'Biden promised to restore trust, but trust is in short supply': Now AP turns on the president after State Dept spokesman Ned Price questioned the loyalty of its reporter who asked for proof of claim Putin is planning 'false flag' operation
UK Daily Mail ^ | February 6 2022 | ASSOCIATED PRESS and JAMES GORDON FOR DAILYMAIL.COM

The Associated Press has aired its grievances with President Biden's administration after reporters were accused of being 'disloyal' for asking probing questions.

During several encounters last week, when the administration was asked for evidence to back up dramatic claims about national security developments, it simply retorted: 'You'll have to trust us on that.'

The Biden administration appears to be becoming more hostile and wary of reporters that in the past were 'friendly' toward Democratic administrations.

Exactly the same as when zero was in office. The press fell all over themselves and still it wasn’t enough for the big O.

President Donald Trump routinely misrepresented basic facts about his administration throughout his term and continues to spread falsehoods about the last election.

Ass Press continues to try to get a dig in on an entirely unrelated article. This is what propaganda looks like when it's unraveling to nothing.

I loved Reagan’s famous quote, “trust, but verify.”

Joe promised to be Mr. Transparency, but that was before he learned that he and Hunter had so much to hide.

‘Biden promised to restore truth in Washington after defeating Trump, but trust appears to be in short supply one year after taking office.’

Trust. Clinton? Obama? Biden? Who are these alleged reporters kidding?

RE: “Administration officials would not reveal how they knew that Russia was plotting a false flag operation as a pretext to invade Ukraine”

After pushback from two reliable allies, AP & NPR, I cannot help but wonder if replacing the word, RUSSIA with two words, UNITED STATES would make that sentence accurate.

It pains me to say it, but I no longer trust anything coming out of Washington, from either party.

Falsehoods = you pointed out Dominion/Zuck/Abrams and the big Steal

Misinformation = not going with the 5x booster COVID crap and demonizing early therapeutics

F-ing liars and freaks.

There was one AP reporter last week that actually asked real question of the State Department twit.

It was amazing.

Like going back in time before ‘reporters’ became butt boys for the Democrat party. Back to a time when people read newspapers for information - flash information - not for gossip, elite airs and crystal ball BS.

It was good.
