August 2023: Democrat Press Secretary & self-identified DEI hire Karine Jean-Pierre establishes “new rules” that effectively revokes the White House press passes of 440+ reporters.
January 2025: Republican Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has opened up White House press passes to all reporters, and even expanded them to include members of new media.
Nice to see press passes handed back to those who had them taken away by the Democrats.
But beyond that it would have been nice to see more of a seating shakeup. One seat upfront for new media is nice, but why not rotate legacy media to the back once in a while?
Legacy media’s only job is to fluff Democrats and attack Republicans by any means necessary.
It appears that these dopes from the legacy media will not even be close to a match for the new Press Secretary, so I like having them up front where everyone can see them get obliterated.
Isn’t a Free Press essential to the American “Democracy”? So, tell me again WHO is destroying “Democracy” in America?
// On the car radio, I heard this new ditz proclaiming “The president had the army corps of engineers turn the water back on in California “ //
