Watters then asked Leavitt, who earns a salary of $195,200, whether it was “laziness” and suggested that liberal professors and teachers were to blame for Gen Z’s work ethic.

“It’s laziness and it’s liberal indoctrination,” Leavitt replied, before praising parents who had turned to homeschooling and Christian schools.

Watters then suggested forcing young people to join the Army “if they misbehave.”

“Or send them to Cuba, send them to Iran,” Leavitt said gleefully. “They’ll wanna come back real quick.”

No paywall, so you can read more about what those two idiots said. Idiots who aren't qualified to be opining on anything.

1. Donald, Eric, and Barron first

[delisen]

2. Leavitt has been promised a federal pardon for her law breaking

She is projecting and deflecting, lying and threatening. Her psychological toolkit doesn’t contain much else besides these 4 well worn tools.

3. ""Or send them to Cuba"

Trump Cult members will of course claim that both are ‘just kidding.’

4. Don't We Have Gulag Camps Yet?

Joining the military is supposed to be an honor, not a punishment.

But surely we're far enough into "The Program" to have forced labor camps. What's the point of buying Greenland?

5. Apologies in advance to any exceptions

But I haven't met a home schooled Christian yet who is qualified for any professional jobs with public responsibilities.

6. Believe them when they tell you what they are. Take them seriously.

They're going to vote, so you damn well better vote too.

7. she's a piglet.....

doesn't qualify for PIG status yet like her boss and his insane clown posse but she's trying.

[yardwork]

8. Leavitt is evil.

[waterwatcher123]

9. So, getting up and lying on a daily basis is a real job (at least according to these two buffoons)?

[patphil]

10. Translation: Keep your head down, and your moiuth shut. Keep working that dead end low paying job and you'll be fine.

Further translation:
You should be grateful for the scraps that fall from our table; do what we order you to do, or you'll be punished.

11. So Levitt who paid for your health care recently............to have a baby............boomers, my dad' generation......

Millennials, Gen Z's .............yeah they/we are just lazy........and then, did you tell everyone that you got to ride on plane that was given to your boss by a foreign government in violation of the Emolument Clause, did it give you a warm fuzzy feeling that the above taxpayers paid for that plane in some shape and form through our taxes without our permission or by laws........you know the word grifting ............right ................... while that Watters dude has done exactly what ...........defamed Gavin Newsome and sexual harassed a sitting Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez..........racism.............. misogyny and harassment to woman and media groups, unethical conduct when he was having an affair.............

[GiqueCee]

12. Ummm...

... what is Pox News but Kkkonservative indoctrination? Those two are imbeciles, which says nothing good about the judgment or character of anyone that listens to them.
Sweet Christ on a pogo stick, I am SO sick of these lying, soulless swine! (Apologies to Sus Domesticus everywhere for the insulting comparison)

[Karasu]

13. Fascist insanity. You want to FORCE people's kids into the Army or send them to countries you hate just because you

don't like their "work ethic?" And this lunatic party still thinks they're the party of personal freedom?

Fascists never, ever joke. They verbally masturbate.

They're putting this out there because they get off to the thought of actually doing this.

[twodogsbarking]

14. So the Army is being used as punishment?

For being not rich?

[riversedge]

15. "Pay attention to @PressSec here Gen Z ... she (gross Leavitt) just said you're lazy and that's why you can't afford gas

“Pay attention to @PressSec here Gen Z … she (gross Leavitt) just said you’re lazy and that’s why you can’t afford gas, groceries, rent, healthcare, and utilities,” said another. “Vote accordingly in November!”

16. "In January 2025, Leavitt disclosed in 17 amended campaign filings $326,370 in unpaid campaign debts..."

In 2022, Leavitt faced a Federal Election Commission complaint from End Citizens United alleging that her campaign and treasurer had illegally accepted campaign donations over the legal limit and had never repaid her donors. In January 2025, Leavitt disclosed in 17 amended campaign filings $326,370 in unpaid campaign debts she had failed to disclose for several years. Roughly $200,000 of the debt had been composed of illicit campaign donations made in excess of campaign finance limits she had never paid back, in violation of campaign finance laws.[29]

She's a lawbreaker and moocher. She doesn't appear to have held a productive job in her life.
