White House press access restored for CNN, MS NOW, and Politico by federal judge FAST-MOVING

A federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to restore White House press credentials for CNN, MS NOW, and Politico following a ban imposed by the President. U.S. District Judge Timothy Kelly issued a temporary restraining order granting the three media organizations a 14-day reprieve, ruling that the revocation of their hard passes likely violated constitutional due process rights because they were not provided adequate notice.

Judge Kelly rejected arguments from the Department of Justice that the ban was necessary for national security, noting that the President’s initial justifications focused on the negativity and perceived lack of truthfulness in the outlets' reporting rather than security concerns.

While the court order restored access to the White House grounds, tensions remain regarding presidential travel. CNN was reportedly excluded from traveling on Air Force One for the President’s trip to Tennessee, a move that has raised further questions about the stability of the traditional television pool system. Major networks including ABC, CBS, NBC, and Fox News had previously suspended their participation in the presidential pool in solidarity with the affected outlets, though joint pool coverage of presidential activities resumed on Friday.
