First lady Jill Biden is on Vogue’s next cover in a gushing profile posted Monday — as she vowed not to give up on the 2024 race despite hubby President Biden’s disastrous debate performance. Speaking from Camp David where the Biden family were holed up for the weekend, Jill told the magazine “will not let those 90 minutes define the four years he’s been president.” “We will continue to fight,” she continued in the feature published Monday, claiming that Biden “will always do what’s best for the country.” The first lady’s defiance comes as she faces a firestorm of criticism...

First Lady Jill Biden has been featured on Vogue’s next cover in a gushing profile feature — as she vowed not to give up on the 2024 race despite President Biden’s disastrous debate performance. Speaking from Camp David where the Biden family were holed up for the weekend, Jill told the magazine “will not let those 90 minutes define the four years he’s been president.” “We will continue to fight,” she continued in the feature published Monday, claiming that Biden “will always do what’s best for the country.”

Even as reports circulated that President Joe Biden was set to spend the weekend reevaluating his 2024 presidential campaign, another report suggested any such confab would have to wait until after the family photo shoot with famed Vogue photographer Annie Leibovitz. The New York Times White House correspondent Katie Rogers posted an update on X, noting that the photo shoot had been specifically set for this particular weekend in order to accommodate the now-convicted First Son Hunter Biden and his family.

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre has separated from Suzanne Malveaux, her partner of more than 10 years. In a new interview with Vogue published on 7 September, Jean-Pierre, 49, revealed that the two have shared custody of their nine-year-old daughter, Soleil. “I’m a single mom who is co-parenting this amazing kid,” she told Vogue. “Our number-one priority is her privacy and to make sure we create an environment that’s nurturing.” Jean-Pierre and Malveaux first met at the Democratic National Convention in 2012. Her former partner served as a White House correspondent for CNN for more than 10 years, before...

WASHINGTON – So that’s why she had no time for our questions! White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre took a break from her duties as President Biden’s top spokesman to model three outfits for a fawning profile in Vogue’s latest issue — drawing sharp criticism from reporters in the capital. ... “It’s sad that a magazine that purports to be practicing journalism is profiling a press secretary that’s gone out of her way to deliberately silence members of the press corps,” said one veteran White House reporter. “We shouldn’t be rewarding those who actively obfuscate facts and seek to undermine...

The White House’s game-playing over media access to first granddaughter Naomi Biden’s wedding this past weekend has been too much for some reporters to take — with one Washington Post scribe comparing the administration to Biden’s predecessor, Donald Trump. WaPo national correspondent Ashley Parker was one of several journalists to express outrage after the press was locked out of Naomi Biden’s “private” wedding — only for Vogue to publish a photo spread of the blushing 28-year-old bride alongside first lady Jill Biden on Tuesday. “I had reporting in [October] about Vogue being tapped to cover this and I was waved...

Jewish News Syndicate editor-in-chief and National Review contributing writer Jonathan Tobin claimed that journalists who pushed the narrative that Democratic U.S. Senate candidate John Fetterman was completely healthy to run for office "lied" in order to ensure that Democrats "maintain control of the Senate." In his column for The Jewish News Syndicate, Tobin declared that these "team blue journalists" "were prepared to cover up or falsify the facts about his health in order to advance his candidacy." [cut] Tobin’s piece, titled, "The painful truth about media bias: Some journalists lie," began with the observation that the debate between Fetterman and...

Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky and his wife Olena Zelenska have sparked a strong reaction online, after posing for a Vogue photoshoot in the midst of their nation's ongoing fight against invading Russian troops. With more than 150 days having passed since Russian President Vladimir Putin's fighters entered neighboring Ukraine, the couple posed for the U.S. edition of the fashion bible in a series of shots taken by famed photographer Annie Leibovitz. While glamorous shots show the two hugging one another while seated at a table, another shows the first lady sitting on the grand staircase of a building filled with...

Former first lady Melania Trump has slammed Vogue editor-in-chief, Anna Wintour, for never putting her on the cover when her husband was president, in her first interview since leaving the White House. Fox Nation host Pete Hegseth raised the topic in his sit down with Melania, noting that first ladies Jill Biden, Michelle Obama, and Hillary Clinton have all appeared on the cover of Vogue and that Vice President Kamala Harris got the honor even before she was sworn in. “They’re biased and they have likes and dislikes, and it’s so obvious. And I think American people and everyone sees...

Vice President Kamala Harris felt "belittled" and "wounded" by the cover photo of her that Vogue selected for its February 2021 issue and dispatched a top aide to complain to Anna Wintour, a forthcoming book reportedly says. Politico's West Wing Playbook newsletter on Tuesday published excerpts of "This Will Not Pass: Trump, Biden, and the Battle for America's Future" by the New York Times reporters Jonathan Martin and Alexander Burns, set to be released in May, that detailed Harris' reaction to the controversial Vogue cover.

CNN's Jake Tapper is one of the most well-known television journalists in the US. Tapper values truth, transparency, honesty, and kindness, according to interviews. He's naturally skeptical and, to remain neutral, he doesn't vote. Politico says he could be the best current television interviewer in the US. He grew up in a Philadelphia "hippy" household, but one focused on what was right and wrong. After three years he left Washington City Paper to become the Washington Correspondent for Salon. His editor at the time Joan Walsh said it was clear that he wasn't ideologically driven. Tapper's wife says her husband...

In light of Virginia Republican candidate Glenn Youngkin’s win against former governor Terry McAuliffe, Teen Vogue claimed conservatives are “actively building a movement around whitelash” and “incendiary race-baiting propaganda,” as Democrats abstain from “focusing on what actually makes them different” and fail to “make a compelling argument about why they should win,” blaming their losses on having not been progressive enough. Columnist Lexi McMenamin argued that Democrats “need to prioritize a progressive future over reminding voters of our recent Trump-era past.” Observing that pundits have started “blaming anything from an ‘enthusiasm gap’ to (predictably) progressives” after a “rough showing for...

Vogue has released a fawning video of socialist firebrand Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and her enormous glam squad revealing how they put together the now-infamous 'Tax the rich' dress for her controversial Met Gala appearance. AOC was coy about her controversial appearance at the ultra-elite Met Gala before DailyMail.com revealed that she and her boyfriend Riley Roberts had their $35,000-a-head tickets comped by the museum. However, this new video shows that Vogue and AOC were partners in the controversy. The magazine posted a 10-minute video late Thursday night documenting the Democratic congresswoman's preparations for fashion's big night out.

I forgot that today is FLOTUS Friday, and what with Dr. Jilly hitting the Vogue cover (photography by none other than the legendary Lefty Annie Liebowitz!) my little math story will have to wait another day.I didn’t bother to read the article until the Jerusalem Post took time out of their busy day to mock America’s fawning media coverage of the FLOTUS: Why did ‘Vogue’ call Dr. Jill Biden a ‘goddess in stilettos?’The real reason God created hosieryI would say Dr. Jilly looks more like an aging school marm than a goddess given these feet, legs and hands but what...

Vogue: fashion magazine or state propaganda? If you thought you knew, Tucker Carlson has exposed the periodical for the bastion of bolshevism that it is. Highlighting a profile of First Lady Jill Biden in the magazine published this week, the Fox host painted the piece as something akin to North Korean propaganda. “When it comes to authentic state media cult of personality hero worship,” Carlson declared, “the propagandists at North Korea’s Communist Party news agency look on in awe at the reporters of Vogue magazine in New York. The Vogue guys do Stalinism the old-fashioned way: they are all in.”...

The 7,000-word piece is an earlobe-licking valentine...The really interesting thing is to compare this cover story of Dr Jill with the cover story that Vogue ran of the last FLOTUS, Melania Trump.Ha, ha, ha. Just kidding. There was no cover story of Melania in Vogue or, as far as I know, any other major women’s magazine, during her time as first lady. Melania, a former model, is elegant and, to continue to speak plainly, gorgeous. She does not have an advanced degree in education from the University of Delaware, it’s true. She has not written a dissertation on ‘Student Retention...

Vogue, the world's fashion bible, has placed Jill Biden on her cover as the epitome of fashion. She's a "goddess," they explain.Which is a stretch, given that the first lady has sported getups like this loud red zebra print dress, or these huge-print patterned pantyhose worn with elfin spike heel ankle boots.It goes to show that its whole schtick is politics, not fashion. After all, the big fashion bible for the world's stylish somehow managed to overlook the nation's truly stylish first lady, Melania Trump, a former super-model, who not only was quite beautiful, but age-appropriate and elegant in her...

So much of what people call "news" isn't hard facts. There's a less favorable word for it: publicity. When Democrats rule, news meets a dam, and publicity overflows. On June 29, ABC's "Good Morning America" aired several minutes of this, swooning over Jill Biden and promoting a preposterously positive cover story in the August issue of Vogue magazine. Nobody reads Vogue for hard facts about politics. The fashion magazine, run by longtime Democrat Anna Wintour, is a willing participant in glossy propaganda. ABC reporter Janai Norman happily repeated that Jill Biden told Vogue: "I want the White House to feel...

If you’re a Democratic First Lady, you can expect lots of puff pieces from outlets like ABC’s Good Morning America and Vogue magazine. If you’re a Republican? Not as much. GMA journalists on Tuesday gushed over Jill Biden appearing on Vogue for the first time, hailing the “inspiration.” ABC reporter Janai Norman sounded like she was a PR rep for the Democrat, fawning, “Dr. Jill Biden, the First Lady who is also a former second lady, a current professor who is sometimes called Dr. B. But according to Vogue, in informal settings she'll say to call her Jill.” Working to...

First lady Jill Biden said Americans are able to “breathe” again because of how her husband handled the pandemic and got “shots in everybody’s arms” — but she neglected to mention the Trump administration’s Operation Warp Speed, which provided those vaccines. “When I travel around the country now, I feel as though people can breathe again,” Biden said in a lengthy profile in Vogue accompanying her August cover.
