must be nappy time...

The White House Correspondents’ Association has filed a formal complaint against Joe Biden after his aides refused to let him take any questions during his meeting in the Oval Office with UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson.

Prime Minister Johnson took three questions from the travelling press corps, but Biden’s handlers stepped in to shoo reporters away before they could ask Biden any questions.

The cacophonous shouting began while Johnson was still in mid sentence answering a reporter’s question, and while Biden appeared to be dozing off.

CBS News pointed out that it was not the usual protocol for only one side of a bilateral meeting at the White House to have to answer questions.

"CBS News'
@EdOkeefe
reports that during Pres. Biden's bilateral meeting with British PM Boris Johnson, U.S. press questions about the southern border were shouted down by White House aides. The president's answer was undecipherable."

maybe the vast right wing conspiracy reporter that was there is lying I don't but is't pretty funny and not surprising


CBS reporter Ed O’Keefe said that “Johnson took 3 questions. White House aides shouted down U.S. attempts to ask questions. I asked Biden about southern border and we couldn’t decipher what he said.”

he said " oh go you know the thing....c'mon man! "

the entire white house press corps, almost all of which is way left leaning, filed a complaint.

Nothing to see there, right? Nothing to see there, itching to see in his polling numbers, it’s all right wing catnip.

correct. that’s a cbs reporter, not fox news.

If O’Keefe isn’t careful, Biden might sick his old pal Corn Pop after him.

Ask an Indian, they think its absurd that a lot of Americans saw Tulsi Gabbard as some sort of progressive anti-war candidate?

She literally supports the BJP in India and blatant, brain-dead Islamophobia flows in her blood. She's dangerous.

Won't happen, at least not until they see how things shake out after mid terms, because then they would lose the tie breaker vote in the senate.

Last time i checked, Indians don’t decide presidential elections by themselves. So i’ll pass on asking your hand-picked Indian, thanks.

I’ll do that, right after you ask an Afghani who stuck his neck out to help America but is now being hunted by the Taliban, what he thinks of Biden’s withdrawal. Or, right after you ask the family of someone murdered by an illegal, what he thinks of Biden’s border policy.

Fair enough? You go first and report back to us what they say.

Jim as if on cue forgets the treatment of of the last press corps

but is upset and sticking up for the current One ? because they only got 2 questions out of Biden Yet Every presidential administration has a combative relationship with the White House press corps, but hea why should facts matter

But when Trump White House goes 300+ days without a press briefing or
“Trump wants people to believe that the reporters in that room are the opposition party.

here’s the difference between us. I’ll
say now, as i said back then, Trumps treatment of the media was often embarrassing and inappropriate.

I can criticize trump when he deserves it. Can you do the same with Biden?

Nope. Instead, you attack the reporters who complained. Biden is the victim in your mind.

yet guy act as if i’m the one with no principles, when you’re the one with opposite standards depending on the party of the president. And every single person here, sees it, because it’s stupidly obvious.

Have fun making that wrong.

All the liberal reporters feel Biden’s is being inappropriate. You’re silent as we all knew you’d be.

Afghani's don't have opinions, they're a currency.

Maybe you could ask one of the 50,000 Afghans killed in the conflict in Afghanistan, you think all Afghans are unhappy to see us gone?
Are the people who worked with us now the Tories of Afghanistan?
We have pulled more than 130,000 people out of Afghanistan, are you willing to have them in your town?

And then you could ask a Kurd killed by a Turk after Trump ran out on them after the Kurds fought for us against ISIS. What did the Trump corp get for doing that?

The 10,000 people killed this year by gun violence were not the result of illegal immigration. In Texas, US-born citizens are over 2 times more likely to be arrested for violent crimes, 2.5 times more likely to be arrested for drug crimes, and over 4 times more likely to be arrested for property crimes than illegal immigrants.

As usual you watch and have your mind made up for you.

you accuse me if having double standards, i irrefutably prove to you i don’t. then you irrefutably prove you do have double standards, then act as if it’s me.

i didn’t say the sky was falling. i said even liberal
reporters are complaining now.

What’s falling, is his approval ratings, especially among independents. Before you say “ but trumps polling was worse”, i remind you that trump got creamed at re election.

“show me one outrage post”.

i just made a post criticizing trump, today. i’m sorry if you can’t read.

“another example of making comparisons where no such comparison exists.”

Are you ok in the head, seriously? YOU are the one who brought trumps media relationship into this, not me. Whats wrong with you!

Jim: even the liberal
media is saying Biden is being uncooperative.

WDMSO: you never complained when trump did it.

Jim: i’ll do it now, trump treated the media inappropriately

WDMSO: show me where you criticized trump. also, you’re comparing things that arent the same.

See how amazingly stupid that sounds?

they can’t just say “if everyone in the liberal media filed a complaint, there was probably a legitimate gripe.”

They arent capable of it.

president Pudding Brain says horses are now inherently racist, because riding them
involves ropes, so he’s banning border agents from being on horses.

That should solve all our problems there.

that really illustrates the difference between you and me.

i look at videos of thousands of migrants illegally crossing in a line for hours, setting up camp under a bridge in our side,,and I think my god that open border is begging for trouble.

you see a few agents on horses trying to control people coming illegally into our country, and your side goes right o the barbaric racist “they’re whipping them” hysteria.

did you see Jen Psaki “explain” why we need proof of vaccines but illegals don’t? she says “they don’t plan to be here that long.”

you buy that? they came here just to have lunch?

or is she lying through her teeth, because there is no honest answer that doesn’t make the administration look awful?

They said they were "temporarily" suspending the use of horses at that location. I would imagine horses are very effective in some terrain but this doesn't look to be it. I didn't think they were whipping immigrants but some of photos did look really bad. Also, we know the really racist horses are in El Paso.

Most of the vaccines require two doses, I think we're not expecting many of them to be around for a second shot in three weeks.
