White House Correspondents:
Masked Masqueraders in the Rose Garden



White House Correspondents: Masked Masqueraders in the Rose GardenWhite House Correspondent ‘journalists’— dead against President Donald Trump reopening America for business—sat in the Rose Garden wearing masks during yesterday’s Coronavirus Task Force briefing. In other words, these press card-carrying, social-distanced bullies wore face masks—outside—in which many of us would call the fresh air. These sanctimonious scribes, down to the last one, including self-aggrandizing John Roberts of Fox News—who only remained mask-less until the president took to the podium—best define what should be called, ’Masked Masqueraders in the White House Rose Garden’.

The masked masqueraders don’t want America sent back to work because they don’t recognize what real work is any more

It was a collective display of Hypocrisy 101, given that anyone who shows up unannounced in their ‘news room’, or in an other newsroom for that matter, won’t find reporters wearing masks. Nor will they ever until the day masks come fitted with little holes to accommodate the PAPER straws from which they can sip their omnipresent lattés. The masked masqueraders don’t want America sent back to work because they don’t recognize what real work is any more. Rather than getting off their duffs and going out searching for real news, they sit around and Christopher Steele-like make up the “news”—the more salacious and farfetched the better. They were at their transparent best in the Rose Garden yesterday filling in for Dr. Anthony Fauci in much the same way that Joe Biden is filling in for whichever horror the Obama-controlled DNC will foist upon the electorate as their chosen Democrat presidential nominee. Shouldn’t we all have seen this coming?: “Dr. Anthony Fauci emailed New York Times reporter Sheryl Gay Stolberg Monday night with a preview of his message for a Senate hearing on Tuesday in which he warns of “needless suffering and death” if the country opens “prematurely” from the COVID-19 Chinese coronavirus lockdowns.” (Gateway Pundit, May 12, 2020)

Meanwhile back at the thorny Rose Garden came trouble in paradise

And the shy doctor’s coming out, Lazarus-like from ‘modified quarantine’ to tell his scary Senate story!
“Fauci, who is on ‘modified quarantine’ for contact with someone who tested positive for the virus is scheduled to testify by remote for the hearing held by the Senate Health Education, Labor and Pensions Committee. The hearing will feature testimony by Fauci and three other members of the White House coronavirus task force.” (Gateway Pundit)
Meanwhile back at the thorny Rose Garden came trouble in paradise. “John Roberts of Fox News hit out at ABC News Jonathan Karl on Twitter. (Daily Mail, May 11, 2020) 
“Karl posted a photo of Roberts not wearing a mask at White House Rose Garden.  “ 'Almost everybody is wearing a mask - almost everybody,' Karl tweeted . “Roberts interpreted the tweet as an attack on him for briefly not wearing a mask. “Fox News reporter tweeted that he put the mask on after photo was taken. “Karl later denied that he was trying to 'shame' Roberts with the tweet.” 

Probing journalists won’t leave off from Trump attacks until they get the money shot of him wearing a face mask

A Twitter feud was ongoing between the two White House news correspondents at the time of this writing.
“Karl then posted four pictures showing journalists and White House aides wearing face coverings both before and during the news conference.” (Daily Mail)
Both scribes should be asked: “Who cares?” Thousands of elderly people are dying in nursing homes, but no ‘journalist’ at White House briefings has asked a single question about the heartbreaking deaths of these poor souls.   According to the Daily Mail, the Secret Service agents charged with safeguarding the president will finally begin wearing protective masks – even as the president himself continues to shy from the practice.  Probing journalists won’t leave off from Trump attacks until they get the money shot of him wearing a face mask. While the Jon and John carry on with their family Twitter feud, no one in the mainstream media is talking about how CBS News' Weijia Jiang whipped her face mask off when yet again pulling out the race card against the president.


The media is far more interested in attacking President Trump

“Jiang asked President Trump why he was emphasizing the United States' led in testing for the coronavirus when there was still a high rate of infection. 'Why does that matter? Why is it global competition to you if every day Americans are still losing their lives and we are still seeing more cases every day?' she asked. (Daily Mail) 'Maybe that's a question you should ask China,' Trump responded.'Don't ask me. Ask China that question, okay,' the president said. 'When you ask them that question, you make it a very unusual answer.’
Whipping off her mask, Jiang, who is Chinese American, asked Trump: 'Sir, why are you saying that to me—specifically.’ Incredibly, the question periods following White House briefings could easily be redefined as ‘gang up’ sessions. The media is far more interested in attacking President Trump than about informing the public about the status of one of the worst virus outbreaks in history. Their juvenile one-upmanship has become an ongoing blood sport that would easily qualify for a Soap Opera Emmy Award, if Dr. Fauci doesn’t get it first.
