How about on AF1 - definitely should be charged for that luxury.
First class rates.
FREE press doesn't mean free ride.

Good.
I hope they lose their luggage.
When you thing about it, having the same groups of people in the press room and on AF!, we are not getting diversity of reporting by the media. This is not good for a FREE press. It is reporting by a small group of elites.

Correct they do fly and do pay for it. However, traveling on AF! compared to have to deal with flying for an airline is night and day. On AF! you fly direct, no connections, no transfers, I'm sure getting through customs is a breeze.

Thanks for the correction.

Not even White House staffers get a free pass on AF1, at least not when it comes to meals. How does $20 for lunch sound?

What an opportunity for Trump to take a bunch of them out of the country and then "lose" them in customs on the way home!

The girl who used to handle the mic has resigned as a result.
Trump has hired a new mic handler - an old associate of his from his WWE days.
Hellooooooo Jim.

I still do not like it, let these people figure out another way. They treat a sitting President like dirt, the hell with them.

CNN dropped their lawsuit like they won ... when all they got was a 2 week temporary restraining order.
I suspect if Acosta gets out of line, or in a couple weeks it will happen again ....
