This is perfect. The DOJ's embarrassing snafu with disappearing redactions was the fault of Elon Musk. Musk cancelled government subscriptions to Adobe programs that would have made the redactions permanent. What a pack of fools.

That other reporters won’t speak up is even more infuriating- we all know Felon 47 is a pig, but the press failing to defend its own is reprehensible. Every single one of them should ask the exact same question until he starts behaving himself.
“You’re the most obnoxious reporter in the whole place. A terrible reporter.”
Trump again attacks a Black female reporter, ABC’s Rachel Scott, for asking about releasing the full boat strike video - which he said he would do 5 days ago
And the other journalists stay silent🐔

Elon Musk donated $277 million to Trump so he could steal the federal government’s data, dismantle the nation’s infrastructure, and stop foreign aid from going to nonwhite people. It’s a quid pro quo breathtaking in scope, corruption, and damage, & completely unprecedented in American history.
Bye bye, “DOGE”.
