- White House staffers are "pretty p—— off" over the Trump administration's dismissive response to a video posted on Trump's Truth Social account, which depicted Barack and Michelle Obama as apes, according to Semafor's Shelby Talcott.
- The Trump administration initially blamed the video on an unnamed "staffer" who posted it without Trump's permission, but this explanation contradicts Trump's own words that only he and top communications aide Dan Scavino have access to his account.
- Pro-Trump figures like Bill O'Reilly and Mark Burns are calling for the staffer behind the racist video to be fired, with Burns saying he urged Trump to take action and "publicly condemn this action," as reported by Semafor and other sources.
JUSTICE MATTERS
The mainstream media sources, such as CNN and The New York Times, employ sanitized language and omit critical facts, whereas the leftist source, AlterNet, provides a more detailed and critical account of the Trump administration's actions. For instance, The New York Times quotes the White House press secretary dismissing criticism of the racist video as "fake outrage," while AlterNet reports that White House staffers are "pretty p—— off" over the scandal, highlighting the internal backlash. The mainstream sources obscure the severity of the issue by focusing on the deletion of the video and the White House's response, rather than the racist content itself and the administration's attempts to downplay it.
