Seems the White House press corps is fed up with Biden

[T. A. Gardner]

The White House press corps held a very angry revolt today, slamming both SoS John Kerby and the muppet head Jean-what's her name...

They were told by both that Biden would not be holding even a single press conference while on his foreign trip to Ireland. That's a near unheard of move for a president. The norm is presidents want the public to know what they're doing personally.

President Joe Biden's hot-and-cold relationship with the press has been doused with freezing water.

Reporters, whose news outlets are traveling with Biden to the United Kingdom and Ireland for the 25th anniversary of the Good Friday peace agreement and other engagements, have been pushing back on the White House this week over their lack of access to the president during the trip. But the White House is withstanding the pressure to change with Biden's schedule after experiencing success, as his communications team did during his 2020 campaign, by being selective with his interviews and careful with his other public events.

The big thing is that folks are losing the ability to pretend that power is not lying to them, so the so-called journalists come off as tools who have betrayed both their mission and the people.
