Related: About this forumWHITE HOUSE DENIES ANY TIES TO UNITED STATES - (Satire)
WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)In a fiercely defiant statement on Tuesday, the White House press secretary, Sean Spicer, denied that any member of the White House staff has ever worked in any way, shape, or form for the benefit of the United States.
Angrily addressing the press corps, Spicer said that any allegations that members of the Trump Administration have ever acted in concert or collusion with the United States are unequivocally false.
At no time during the transition or afterward did any member of the Trump team have meetings, conversations, or any other contacts that furthered the interests of the United States of America, Spicer said. In the thousands of communications that took place, the United States never came up even once.
Drawing a stark contrast with the Administration of former President Barack Obama, Spicer said that many members of Obamas staff were clearly and flagrantly working for the United States government at all times.
