this way. She CHOSE this path with Baby Fists. She is just as disgusting as everyone else in Trump’s team. They want to take away people’s rights and freedom. so don’t give ANY of them your sadness.

    • Darkladi says:

      Patricia, I commend you. All I have for this gargoyle-faced dementor are 2 middle fingers.

    • SusanneToo says:

      @Patricia I posted this yesterday, but I’ll repost to encourage you not to feel too sad for conjob. This is how she chose to live her life and make her money.

      “Conway is president and CEO of the Polling Company, which she founded in 1995. Her company often works with Republican candidates to appeal to female voters and the client list, according to CNN, reads like a who’s who of conservative politicians and organizations: Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, Newt Gingrich’s former presidential campaign, Reps. Steve King and Michele Bachmann, FreedomWorks, Americans for Prosperity, the Heritage Foundation, National Rifle Association, and Family Research Council.

      One of her clients, Todd Akin, a Republican representative from Missouri, drew sharp criticism during his failed U.S. Senate run in 2012 when he referred to “legitimate rape,” saying in a TV interview, “If it’s a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down.”

      Earlier in her career, Kellyanne Fitzpatrick (her maiden name) appeared on TV frequently to attack the Clintons. (Since the ’90s, she’s provided commentary on more than 1,200 TV shows.)”

    • Agapanthus says:

      I agree she doesn’t look well. It’s as if the poison within is leaking outwards and melting her slowly.

    • Miss Melissa says:

      I don’t think myself less humane to feel zero sympathy for her, especially after watching the video montage of her trashing Trump before being hired on his campaign.

      She is a complete fraud, a lying hypocrite who sold her soul for money, and her own words prove it. She reaps what she has sown.

  3. Farah says:

    Can we talk about the fact that she’s not lying. She’s just so out of the loop. Morning Joe (I know, I hate myself) said that Bannon and co aren’t telling her things. She just books herself on TV to get Trump to notice her. He literally implied that she books (not the WH press office) herself for these things.

    Other sources are saying that she’s the one leaking the Spicer’s done stories. She wanted to be Press Secretary. Reince Priebus vetoed it. Bannon and Trump didn’t fight for her. Now she’s angling for his job. But she’s just making an enemy out of Bannon. And they used to be close since they’re both Mercer Family shills.

    • mia girl says:

      Yes! I just posted the Morning Joe clip before seeing your comment. They have totally exposed her. Clearly the fame-hungry Conway SNL skits are based on truth.

    • Marlena says:

      That’s very interesting Farah. It would certainly make a lot of sense. I have to admit it fill my cold liberal-whiny heart ( did I get that right, safe-spaces-needing-trump-shills?) that there seems to be a huge amount of infighting with the Trump administration. Could not happen to nicer people. I would assume many of them are darwin fans (those that are not evangelical nut jobs that is), so how about it? Survival of the fittest? Let’s see who is still standing when Trumpyboy gets impeached for being too stupid to understand what a blind trust is (among other things) 🙂

      • Farah says:

        There’s always been in-fighting. There’s the Lewandoski loyalist, the Manafort loyalist and the Bannon/previously also Conway loyalist and the Priebus/Spicer camp. There are all fighting for favor with Trump. And then there’s Jarred Kushner who hates Lewandoski, and is currently annoyed by Bannon.

    • Merry says:

      Morning Joe didnt even imply it. He said it straight up that she books herself on shows even though she knows she is out of the circle. And then Mika muttered multiple times that they will not book her on the show again because she knows nothing but lies to cover that up. I knew Kellyanne saw that clip because every interview she has given since contains the phrases “I spoke to the President this morning and he said…,” and “the President wants me to tell you….” Kellyanne desperately wants us to believe that she is in the circle when she absolutely is not. Getting Trumps phone handler to follow her on Twitter today is evidence that its driving her crazy. Pass the popcorn.

      • Christin says:

        It’s as if he has two communication reps. Spicey for the podium, and Mascara Runner for the one-on-one news shows.

    • Neelyo says:

      THE MERCER FAMILY!!! They are as bad or worse than the Kochs. Their greed is boundless and they don’t give a fuck if society has to pay for it as long as they get theirs. It would be great if they were somehow implicated in all of this but they are cocooned by all of their money and will probably go on their merry way looking for another political pawn to do their bidding.

      • Farah says:

        Robert Mercer is legit crazy. He funds Breitbart. He hates democrats because they dared to tax him a few percentage points. He’s the reason Ted Cruz sold his soul to Trump. This time last year Bannon, Conway and Mercer were supporting Lyin’ Ted until he pulled out and they all switched teams.

      • Ashamed 2 b a Fl girl says:

        At least the Kochs don’t support baby fists.

      • adastraperaspera says:

        You are spot on. Robert Mercer is a Dr. Evil. He provides just more evidence of why Citizens United is ruining our republic.

    • Mamunia says:

      If you’re not telling the truth, you are lying. She knows she’s out of the loop and doesn’t have real information, so when she books herself on TV to speak for the administration, knowing she is not informed, that is a lie.

      • Ashamed 2 b a Fl girl says:

        But, but, but she has “alternative facts.”

      • HappyMom says:

        Yeah-Joe Scarborough kind of backtracked a bit today. Yesterday he said she was out of the loop and a liar. Today he said she’s out of the loop, doesn’t know what’s going on and just goes out and makes stuff up. Yeah dude, that’s called LYING.

  4. Sarah says:

    Shut up, Kellyanne.

  5. Jazz says:

    What a scumbag! I’d like to see all of them gone – Bannon, Trump, Pence, this witch and Spicey too.

  6. littlemissnaughty says:

    I’m constantly surprised at myself for hating someone this much. It’s exhausting and cannot possibly be healthy. But she is such a disgusting human being, I want her to suffer. This is not good. Not good at all.

    I think she’ll soon find out what happens when you get into bed with f*cking Lucifer and friends. I really don’t think this will end well for her.

    • Cran says:

      I feel the same way. This administration is the only reality show I’ve ever watched and I’m addicted. I’m learning a great deal about how our government works and realize how poorly informed I’ve allowed myself to be.

      Unfortunately I have INCREDIBLE distaste for their actions and also for the hate inside me towards them. Some days I feel like there is a bottomless pit of anger inside me at the audacity of this crew and their blatant greed and power grabs. I’ve never felt this way. Every time I hear “Democrats lost and they need to get over it” or a variation I want to SCREAM!

      We’re ALL paying the price for this amateur presidency. I shudder every time 45 has contact with a foreign leader. OMG STOP WITH THE HAND SHAKING!

      • Christin says:

        Count me as another person who has realized how much I need to be learning and re-learning.

        I also had a lesson in making assumptions. My good ole boy neighbor appeared to be a textbook orange supporter, but turned out to be 100 percent anti-orange. He said that the Bush years led him to dig deeper into politics and news sources.

      • littlemissnaughty says:

        I have to say, I’ve always been a borderline conspiracy theorist. Or rather, I’ve always been suspicious of politicians, the media, etc. Everyone has an agenda and people in power don’t get there unless they – at the very least – make small deals with the devil. Everyone’s a little corrupt. I think they call that compromise. … I’m kidding. Mostly.

        But even I was swept up in the Obama hope. I didn’t want to hear about the drones. When the Bush administration had their waterboarding problem, they were just evil. But drones are so much cleaner, right? No, they’re not. And then the Fascist in Chief ran and my god, I woke up from my slumber.

        I KNOW the world is run by corporations and their main objective is profit. Everything else can be traced back to this. Money. I don’t now where my head was. This isn’t new, it’s just visible now.

      • LinaLamont says:

        @Cran
        “This administration is the only reality show I’ve ever watched and I’m addicted.”

        This is the funniest comment I’ve read in a long time. It’s so true.

  7. justsaying says:

    History will not be kind to Conway, Spicer etc.

  8. Mel says:

    Ok, @POTUS pleasure???
    Am I the only one grossed out by this??!!
    Simone Sanders said something brilliant on CNN and I wish I could find the clip on youtube!
    It was after the whole “every woman should have a boss that treats them like the President of the United States treated me today” comment.
    Sanders said “I don’t want a misogynistic p..y-grabbing boss!!” or something like that. The delivery was what made it.
    I also believe Conway was a pawn and is close to having served her purpose.
    I’m also with those who say that she is out of the loop at this point.

    • Esmom says:

      I know, the “pleasure” comment was super gross. Twitter sure noticed yesterday.

      That top photo is the stuff of my worst nightmares.

    • Londerland says:

      Not just you. That “pleasure” comment is gross and creepy. She sounds like a concubine, not a spokesperson (or whatever the hell she’s supposed to be).

      Also, it sounds like she’s deflecting blame, too. “I have no thoughts of my own. I do as my overlord commands. I am merely a vessel. (So, ummm, when they start cutting off our heads on the White House lawn, I can claim I was a gaslighted abused woman and the feminists will protect me, right? Cuz vagina? That’s how it works, right…?)”

      • Neelyo says:

        You mean she’ll follow the Fox News Ladies’ lead and try and rebrand herself as a Feminist Lite?

        She needs to be shunned when this whole fiasco explodes. Never allowed anywhere again. Though I’m sure Ted Cruz will have her back for his next run at office.

      • Cinderella says:

        I’m thinking concubine describes it in a nutshell.

    • Patricia says:

      That phrase sounds like something straight out of Medieval records about what lords would say about a King. This whole administration is a goddam pre-renaissance, pre-enlightenment throwback to tyrannical
      Monarchy. That’s what it wants to be.

    • Odette says:

      “I serve at the pleasure of the president” is a longstanding political turn of phrase.

      https://www.archives.gov/publications/prologue/2005/winter/senate-nominations.html

      • Anitas says:

        Yeah. I remember it from West Wing.

      • brincalhona says:

        In the UK, at His/Her Majesty’s pleasure means to be serving the monarch or spending some time in jail. Which one will be Kellyanne doing for Emperor Babyfists by the end of the year?

      • JudyK says:

        All that says to me is that Kellyanne can’t even be original. Uh, it’s called plagiarism, Kellyanne, but that’s the very least of your problems.

    • mrspanda says:

      I was also struck by how Kellyanne said ”every WOMAN should have a boss…..”. She knows she’s in jeopardy and she’s playing the ”woman” card directly to Trump himself. She actually has him in an interesting position – he’s clearly a misogynist and having KC as a high ranking and visible campaign director (in his mind) may have assuaged some of those misogyny outcries during the campaign. I notice also in interviews from the past few days she’s really highlighted how Trump is VERY pro women, etc. She’s using this as a bargaining chip to retain her job. I do think she’s a pawn who has served her purpose and she knows it. She was effective for him on the campaign trail (her job is essentially Satan’s PR manager so viewed in that light she was very effective, however despicable). I think she won him the election. However she is slipping these past few weeks and teaming with Trump was never a smart long term strategy.

    • Lightpurple says:

      If someone else is a accessing her phone or account to tweet love messages to white supremacists, isn’t that a security breach that should be investigated?

    • Lightpurple says:

      I understand the revulsion but that is actually standard government employment language.

    • Ashamed 2 b a Fl girl says:

      “serve at the pleasure of the POTUS” is a direct quote from the TV show “West Wing”. Only serving baby fists makes it gross and disgusting.

  9. trollontheloose says:

    they found her in a dark alley and promised her a makeup over in exchange of relaying whatever whenever. Now she speaks as Trump is her god “his message is my message” i.e I’m only an air headed instrument that has no say but take orders. If I gotta take the hits so be it because I believe in these all white men fraternity.

  10. honeybee blues says:

    She’s horrible, but DAMN! Girl has aged a decade in the last month. She needs a sandwich and a nap. It is because of her haggard look that I’m beginning to think she just might be human after all; guilty minds don’t rest.

    • Lenn says:

      This. Her right eye is starting to droop. She looks completely and utterly exhausted. To imagine she is a mother taking care and answering the questions of her kids. What does she tell them??

    • Anitas says:

      True. Spicer too looks like he’s 3 minutes away from a heart attack. Oh well. When you lie with the devil you wake up in hell.

  11. Mierke says:

    This one has really an unattractive face and annoying voice.

  12. Nancy says:

    I have no respect for someone who embraces their arrogance and total lack of the truth. She should be first to go. Declaring a massacre occurred carried out by Muslims in her alternative facts world is reason enough to be dismissed. Her utter disregard of truth in every interview by dodging questions or simply not answering yes or no questions is mind boggling. Her days of putting on her pantyhose and heels and going anywhere are over. She is being investigated for the unethical rant to go out and buy the president’s daughter’s clothes and jewelry. Funny to watch her unravel before our eyes, couldn’t happen to a nicer person.

  13. anniefannie says:

    I could watch that video w/Lauer all day long. She’s certainly lost some of her sass, hasn’t she?
    I was particularly gratified when Lauer said it would appear the administration approved of the communication? The chips are falling…

    • original kay says:

      Yes, she certainly was not the same sassy woman from last week, during the Jake Trapper interview.
      She looked like she could barely hold it together, like she was about to cry.

      • RedWeatherTiger says:

        Seeing her cry would make me so happy. <– I recognize this is not a normal response. We're not in Kansas anymore.

  14. AfricanBoy says:

    If she ever needs a new job she could play a Broadway witch, doesn’t even need makeup.

  15. EscapedConvent says:

    Kelly ConJob is vile beneath a yet undiscovered circle of hell. She may be evil, or she may be one of the dumbest people to walk on the world stage. Either way, she stands and lies to the American people with stunning sincerity. I doubt that anything is too low for her. You have to be a special kind of disconnected nut to say the things she does. CNN won’t have her on anymore, and I expect other shows to follow suit.

    She is truly delusional if she thought she could be Press Secretary. Oh, why why why can’t we get CJ Craig (Alison Janney) from the West Wing? Let’s get President Bartlet while we’re there. Let’s get that whole gang.

    • cd says:

      I vote for evil. his has been her career all along: promoting bigoted republicans into office. She’s evil.

  16. Alexandria says:

    All of them are proven psychos who have problems with women, facts, minorities and science. ALL OF THEM. She puts the K in the KKK. So weird that when you see the lineup of 45 picks you can’t find one normal one with no incriminating history and all of them superficially speaking, look evil.

  17. tracking says:

    I’m not on Twitter, but read that the White House and DT accounts unfollowed her. She’s done.

  18. Kali says:

    She’s clearly expendable. Now to get rid of the rest of them.

  19. Radley says:

    Kellyanne Conway always looks like she was just found unconscious on her office floor, given a shot of adrenaline, then was pushed out the door to do an interview without so much as running a comb through her straw-like hair.

    Girl, re-think ALL your life choices. The ugliness this Administration peddles definitley shows in everyone’s faces. She’s a soulless, amoral, liar just like her boss.

  20. nemera77 says:

    Looking back at the way SNL has spoofed and portrayed her is now SO SPOT ON.. did they have a crystal ball. People were not getting it at the beginning. But you can see they were so right. She is a media ho and loves the attention. But she knows nothing and will lie at the drop of a hat to spin the lies of his administration..

    Congress makes me SICK. They were so all over Hillary and her emails. But they are pretty silent on this. And the Republicans are trying hard to not address this mess. I saw Dan Rather equate it to Watergate. And we are just at the beginning.

  21. Digital Unicorn (aka Betti) says:

    She’s desperate – she’s on her way out and is now directly appealing to Bannon with those sort of retweets to save her ass. She has ZERO credibility and if/when she’s fired her career/business is over and there will be no protection from being investigated for breaking the rules of gov employees.

  22. Who ARE These People? says:

    Morning Joe Mika said Conway’s “not credible” anymore. WAS SHE EVER?

  23. Layla Beans says:

    Look at the top picture of her, Bannon and Miller. It’s like a trifecta of evil conjured itself into human form. She looks like she just slithered out of her coffin. If you had to buy Bannon a shade of foundation, it would be “Aryan Undead Alcoholic” and Miller looks like he’s about to consume the flesh of the person sitting next to him.

  24. jana says:

    Politics really does age people…Kellyanne’s face looks like it’s worn out two bodies already.

  25. Nina says:

    Trump administration, please tell us again how not racist you are.

  26. Ana says:

    My God, that tweet of hers was written by a robot, right?

  27. TwistBarbie says:

    So not being American I don’t know how this works, someone please help me out: It seems like every day someone else is “calling for an investigation” of something Pol Piss Pot or one of his greasy minions did. Are any of these investigations ACTUALLY going to happen? Above it talks about the U.S Ethics Office, can they do anything aside from just “calling for an investigation”?. I think the world wants to know if there’s an actual game plan or if it’s all just talk

    • Lightpurple says:

      They can’t. What should happen is Trump takes their review, assign it to whatever internal affairs, if any, his HR people have set up; they should dig deeper, using the OGE report as a starting point; recommend whether discipline is warranted based on the findings and what that discipline should be; Trump should then issue the discipline. But he has completely ignored the OGE since Election Day

  28. Harryg says:

    Just awful.

  29. Jezza says:

    She’s such a moron. A gaslighting, alternative facts spewing moron. And now bitch is out of the loop!! HAHAHAHAHA!!!

  30. Guesto says:

    On a superficial note, ignorant, self-serving bigotry clearly takes a terrible toll on a person’s skin.

  31. Lisa says:

    This is terrifying.

  32. Indiana Joanna says:

    Whoa, I just read that Conway has been banned from the major news shows (sorry to be so late to the table). She has been squeezed out of WH meetings and has no actual information to lie about. She’s furiously texting show producers (OK I now get the Fatal Attraction SNL reference) just to get in front of a camera.

  33. Deeanna says:

    Yes, this is how Watergate started. There were lies told by the White House. Then there were leaks. By patriotic government employees who saw our institutions being perverted by the Nixon White House. Such as the Nixon-compliant director of the FBI being instructed to shut down their investigation of the Watergate burglars. Such as the Nixon-compliant IRS being directed to launch audits against Nixon’s “enemies” – most of whom were journalists who were writing the truth.

    The already-in-existence House Select Intelligence Committee investigation will be the one to watch. Here is the scope of their investigation as per a press release dated 1/25/2017:

    “The scope of the Committee’s inquiry has included, and will continue to include:
    Russian cyber activity and other “active measures” directed against the U.S. and its allies;
    Counterintelligence concerns related to Russia and the 2016 U.S. election, including any intelligence regarding links between Russia and individuals associated with political campaigns;
    The United States Government response to these Russian active measures and any impact they may have on intelligence relationships and traditional alliances; and
    Possible leaks of classified information related to the Intelligence Community’s assessments of these matters.

    This issue is not about party, but about country. The Committee will continue to follow the facts wherever they may lead.”
