The media should be unbiased and focused on rigorous journalism. The reality is far from that.
Now a CBS host exposed how deep in the Democrats’ pockets she truly is.
CBS Host Encourages Democrat Governors to Fight Back Against Trump
CBS News host Margaret Brennan appeared to push for Democrat governors to challenge President Donald Trump during a heated exchange with New York Governor Kathy Hochul (D) on Face the Nation this weekend.
The conversation centered on a tense interaction between Trump and Maine Governor Janet Mills (D) at the White House last week.
Brennan, referring to a discussion about transgender athletes in girls’ sports, asked Hochul if Democrat governors were planning to coordinate legal action against Trump.
“Are you Democratic governors going to start to work together on this? Is there legal pushback?” Brennan pressed.
Hochul immediately went on the attack, accusing Trump of “flooding the zone” with legal challenges and policy moves.
“They’re attacking California when it comes to FEMA dollars,” Hochul claimed. “They’re filing lawsuits in Illinois, going after Maine on this, and they’re coming after programs that have been duly put in place in the state of New York.”
She accused Trump’s administration of using these actions to distract from his broader agenda.
“What they’re trying to do is create this theater of all kinds of activity that is trying to be a distraction to us,” Hochul said, before suggesting that Democrat governors need to stand their ground.
“When someone floods the zone in a football game, what you need to have is the defenders be very disciplined, smart, but also stand their ground. And that’s exactly what the governor of New York will do, in cooperation with our governors,” she declared.
Hochul made it clear that Democrats would not allow Trump to go unchallenged.
“We’re not going to sit idly by and let our rights be attacked,” she vowed.
While claiming a willingness to work with Trump on areas of common ground, such as infrastructure and immigration, Hochul made it clear that Democrat governors won’t be bullied.
“We’ll work with you when there’s common ground, no doubt about it,” Hochul said.
“Let’s build great projects and infrastructure. There are areas where we’re going to work with you on immigration and getting violent criminals off our streets. We do not dispute that. But don’t think that you can just come in and bully us around and not expect a reaction from governors.”
In other words, while President Trump focuses on protecting women’s sports, securing disaster aid accountability, and fighting illegal immigration, Democrat governors are more interested in banding together to push back against his policies.
