WaPo reporters celebrate ‘Merry Impeachmas’ – then tweet deleted

The Washington Post‘s Congressional reporter Rachael Bade deleted a tweet of her and other reporters at the paper, wishing everyone a Merry Impeachmas.

The reporters look happy and joyful as Congress debated and voted to impeach President Donald Trump.

Here is a screenshot of Bade’s tweet.

The reporters with Bade:

• Paul Kane – Washington Post congressional reporter
• Karoun Demirjian – Washington Post national security reporter on Capitol Hill
• Seung Min Kim – Washington Post White House reporter
• Mike DeBonis – Washington Post Congressional reporter

The tweet received a lot of criticism. I should have liked more of them on Twitter because I knew she would delete the tweet. But I caught one from a fellow journalist:

Bade decided to delete the tweet…four hours after she posted it. Bade included an excuse, but people saw through her.
