There is no conceivable reason to lower flags to half staff in honor of Charlie Kirk, a rabble rouser and “media personality" who never served his country in any capacity.

This is after Trump dismissed a half dozen questions in the last week by insisting the reporter was "evil" or "bad" for daring to ask such a thing, and it's a sign that they've got absolutely nothing to say in their defense.
If we had a functioning press corps, this would be blood in the water.

asked about Trump making up a story about the unabomber, Leavitt deflects by admonishing the reporter that "with so many issues going on in the world, I'm a little bit surprised you would ask such a question"

It is surreal to be bombarded with constant op-eds about how we must finally admit that lockdowns, mask mandates and school closures didn't work.
Yes they did! COVID death rates were driven by lax policy and low compliance, mostly in red areas.

Trump officials' showings at hearings today were disasters, but it doesn't make headlines bc the media's default assumption is that Rs are clownish rascals. But if Dems didn't know what was happening at their agencies or what habeas corpus is, it'd be front page news. This is a key media asymmetry.

If you're a reporter in a White House press briefing as the spokesperson for the government asserts flatly that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a member of the MS-13 gang who's guilty of human trafficking and you sit there silently without shouting out "PROVE IT!" I'd like to invite you to go fuck yourself.

BTW as soon as he mentions VAERS — and he will — you can know he's full of shit. That's a "vaccine harm" database that is completely unmoderated, so if you die in a car crash someone can blame vaccines. Literalyl.

Gosh. If only there were an historical analogue we could study to learn about the horrors of rounding people up without due process and sending them to torture camps in other countries.

By their definition, any notable accomplishment achieved by someone who was not a straight white male -- no matter how or when it happened -- counts as "DEI" and "bias against whites."
It's racism, pure and simple. Stop pretending there's anything more complicated at work here. It's racism.
