I think the President of the US responding to a question about the murder of a journalist with "A lot of people didn't like that gentleman" is probably pretty bad.

NEW: The White House intervened on behalf of accused sex trafficker Andrew Tate during a federal investigation.
“It was so offensive to what we’re all here to do, to uphold the law and protect the American people,” one official involved said.

Federal authorities were chided for seizing electronic devices from Tate and his brother, and told to return them, records and interviews show. Experts said the intervention was highly inappropriate.

Great reporting by @zackbeauchamp.bsky.social, but, wow, he offers disturbing evidence that the boundary between mainstream conservatism and right-wing extremism, which "has long been more porous than many think," has perhaps never been thinner.

I think Americans are realizing that democracy is a participation sport, and the the government is ours if we want it to be. I feel like we got complacent and hoped some other third party would do the work for us. Seems like we have to learn that lesson every generation.

I mean, look, I'm not a reporter, so who am I to talk?
But on a day where the president both just called a woman reporter "Piggy" and is celebrating someone who had people bone saw apart one of my colleagues, I might just be a little ready to defend my colleagues and profession.
But that's just me

Covering Trump as a weak, desperate man would be a huge change for the press corps, which still mostly treats him as a masterful bully who can get away with anything.
But there are precedents for the press corps turning on a president who they formerly lionized.
