The Daily Beast is a nasty rag and they proved that once again today.
Evita Duffy-Alfonso (@evitaduffy_1) ~ Terminal case of Trump Derangement Syndrome over at @thedailybeast today. Anyways, here’s Rosita and I this afternoon. 🌸☀️


Point of reference: If not already obvious, Evita Duffy-Alfonso is the daughter of Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy and the mother of this precious new life.
Secretary Duffy's daughter had her first child this week. A beautiful and healthy little girl and surely a blessing to the entire family. The Daily Beast couldn't even be gracious for one story. This is a headline about a baby.

Scarlett Johnson (@scarlett4kids) ~ Annabella Rosciglione is a very sick person. The Daily Beast sucks. You don’t dislike these “journalists” enough.
The author is a very sick person and the outlet for which she works is gross.
Sara A. Carter (@SaraCarterDC) ~ Exactly Evita !! Pure case of TDS and a splash of demonic possession.
You and baby Rosita are beautiful. God bless you both.
Bethany S. Mandel (@bethanyshondark) ~ This is honestly kind of shocking.
It should be shocking. There is no reason for a "news" outlet to behave this way over the birth of a child.
Joel Mowbray (@joelmowbray) ~ It's hard to think of anyone in politics who's less of a "goon" than @SecDuffy. I've known Sean at least a decade. Decent, honest & gracious are words his DEMOCRATIC colleagues in Congress used to describe him. He's also the perfect person to lead @USDOT at the dawn of AI.
The whole family are kind and admirable people. This headline was uncalled for.
Well, they're Democrat toe-suckers and ass-lickers, so ...
Isabel Brown (@theisabelb) ~ So, the media is running hit pieces on newborn babies now, I guess? 🫠 @evitaduffy_1, congratulations on your beautiful baby girl!
The Constitutional Conservative (@TheCCShowcast) ~ You don't hate the media enough. This is a disgusting headline about a new mother and her newborn baby.
Κασσάνδρα (@CassyIsCatholic) ~ Disgusting. Whenever someone has a baby, you should congratulate them or say nothing at all.
Laura 🅱️ellamie (@Bellagal7) ~ The birth of beautiful 🩷 Rosita overpowers the empty, evil darkness of the @thedailybeast exponentially… and eternally. Congratulations Evita! God bless your family. 🙏🏼
OH ... and then Grandma weighed in.

Rachel Campos-Duffy (@RCamposDuffy) ~ Haters gonna hate, Evita. They can’t rain in my parade. Rosita is perfect. And you are a beautiful mama!
As always, Grandma is direct, no-nonsense, protective, and classy.
