I mean, look, I'm not a reporter, so who am I to talk?

But on a day where the president both just called a woman reporter "Piggy" and is celebrating someone who had people bone saw apart one of my colleagues, I might just be a little ready to defend my colleagues and profession.

But that's just me

🚨BREAKING: Federal prosecutors admitted Wednesday that the grand jury handling the criminal case against former FBI Director James Comey never reviewed or voted on the final indictment used to charge him — a virtually unprecedented revelation that could topple the entire case.

BREAKING: The FBI trainee that was fired for displaying a Pride Flag is SUING the government, saying his removal was illegal www.nytimes.com/2025/11/19/u...

So to get the two votes, rather than re-draft a no bill in the Comey case and present the new indictment to the grand jury, Halligan had the foreperson sign the new charges while a second grand juror WATCHED? Did Halligan just cuck justice?

Watching the Epstein survivor admit that she voted for Trump really fucked with my head.

Over a woman? WTAF?

HAYES: “2 female reporters asking obviously totally newsworthy Q’s — one gets called ‘PIGGY’ the other gets called ‘INSUBORDINATE’ because she didn’t bow and scrape to the Saudi King.”

Fox Business credulously reports that Saudi Arabia is pushing its investment into the US "to $1 trillion." The entire size of the Saudi economy is $1 trillion. How stupid are these people and/or how stupid do they think their viewers are?
