no question yet about Covid, kinda of a big story
guess Biden overseeing the most successful vaccine rollout in the world isn't newsy
guess Biden passing the largest, most popular social spending bill in US history — Covid Relief — isn't newsy
when Good News for Biden is viewed as No News by the press

I’m chuckling bc press spent weeks bemoaning lack of press conference

turns out they were the ones unprepared
also let’s state the obvious: press didn’t ask abt Covid today bc GOP isn’t angry abt Covid today
GOP claims to be angry abt border today, so Biden got 7-9 border questions

not a single Covid question.

kind of stunning, and testament to Biden's success since reporters don't even see the topic as newsy
amazing
Lots add lots of border questions

It’s obvi a legit story. But GOP pushing “crisis” storyline and media embraces it

GOP now ignores Covid, so did reporters today

Secret Service flatly denies story. Politico offers no proof otherwise
Politico just looking for reason to rehash 3-yr-old Hunter family dispute so they pretend there’s a Secret Service angle
whole Secret Service angle revolves around anonymous claim, which clearly comes from a Trump fan gun store owner, who drives the whole story. (Politico left out the Trump fan part)

banning Trump from Twitter is the single most important act in American politics in last 5 yrs

Pls ignore all voices suggesting he be allowed back, after violating terms of service rules everyday
Sanders “not comfortable” w/ Trump being kicked off Twitter just bc he’s former POTUS ?

quite illogical
what are rules of conduct for if elites refuse to enforce them w/ Trump?

my latest—I catalog everting wrong w/ they awful WP piece; pressrun.media/p/washington-p…
“Laying all of the blame for the three-decade problem directly at the feet of the new, two-month-old Democratic administration, the Post article echoed every conceivable GOP talking point.”
“The Post also included no context for how Biden's new administration has been addressing border crossings while at the same dealing with the aftermath of a deadly insurrection, an impeachment trial, and passing the largest social spending bill in U.S. history.”
