The White House press office barred The Post from attending President Biden’s only daytime public event Monday as federal prosecutors near a decision on criminally charging first son Hunter Biden for tax fraud and other crimes.

The Post has closely covered the president’s ties to his relatives’ foreign dealings and first reported in October 2020 on files from Hunter’s abandoned laptop that link Joe Biden to ventures in China and Ukraine.

Biden, who falsely characterized The Post’s reporting as Russian disinformation, appeared with Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg to talk about airline policies in the White House-adjacent Eisenhower Executive Office Building

They can’t break the habit of silencing these guys. I assume they have a supporting letter from 51 “journalists”.

Eventually, they may just jail Miranda Devine reporter with the NYPost. She should check her computer occasionally for bugs and to make sure they haven’t installed child porn on it.

NY Post staffer: “oh crap, I forgot to submit the credential request before the deadline for today’s presser.”

NY Post reporter: “well, they’re expecting us to file a report. You better figure something out.”

NY Post staffer: “how about I send the credential request now, and if we get rejected, we spin it as Biden is afraid of you because of how hard hitting our reporting is?”

NY Post reporter: “That’s actually going to be better than whatever garbage they’re going to do at the press event. I’m really only there to cover it if the old man croaks on stage anyway. Why don’t you wait a few hours just to make sure we get a rejection and I’ll draft up the copy.”

When Trump kicked out CNN’s Jim Acosta the rest of the White House press corps rose up in hate and anger (well, nothing new THERE).

Now they’re fine with this.

Exhibit ZZZZZZZZZZ in the proof of bias in media. In case they ask. LOL!

Indictment? Are you kidding indictment? Indictments are only meant for conservatives. Want proof? Just take a look at the verdict Alex Baldwin got after the murder of his camerawoman and he didn’t even get a slap on the wrist. He got scott free and so will Hunter.

Remember when all hell broke loose when Trump tried to ban one “reporter”? Creepy Joe bans an entire news org and the others just yawn.

“Biden ultimately took no shouted questions at the venue, which houses the set of a “fake” White House :

Bidet gets lost in the real White House.

If the W@H bans The Post from covering Pres. Biden’s public event about Biden family problems that concern the nation, I’d have to conclude that someone is telling the truth here & someone else is lying. It is up to anyone’s personal integrity to determine who might be doing what.
