New York Times journalist Maggie Haberman brushed off Trump's twin tirades on Truth Social by boosting the sold-out book he scolded.

In a post on X on Saturday, Haberman broke her silence after Trump posted two lengthy posts complaining about her book Regime Change, which she co-wrote with fellow New York Times journalist Jonathan Swan.

Trump complained that Haberman and Swan's book didn't congratulate him for doing a "great job!" and instead included embarrassing scenes from his second administration. Haberman simply pointed out that her book is sold out and publishers plan to restock copies....

Trump bawled in a lengthy Truth Social post that journalist Maggie Haberman's latest book didn't praise him enough.

Haberman and fellow New York Times journalist Jonathan Swan co-wrote the book Regime Change, which details the second Trump administration. It features scenes like Trump supergluing gold Fabergés in the Oval Office, his cabinet freaking out over the Epstein files, and how his White House bedroom was littered with fast food wrappers.

In his Saturday Truth Social post, Trump lamented that "there's no, 'Gee, he won, he did a great job!' There's no saying, 'Maybe we were wrong about him, the people were right' or, maybe, 'Congratulations, we wish you Great Success for our Country!'" He ended the post with a long string of all-caps sentences....

A New York Times reporter detailed how good the Trump administration is at keeping secrets.

"There is this phrase that they use, 'We're the most transparent administration ever.' Trump says it all the time," Swan said. "It's a complete canard. When they actually want to keep secrets, they're very good at it."...

First Lady Melania Trump fought against Trump's overhaul of the White House and lost, according to commentators.

During an episode of the Daily Beast Podcast, host Joanna Coles and Hugh Dougherty, the executive editor of The Daily Beast, went over more revelations in the book Regime Change, an account of the Trump White House by journalists Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan.

Last year, Trump paved over the Rose Garden. According to Dougherty, the book reveals that the First Lady's team relayed that she was "very unhappy" with the changes, and only secured a few compromises, like getting Trump to keep the rose bushes....

One of Trump's own cabinet members compared him to his liberal nemesis, according to a new report.

In the book Regime Change, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is revealed to say that Trump is the same as billionaire liberal donor George Soros, according to reporting by The Guardian.

"Trump reminded him...of his old boss, the legendary investor and major Democratic donor George Soros," reads a passage of the book shared by The Guardian in which Bessent speaks to his associates. "'They are the same animal,' Bessent said."...

A high-profile ex-CNN anchor singled out the insider said to be the "biggest leaker" in the Trump White House.

Don Lemon said during an interview with Legal AF host Michael Popok that Vice President "J.D. Vance is like the biggest leaker of them all" in the White House based on what "many people have said and according to some of the reporting."

Lemon and Popok were talking about Trump's efforts to hunt down the insider who leaked details of a "freakout" in the Situation Room over the Epstein files. The freakout is detailed in the forthcoming book Regime Change by New York Times reporters Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan....
