confirms that White House has suspended the hard pass of a reporter because it doesn't like the way he does his job. This is something I've never seen since I started covering the White House in 1996. Other presidents did not fear tough questioning.
My late father was a career Navy man who spent a lifetime making sure that sailors and Marines were as safe as could be and treated with dignity. I have no doubt that Master Chief Buckley would have stood with Captain Crozier's shipmates to applaud him.

Bob was a regular on the

Shocking and devastating. The nicest guy. A talented comedian. At one time no one was on TV as much as Bob. I find this incredibly hard to take in. We have always had Bob. Bob Saget Dead at 65
