Since the “Let’s Go, Brandon” incident, the media has been repeatedly accused of reframing news or rewriting words to benefit the President or the Biden-Harris Administration. This week, the White House Press Office and various media outlets like Politico and MSNBC have been ridiculed for denying that President Joe Biden called Trump supporters “garbage.” It has created a weird dissonance as Democratic politicians denounced what the White House and many in the press denied was said. Now, the White House Press office is being criticized from a new quarter for the clean up on aisle three: the Director of White House Stenography, Amy Sands. The White House stenographers objected to the rewriting of the transcript by the Biden White House staff to suggest that the President was condemning Trump’s rhetoric, not his supporters.
The President’s attack on Trump supporters was nothing new. Leaders like Hillary Clinton called them “deplorables,” and Biden himself has described their views as a return of the confederacy and the rise of fascism. Democrats have called the movement a modern form of Nazism and an effort to destroy democracy, round up homosexuals, and create internment camps.
The problem was the timing. As Harris was denouncing Trump for name-calling and insisting that Democrats are bringing the country together (while condemning Trump as a modern version of Hitler), Biden was literally behind her in the White House, calling tens of millions of Trump supporters “garbage.”
Fox News reportedly obtained an email in which the supervisor sounded the alarm on the White House press office’s “breach of protocol and spoilation of transcript integrity between the Stenography and Press Offices.” Sands went on to say that
“if there is a difference in interpretation, the Press Office may choose to withhold the transcript but cannot edit it independently. Our Stenography Office transcript — released to our distro, which includes the National Archives — is now different than the version edited and released to the public by Press Office staff…After last night’s process, our team would like to reiterate that rush drafts/excerpts the Stenography Office sends to assist the Press Office are not intended for public distribution or as the final version of the transcript. Please avoid sharing rush drafts/excerpts, which are subject to review and might create confusion among staff, media, and the public while our Stenography Office completes a thorough review process.”
The White House was criticized for adding an apostrophe to the President’s comments to change the meaning of the key line.
After the statement, there was an immediate clean-up effort by Politico White House bureau chief and MSNBC host Jonathan Lemire, who was accused of changing the language by saying that “Biden, in a Zoom call with the organization Voto Latino, said ‘the only garbage’ was the ‘hatred’ of Trump supporters who said such things about American citizens.”
Lemire was widely ridiculed. For many, it sounded like another “Let’s Go Brandon” moment. He later turned to the apostrophe spin: “The full Biden quote from the Zoom tonight, which is being taken out of context.” Accompanying the text is a screenshot of a transcript that has Biden saying: “The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporter’s — his — his demonization of Latinos is unconscionable, and it’s un-American.”
The spin would have been more convincing if many of these pundits were not at the same time insisting that a line from a comedian delivered at a Trump event should be attributed to Trump (despite his later condemnation of any such view). It would also be more credible if Biden had not spent much of the last four years portraying the Trump movement as a new confederacy (before it was reframed as the new Third Reich).
When asked about the internal objections, White House spokesperson Andrew Bates only repeated the prior statement: “The President confirmed in his tweet on Tuesday evening that he was addressing the hateful rhetoric from the comedian at Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally. That was reflected in the transcript.”
However, Fox noted that it remains “unclear … whether the transcript the White House cites is the one that was altered and released to the press or the final transcript that was sent to the National Archives.”
Other reporters now admit that Biden said what he said but describe it, as did CBS News anchor Norah O’Donnell, as “a gaffe by President Biden where he, in his explanation, inadvertently called Trump supporters garbage.” The “inadvertent gaffe” ignores years of portraying Trump supporters as seeking to return the United States to the Jim Crowe period or pursuing a neo-Nazi future.
While various Democratic politicians have denounced Biden’s statements and Harris has said that she strongly disagrees with them, diehards like MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell mocked those who were critical as “some of the worst” or just ungrammatical journalists:
“To do so, they had to refuse to listen to the actual sentence Joe Biden spoke. They had to refuse to look at the written words of that sentence. They had to refuse to understand English grammar. They had to refuse to understand what a singular possessive is. They had to refuse to understand what apostrophe ‘s’ means. They had to refuse to remember what they learned in elementary school about the English language.”
It appears that the non-partisan, career stenographers who recorded the interview contemporaneously are also on that “worst” list of ungrammatical morons.
The mainstream media is now dismissing the entire matter as just the placement of an apostrophe. Yet, many of these same voices were supporting a full-fledged investigation into the transcript of the Ukraine call during the Trump Administration over “the use of ellipses.”
I was critical of that call and supported calls for an accurate transcript, particularly on such a weighty issue. However, back then, the accuracy of such transcripts was accepted as of paramount importance. Whether it is a matter of foreign or domestic policy (or an apostrophe or ellipses), the public should be confident on the accuracy of White House transcripts, as stressed by Sands in her internal objections to the White House Press Office.
One of those objecting to the use of the ellipses was Lawrence O’Donnell.
It appears that one person’s punctuation is another person’s punch line.
Jonathan Turley is the Shapiro professor of public interest law at George Washington University and the author of “The Indispensable Right: Free Speech in an Age of Rage.”
It’s plain to see that most women voting for Harris are one issue voters. That issue is about abortions that they are still getting and no they’re not being performed in dark alleys using coat hangers. The best opinion about abortion that I’ve ever heard was spoken by Dave Chappelle. Dave said; “If they can kill em why can’t we abandon em.”
Trump wants the issue decided by the voters of each state. That aligns with the Constitution. It also shows he wants more democracy, not less. Kamala would nuke the filibuster and pack the Supreme Court … all to have abortion decided at the federal level in the most extreme way.

“I will go and take out Trump tonight.”
– Maxine Waters
Typical politician. All words and no follow through.
There’s never been a positive comment by a Trump supporter in these comments… ever. It’s all about what they hate. Constant hate. Constant negativity. They love Trump because he pisses off the people they hate. That’s the whole ball of wax of Trumpism.
Total BS. You’re projecting. We love Trump because we love America and we love life. Trump’s track record shows he’s good for both. We do hate certain things like war, cancer, drug addiction, corruption and slavery. So there’s that.
You think anyone who disagrees with Trump is evil.
No. just ignorant or stupid.
Anonymous, nothing positive about Trump you say. I can recall posters saying things like low inflation and no wars. All anyone has to do is read your post to know that all the negativity sprouts from your nimble little fingers. Do you ever make any sense.
No truer wrods have been said this campaign season. Trump supporters are garbage. No, sewage.

Hey you! So I just got home and sitting with evening meal and reading the professor’s column and then posted my comment. Then I went back and read other comments –and I see that we both were thinking the same thing. So I would like to apologize to you. I seldom read anonymi, so it took me a bit to understand but you deserve an apology. You apparently awakened with a sharper mind than I. yours truly, lin.
There is a correlation between Kamala’s probability of losing and troll comments saying Trump supporters are garbage. Those comments are the primal scream of a corrupt and dying regime. All good people should take heart as they become more frequent.
There is a reason why they are not talking about the bad jobs report right now. Today’s race to the bottom is being spearheaded by Democrats / MSM lying 25/8.
THE EMPLOYMENT SITUATION — OCTOBER 2024
Total nonfarm payroll employment was essentially unchanged in October (+12,000), and the
unemployment rate was unchanged at 4.1 percent, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported
today.
These measures are higher than a year earlier, when the jobless rate was 3.8 percent, and the number of unemployed people was 6.4 million. (See table A-1.)
Among the major worker groups, the unemployment rates for adult men (3.9 percent), adult women
(3.6 percent), teenagers (13.8 percent), Whites (3.8 percent), Blacks (5.7 percent), Asians
(3.9 percent), and Hispanics (5.1 percent) showed little or no change over the month. (See
tables A-1, A-2, and A-3.)
Among the unemployed, the number of permanent job losers edged up to 1.8 million in October.
The number of people on temporary layoff changed little at 846,000. (See table A-11.)
The number of long-term unemployed (those jobless for 27 weeks or more) was little changed at
1.6 million in October. This measure is up from 1.3 million a year earlier. In October, the
long-term unemployed accounted for 22.9 percent of all unemployed people. (See table A-12.)
Both the labor force participation rate, at 62.6 percent, and the employment-population ratio,
at 60.0 percent, changed little in October. These measures have shown little change over the
year. (See table A-1.)

Love your concern about this, Turley. Especially after your thoughtful op Ed about how trump referred to the whole country as a garbage can. Ummm…, wait never mind.
On a more serious note, since every single day brings further evidence of just how much trump followers ARE garbage, the real story here is why the administration feels like it has to clean up Biden’s comments?
They should be apologizing for the fact Biden didn’t go further and actively point out the white supremacy issues involved with being a trump supporter. Except instead of referring to ‘trump supporters’ he should’ve referred to them as racist f#$k widgets. Because clarity matters. Party on!!!

it appears the Left has successfully undermined every once sacred institution in our nation. No one will believe the election results. If Trump wins, the Left will most certainly pull a repeat of 2020 coast-to-coast “burn it all down” ala Seattle-Portland-Minneapolis-Richmond et al
Biden’s handlers & MSM should be held accountable for destroying the USA with their lying, manipulation, abuse of power, failure to cooperate with US House GOP, violating the US Constitution and US laws, and unleashing havoc with their planned open US Border policies.
EWell, you got a conundrum. Do you vote for a rapist and pal of Jeffrey Epstein? Or do you ignore the rare instances of voter fraud and vote for Harris and normalcy?
Bill Clinton is not running, Harris is an idiot, I’m voting Trump and because I was once a registered Democrat, I’m voting twice!
Jonathan: Joe Biden’s temporary gaffe–calling DJT supporters “garbage”–does not tell the whole story. But it has caused outrage among conservative pundits like you. It’s all hypocrisy. Unlike DJT, Biden never once denied aid to Republican areas devastated by hurricanes in Florida or elsewhere. DJT delayed $20 billion in federal aid to Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria. He tried to block aid to California after the devasting wild fires. He only relented when an aide told him Orange County has more DJT supporters than Iowa. DJT even denied millions in wildfire relief to Washington state because the state’s governor criticized him. Joe Biden has never done that!
There is only one candidate in this election who sees wide swaths of America as “enemies” and “vermin”. There is only one candidate who endorses Tony Hinchcliffe’s statement at MSG that Puerto Rico is “a floating island of garbage”. Neither Biden no Harris have described the island that way. They have both condemned that characterization. In fact, Harris has made it part of her campaign to appeal to DJT voters to vote for her.
No matter how you try to parse Joe Biden’s words you come up empty. Harris wants to unite people, not divide them which is the essence of DJT’s campaign. That’s the real “punch line” you missed!
Not true. Democrats would love to see “MAGA” republicans expunged from the face of the earth. They make no secret of this.
Dennis – you are clueless.
Biden’s remark did NOT cause “outrage”
It just confirmed what the majority of americans know that democrats think about them.
Biden’s “Gaffe” was Once again, “saying the quiet part out loud”.
You went into maximum outrage mode because Trump repeated a claim made multiple times, that some Haitians were eating cats and dogs.
So Trump “defamed” a subset of a tiny group of people and you went into full bull moose loon mode.
So here we have Biden defaming half the country – and to you this is just a minor gaffe.
BTW what is a “temporary gaffe” ?
A gaffe is a faux paux.
Do Biden remarks come with a memory hole option ?
Can you flip a switch and the remark disappears.
“Biden never once denied aid to Republican areas devastated by hurricanes in Florida or elsewhere.”
Correct, Trump did not either.
What Biden DID do is waste massive amounts of FEMA money on illegal immigrants
While you can argue that had NO effect on aide to NC or FL – though most people do not see it that way.
But even if you were right – it STILL is clear that the lft would rather spend a fortune on people that have no actual right to be here.
They are not citizens, they are not even legal immigrants, and if Biden/Harris had followed the law – they would not be here.
and they would not be costing us all Billions of dollars.
Regardless the inhabitants of NC are looking at what went to illegal immigrants and the problems they are having getting aide
and it is clear to them what the Biden/Harris’s priorities are.
You can argue whatever you want. You can Argue Biden/Harris’s FEMA choice were legal or just according to budget – THEIR Budget.
What you can not get arround is that Biden/Harris prioritize illegal immigrants ABOVE US citizens.
“There is only one candidate in this election who sees wide swaths of America as “enemies” and “vermin”. :
Keep playing games with works – just like Biden is trying to clean up his own remarks.
Americans KNOW who Trump is talking about – in fact he is quite Clear.
He is talking about those in our govenment and those outside, who are abusing govenrment power against political enemies.
“the Enemy within”, the “Vermin” are the very people who think that half of americans are “garbage”.
While technically YOU are not “the Enemy within” – YOU are perfectly happy calling everyone who disagrees with you “garbage”.

No matter how hard you try – you can NOT come up with Trump ACTUALLY maligning half the country.
Though it is pretty trivial to find him maligning the far left.
“There is only one candidate who endorses Tony Hinchcliffe’s statement at MSG that Puerto Rico is “a floating island of garbage”.”
No Dennis – there is NO candidate that endorsed that.
HinchCliff was Boo’d by the audience and said in the moment – that joke bombed.
Trump was not onstage at the time. Did not even hear the joke until much later.
At nearly the same time – George Lopez was making a joke at a Walz Rally that if Trump did not build the wall in one day,
that mexicans would steal everything overnight.
There is actually a difference – there is a tiny amount of ambiguity about what Hinchcliff insulted – was it puerto rico, or puerto ricans or puerto ricos government ? There is zero doubt that Lopez insulted mexicans.
“Neither Biden no Harris have described the island that way.”
Your own comment demonstrates the fact that the remark is ambiguous – you said Biden has not described the ISLAND that way.
Lopez insulted MEXICANS – not MEXICO.
“They have both condemned that characterization.”
As has Trump. It was a bad joke and even those at MSG condemed it in real time.
Unlike the Lopez insult.
“In fact, Harris has made it part of her campaign”
Correct Democrats constantly take remarks out of context, attribute them to people other than those that said them,
Require Republican candidates to spend all of their time condemning over and over anything bad anyone has ever said.
I know that you are clueless, But Trump is no more required to spend an hour after every pro trump event – including ones he was not at,
listing every bad thing anyone has said, and then condemning it.
I listed SOME of the many insults of Trump supporters – or often just ordinary americans
“And it’s not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or antitrade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.”

It is remarks like this that lead the people of Western North Carolina to beleive that FEMA and the Biden administration do not give a schiff about them.
Obama, Clinton, Biden, Harris – care far more about radicals in the mideast or criminals from central and south america, than US citizens.
If Harris wants to unite people – then she can get behind the policies that super majorities of people WANT.
Almost no abortions after 21weeks.
Voter ID.
Only Citizens voting.
Secure and trustworthy elections
A secure border.
A government that cares more about its citizens than Palestinians, Ukrainians, central americans, south americans.
Only biological women in womens sports and lockerrooms.
No more stupid govenrment policies and spending that drive energy and all other prices up, that destablize the world,
No more unnecescary wars
It is no accident that almost 80% of the country thinks that our government is headed in the wrong direction.
YOU did that Dennis – or more accurately you and all those who voted incompetent left wing nut idiots into office.
And YOU are calling the 80% of americans that think YOU f#$ked up garbage
Joe Biden promised to “unite americans” – he did not even try.
You do not seem to understand – people want more than words.
How d you unite the country ?
Easy. Do not do stupid things that at best have only half the country supporting them.
When in doubt – DO NOTHING.
As Adam Smith said
Little else is requisite to carry a state to the highest degree of opulence from the lowest barbarism, but peace, easy taxes, and a tolerable administration of justice; all the rest being brought about by the natural course of things.
Leave people alone
Do not spy on catholics.
Do not engage in lawfare against political enemies.
Do not spend money we do not have over the objection of half the country.
Do not shutdown the economy over bad public health policies repudiated by history and every competent epidemiologist outside of government.
Stop FORCING people to live as YOU want.
The FACT is that most Trump supporters have not been active in politics before.
They have not cared whether democrats or republicans ran the country.
Or they did not care until Obama F#$ked things up and FORCED on everyone bad left wing nut policies
But as Bad as Obama was – Biden/Harris are far worse.
Uniting the country is easy – quit throwing bombs at everyone.
Quit trying to FORCE everyone to live as you wish.
One of the problem that conservative politics has is that at its core it just wants to leave things alone.
This is not very exciting, and most people do not rush out to vote for – leave things alone.
Contra Obama most people do NOT want to fundimentally change america.
But they have been content – or atleast not motivated to vote – Until Obama, and then Biden/Harris turned everything they touched to schiif
And they have to touch everything.
You keep ranting about uniting the country – YOU are the one dividing it.
I see Harris signs saying we are not going back.
YES WE ARE – we are taking a small step back to sanity.
And this terrifies you. Because it will work.
Trump has to do very little to have an incredibly successful presidency.
Undo the stupid Biden/Harris policies.
End the war in Ukraine – which is easy if your ego is not tied to removing Putin.
End the mess in the mideast – which is easy – return to policies of containing Iran.
Seal the border – as it was under Trump.
Quit F#$King with the economy – it will recover fine on its own.
After that – do as little as possible.,
And as Smith said prosperity will come all on its own, and the overwhelming majority of people will be happy.
If a democrat says it, you can easily assume that it is a lie. Problem solved.

This is my mentality as well. It’s tragic, but the DNC has not uttered a single fully true statement since prior to 2008; in 2024, they are literally making things up whole hog, seemingly out of thin air. It is something to behold. I did not used to be so cynical, but if the modern DNC is talking in 2024, you can bet they are lying on one level or another. It is fair, after their demonstrable behavior over the past eight years, to simply disregard them out of hand. And understand they really earned it, this isn’t any kind of partisan nonsense. They almost worked hard for it, and continue to do so.
I hate Democrat lies. That was absolutely evil of Harris to lie that FEMA relief was being withheld in North Carolina. yet, it just disappeared from the headlines 2 days later, mostly because she just told more lies. Her latest lie is that there’s massive fraud in Michigan and that she has evidence. Of course, just like her thousands of past lies going back to 2016, she has zero evidence.
I love how the GOP is latching on to Biden’s trash comment. Yes, he likely meant that (as much as his senile self can actually say what he means).
However, I propose a Turley Blog Poll — Would you all rather be called “trash” or “vermin”?
I know I would rather be called trash.
Of course, Trump vowed to “root out” his political opponents, who he said “live like vermin” as he warned supporters that America’s greatest threats come “from within” — extreme rhetoric that echoes the words of fascist dictators like Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini.

Save me the faux outrage. You liberals can’t seem to wrap your mind around a very simple concept: Trump insults and denigrates the corrupt and dishonest politicians and power brokers making our lives worse. He never denigrates the American people. Biden-Hillary-Obama insult the American people, whom they govern and whom they were elected to represent. Even a liberal like Ana Kasparian understands the difference:
https://x.com/CitizenFreePres/status/1852071947145740726
He literally wants to use the military to root out the enemy within, and this guy things “he never denigrates the American people.”
I call BS on that. If your accusation is that Trump wants to use the military on the American people, prove it.

TRUMP: ‘I think the bigger problem are the people from within, we have some very bad people, sick people, radical left lunatics,’ Republican candidate tells Fox’s Maria Bartiromo
The context was voting on election day. Hence, AMERICAN PEOPLE.
Does this satisfy your request to “prove it?” He literally used those words a couple of weeks ago.
No. He didn’t say who he had in mind. The term “radical left lunatics” could mean almost anything. The context was rioting that destroys cities and costs lives. The most likely meaning, again from context, was Antifa leaders – in other words, the leaders of a terrorist organization that are actively engaged in terrorism. So . . . a far cry from saying half of America is garbage. Nice try, but ultimately unsuccessful.
80 million people in America are illegal aliens who could not have been legally admitted to become citizens, according to the American Founders.

Yikes dude. Too much peyote
Turley,
You said that Trump condemned his comedian’s line about Puerto Rico. But that simply isn’t true. He said it wasn’t a big deal:
“Now what they’ve done is taken somebody that has nothing to do with the party, has nothing to do with us, said something and they try and make a big deal,” Trump said, not specifying who “they” referred to.
“But I don’t know who it is. I don’t even know who put them in and I can’t imagine it’s a big deal. I’ve done more for Puerto Rico than any president, I think, that’s ever, that’s ever been president.”
https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-puerto-rico-remarks-hinchcliffe-1977054
If you are referring to Trump campaign senior adviser Danielle Alvarez later disavowing the line, then you must revise your article because Trump himself never condemned it. His campaign had to clean up after his failure to do so.
Professor Turley, especially in an article that focuses on the existence of a single apostrophe in a transcript, it feels very hypocritical to then be so imprecise. Please do better.
So a comedian Trump has never heard of, and whom he didn’t invite, and whose schtick is that he roasts literally everyone, insulted PR in a joke (which was one joke of many in which he roasted lots of people consistent with his schtick) . . . and you’re saying that is a big deal? You’re saying that’s somehow comparable to the President of the United States personally referring to half the American people as garbage?
Why would Trump have a “comedian [he] has never heard of” open for him at HIS CAMPAIGN RALLY?
In the words of our senile President, “Come on, man!”
I’ll tell you what — if Trump runs a campaign in which he schedules speakers “he has never heard of” to have primetime speaking gigs at his biggest event, how do you think that bodes well for running the federal government?
Perhaps the bigger issue – if you really think Trump doesn’t know this comedian – is that he is too old/senile/”demented” – to run an effective administration.
And of course it is a big deal – in no small part because HE NEVER APOLOGIZED FOR IT.
Wait, you think Trump is personally involved in the details of arranging these rallies? That’s a laugh! That would be like saying the president of AT&T is somehow responsible, or should know, of every person who is hired as part of a convention center presentation promoting AT&T products. It would be unreasonable to suppose Trump is aware or involved in the details of arranging his rallies. There are thousands of executive decisions that get made for even one rally, and he attends like two per day now. So it has nothing to do with senility or being old. Trump’s health is on display for the American public every day, as is Biden’s. I can understand how you would (reasonably) think Biden is senile, but attributing that to Trump is projection.
Wasting your time. Morons gonna moron…
He’s ultimately responsible. That’s how organizations and businesses work.
A mistake of this significance is the CEOs responsibility
Is that the best you got? Hahahahahahahaha!
“A mistake of this significance is the CEOs responsibility”
Now do Afghanistan, the border, a world on fire, crime, the economy.
Say it ain’t so Joe.
I am so confused. Should I wear a KKK hood or a swastika?
Alternate days! Certainly there’s something else we are guilty of as well for the crime of breathing.
Monday – KKK hood
Tuesday – Swastika
Wednesday – Carry a fasces (bundle of rods with axe projecting)
Thursday – Carry half of the above (to show you’re a semi-fascist)
Friday – dress in a garbage bag
Saturday – Carry a basket (filled with deplorable things)
Sunday – chillax, it’s the day of rest
LOL
* Dumpster fire it is.
OT: Yes, Trump said Liz Cheney should be in front of a firing squad.
Why not. He certainly has been. Would he do that? No. Would they? Yes.
Liar.
Yes, you are.
From Babylon Bee, sure signs you’re garbage (edited slightly by me):
1. You’ve had fewer than 11 Covid booster shots: Wow. You’re trash.
2. You’ve never burned an American flag: Do you even love democracy, trash-boy?
3. You do this weird thing where you pay for merchandise before leaving the store with it: What sort of festering bag of refuse does that?
4. You don’t try to load a shotgun through its butt during a photo-op: You disgusting rancid load of slop.
5. Your wife doesn’t have a boyfriend: Gross. How old-fashioned of you.
6. Your husband doesn’t have a boyfriend: Classic garbage move.
7. You don’t have pronouns listed in your email signature: Now your pronouns are Trash/Trash’s.
8. You don’t want to subsidize someone else’s gender studies degree: Gross — you’re so foul.
9. You judge people by the content of their character: Martin Luther King would be ashamed of you, racist.
10. You follow the laws, pay your taxes, provide for your family, contribute to society, and go to church or synagogue: Garbage is as garbage does.
Democrats lie. In other news, water is wet.
Film at 11.
Liked the reference to Kipling’s God’s of the Copybook Headings
I missed that. Where is it?
P.S. “God’s” = Gods.
