> There’s a very famous photo of Obama, Biden, the Joint Chiefs, and National Security advisors in the White House Situation Room watching the raid unfold in real-time…

How convenient there was a photographer in the fucking situation room! Such a coincidence.



First, there's an official position: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chief_Official_White_House_Pho...

Secondly, why would it be a coincidence? You don't think... the people in the situation room knew something, perhaps a situation, was happening at the time?

Otherwise, why would they _be_ in the situation room? There's usually a situation going on.


Apologies for my ignorance. I didn’t think photographers were allowed into that room most of the time.


The WH photographer is always around taking pictures of whatever the president is doing; it's literally their fulltime job.
