Jesus Fucking Christ already. Fuck the press.

[LuckyCharms]

Heinous motherfuckers are literally berating POTUS to his face.

Grow some fucking balls and do the same thing to Trump, you miserable fucks.

[kimbutgar]

1. I can't imagine TFA standing up and answering those questions like President Biden did tonight!

[Kennah]

2. He'd have his thugs there in full Trump regalia beating them

[kimbutgar]

7. Exactly he would tell his thugs to throw out those rude reporters!

President Biden has big balls and TFA is a lying pussy ass!

[Skittles]

49. so what are you saying

only male body parts = courage?

truly sexist nonsense

[LuckyCharms]

4. Trump would have folded like a fucking lawn chair.

I'm fucking furious at the disrespect.

[DENVERPOPS]

43. that barrage by the Presidential

press squad was horrific...........I told my wife, that that group is all the worst of the worst. They have spent their lives gaining that position, and they are gonna do whatever pleases their Republican Owners to keep that position.......

[ShazzieB]

19. TFA?

I presume this means Trump, but I'm not sure what the letters stand for (although I have some guesses).

To me, he's now TSF.

[kimbutgar]

31. The F'ing A hole

[ShazzieB]

38. Thanks!

That's exactly what I guessed!

[Old Crank]

53. Just remember

That their fabulous leader only talks to media that tongue bathes his.....

[malaise]

3. No class, no manners

No respect.-eff them.

[OAITW r.2.0]

11. Let me make this pellucidly clear....

I wanna join the Malaise Heart Train!

[malaise]

16. We need to share the love

[yankee87]

5. So True!!!!!!!!!!

Second time the Justice Department did this.
Fuck face, forgets WWII and crickets.

[senseandsensibility]

6. Pigs

They're too full of themselves to be embarrassed but they should be.

[LymphocyteLover]

8. they never give Dems a break while bending over backwards for the GOP... it's despicable

[OAITW r.2.0]

9. Sounds like a pack of Hyena's.

This type of outshout behaviour degrades their profession. Ought to be a better way to ask questions.

[Blaukraut]

10. This presser might have been a mistake

If Joe had any hope that he would field questions about the report's findings regarding the documents, he had to have been disappointed. Although I'm guessing he wasn't surprised that it was all about his mental state and age.

[LeftInTX]

58. He should have waited a day.

And sent only his impactful written release tonight.

The reason I say "wait a day" is because his stuttering has an impact and it takes him a bit longer to prepare an impactful speech. He was upset and he is prone to gaffes when he is upset. I know he wanted his "Johnny get angry" moment, but his mild speech issues hindered it a bit.

___

I'm just really upset over the whole thing. (Not Biden, but the report, Garland, the media)

[ecstatic]

12. yeah, that was terrible. Disgusting people.

The tone was just nasty.

[yorkster]

13. Pack of jackals.

It was disgusting and infuriating.

[gab13by13]

14. What do you people expect?

Hur’s report was just as bad what Barr did to the Mueller report.
Biden shared classified docs- no he fucking didn’t
The FBI found the documents- fuck no it was Biden’s lawyers.
Hur fucking mischaracterized Biden’s memory about his son’s death.
In the words of Weismann and Katyal, Garland failed to police Hur’s report.
Biden was so mad at this press conference that he would have punched Hur in the face.

[DENVERPOPS]

44. The epitome of despicable behavior

was going after Biden's dead son............

2024 is going to be like nothing else that has happened in the entire history of the United States.........It is gonna be nothing but horrific savagery by them every day from here on in until the Election......

Katie Bar The Door.......

[hadEnuf]

66. Hur is bottom of the barrel MAGA shit.

To appoint someone like him and not check his work in order to look "non-partisan" is total nonsense. MAGAts are nothing BUT partisan.

We are in a cold war with people who want to trade in Democracy for Fascism, and they are more than willing to pull every low-life trick in the book to achieve that, including turning the cold war hot.

It is very dangerous to play the milquetoast, bi-partisan nonsense game when bi-partisanship simply doesn't exist anymore. All it is doing is giving the enemies of democracy an opening to cause more damage while continuing their
coup d'état.

This needs to be fully and urgently realized.

[AllaN01Bear]

15. this . multiple dings .multiple snorks .

[Bev54]

17. Fuck Hur for writing that in his report - total BS.

[skypilot]

18. I almost told my roommate...

...to change the channel. I was disgusted by how clamoring the press was with Biden when they cowered before Trump and Bush. But I loved his smackdown of that one reporter whose name I always forget. When Biden told him "My memory is so bad that I let you speak" my roommate and I both howled.

[crickets]

24. The reporter was probably Peter Doocy. I got a good laugh out of that one as well. nt

[skypilot]

26. Ok, his last name IS Doocy.

I keep wanting to call him Steve Doocy but I know that that's the guy from FOX. Thanks for clearing up my confusion.

[DET]

33. Peter Doocy is Steve Doocy's Son

And he’s an obnoxious pretend journalist. I suspect that Biden called on him first knowing that Doocy would focus on the most inflammatory allegations in the report - that Biden is ancient and has a bad memory. Biden’s response displayed his righteous anger towards those uninformed, gratuitous remarks. Biden got his point through right away and made Doocy look like the twit that he is. Although he had a lot of competition in that roomful of banshies.

[crickets]

20. The press behavior after Biden's remarks was appalling.

This wasn't a press conference, it was a bratty free-for-all. There is no excuse for a president having to shout over them at one point so he could answer a question. Frankly, none of the questions were worthwhile, with the exception of the hostage question, which was out of place. Screw all of them. They behaved like unruly, bottom-feeding hacks.

eta:

Grow some fucking balls and do the same thing to Trump, you miserable fucks.

👆👆👆

[DENVERPOPS]

46. I repeat

that white house press squad is beyond horrific...........I told my wife, that that group is all the worst of the worst. They have spent their lives gaining that position in the White House Press Corps, and they are gonna say and do whatever pleases their Republican Owned Media Corporation to keep that position.......

Look no further than the night after night after night softballs they threw Trump during the time of the Pandemic.

[Cha]

21. I'll drink to that and not

Even watching

[MustLoveBeagles]

29. I don't know about you

But I'm glad I missed it.

[Cha]

35. I always miss it

I don’t have a tv

Good to see you, Beagles!

[MustLoveBeagles]

37. Thank you

[Codifer]

22. I am so gawd damn disgusted.

Has our country become so fucking clownish, rude, stupid, uninformed, uncaring and, did I mention, rude already? We have, as a people, become this fucking stupid during the last sixty years and I figure that it may take another 75 to 100 years to correct if we started today.... and we won't.

I do not blame the schools, they do what they can with what little support they get. But they must compete with media and the "information age" social media.

awwwww.... fuck it.

[Catherine Vincent]

23. Judging by the comments,

I'm glad I didn't watch.

[Irish_Dem]

28. Same here. I would have blow a gasket or start throwing things at the TV.

Doing an Elvis.

[LeftInTX]

54. I didn't watch either. We don't have cable.

[chowder66]

25. I think he handled it well. Now if we could all just ignore everything negative in print from the so called press.

[PatrickforB]

27. Nice rant, and totally righteous!

To drop a few F bombs - fuck these fucking fucks...fuck!

[MOMFUDSKI]

30. I told my husband that I hoped Biden had

his Irish up for the presser. Husband, who is a real cool head, said no. Said Joe isn’t made that way. Something to admire. I wanted blood.

[Rhiannon12866]

32. I saw that! Shocking and disrespectful...

[redqueen]

34. The fourth estate has been worse than useless for decades.

Media concentration in corporate hands is a huge problem.

[DENVERPOPS]

47. Qualified estimates are

that 95% of all media in the U.S.....Newsprint, magazines, Network TV, Cable, RW Radio, Fox News are owned by uber rich Republican Oligarchs......If you are someone who works for any of them, you know what you need to write/broadcast to keep you job.....

[Evolve Dammit]

60. And yet the "liberal media" label goes on. Orange Boy calling out MSNBC for

Revenge. Things will get really ugly really fast if he gets anywhere near the WH. And if he doesn't I expect he will call for widespread violence as prison looms for him at that point.
Wake me up when it's over?

[DENVERPOPS]

79. I sincerely believe

that 2024 will be unlike any other nightmare this nation has experienced since this country was founded.

Likely scenario if Trump Wins................

Likely scenario if Biden Wins................

Either way, the acting out will be catastrophic.......

[Evolve Dammit]

80. Agree completely. They will attempt to burn it all down. Armed and ready to receive couched orders.

[BaronChocula]

36. The press is afraid by default

Joe Biden represents progress. The Florida Rapist and Insurrectionist (along with all other Republicans) represent the Old White American Order. The OWAO gets away with much more than progressives because that's the way it's always been and because representatives of the OWAO are vindictive. The press is afraid of the Old White American Order. That is why Trump has received breaks all of his life.

[BigmanPigman]

39. Obviously you were eavesdropping

on me in my kitchen as I heard the first 3 minutes and had to turn it off or I would have broken my TV. Every other phrase that I yelled was "Fuck You Assholes!!!!!" or "You pieces of sh*t!!!!!".

I HATE those mother f*ckers so much that it is harmful to my mental health. I got financially scammed and my stress has been over the top for 72 hours. I couldn't take this shit from the press for a nanosecond longer without have a mental collapse.

[Jack-o-Lantern]

40. It was a reporters riot...

It almost seemed like a setup, did they up the volume as the questions were so rudely shouted out so as to overwhelm the president’s soft sincere voice? And how DARE they bring up Beau's passing. A pack of jackals the lot of them!

[stollen]

41. Like screeching chimps

The media did its reputation no favors today. Reminded me of Murdoch press chasing Diana.

[dalton99a]

42. Kick

[CousinIT]

45. He called on that infected anus Steve Doocey first...and I liked Biden's answer to...

..Doofus's question: "How is your memory?"

Biden: "It's bad enough that I forgot not to call on you!" (paraphrasing, this is from memory) - it was perfect snark for the moment from that Doofus idiot.

[Skittles]

48. male body parts are not needed for courage

certainly not *THE* most delicate body part

[orangecrush]

56. As a long retired martial artist

Who knew and occasionally spared with some high ranking female martial artists (and now lives with one), I can attest to the truth of your statement.

[LuckyCharms]

59. Very true. I'm just using that phrase as a colloquialism.

Here...have a heart.

[pansypoo53219]

50. BUTBUTBUT BIDEN DOESN'T GIVE THEM RATINGS! SQUIRREL!!!

democracy? meh.

[Lovie777]

51. And yet there he was in a room full of screaming yelling ...................................

bold face people. He stood there and responded. That's a person of courage. That's a leader.

[betsuni]

52. As if this was the hot hot hot breaking news history-altering scandal of the decade.

[C Moon]

55. The media is seeing the election head toward a washout, so they have to make it closer.

They don't give a damn about the U.S.
Corporations are a cancer.

[LeftInTX]

57. I still can't get over it. They turned this into sensationalism.

Like they got the report just before the news. I was totally shocked!!! Never in my life had I heard anything like it. It came out of nowhere.

Then someone started harassing me about how I felt about it......
Person accusing me of being a Republican because I was shocked, sad and upset.

I hope the media calms down and realize what a needless firestorm they created.
Usually I don't get upset like this.

I'm shocked.

[shrike3]

61. Fit the narrative beautifully. "Biden is too old."

[LuckyCharms]

64. All those emojis gave me a seizure.

[KS Toronado]

67. You OK now? They're gone.

[LuckyCharms]

68. I'm better now...

[KS Toronado]

65. this who I think it is?

[bestbeloved]

63. What the hell is wrong with people?

It is so obvious to me how vile the Tangerine Twit is, what reality are Trumpanzees living in?

[KS Toronado]

70. Welcome to DU

[RocRizzo55]

69. Not with a ten footer even! nt

[The Wizard]

71. News for profit

is akin to Russian propaganda. Trump gives them ratings that translates into advertising dollars.

[Ksout]

72. Expletive offensive

I agree totally with your sentiment, but am offended by your bringing Jesus Christ into this in your expression of disgust.

[LuckyCharms]

73. Too bad. n/t

[totodeinhere]

76. Thank you. I feel the same way.

There are also minors Fr who read this group and they shouldn't be exposed to such foul language. I agree with the sentiment of the op but I don't agree with his or her phrasing.
