President Trump’s transition team is no doubt busy picking potential White House staff officials for the next administration, but he shouldn’t bother too much with figuring out his next press secretary. In fact, it’s best that he eliminate the position altogether.

White House press secretaries are supposed to field inquiries from the news media and keep reporters abreast of administrative affairs, but that’s not how people see the press secretary’s job anymore, thanks to our godawful, not-dead-yet Washington press corp. Most people now know the press secretary as the official who stands at a podium almost daily and answers a series of mindless questions from reporters who hope to be seen on TV with a daring facial expression.

To wit, the most insufferable part of Trump’s first term by far was the daily press briefing. It’s how dopes like CNN’s Jim Acosta and PBS’s Yamiche Alcindor became somewhat household names. What’s supposed to be an informative and fairly blasé event was used by these freaks to get famous by asking stupidly confrontational questions every single day, including questions to the effect of “Why do you disagree with the Statue of Liberty?”

In 2017, Acosta literally quoted the text on the statue before accusing then-White House adviser Stephen Miller of “trying to change what it means to be an immigrant” by expecting foreigners to speak English and contribute meaningfully to society.

In 2020, Alcindor literally asked then-U.S. Surgeon General Jerome Adams to respond to nobodies on social media who pretended to

Legacy media spent months spinning former President Donald Trump as a “Nazi” and a “threat to democracy.” So when he won the election in a landslide, the media had primed leftists for the natural reaction: mental breakdowns and, potentially, violence.

As Trump gained on Vice President Kamala Harris across the board, the corporate media’s false confidence — which they also instilled in their listeners — began to dissipate. Videos of leftists breaking down in tears flooded X.

“Reddit Lies,” an X account, posted numerous examples of mental breakdowns on election night. Before the election, one user cited a recent poll by Ann Selzer (nonsensically forecasting Harris would take Iowa by storm) and predicted a blue wave come Election Day, which is laughable given the Trump landslide.

But as The Federalist reported, legacy media was pushing this poll to give Harris supporters false hope. This resulted in massive mental breakdowns for leftists when delusion met truth. 

One Reddit user purportedly divorced his wife for voting for Trump. Another, apparently a teacher of high school seniors, said two students had panic attacks by 8:30 a.m. the day after the election. Another user claimed to see a swastika on Chicago’s Trump Tower — but it was nowhere to be found.

The breakdowns also took a darker turn. The platform’s “Suicide Watch” thread has been flooded with comments about suicide due to Trump’s victory. A father of autistic children said he attempted suicide, and others made similar claims.

Georgia voters in Athens-Clarke County ousted their disgraced left-wing prosecutor who oversaw traitorous sanctuary city policies where 22-year-old Laken Riley was brutally murdered.

Athens-Clarke and Oconee County District Attorney Deborah Gonzalez lost to Independent Kalki Yalamanchili, who received roughly 60 percent of the vote, Fox 5 Atlanta reported.

Gonzalez, a self-described “progressive,” was first elected in 2020 after receiving backing from left-wing billionaire George Soros. Gonzalez was at the center of recent recall efforts spurred by residents who are angry that Gonzalez and other county officials allowed “illegal aliens to freely roam our county,” according to the Athens-Banner Herald.

The county (and country) was shaken to its core when Riley, a nursing student at the University of Georgia, was brutally murdered while on a run on a wooded trail near her school. Authorities arrested Jose Antonio Ibarra the next day. Ibarra is an illegal immigrant who arrived to the states from Venezuela in 2022.

The Athens City Council passed a resolution in 2019 welcoming immigrants “of all statuses,” according to Fox 5 Atlanta. The city released a memo in December of 2023 stating Athens-Clarke County supports “undocumented” immigrants. Further, current county policy states the sheriff’s office will not enforce a 48-hour detainer for Immigration and Customs Enforcement, according to Fox 5 Atlanta.

“[If a] detainer is issued but is not accompanied by a federal warrant or court order signed by a federal magistrate or federal judge, [the illegal migrant] shall not be held solely on the ICE detainer,” the policy
