I reflected on Air Force One today about what a redemptive arc I have experienced being a part of the Presidential Press Pool. For four years of Biden I was at my wit’s end, sometimes living in real fear of literally being arrested by Biden’s DOJ for relentlessly reporting...

Over the past 25 years, I have taken up numerous causes as a journalist for the sake of the common citizens of India, particularly in Kashmir. Throughout my career, I have paid a heavy price for speaking truth to power, including during my 2019 testimony at the US Congress. Now, five years later, I am back, still asking tough questions about the swamp. Today, it was great to speak up and pose questions at the Oval Office in the White House before President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, on the challenges to electoral democracy within both the US and India.

A moment I could never have even dreamt of…being inside the The White House press briefing room and getting the opportunity to ask Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt a question about a topic that is near & dear to my heart…a topic for which I and too many others have received so much unwarranted hate. But in the end, good wins!!! And that’s exactly what happened yesterday, thanks to President Donald J. Trump!! Forever grateful for for this opportunity 🙏🏽 #savewomenssports MAHAAction Alexander Klett

"Honest" and "respectful." That's the White House response to the President of the United States calling a reporter "piggy." When asked about the the comment made on Air Force One, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt responded: "I think the president being frank and open and honest to your faces, rather than hiding behind your backs, is frankly, a lot more respectful than what you saw in the last administration." 🤔

Vice President JD Vance was not mincing words in ending the White House press briefing by again ripping the press for their Minneapolis coverage... “And again, thank you all for — for listening. Thanks for taking questions. And I just ask you, look, this is politics and often Republicans and you know, get — get in — get in arguments with the press about things. And I understand that. I think it's really irresponsible for you guys to go out there and imply or tell the American people that a guy who defended himself from being rammed by an automobile is guilty of murder, be a little bit more careful. We want to talk about toning down the temperature, which I know the President wants to do, and I certainly want to do. One of the ways we tone down the temperature is to have a media that tells the truth. I encourage you all to do that. God bless you. [REPORTERS SHOUTING] Happy New Year, guys!”

“We Can’t Let That Happen Again… The Election Was Rigged and Stolen” - President Donald J. Trump BREAKING: At today’s The White House press briefing, LindellTV’s Cara Castronuova broke through the noise with a bold, unfiltered question: “So many Americans still have questions about the 2020 election. And speaking of rogue judges, would you consider appointing somebody at DOJ—maybe to investigate the judges that allowed for the political persecution of you..?” President Donald J. Trump's response was immediate and emphatic: “I love that question… We can’t let that happen again. The election was rigged and stolen.” A powerful moment and one that highlighted the growing demand for justice, accountability, and the end of weaponized lawfare.

JOURNALISTS WERE BANNED FROM ASKING QUESTIONS ABOUT ELECTION INTEGRITY FOR FOUR YEARS UNDER THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION (FOR OBVIOUS REASONS). Remember, the Biden DOJ and rogue judges unconstitutionally persecuted, jailed and tortured American citizens and journalists that protested/questioned the 2020 election in order to terrorize us into submission. The FBI even encroached on my home (UN-WELCOMED). By the grace of God, journalists are now permitted to actually do their jobs and ask questions about ELECTION INTEGRITY AND THE 2020 ELECTION. I asked Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt a question about President Trump's election integrity executive order at a press briefing at the White House today. Me- "First and foremost, thank you to the administration for the election integrity executive order because so many journalists for four years were banned from talking about this very subject-so thank you to the administration for that. My question is- yesterday President Trump when signing the order said there’s more to come when it comes to election integrity. Would that include same day voting and hand-counted paper ballots? And why are Democrats against election integrity measures like proof of citizenship when it comes to voting in a United States election?" Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt- "Well, it’s a very good question. You’ll have to ask the Democrats why they are against so many common sense things- not just mandating voter ID…why are they against men in women’s sports, why are they against deporting foreign terrorists from American soil who have been designated a foreign terrorist organization. And I am referring to Tren de Aragua. As for the election integrity order that the President signed yesterday, this is in an effort to restore trust in American elections. There were more than ten steps taken, ten executive actions taken throughout this one order. It directs the attorney general and homeland security to prevent non-citizens from any involvement in administering elections. There is also another host of actions. We can provide the fact sheet for you but it’s a very strong election integrity Executive Order and the President would also like to see Congress do something about this very important issue." Thank you Mike Lindell LindellTV for keeping this fight alive when so many journalists were being canceled and politically persecuted for asking questions about FAIR ELECTIONS.

In the interest of full transparency here are the details of my return to the White House Press Briefing room to ask a question from the new media seat: After Karoline Leavitt announced the new media seat and application process I filled out the form and reached out to several individuals who I previously knew from covering the complex with my interest in attending a briefing sometime in the future. They were noncommittal In the last 24 hours they reached out to me to see if I will still interested and I told them I was. *At no point* did I provide any of the questions I intended to ask to the White House and the first time they heard the questions was the first time that you all did during the briefing There was also no agreement or ask on their part as to the number of questions we would cover. I was given the opportunity to open the briefing and prepared 3 separate questions I thought were important 1. The stock market drop and the White House's reaction + whether they would commit to ruling out a recession 2. What message the White House thinks they are sending by trying to primary Thomas Massie 3. To get them on the record as to the legal standard they are using to deport Mahmoud Khalil I prepared those questions to reflect the concerns of Americans right now on the economy, concerns within the party as to what the standard is for Trump to intervene against you, and also to ask a question relating to a free speech issue which has animated online discourse in the last 24 hours I believe it is important to set a standard for independent media to ask questions that reflect why we became popular in the first place: Meeting people where they are at and asking questions about things that really effect them I want to thank the White House staff and Karoline Leavitt for inviting me to the briefing room and hope to return at some point in the future. I look forward to seeing others in the seat and setting a better standard than the legacy media Below is the full exchange I had with Karoline and a photo we took after the briefing

"We have a president who is working with enormous determination to continue to undermine public confidence in the press and to undermine the economic sustainability of the press. That said, I think a good portion of the press is doing a really good job, reporting very aggressively on what's happening in this administration, telling the public what it needs and deserves to know." Veteran news editor Marty Baron talks to me about the challenges facing the media under Trump and says "we ought to stick together, all for one and one for all."

On my third day as a White House Reporter for Mike Lindell and Rudy W. Giuliani and writer for The Gateway Pundit, I got to witness the swearing in ceremony of Robert F. Kennedy Jr with President Donald J. Trump! I also got to ask a question! God was in the room. I felt Him and I can attest to that. Secretary Kennedy was sworn in by the great Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch and standing to the side of the President’s desk to witness the magic were five GOATs of the People’s House and the Senate. Rand Paul Ron Johnson Dr. Roger Marshall Marjorie Taylor Greene 🇺🇸 Buddy Carter Kennedy’s close family was there with him and they were so proud. So were all of the freedom fighters watching on TV that fought tooth and nail for their champion, & hundreds of millions of Americans across the country that want a HHS Secretary HHS that will fight for our health and not corporate/bureaucrat greed. I started out this journey to becoming a White House Reporter standing on a wood crate box in Union Square Park in NYC as a canceled outcast screaming into a megaphone about medical freedom and opposing lockdowns five years ago. Robert F. Kennedy Jr & Children’s Health Defense inspired me. One year later I began fighting for election integrity and shortly after that for the freedom of the political prisoners of J6, inspired by Donald J. Trump. To be in the room as an eyewitness to the swearing in of a living legend into the administration of another living legend was surreal. I started tearing up, but Reuters and CSPAN had their giant cameras, so I held it in 😊. Kennedy said: “A heathy person has a hundred wishes, but an unhealthy person has only one.” Here’s to the People of America’s health. In the end God wins. ✝️.

THIS IS HUGE! Karoline Leavitt announced that the White House Press Association, the shadow organization that has been controlling the press room for decades, will no longer have ANY power. "We want more outlets and new outlets to have a chance to take part in the press pool to cover this administration's unprecedented achievements up close, front and center." "As you all know, for decades, a group of D.C.-based journalists, the White House Correspondents Association, has long dictated which journalists get to ask questions of the President of the United States in these most intimate spaces. NOT ANYMORE." "I am proud to announce that we are going to give the power back to the people who read your papers, who watch your television shows and who listen to your radio stations. Moving forward, the White House press pool will be determined by the White House press team." I think this cements Karoline Leavitt as the greatest Press Secretary in history.

Scott Bessent BODIED the NYT over questioning Trump’s health after being silent on Biden and Kennedy is all for it “The press should be skeptical, the press should ask questions, and they did that during the first Trump administration… and then NOTHING during the Biden administration. I was hopeful this is what the press would become after the first Trump administration but then they completely receeded which means they’re hypocritical and untrustworthy. And NOW all off a sudden they’re activating to as these questions??”

Karoline Leavitt FIRES BACK at KJP after being labeled “deplorable” on The View. You could feel the conviction in Leavitt’s every word, right up to the final punchline that ripped the mask off KJP’s agenda. WATTERS: “She called you deplorable and you say?” LEAVITT: “Well, with all due respect to my predecessor, she is one of the main culprits of the greatest cover-up and scandals in American history. She took the podium every day and lied to the press about the incompetence of her boss. “And on this book tour, she continues to lie. She said this past week that Joe Biden would still be up for the job if he had, God forbid, been reelected in November. She actually said this week as well on a podcast that Joe Biden did more press engagements than President Trump currently does now. Any person across the aisle can tell you that is a bald-faced lie. “And I will just add, when you talk to the real journalists—not the ones who are actually activists that pose as journalists—but the people who actually care about truth, and there are some of those left in the White House press corps, I work with them every day, they will tell you the Trump White House is the most accessible and transparent White House ever. “Not only does the president take questions from the press on a near-daily basis, multiple times per day, as he did today, but we also provide truthful and accurate information about what this administration is doing and accomplishing. And it’s a stark contrast to what they had over the past four years where they were gaslit, where they were told Joe Biden was mentally stable and up for the job. “That was a lie. Where they were told the administration was doing everything it could to secure the border. Also a lie. I’m very proud to work for the greatest president in history. I know Karine unfortunately worked for the most incompetent president in history. So I guess she has a reason to be bitter. “But being bitter WILL NOT SELL YOU BOOKS, Jesse.”

🚨NEW: Scott Jennings lays out the facts as CNN panel seethes over WH press access reforms: “In the first months of the Trump administration, the president took 1009 questions, hardly dictatorial behavior. Same stat for Joe Biden, 141." "And I would remind you all that in 2023, the Biden administration revoked the hard passes of 442 journalists." "And at the time, the White House Correspondents Association took a non-committal stance. So if you're worried about transparency, Trump is being just more transparent."

In the past week Clint Russell asked Bret Weinstein how he would grade Trump, now that Bret voted for him for the first time in the 2024 election. Here is Bret's response: "I am confused by what I see... I am completely comfortable with having voted for Trump. It was my first time because of the apocalypse that was represented by the blue ticket. And so I just don't think there was any rational choice. We had an absolute emergency on our hands and this simple ability to vote for something that was in some way authentic made it the only game in town. Now, as for what is transpiring under the Trump administration, I am aware that there is a labyrinth of power and a hidden priority list. The administration presumably has things it wants to accomplish. The labyrinth of power sets the ground rules as to what can be accomplished at what rate and in exchange for what, I know I'm not privy to that. And so the real question is how does the stack up compared to what was possible given the cards that president Trump held on inauguration? And I don't think any of us are in a position to answer that. So, you know, is the disappointment the result of the fact that the constraints on the president are greater than we hoped and maybe imagined? Are they the result of the priorities not being the represented priorities? Undoubtedly that plays some role. But, you know, again, in light of what was, you know, we had President Biden was not the president in the meaningful sense. To have attempted to run him again. And then at the point that that became implausible, to swap in an empty shirt is such a dire commentary on the state of the Republic that I think every conversation about how the Trump administration is doing has to begin with the fact that there was no alternative."

🚨BREAKING: THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION IS NOW ARRESTING INDEPENDENT JOURNALISTS FOR REPORTING ABOUT THE MINNESOTA ANTI-ICE CHURCH PROTEST. This IS the censorship Republicans spent years screamed about… Independent journalist Georgia Fort was on the scene as a member of the press, doing exactly what journalists are supposed to do: film and document a protest. For that, she was arrested by the FBI. In her own words: “As a member of the press, I filmed the church protest a few weeks ago and now I’m being arrested for that. It’s hard to understand how we have a Constitution, Constitutional rights, when we can just be arrested for being a member of the press.” Read that again. She wasn’t organizing. She wasn’t participating. She was reporting. They want journalists to think twice before showing up… They want cameras turned off. They want documentation of their crimes and constitutional violations to stop. If you witness something the Trump administration doesn’t want seen, you become the target. When a government starts treating observation as participation, and documentation as a crime… You no longer have free press. This is what authoritarian governments do. They don’t ban the press outright… they terrorize it into silence. If journalists can be arrested for doing their jobs, then the public loses its witnesses, its accountability, and its ability to know the truth. And once that’s gone, everything else is easy to hide.

It’s hard to understand how we have a Constitution, Constitutional rights, when we can just be arrested for being a member of the press.” Read that again. She wasn’t organizing. She wasn’t participating. She was reporting. They want journalists to think twice before showing up… They want cameras turned off. They want documentation of their crimes and constitutional violations to stop. If you witness something the Trump administration doesn’t want seen, you become the target. When a government starts treating observation as participation, and documentation as a crime… You no longer have free press. This is what authoritarian governments do. They don’t ban the press outright… they terrorize it into silence. If journalists can be arrested for doing their jobs, then the public loses its witnesses, its accountability, and its ability to know the truth. And once that’s gone, everything else is easy to hide.

More from Trump and Qatar gift: "I think this is just a gesture of good-faith." "It'll go to my library... I thought it was a great gesture." He says he would NOT use the plane himself after leaving office. It would basically sit in his library. "I think what happens with the plane is that, you know, we're very disappointed that it's taking Boeing so long to build a new Air Force One. You know, we have an Air Force One that's 40 years old. And if you take a look at that compared to the new plane of the equivalent, you know, stature at the time, it's not even the same ballgame. You look at some of the Arab countries and the planes they have parked alongside of the United States of America plane, it's like from a different planet." "When I came back, I said, by the way, what's going on with the Boeings that are coming in? 'Well, sir, they're way behind.' And they are way behind." "I think Qatar, who has really, we've helped them a lot over the years in terms of security and safety. I think they, and very, very nicely, and I have a lot of respect for the leadership and for the leader, Qatar. And I think they knew about it because they buy Boeings, they buy a lot of Boeings. And they knew about it and they said 'we would like to do something,' and if we can get a 747 as a contribution to our Defense Department to use during a couple of years while they're building the other ones - I think that was a very nice gesture." "Now, I could be a stupid person and say, oh, no, we don't want a free plane. We give free things out. We'll take one, too. And it helps us out because, again, we're talking about we have 40-year-old aircraft. The money we spend, the maintenance we spend on those planes to keep them tippy-top is astronomical."
