🚨 BREAKING: A FEDERAL JUDGE JUST BLOCKED TRUMP’S WHITE HOUSE MEDIA BAN.
CNN, MS NOW and Politico must have their White House press passes restored immediately.
The temporary restraining order will remain in effect for 14 days while the lawsuit moves forward.
Judge Timothy Kelly said the outlets had met the legal threshold for temporary relief and found the administration’s justification lacked factual support for the national-security claim.
The Trump administration had argued that White House access is a privilege and cited national-security and professionalism concerns.
The news organizations argued the ban violated First Amendment and due-process protections.
Now the court has temporarily forced the access back open.
The legal battle is far from over.
