And on Sunday Trump&#8217;s former press secretary &#8211; and current Fox News co-host of <em>Outnumbered<\/em> &#8211; Kayleigh McEnany, delivered a speech before the ultra-rightist college organization, Turning Point USA. In the course of her remarks she reminded everyone of her most notable skill: Straight-faced lying:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;And then there was the question, &#8216;Will you ever lie to us?&#8217; And I said without hesitation, &#8216;No!&#8217; And I never did.

McEnany is actually lying about her lying. And if she expects God to corroborate this blatant dishonesty, she might be in for a surprise bolt of lightening.<\/p>\n<p>McEnany began her tenure as Chief White House Liar within fifteen minutes of her first briefing. And she delivered boatloads of lies throughout her brief turn as Trump&#8217;s fourth press secretary.
