The Biden White House is up to its old tricks again, trying to hide the truth from the American people. In a shameless move, they deleted a heated exchange between White House Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre and a reporter from their official live stream. Can you believe it?
Simon Ateba, a correspondent from Today News Africa, took to Twitter to expose the White House’s discrimination against him. He accused them of violating his First Amendment rights by purposefully avoiding his questions for the past nine months. And you know what? I wouldn’t put it past this administration. They’ve made it clear that they only want to answer questions from reporters who toe the line and play nice.
The back and forth between Ateba and Jean-Pierre got so intense that the press secretary threatened to end the entire briefing. Talk about thin-skinned! It’s clear that the Biden White House can’t handle tough questions and would rather silence dissenting voices than engage in a meaningful dialogue with the press.
But the plot thickens when Ateba realized that the White House had conveniently deleted the video of their exchange from the live stream. How convenient, right? It’s almost as if they didn’t want the American people to see the truth about their discriminatory behavior. Thankfully, Fox News Digital stepped in and magically, the missing video portion was restored. It’s amazing what a little pressure from the right can do.
Of course, the White House was quick to come up with an excuse for their “error.” They blamed it on an encoder that feeds the live stream to YouTube. But do we really believe that? This administration has shown time and time again that they are not above manipulating the truth to fit their narrative.
On what some are calling the so-called chaos at the White House today, I was just trying to ask a question. It's a pity what's going on. How can @PressSec Karine Jean-Pierre preach about the freedom of the press when she is violating the First Amendment many died to protect? May… pic.twitter.com/wOBsOv6GwI

Ateba didn’t stop there. He accused the Democrat-run White House of blacklisting reporters they deemed “problematic.” If you dare to ask tough questions and make them uncomfortable, they’ll sideline you, ignore your emails, and refuse to let you ask questions in the background. It’s a clear attempt to intimidate and control the press, ensuring that only softball questions are asked and critical voices are silenced.
The Biden Administration claims to be committed to the freedom of the press, but their actions speak louder than their empty words. They can try to hide the truth, but we won’t let them get away with it. It’s time for the American people to see the Biden White House for what it truly is—a group of power-hungry individuals who will stop at nothing to suppress dissent and control the narrative.
