“While breaking bread with Carr isn’t quite on the level of “honoring” Trump’s anti-press White House, it is still appalling.”
What a nauseating guest list: Trump, Carr, Hegseth and Steven Miller. A stunning error in judgment by these journalists.
When throngs of journalists and politicos descend on the Washington Hilton’s 30,000-square-foot ballroom this Saturday to celebrate the First Amendment at the annual White House Correspondents’ Dinner, they will be rubbing elbows with some of the very officials working to erode it. CBS News, for instance, has invited Pete Hegseth and Stephen Miller as guests at the table, while the dinner itself is hosting Donald Trump as an “honoree.”
Well this tracks.
Two guests that CBS has invited to sit at its White House Correspondent’s Dinner table will be…
Stephen Miller and Pete Hegseth

"The White House correspondents' dinner is this weekend.
No, I'm not going. I'm allergic."

White House spent all of Monday waiting for a signal from Tehran that it would send its negotiating team to Islamabad.
A source with knowledge said the Iranians were stalling amid apparent pressure from the IRGC on the negotiators to hold a firmer line: no talks without an end to the U.S. blockade
A group of journalists, led by Dan Rather & Sam Donaldson, are asking the White House correspondents to use the annual dinner for something other than taking selfies & 'putting aside differences'. They're asking for a clarion call for freedom of the press and to list Trump's many attacks on freedom.
President Trump isn't inclined to extend the deadline past Wednesday evening, when it expires, according to a White House official.-WSJ
Allegedly tRump tried to grab the nuclear codes in a White House meltdown—only for the Joint Chiefs chairman to stand up and say “No.” Apparently, even the military knows this unhinged man is too dangerous for the football. How much longer can America risk it?

Former White House newsman @ronfournier.bsky.social is saddened that “dozens of [current reporters] and your corporate bosses are planning to honor Trump with his presence Saturday at the annual White House Correspondents Dinner celebrating freedom of the press."
He adds: "I don’t get it."
3rd woman White House cabinet member labor secretary Lori Chavez ousted, but Hegseth and Kash Patel remain untouched.
Hmmm...🤔

Tim Cook donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration.
He fawned over Trump and gifted him a 24-karat gold plaque (as Apple lobbied for tariff exemptions).
Apple donated to Trump’s White House ballroom.
And it removed ICE tracking apps from its stores following a demand from the DOJ.
Remember this.
Retired CIA analyst Larry Johnson has revealed that Donald Trump wanted to use nuclear codes during a White House meeting on Saturday night. General Dan Cain, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, stood up and said NO
This is the level of instability in the White House.
A UFC ‘arena’ is being built on the White House lawn for Trump's 80th birthday. It’s costing $60M — $700K just for grass
