Dear
@NikkiHaley
- last night u asked ? “Where was
@JoeBiden
when Hamas was attacking Israel and no one was doing anything?” I’ll tell you. He was getting an emergency appropriations bill thru Congress to replenish Iron Dome defensive missiles. Where were you?

I get frustrated with the narrative by some in the media that
@RepAdamSchiff
is experiencing his “24 hours of fame.” He’s developed the skills that we’re seeing now over an entire career in pursuit of justice as both a prosecutor and a Congressman. He was made for the moment.

Sarah - in the darkest moments in political history, there were people like you who covered for mendacity. They did so happily. But history, it turns out, has been unkind to them.
President Trump believes in a free press and expects and welcomes tough questions of him and his Administration. We will, however, never tolerate a reporter placing his hands on a young woman just trying to do her job as a White House intern...
