In previously unreported remarks, the White House press secretary #KarolineLeavitt told CBS News that #Trump would “sue” the news outlet if it did not air an interview unedited.
“He said, ‘Make sure you guys don’t cut the tape, make sure the interview is out in full,’” Leavitt said in an even tone, according to a recording of the exchange obtained by The NYT.
“Yeah, we’re doing it, yeah,” Dokoupil responded.
Leavitt replied: “He said, ‘If it’s not out in full, we’ll sue your ass off.’”
A federal officer shot & killed a person in #Minneapolis on Wednesday during an #immigration “enforcement” operation, #DHS said. The #shooting came as the #Trump admin intensified a crackdown on “illegal immigration” in #Minnesota.

Chief O’Hara said the #FBI & the #Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension had taken control of the #crime scene. He said an investigation would take place, but it was unclear which agency would investigate—or whether both would. [pray it’s not the FBI]
