‘By the way, I think that the more she lies, the bigger her cross gets,’ Daily Show host says of White House spokeswoman

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt was seen without her cross necklace following the mockery of Daily Show host Jon Stewart.

Leavitt appeared for her briefing on Tuesday in a navy blazer, but she had chosen to forego her signature jewelry.

On Monday night, Stewart skewered Leavitt, saying, “By the way, I think that the more she lies, the bigger her cross gets. Is that possible? It’s like some sort of weird Pinocchio cross.”

The host also noted that Leavitt is likely to be “the only one” who will be able to leave the administration “unscathed … Because I don’t think that she has any principles in there left to die.”

    Near where I live a church put up one of those 50 foot tall aluminum-siding crosses.

    1. There are still hungry and homeless people, but that’s how you choose to spend your money?

    2. If you have to put up a giant symbol to show you’re a church, you’re probably not a very good church. After all, as some guy who I’m totally blanking on his name once said, you will know a tree by the fruits it bears.
