Kayleigh McEnany is the first White House Press Secretary to hold a briefing in more than a year. She now has one more briefing under her belt than her predecessor Stephanie Grisham, who never spoke with reporters from the briefing room. During her first time at the podium, AP reporter  Jill Colvin asked, “Will you pledge to never lie to us?” This question was most likely prompted because past press secretaries Sean Spicer and Sarah Huckabee Sanders were well-known for their lies and spin.

This response instantly became mocked and fact-checked. Vox writes:

McEnany’s first lie from the White House podium came in response to a question about comments President Donald Trump made earlier in the day characterizing Tara Reade’s sexual assault allegation against Joe Biden as “far more compelling” than the accusations made against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh during his confirmation hearings. Asked to flesh out Trump’s thinking, McEnany characterized the Kavanaugh allegations as “verifiably false.”

CNN fact-checker Daniel Dale also pointed out “There was a significant misstatement — I’ll put it gently because it is her first briefing — from Kayleigh McEnany about one of these state matters.”

And then there was McEnany’s defense of Michael Flynn.
