President Donald Trump said he is banning CNN, MSNOW, and Politico from the White House.
“I am proud to announce that, effective immediately, I am banning Fake News CNN, MSNOW (who recently changed their name from MSNBC due to lack of viewership and credibility!), and Politico (The recipients of an illegal and ridiculous $8 Million Dollar subscription, an All Time Record, directly from the United States Government, under Crooked Joe Biden, in order to keep them ‘alive.’ Seems like corruption to me!) from the White House as a result of their constant “reporting” FAKE NEWS!” Trump wrote on Truth Social Friday.
The move will likely be challenged in court, as a judge ruled last year that the White House cannot bar Associated Press reporters and photographers from the Oval Office, Air Force One, and other spaces for journalists.
Trump said he plans to ban more media outlets soon.
“Media Outlets shouldn’t be able to constantly write or report FICTION and LIES when they’re covering the President of the United States, the Trump Administration, or the United States of America,” he said. “Other Fake News Media Outlets to follow.”
