I did not have high expectations for a Biden administration but was joyful simply for competence. So far, though, they have exceeded my expectations. The new press secretary is making it clear that there is a new sheriff in town.

Some of the reporters at those briefings clearly need to get accustomed to the idea of having to deal with a competent press secretary.

I see that Press Secretary Psaki went to the CJ Cregg school of Press Secretarying.

lol somebody mad

The cover artwork, by Time artist Tim O’Brien, shows Biden looking out of the Oval Office window onto a country on fire, while the room’s interior is graffitied and left in ruins by former President Donald Trump.

The cover was, of course, a figurative illustration.

Technically not wrong, an appalled Faulkner railed against the magazine cover, pointing out that the “picture isn’t real” and wondering how the “mainstream media” got away with such a blatant lie.

“If you saw that on the opposite with a conservative president and it was, you know, all over the place, mainstream media would be on fire about it. But with Joe Biden it’s okay to do this?” Harris exclaimed.

“That’s not real. That picture isn’t real! I thought we were a nation who cared about the facts.”

Former Barack Obama aide Johana Maska, on Fox News for the segment, replied by noting that the picture is “a depiction,” but agreed that the nation should stay focused eon the facts.

“Let’s see if others in the mainstream media have the gumption to call out the fact that that’s just a complete lie,” Faulkner concluded.
Well yeah it's not real. It's a painting, dude.

As for his assertion that "mainstream media would be on fire" if a Democrat president was depicted leaving the Oval Office in such a state, I offer a counterpoint:

So what, Biden has a 7000 dollar watch.
I don't think a poor person will become president of the US anytime soon.

If I slapped Nigel in the face, will anyone mind?
I see "Farage'", but think "this is what happens when the fairy from Pinocchio encounters a test dummy for face-slapping machines".
