As is often the case on Saturday mornings, President Donald Trump woke up frustrated and turned to Twitter to vent, directing his anger at his favorite foil: the media.

In a series of tweets, Trump targeted the Washington Post, late night hosts, and NBC News.

It appears Trump was referencing a Friday Washington Post story about the increase in small-dollar donations to the Republican party thanks to Trump’s base.

He then criticized late night hosts for favoring Democrats and suggested Republicans should have equal time on late night shows.

Trump also continued to lash out at NBC News after the outlet reported that Secretary of State Rex Tillerson called Trump a “moron” and considered resigning.
