Their relationship with the president is not personal; their job is to report on who he really is, and provoking him to reveal himself lets them do their job even better. An insult is a confession in this context, and they might as well be field biologists documenting baboons doing baboon things.

Three things about the Witkoff tapes:
1) It appears Western intelligence services have decided to let Witkoff (and Trump) know they have recordings of their traitorous conversations w/Russia.
2) This Ukraine "deal" was all Witkoff's idea.
3) Congressional leaders should demand he be fired.

I just announced the No Kings Act, which will allow people to sue federal officers and agents for violating their constitutional rights In other words, if your constitutional rights are violated by Trump and his fascist regime, I'm helping you get made whole and get justice.
