The California governor described White House reporters as ‘sycophants’
California Governor Gavin Newsom criticized the media for what he described as overly deferential coverage of Donald Trump, characterizing reporters in Oval Office press briefings as “sycophants.”
The Democratic governor — widely seen as a potential contender for the 2028 presidential race — made the remarks during a Sunday interview with progressive commentator Jack Cocchiarella.
Cocchiarella pressed Newsom on what he framed as “hesitancy” within the White House press corps to scrutinize certain subjects: namely, the 80-year-old president’s health.
“You see these press conferences in the Oval Office,” the governor replied. “You maybe have one or two reasonable reporters. They ask a question; there’s no chance for a follow-up. And then it’s seven sycophants from news outlets.”



So just like last time, not gonna vote if they aren’t perfect?
Newsom is just as much of a fascist as the orange pedophile
Yeah they will throw us under the buss again.
Gee, I wonder why the fascists are in office.
Because the DNC is completely incapable of fielding a candidate that can clear even the miniscule bar set by the Republicans.
Chuck Schumer never endorsed Mamdani, not even after he was the official Democratic nominee, running against Andrew Cuomo. Shit like that is why the fascists are in office.
The people running the purity tests for their purity ponies sure did not help…
Why’d you post a gif of Harris when she lost?
because the moderates are too determined to screw over the progressives.
Then support and vote for the progressives you want in the primaries, but once it gets to the general, whining “I wish it was so-and-so instead” does nothing.
Maybe, if you’re a Democrat®
It’s what the GOP and Russia wants you to do
Is enthusiastic support for genocide “not perfect” to you?

That is one hell of a conclusion you jumped to. If you actually read my post you would see I am AGAINST inaction. Go karma rage bait elsewhere. This shit doesn’t contribute to the conversation.
Inaction would be better since your action gets republicans elected.
