Cancel The White House Correspondents' Dinner

First of all, Krasnov is an enemy of a free and open press. He has banned organizations from the daily briefings. He has banned journalists from the Pentagon.

There will be no comedian hosting the event. The person who was scheduled to emcee the event was yanked because of an anti-Krasnov social media post of hers.

I hope no one watches it, it will be a joke.

And form an organization of journalists who actually support the first amendment, and aren’t afraid to speak truth to power, including making jokes about the powerful.

Membership initiation in this organization will require the member to post or share on social media a joke about the current administration with the hashtag #firstamendment.
