Mr. President, checks & balances are central to our democracy. Threats against the House for doing its job—performing oversight & ensuring a transparent & accountable government—belie your call for bipartisanship.
Simply put the press is allowed to ask questions & pursue the truth. The president's blatant disrespect & combativeness towards the media is not to defend the country, but to protect himself.
Shift in House should help check White House overreach & offer bipartisan opportunities on infrastructure, immigration, jobs & health care—despite President’s defiant, hostile press conference performance.
