Journalists in the White House press corps covering President Joe Biden’s administration habitually steal insignia items from Air Force One, four people told West Wing Playbook. The looting reportedly grew to such a degree under Biden’s tenure that the president of the White House Correspondents’ Association, NBC correspondent Kelly O’Donnell, issued a “terse reminder” that stealing from Air Force One is not allowed, several individuals who saw the off-the-record email confirmed to Playbook.None of the members of the press corps reportedly responded to O’Donnell’s email. Items allegedly stolen include:

I had zero respect for these “journalists” before this story. Now, I’m in the negative. If they play loose and free with AF1 property, what else are they playing loose and free with regarding facts? Pigs.

There's a simple solution - serve the press corps on dixie paper plates with plastic glasses and utensils - no logos or anything else. Blankets and pillowcases should be plain as well - no logos. It would probably save money and fuel - plastic and paper weigh less than china and metal.

Why is this a story? This has been going on for decades. Reporters were taking items off AF1 when Nixon was president. These items are souvenirs from flying on AF1. Not every reporter gets to fly AF1, and when your allowed to do so, it's a big deal.

It's easily stopped. Stop making special plates and other things for AF1 . Everything on the plane has the Presidents seal or a White House symbol on it. Right down to the candy wrappers and peanuts. Stop spending all that money on White House monogrammed items and just us regular plates and cand bars and napkins.

Revoke their press passes. Call their employers and tell the employers that these people are not allowed in the White Hose or on the plane anymore; send different reporters. If the thievery continues, pull the next bunch of press passes, and so one until the stealing stops.

Everything on AF-1 is US Government property. Stealing US Government property is either a felony or a misdemeanor crime depending on the item’s value. To end that apparently routine situation the Air Force or the White House should establish a restricted website open to people riding on AF-1 where they could purchase pieces of the US Government property that is now being stolen. At least then either the Air Force or the White House could make a profit when the items are purchased, rather than a loss every time an item is stolen.

Joe Biden gave a brief softball interview to Al Roker on Monday prior to the Easter egg roll at the White House. Can we still call it an "Easter egg roll" when they forbid any religious designs in their egg design art contest? So they're effectively eliminating any real recognition of the holy day in the contest. Roker asks what's Biden's message about why they should get out there and vote. He gave Biden the opportunity to campaign. Talk about the bias, it's all evident here with this. The network should give the Republicans equal time. Biden's answer was a slurring mess. (X Video)

During his opening monologue on NBC’s Saturday Night Live, host Ramy Youssef appeared to be mostly sincere when he said he wants a “trans woman” to occupy the White House. He later mocked Trump supporters and asked God to “free the people of Palestine.” Youssef’s opening coincided with President Joe Biden recently declaring Easter Sunday as “Transgender Day of Visibility.” “I really think our next president should be a woman. You know what I mean?” Youssef said to enthusiastic applause from the live audience, adding, “I think our next president should be a trans woman.”

If you thought that the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge was the real disaster, you aren’t familiar with the government. Stephen Green at VodkaPundit notes that, “Could it really take twice as long and four times as much money to replace the collapsed Francis Scott Key Bridge than it did to build it in the first place? The Key Bridge was built at a cost (adjusted for inflation) of about $200 million. Replacing it could take a decade and cost $400 million to $800 million dollars, according to experts in what has become a dismal field.” It’ll get worse before it gets better. And that’s assuming that it ever does.

The White House moved Sunday to make public its best wishes for Christians in the wake of an earlier furore arising from President Joe Biden embracing Easter Sunday as “Transgender Day of Visibility.” A statement from the White House was issued to that effect, saying the power of Christ’s Resurrection is honored in the observance of Easter: Jill and I send our warmest wishes to Christians around the world celebrating Easter Sunday. Easter reminds us of the power of hope and the promise of Christ’s Resurrection. As we gather with loved ones, we remember Jesus’ sacrifice. We pray for one another and cherish the blessing of the dawn of new possibilities.

There are few more joyous places for a Christian at Easter than northern Europe's tallest and largest Gothic cathedral in the city of Cologne.[SNIP] Perhaps we should not be surprised. In Britain, Windsor Castle hosted its first Iftar last week, with permission from King Charles, the Supreme Governor of the Church of England. Guests feasted on coconut milk and dates in the grounds before a private tour of the State apartments. Westminster Abbey, meanwhile – a Christian site for over 1,000 years – flew the national flag of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, with the Muslim crescent and star, to mark 'Pakistan Day'.

There have been a lot of bad anarchist actions over the years, but one of the ongoing places continues to have issues from activists agitating against what they call "Cop City" in Atlanta.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Today, U.S. Senator Alex Padilla (D-Calif.), Chair of the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration, Citizenship, and Border Safety, and U.S. Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D-Ill.), Chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, led 17 Senate Democrats in requesting administrative relief for undocumented immigrants.

Livermore, Calif. — Most fast food workers in California will be paid at least $20 an hour beginning Monday when a new law is scheduled to kick in giving more financial security to an historically low-paying profession while threatening to raise prices in a state already known for its high cost of living. Democrats in the state Legislature passed the law last year in part as an acknowledgement that many of the more than 500,000 people who work in fast food restaurants are not teenagers earning some spending money, but adults working to support their families. That includes immigrants like Ingrid Vilorio, who said she started working at a McDonald’s shortly
