On Sunday's #Mediabuzz 11 ET:

Robby Soave said that the media are just "unfamiliar" with seeing disagreements such as the one between Donald Trump and Elon Musk because these usually happen behind closed doors, and while it's "messy", it is healthier for the public to know what their policies are, unlike the Democratic Party that "never discussed them in public". He added that Elon Musk is learning that "money can only get you so far" and that while his goal was to shrink government "no amount of spending seems to get you that."


Annie Linskey called the battle between Donald Trump and Elon Musk "extraordinary", saying the two are "showmen" with a "high tolerance for risk". She said she doesn't believe the Democratic Party will embrace Musk the way they did pre-Trump but that the "most eye-opening" post he made was one suggesting the idea of a third-party, one of the posts he hadn't deleted. Linskey added that a "silver lining" in Musk's criticism of the Big Beautiful Bill is that once his initial remarks became personal attacks on the president, that undercut his ability to stall the bill.


Sarah Bedford said that former White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre “doesn’t have a lot of credibility right now at all” for her “visible” role in covering up Joe Biden’s decline, adding that the negative coverage of her break with the Democratic party contrasts with those “welcomed as heroes” for breaking with Trump. She also said that there are “echoes” of the 2020 George Floyd riots in the media’s portrayal of the Los Angeles I.C.E. protests, and that coverage of mistakenly deported Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was returned to America this week, has been “atrocious from the beginning” for portraying him “as a Maryland father [and] a Maryland resident” despite having originally entered the country illegally.


Lucy Caldwell said that Karine Jean-Pierre, who calls the Biden White House “broken” in her new memoir, is “an imperfect messenger” with an “important message” about the country’s “broken political system,” and that part of the reason for the “muted” coverage of Trump’s executive order paving the way for an investigation of Biden’s use of the auto-pen is due to the Democrats having a “Biden optics problem.” She also said that Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who is back on American soil after being mistakenly deported, had been sent to El Salvador by “a corrupt Trump administration that was sending people off to supermax prisons in foreign countries and claiming that once you’re on the plane, whoosh, our ability to do anything has gone away.”
