BREAKING: BRAVO! The New York Times announces it will NOT publish or distribute ANY photos from the White House pool today in protest of Trump's assault on free speech.
This fight has spiraled totally out of control for Donnie...
“The New York Times will not publish or distribute any images taken as part of the White House still photography pool today, in conjunction with the other members of that pool and in a show of support for the news organizations being unfairly targeted by the president’s barring of journalists from the White House," New York Times spokesperson Charlie Stadtlander stated.
"We remain committed to covering the president’s travel to New York City today. Americans deserve a free and independent media covering their government without intimidation, as well as comprehensive coverage of newsworthy events," he added.
The Washington Post released a similar statement—
“The Washington Post will not publish any photographs of today’s presidential events — including Trump’s departure from the White House and his events at the United Nations in New York — until midnight Eastern Time, joining a collective effort with photographers in other newsrooms covering the White House in a show of support of the banned outlets," said Post spokesperson Olivia Petersen.
These new announcements come after major news outlets including CBS News, ABC News, CNN, Fox News, and NBC News suspended press pool coverage of Trump over his decision last Friday to ban CNN, Politico, and MS NOW from the White House over their alleged "fake news" stories. That collective pushback resulted in a particularly embarrassing incident for Trump, because there was no audio for his big White House helipad ribbon cutting ceremony today.
With an even bigger week ahead as the United Nations convene in New York, Trump is going to be feeling the burn from his authoritarian power grab. He's drunk with his own power and in obvious cognitive decline, which is why he thought that he could shred the First Amendment without consequence. Thankfully, the media is fighting back — and winning bigly.

En EEUU, un racista contrató a unos trabajadores latinos para que le cercaran su patio con costosas vallas de madera... pero cuando terminaron el trabajo, llamó a ICE para que les deportaran y ahorrarse pagarles.
Sin embargo, no salió como el racista esperaba, los trabajadores eran legales, volvieron a su casa y le arrancaron valla por valla de madera en su cara, deshaciendo el trabajo. Puro karma.
In 1960, they stoked fear about John F. Kennedy because he was Catholic.
In 2008, they stoked fear about Barack Obama because he was Black.
In 2026, they are stoking fear about Dr. Abdul El-Sayed because he is Muslim.
Enough! We must end all forms of bigotry in America.
Call me crazy, but it seems a little excessive for tax payers to cover the cost for tRump to fly 24 vehicles,19 motorcycles, and 1 Natalie Harp to Ireland for a 48 hour visit so he can attend a golf tournament while voters are unable to afford health-care, food, gas, utilities, or rent.
@CalltoActivism Yea thats right you dumb looking fuck, sit there with that stupid look on your face and look at the fact you have zero humanity and people do think you're a joke
Seeing him being humiliated like this is truly what he deserves and FINALLY 🗣
🚨HOLY SHIT: The Getty journalist who captured the moment Trump did NOTHING as his guest fainted at the White House just won an award for the image.
Trump looks completely flustered. This has to be one of the most humiliating nights of his presidency.
🚨OMG: Wolf Blitzer just presented the Wall Street Journal an award for uncovering Trump’s ties to Epstein and reveals Trump doxxed the journalist’s home address in his lawsuit causing her to move.
Trump is sitting humiliated as Karoline Leavitt comforts him. This is unreal.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) said Thursday that Sen. Mitch McConnell's (R-KY) five-week absence from Congress and lack of response to Gov. Andy Beshear's (D-KY) request for an update on his health "conveys a very disturbing inability to fulfill his duties."
"I understand that people have a right to medical privacy to deal with their issues, but we do not have the right to disappear from our jobs without explanation," she said. "I don't think any American has ever experienced the ability to just leave your job for over a month with no explanation to your employer."
@BythePeople18 And the Dems have to stop with playing nice and stop reaching across the aisle to make friends. It's cut throat now and they have to get with the program.
Lindsey Graham died Friday & his sister has already been sworn in. Remember when Mike Johnson refused to seat Adelita Grijalva for 50 days after she was elected? That is what we are fighting for in the midterms, a return to democracy & fairness and to remove fascist Republicans.
BREAKING: HELL NO! The New York City Bar Association boldly OPPOSES Todd Blanche's nomination to be Attorney General, calling him "unfit" for the office.
This is a massive blow to MAGA...
“Mr. Blanche has taken actions that we believe make him unfit to lead an ethical and independent department of justice that is essential to our nation’s democracy," read a letter sent by the Bar Association to Senators Chuck Grassley and Dick Durbin, the ranking members of the Judiciary Committee.
"We urge the Committee to reject the nomination of Mr. Blanche," the letter continued. "Mr. Blanche’s record—particularly the actions he has undertaken as Deputy Attorney General and Acting Attorney General—conclusively demonstrates his lack of commitment to the integrity, professionalism and independence that the Senate should require and the American people should expect of the highest law enforcement official in the land."
They went on to slam Blanche for failing to meet the standard of "professional excellence and unquestionable ethical standards that assure his commitment to justice and loyalty to the United States Constitution" and stated that his "primary loyalty" is to Trump and not the Constitution or the "rule of law."
They specifically cited his role as Trump's personal attorney during his felony trial as a cause for concern, adding that he continues to prioritize his boss's "personal interests" above all else.
"As a result, his actions have been detrimental to the Department of Justice and the rule of law. Specifically, Mr. Blanche has compromised the integrity and independence of the Department he has been nominated to lead," the letter asserted.
The Bar Association then listed some specific concerns, stating that Blanche has:
I. Abused the Department’s prosecutorial power through politically motivated prosecutions and investigations;
II. Failed to respect the Constitutional rights of citizens and all other people present in the United States protesting widespread abuses by ICE and other customs officers;
III. Placed loyalty to President Trump over commitment to the rule of law in the Epstein investigation and the “settlement” of Trump v. I.R.S.;
IV. Undermined the independence and integrity of the Department of Justice by, among other things, terminating or reassigning lawyers and others who participated in January 6 investigations or otherwise acted in a manner perceived to be disloyal to Mr. Trump; and;
V. Undermined public trust in the Department of Justice and the rule of law through conduct contrary to the Rules of Professional Conduct applicable to Mr. Blanche and the Department’s own Justice Manual.
"Under normal circumstances, each of these improper actions by Mr. Blanche as Deputy Attorney General and Acting Attorney General would be grounds for disqualifying him from serving as Attorney General," the letter added. "Together, they demonstrate that, whatever his prior experience or formal credentials, Mr. Blanche is unfit to lead the U.S. Department of Justice."
We couldn't agree more. Todd Blanche is an immoral hatchet man for an even more immoral President. He will do whatever Trump orders him to do, regardless of how criminal it is or how much damage it inflicts on our democracy.
The simple truth is that anyone who would willingly serve a demented, murderous pedophile like Donald Trump is unfit to hold office. Todd Blanche is no different. The Senate must reject his nomination.
Please ❤️ and share if you think that Blanche needs to be investigated!
🚨BOMBSHELL: Sen. Cory Booker says Todd Blanche LIED while under oath after claiming he couldn’t meet with Epstein survivors.
“He can meet with Ghislaine Maxwell… but not victims.”
Todd Blanche should be tried for perjury. Not confirmed as AG.
