You'd think by now, the mainstream media would understand that if they're going to challenge members of the Trump administration, especially on facts and numbers, they better bring their A-Game.
Although, considering this is Margaret Brennan we're talking about, this might be her A-Game, which if so, is just sad.
Check out this back and froth between Brennan and Kristi Noem:
.@Sec_Noem: 70% of the illegals detained by ICE have been convicted of or charged with a crime.

Margaret Brennan: "It's not 70%."@Sec_Noem: "It absolutely is."
Is Margaret Brennan stupid or does she just really hate facts? pic.twitter.com/bwDWFbYoSy
But wait, there's more!
There's always more.
Brennan thought she would doxx the ICE agent who shot Renee Good just ONE more time for good measure.
Nu-uh.

"Don't say his name, for heaven's sake, we shouldn't keep DOXXING law enforcement! He got attacked with a car, and…
Post continues:
... and then people have attacked his family! They are in jeopardy!"
Brennan is awful and yet she is likely in the best place for a person of her mental and skill level.
