WASHINGTON (AP) — The White House is joining in on the viral debate over whether people hear the names “Laurel” or “Yanny” in a much-shared audio clip.
The White House on Thursday released a video featuring various members of the staff weighing in.

Senior adviser Ivanka Trump says, “So clearly Laurel.” Strategic-communications director Mercedes Schlapp says, “Yanny’s the winner, Laurel’s the loser.”
White House counselor Kellyanne Conway pokes fun at her endless willingness to spin and bend the truth for the president, saying, “It’s Laurel. But I could deflect and divert to Yanny if you need me to.”
Vice President Mike Pence wants to know: “Who’s Yanny?”
The video ends with President Donald Trump deadpanning, “I hear covfefe” — a reference to a botched tweet he wrote last year that was never explained.
I saw a vid on Twitter this morning where somebody had inserted Mueller into every scene. Unfortunately, I can’t find it now.
“We’re criminals and traitors, but at least we pretend to have what you rubes call a sense of humor.”
The stench of desperation.
One guy on Twitter said:
“Jesus Christ, it’s the cast of ‘The Hills Have Eyes’.”
Give that man the Internet!
Ivanka Trump’s new cologne fragrance. With that intoxicating aroma of bacon fat and flop sweat.
