The Washington Post‘s Congressional reporter Rachael Bade deleted a tweet of her and other reporters at the paper, wishing everyone a Merry Impeachmas.
The reporters look happy and joyful as Congress debated and voted to impeach President Donald Trump.
Here is a screenshot of Bade’s tweet.
The reporters with Bade:
- Paul Kane – Washington Post congressional reporter
- Karoun Demirjian – Washington Post national security reporter on Capitol Hill
- Seung Min Kim – Washington Post White House reporter
- Mike DeBonis – Washington Post Congressional reporter
The tweet received a lot of criticism. I should have liked more of them on Twitter because I knew she would delete the tweet. But I caught one from a fellow journalist:
What the hell were you thinking when you tweeted this? Some of us still care about ethics and unbiased reporting, and this garbage makes it harder for all of us by reinforcing a stereotype. Come on guys.

Bade decided to delete the tweet…four hours after she posted it. Bade included an excuse, but people saw through her.
I’m deleting a tweeting tonight that is being misinterpreted by some as an endorsement of some kind. To be absolutely clear, we at the Post are merely glad we are getting a break for the holidays after a long 3 months. I will retweet the group photo w/ a better caption !

The Washington Compost just like the new York Pravda are propeganda rags lying through their teeth all seven days a week
BUT HE WAS SMIRKING! How could they not celebrate, Trump was Smirking as he entered another packed to the rafters rally last night.
Is this some of that unbiased media that has been fairly covering the entire spying, investigating, lying, accusing, impeaching goings on?
The Post has hated America and lied with Cronkite about “Ugly Americans” for at least 71 years. New owners but same hate mongering.
I lived across the river from DC in ’48. It was clear the KGB was writing the “news” for the Post. I knew not what KGB was in ’48 but I knew hate!
Nancy Pelosi,Michele Obama,AOC and Maxine Waters the Screeching Harpies
@an ol wx Jarhead: Well, you can’t blame WaPo for celebrating; that what all the ill-informed, liberal zealots are doing. They celebrate putting an asterisk beside Trump’s name; in the end, that’s all they cared about, thinking (despite all the evidence) that Trump cares about anything but the things he is getting done.
They need to keep make up these hollow victories…for headlines…and it’s rather entertaining to watch the pond dry up as these fish have fewer and fewer placed to go.
I always hoped this virulent strain of Leftism would eventually be kept in check by it’s own conduct, and that’s what’s happening.
