New York Times White House correspondent Maggie Haberman became a household name for her coverage of former President Donald Trump's time in the White House, breaking some of the most defining stories of his tenure there.

In fact, Haberman's access to the Trump administration has even generated controversy in itself, with some in media accusing her of practicing "access journalism" and hobnobbing with the likes of presumed sources like Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner.


So it's safe to say that few civilians knew the inner workings of the Trump administration in more detail than Haberman.

This week, Trump issued a bizarre statement, one of many criticizing the Biden administration for a botched withdrawal of American troops in Afghanistan.

Trump wrote:

"First you bring out all of the American citizens. Then you bring out ALL equipment. Then you bomb the bases into smithereens—AND THEN YOU BRING OUT THE MILITARY. You don't do it in reverse order like Biden and our woke Generals did.

No chaos, no death—they wouldn't even know we left!"

Haberman responded with a wry observation.

Like Haberman, people saw flaws in Trump's ideal sequence of events.






The statement prompted a range of observations.

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.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

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.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves.
