Kathy Griffin is sick of the bullshit!
Following the backlash and fallout from her graphic, controversial Donald Trump photo shoot, the comedienne is taking to the media about the “bullying” she has endured from POTUS’s family.

In her first press conference since apologizing on social media, the 56-year-old, alongside her attorney Lisa Bloom, took to the podium to let Drumpf know that he “picked the wrong red head” to mess with.
In fact, the actress explained all she was doing through her project was turning Trump’s nasty “blood coming out of her eyes, blood coming out of wherever” comment about Megyn Kelly during the campaign on its head.
Instead, the comedian claims she’s been hit with a Secret Service investigation, death threats, and bullying from the First Family.

Basically, Kathy understands she made a huge mistake, but will not stop teasing the President because that’s her first amendment right.
Thoughts???
