Reporters who put pronouns in their email signature and think they’ll get a response from the White House have another thing coming. Why does it matter? Because if you can’t live in reality, you can’t be trusted to report on it—especially when it comes to Donald J. Trump, our President. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt knows that. So your email will not be answered, sir/ma’am.
Journalists are supposed to deal in facts, not fantasy. If you’ve got preferred pronouns parked next to your name and expect the world to play along, you’re signaling that reality isn’t your strong suit. So, no—the White House will not answer your email. I’d applaud them if they would move it to the spam folder.
Want to be taken seriously? It’s simple: drop the pronouns.
The pronoun police rightfully corrected Anderson Cooper’s bigotry. If CNN doesn’t fire him after this, there simply is no justice left in this country!! pic.twitter.com/4DMgoLDXvX

The above X embed obviously isn’t the White House, and Anderson Cooper will never pass for Karoline Leavitt, thankfully. Still, I wanted to put it in this blog post to remind you that these people are serious about their preferred pronouns.
Naturally, not everyone’s thrilled about Karoline Leavitt’s new policy. Enter The New York Times, criticizing the decision to ignore emails with pronouns in the signature.
The New York Times disparaged the policy in a statement to Fox News Digital, saying it was an excuse for evasion.
“Evading tough questions certainly runs counter to transparent engagement with free and independent press reporting,” a spokesperson said. “But refusing to answer a straightforward request to explain the administration’s policies because of the formatting of an email signature is both a concerning and baffling choice, especially from the highest press office in the U.S. government.” – Fox News
Oh, that’s rich—coming from a liberal outlet that’s spent more time covering Joe Biden’s bike rides and ice cream orders than holding him accountable. If you’re ready to ask the tough questions, just do us a favor: ditch the pronouns in your email signature first. It’s not that hard. Ask away. I am most confident that our dear Karoline Leavitt will have an answer for you. Maybe you just don’t want to hear that answer if you even had a decent question.
These people clinging to preferred pronouns aren’t just playing politics—they’ve abandoned reality altogether. They actually believe there are more than two sexes (which they dress up as “gender”) and want the rest of us to play along. They’ve swapped science for ideology and expect you to nod and comply.
It may seem harmless—just a pronoun, right? But this is how it started. And now, here we are in 2025, knee-deep in absurdity, because too many people were too polite to call it what it is: nonsense.
And remember this very serious nonsense for our military? Goodness gracious, I remember when this video first popped onto the scene and thinking, “This can’t be real.” But oh, it be real. I wonder if it is still being used today in training? I doubt it, if Pete Hegseth has anything to say bout it.
At the end of the day, Karoline Leavitt’s decision to enforce this policy is a reminder that credibility matters. It’s not about punishing reporters for their personal beliefs; it’s about ensuring that those who hold the microphone are grounded in reality. By making this stand, Leavitt is pushing back against a culture where ideology often trumps facts. If reporters want to be taken seriously, they’ll need to leave the performative nonsense behind and focus on the truth. Otherwise, don’t expect to be part of the conversation.

Gotta love Leavitt…no nonsense on her watch !
Not to mention that she’s far easier on the eyes than her predecessor, Side-show Bob..
If I have to list my personal pronouns in my signature block in my messages to you either there’s something wrong with my ability to communicate, or more likely, I think that there’s something wrong with you. Unless you or I are the subject of the message, personal pronouns are irrelevant, other than as an attempt to aggrandize one’s inflated ego.
