Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Tuesday, August 25, 2026

Natalie Harp has been in the news so much that I assumed she must have committed a crime, done something unethical or botched her job as one of President Donald Trump's aides so badly that he fired her. I'm as disappointed as you are to learn none of the above is true (at least not yet). Nevertheless, Harp has dominated news coverage

"she must have committed a crime, done something unethical or botched her job"

^
It figures that "lying about a life-saving medical intervention" isn't unethical to Republicans:

"By 2017, Harp had become vocally critical of healthcare in the United States after she began suffering from health issues, particularly chronic pain and complications incurred by a medical error involving intravenous therapy for stage II bone cancer.[13] Harp made a post on LinkedIn on June 12, 2019[14] titled "I'm Living Proof " the Party of Healthcare is Trump's" that resulted in an invitation to appear on Fox News.[15] Two days later,[14] in that appearance, she praised Trump for signing into law a federal right-to-try law that she said allowed her to access experimental treatments which she credited with saving her life.[4] However, The Washington Post cast doubt on Harp's story, citing medical experts who said that the treatment in question was already approved for off-label use and reporting that she had already made public comments about receiving the new treatment two months before the law was signed.[13]" --wikipedia

You're lying about her lying ... which is worse?

She wasn't "lying about a life-saving medical intervention", she lied about how she got access to it.

Ms. Hart hands Trump racist propaganda which the then amplifies.

She also helps Trump believe that he's a god.

She can resign, go away, and find honest work.

Melania will be relieved.

Harp makes $150k a year in taxpayer dollars working on the public roll at the White House.
That she appears to be a nutter is definitely the public's business.

Why do they need to "make a story" out of her? She was on Trump's Catering Cart. Marco Rubio and Scott Bessent were on the target plane.

So was Karoline Leavitt...who quit the next day. Not a story in your world???

Because Jeff kisses Pedo Ass, he is too stupid to even research anything.

What's the issue with Natalie Harp:

Natalie Harp has full access to the President and White House. She is exposed to the most classified information available, more so than even some top Trump White House officials. She is often the one that relays information to the President.

Natalie Harp REFUSED to seek even routine security clearance for over a year.

Recently she finally agreed to submit the forms to get the basic security clearance.

She does NOT have top level security clearance despite have access to top level classified information.

But she's a wet nurse for Diaper Don the Orange Pedophile to feed him unvetted information and nice news stories about him.

Pedo Jeff and the Author are too stupid to even do basic level research because their tongues are apparently too far up Trump's ass to see anything else.

Regarding the DSA, I'd be fine voting for one. They're just the tiny group in the corner, with almost zero power. They can keep "The Squad" company.

Here's an idea that could create some healthy discussion.

What specific DSA platform do you disagree with. I'm sure you could say "all of them" and end the discussion. But you could pick something that you actually oppose and we could discuss it. Even if we end up disagreeing, I'd be open to the conversation.

Americans are free to choose the type of beer or malted beverage they wish to imbibe.

Coriolanus prefers a Hefeweizen, but we are all free to like or dislike malt beverages in America.
