BLAME THE PRESS

Conway Says She Has Secret Service Protection After Threats

Says she's received mail with suspicious white powder.

President Donald Trump’s top adviser Kellyanne Conway says she’s received mail with suspicious white powder and has been forced to get Secret Service protection. “Because of what the press is doing now to me, I have Secret Service protection,” she told Sean Hannity on Monday night. “We have packages delivered to my house with white substances. That is a shame,” she said. Conway went on to blame the threats on the media’s coverage of Trump in recent days, bringing up an erroneous report about a bust of Martin Luther King Jr. that has already been corrected. After a reporter falsely tweeted that the new White House had removed the bust, he quickly corrected his report and apologized for the mistake, though Trump’s team continues to bring the incident up. Conway on Monday demanded that the reporter apologize to Trump over the incident.
