EXCLUSIVE – President Trump has canceled the White House holiday party for the media, making the decades-old tradition a victim of his increasingly contentious relationship with major news organizations.

The annual Christmas-season gathering was a significant perk for those covering the White House, as well as other Washington reporters, anchors and commentators, and New York media executives would regularly fly in for the occasion. At its peak, the invitation-only soirees grew so large that there were two back-to-back events, one for broadcast outlets and one for print organizations.

Journalists who attended the events, which featured a catered buffet of lamb chops, crab claws and elaborate desserts, got to roam the decorated mansion with a spouse or other family member, a friend or a colleague, adding to the invitation's allure.

I couldn’t agree more. The voter fraud should be first priority on a state-wide scale.

Whoops, more evidence of Trump’s continuing pattern of obstruction of justice. He’s toast. /s

Yep, like I heard on all the news channels this morning - "This is the beginning of the end of the Trump Presidency" LOL

GOOD

The “press” is nothing but a tool for the Deep State and Democrats (and GOP Establishment).

Gotta love President Trump. You know, the guy with cojones so big they clank when he walks?

The press has to be nuts to think they deserve anything from the man. Sorry, correction, how ‘bout lumps of coal?

Who says there is no good news?

The last place Demons should be is in the White House. Everything that wasn’t under guard or nailed down was in danger of being stolen.

You have to face the fact that races should not have been close enough to cheat to victory. Any rational electorate, as opposed to our current brainwashed one, would have blown the Demons to smithereens outside of a few shitholes.

This was a rejection of Trump’s agenda no matter how you cut it.

This is allowed by the People which is blind.

Could you imagine the revelation of an attempted fascist takeover twenty years ago would have been treated with a yawn or agreement?

Watergate is trivial compared to this and the People don’t care enough to even look into it.

It is all inside baseball so far.

Your points are strong. I don’t know how many citizens are actually voting, and how far and wide the fraud is. The fraud needs to be cleaned up, AND, the citizens need to be awakened, deprogrammed, and properly educated. Is it doable? I personally believe we’ve passed that point, but of course, time will tell.
