Things at the White House have taken a turn for the incredibly awkward lately.

This incident is certainly doing nothing to change that.


White House correspondent Brian Karem recently noted the lack of reporters on site. But that doesn't mean nobody was around to listen to the President or get updates.

Brian was there, after all. Brian and a big fat cockroach.

Welp, it's a correspondent's job to report the on-the-scene details ... so Brian reported.

The pest problem in the White House has been well documented.

Since 2017 we've seen roaches, rats and at least one mouse fall from the ceiling onto reporter's heads.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.
