    The reporter did not ask if the WH played a role, he asked if the administration had a response.

    Why are they still alive in the first place??

    I believe the Commander in Chief “ implies a roll. In fact maybe even the leader of it 😂😂😂
  • @hoklau1936
    Plea deal should only be offered if the families of victims approve it. If this set of lawyers are not confident in winning the case then they should quit and let others do their job for them. Offering a plea deal because they can't do their job is malpractice
  • @doloresabernathy9809
    Who did decide to agree to the plea deal? Surely it was an presidential appointee.
  • @freedomofreligion3248
    Is this Admin. Official whining about "the NASTY manner in which this questions were ASKED??" Did this Admin. Official SAY, "Hello, how ARE you?" first?????

    One of the people we released was a convicted MURDERER. This is an extremely crappy deal.

    I'm sorry, I'm dark humored but... yeah, I'd say that the negotiations aren't exactly going well when the lead negotiator wound up dead... definitely a bit of a set-back, but we're confident we can still reach a deal!
