Trump Bars Major News Outlets
1m
President Donald Trump barred CNN, MS NOW and Politico from the White House, prompting critics to say the move violated press freedoms and could face legal challenge.
Trump's panicking about the widespread revulsion against his Arch, and is trying to cloak it in national security to jam it through or go around the normal approval process.
It's even more important to stop it now, as a test case of not letting him use "national security" to justify illegal acts.

KARL: Do you support Trump banning news organizations because he doesn't like what they're reporting?
SCALISE: Look, Biden removed the press credentials from 400 agencies
KARL: That's not true. 400 reporters who had credentials didn't reapply. They weren't banned from the WH. That did not happen.

The law is that “Although the WH is not required to open its doors to the news media, once it establishes press facilities for credentialed journalists, it cannot deny access based on the content of a journalist’s coverage.” That's exactly what Trump is doing. joycevance.substack.com/p/its-a-nice...
It’s a Nice First Amendment You’ve Got There…
Mea culpa for the long post on a Saturday night, but read on and see if you don’t agree that it’s essential.

The White House Press Corps should just boycott the White House and stop covering Trump in solidarity with their colleagues. He would wither without any media attention.

The president banned reporters for asking questions. He can’t defend his record. And if you can’t take the heat, then get out of the kitchen.

Fox News is now defending CNN, which is obviously the smart thing to do. Even they realize the tides always turn. They said, “Don’t ban them. Or one day, they’ll ban us.” The MAGA movement is really falling apart.

The press is supposed to be able to scrutinize the government, EVEN when the president hates the coverage.
That’s Freedom of the Press!
Yesterday, Tapper made it clear that journalists aren’t simply going to stop doing their jobs because the president wants them gone.
That matters.
Well done, Jake!
