She admitted to the Daily Mail that the constant upheaval has made her emotionally guarded, sharing that canceled plans — including three separate summer mini-vacations — have left her with “PTSD” about setting up experiences with her husband and her son.

Honestly, I have PTSD about making plans, so I just don’t,” Leavitt said. ‘We just roll with it. If there’s a night where I happen to become free, then we take full advantage of that as a family.”

But she’s honest about the limits, summing it up, “But that’s part of the job, and it’s what makes it fun and challenging and keeps every day new. And it’s, you know, it’s temporary. We’re one year down. We got three to go.”

Assuming there really are only 3 to go, she'll still be younger than I am now when she finishes, and she's clearly in a much better place financially. Who gives a fuck?

I don't have kids because I work 5 13-hour shifts a week and I don't think it'd be responsible to bring a child into that when I can't be there to help raise them (nevermind the health issues I'm risking from sleep deprivation already, I don't need a newborn on top of that). My partner also works full time, and even then we're barely making enough to get by. But hey, let's have a story about how one of the worst people in the world had to cancel her 3 holidays this year.

In the end, Leavitt’s reality reads like a cautionary tale for anyone thinking proximity to power comes cheap. Between the canceled trips, the social media taunts, the age-gap commentary, and the nonstop demands of defending Trump, she’s living the full cost of the job — as she put it, just “part of the job.”

So... she isn't even complaining? This writer is just sad that Leavitt's life must be tough because of all of these things she chose to do? Thank you for wasting everybody's time, Atlanta Black Star. I hope your engagement-bait is fulfilling.

Oh

Fully agree that this is a pointless article, but I wouldn’t trade with her even for the money (and my husband and I are an apprentice and a student, so it’s not like we’re financially stable). Even aside from the war crimes prosecution that I dearly hope is coming, a job that demanding with a baby and a spouse more than double your age sounds awful. Plus, everyone fucking hates her. She deserves every bit of it, but I don’t fucking want it.

Dont forget the war crimes trials if they can't steal or cancel the midterms (they will do one or the other)

What a problem to have! It's not that long since we have seen pictures of their military standing in line around the block waiting for food because paychecks where held back in the shutdown.

Another didn’t buy her explanation at all, writing, “Lying Leavitt is at it again. Lying about where her PTSD comes from. And we know it’s not from dinner plans.” A third person reminded her of the age gap. “Her husband will be 70 when the kid is 10???? This is so grosssss!!! Creepy.”

Lol

I get the impression that the judgemental quotes about her consensual marriage were from people that aren't as disapproving of her being the mouthpiece for a fascist.

Poor Propaganda Barbie. I imagine Joseph Goebbels still took off some time to torture small animals with his family when he could. You should enjoy your time with them when they're young and impressionable, Karen.

Klaus Barbie. It was a real person.

Hope we can throw her in prison with the rest when this is over.

Definition of shithole is a country that legally gives women 14 days to return to wok after a birth.

"Why aren't people reproducing???"

Gee, this may have something to do with it, along with a lengthy list of other things.

[–] TheJesusaurus@piefed.ca 16 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

Wow she took 3 days off? What a selfish person her work needs her

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 4 points 4 weeks ago

It's not really work when you do what you love.

[–] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 3 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

For sake of consistency her position clearly isn't needed. As they proved during the shut down schools kept going, when she took 3 days off everything kept going. About time we lay her off

[–] theneverfox@pawb.social 3 points 4 weeks ago

Nah, let's keep her on. She's only effective when she's on the offensive... I enjoy watching her stutter and sputter on the defensive, and she's going to be playing defense for the rest of her career

[–] hanrahan@piefed.social 6 points 3 weeks ago

So why an aetuxke about an entitled white bitch working long hours to support her paedophile, rapist, crimanl boss ? Why not some.broke ass'd homless guy living under a bridge suffering actual PTSD

You heard it from me first: She has been having an affair with Stephen Miller. She’s adopted all of his mannerisms and speech patterns.

Oh my god. That dumb bitch did procreate?
