The White House doubled down on President Donald Trump’s attack on CNN reporter Kristen Holmes by bringing her children into the equation. The president, 80, raised eyebrows on Monday, August 17, during a Q&A at the Oval Office when Holmes, 40, questioned him about Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff. Holmes asked Trump for his response to Ossoff’s recent claim that he would rather “travel with your aide Natalie Harp and build the ballroom than do your job as president.” Trump asked her to repeat the person’s name who made the initial allegations, responding, “You mean Pee-Wee Herman? Pee-Wee Herman look-alike.” President Donald Trump Criticizes CNN’s Kaitlan Collins for Not Smiling The commander in chief claimed, “No, I would much rather do other things. We’re building a great facility here. We’re fixing a White House that hasn’t been taken care of.” Later on, Trump reprimanded Holmes, who was off camera, shouting at her to be “quiet” as he felt she was being “disrespectful” in front of a 10-year-old guest being honored at the event.

For Keke Palmer, the microdrama isn’t just another digital format. It’s a way to make the kind of comedy she’s been trying to bring back to Hollywood on her own terms. The multi-hyphenate entertainer has spent years building Lady Miss Jacqueline, the larger-than-life Southern belle she created for her 2016 digital sketch series “Southern Belle Insults,” into a character with a life beyond social media. Now, Palmer is using the bite-sized format to push the character into a more highly produced format, while giving herself a platform to showcase the character work she says traditional Hollywood has not always offered. “Microdramas take what we love about over-the-top soap operas and deliver endless histrionic moments, and that is right up Lady Miss Jacqueline’s alley!” Palmer said in an email Q&A with TheWrap. “Lady Miss Jacqueline has gone through multiple husbands and hostile takeovers. She is a walking soap opera.” Palmer expanded her digital series into an Audible original project, featuring voice acting from Sheryl Lee Ralph, Audra McDonald and Danielle Brooks, to name a few.  In promotion for her latest original “The Weddings of Lady Miss Jacqueline,” Palmer decided to create a three-part microseries “Southern Belle Insults: The Pre-Wedding Shenanigans of…
