'Serious bad look': Bloomberg News reporter captions a Biden GIF from White House deputy press secretary

This all starts with a tweet by Washington Post contributor Tony Romm saying of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework, “I can’t believe we’re still saying BIF.”

i cant believe anyone ever said BIF

That tweet somehow caught the eye of White House Deputy Press Secretary Andrew Bates, who dropped in a GIF of President Joe Biden when he didn’t look like a walking cadaver:

What that tweet didn’t need was a caption by Bloomberg News White House reporter Jennifer Epstein:

Are you supposed to be a neutral reporter or have you given up on pretending?
