POLITICO will continue to fairly report on this White House and future ones. We will vigorously defend our First Amendment rights against any attempt to restrict them.
The claims that POLITICO received government subsidies are false and have been thoroughly debunked.
Breaking: Trump says he will ban reporters from POLITICO, CNN and MS NOW from the White House.

JL Partners — the pollster in the Reform donations scandal — carried out other polls where the funder was not declared.
The firm ran surveys in 2022 and 2024 Tory leadership races which received press coverage without disclosing who paid.
