Demoted VOA reporter Patsy Widakuswara (@pwidakuswara) is back on White House beat, as of today.
She was reassigned last week after asking pointed Qs to Pompeo and the then VOA director about Trump & US standing in the world. VOA director & deputy replaced yesterday.

New acting VOA chief Yolanda Lopez replaced some newly named top editors; she is said to be fiercely protective of her WH reporters.
I suspect @pwidakuswara will get T shirts bearing rebuke by newly ex VOA Director Robert Reilly:
“You obviously don't know how to behave”
