They fawned and tiptoed around Sarah and Kayleigh, letting them lie with impunity, but 24 hours in, they're all over Jen because Biden hasn't solved all of the country's FIVE five-alarm fires yet.

Fishing for information too about that note from tRump to President Biden (oh, sounds good) . I wish they would grow up.

(4,673 posts)what they have always done the many decades Ive watched. Any fawning last admin was a matter of who they were willing to call on. CNN, PBS, etc didnt fawn. OAN, FOX ... they did.

(11,949 posts)And I think many here are forgetting the near past. They were hard on trumps spokesperson. To the point that the first tried to ban the more aggressive ones, then stopped calling on them and then just stopped having them. They would make statements
on occasion, call on a few friendly press outlets, then it was over.
Its been so long since we have had real press briefings we forgot what they should be.
