While the legacy media whines about press access, President Donald Trump is busy doing exactly what the American people elected him to do: getting things done.
On Thursday afternoon, the 47th President signed a new round of executive orders from the White House—continuing his unprecedented pace of action to dismantle the administrative state and restore American greatness. And predictably, the mainstream press corps is more concerned about their precious "access" than the substance of what this President is accomplishing.
Actions Over Access
Pool reporter Abigail Hauslohner of the Financial Times fired off a note complaining that the 2pm signing was "closed to the press, despite multiple requests" for access. The White House, she lamented, provided "no guidance" on the content of the executive orders.
Here's a thought, folks: maybe this administration is focused on results rather than performing for cameras. What a concept.
Remember the Biden years? That administration was happy to give the press all the access they wanted—to nap time, ice cream runs, and stumbling press conferences. Meanwhile, the southern border was wide open, inflation was crushing working families, and America was a laughingstock on the world stage.
A President Who Works
President Trump has signed more consequential executive orders in his second term than most presidents sign in four years. From securing the border to unleashing American energy to dismantling the woke bureaucracy, this is a commander-in-chief who understands that the American people didn't send him back to Washington to hold photo ops.
The details of Thursday's executive orders will emerge in due time. What matters is that this President—unlike his predecessor—shows up every single day ready to fight for the forgotten men and women of this country.
The mainstream media can keep crying about access. Patriots know what's happening: America is being put first again.
