If there's anyone who needs coffee, Tom Hanks believes it's a White House press corps' reporter.
He bought an espresso machine for the entire stable of White House reporters because "those poor bastards" need it, the actor said Friday on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.

Hanks did the same when George W. Bush and Barack Obama were president, but there are a few hints that this time, the espresso machine was purchased with a bit more meaning.
First, there was the note he sent along with the machine.
"To the White House press corps," Hanks wrote. "Keep up the good fight for truth, justice, and the American way. Especially for the truth part."
The administration of Donald Trump, as you may know, is known for peddling lies and falsehoods that are easily disproved.
Hanks also said that, while these reporters need caffeine, the greater danger during this administration may be spitting coffee onto their clothes after each eye-popping thing the White House does.
