As MS NOW and CNN reporters were reentering the White House grounds, MS NOW’s Peter Alexander, seemingly emotional, proclaimed, “This is a lot to try to digest.” He continued, “And honestly, as a point of personal privilege, this is like striking to me because this was my routine for most of 14 years going in. You know, you engage with those lower press, those wranglers. I never saw the White House Counsel, as you note, come down. I guess that would have been very feasible if there was an order and an urgency on a matter of this kind, certainly, with a Chinese president, America's foreign adversary, largest rival in the world, on the White House soil. But this, it's just stunning the way this has all been playing out."

And now, as of 12 PM Eastern, the long national nightmare is over as MS NOW employees are allowed back into the White House grounds. After talking to Laura Barron-Lopez, now inside White House grounds, Peter Alexander then wondered if the continued barring of reporters in the morning was deliberate or a “lag in the computer system.”

MS NOW reporter Laura Barron-Lopez continues to make herself the story, as she described herself as “nervous” when trying to get into the White House earlier today. While she spoke, a video played of herself walking down the street near the White House (?) before or after she was denied entry.

Amid MS NOW and other outlets still not being allowed inside White House grounds, MS NOW fill-in host Erielle Reshef continued the doomy feeling of the network and asked the NYT's Peter Baker, “Is the damage already done? Has it already sort of left a trail of fear for journalists about reporting on this president, or will there be that resolve to continue to report without fear or favour?”

Thursday’s Morning Joe devolved into a conversation that made fun of Republicans for talking about transgender athletes playing in women’s sports. Willie Geist minimized the issue before Joe Scarborough said the GOP has a "raging current of beta": “You almost get this sense when you go into their Senate offices. These Republicans have like the Rocky Horror Picture Show going on and Sweet Transvestite playing in the background because they are obsessed! There's so few trans athletes, but it's like all they think about. ‘Honey, I'm sorry, this is a great meal, but I'm just thinking about trans.’ No, it's like, what's wrong with them? Like there is such a there's such a raging current of beta. Like just a reservoir of beta maleness underneath this Republican Party. I don't get it. I really don’t.” Geist continued the “beta” talk: “Being beta is the foundation of the movement. You have to bow to the emperor. You have to do and go along with whatever he says, and that's what we're seeing. But this is a strange obsession. I'm not going to raise any speculation, but I feel just made me feel bad for the mascot at Auburn.”

Scarborough later asked Adrienne Elrod why Republicans are “obsessed,” as they talked more about… furries. Elrod then said, “We can almost predict that around this time every election cycle that Republicans, because they haven't done anything for the American people, are going to start diverting, trying to divert our attention to the transgender issue.” She then called it “pretty much a non-issue” and “bizarre and strange” Near the end of the discussion, frequent guest Mike Barnicle exclaimed, “I want to go home.”

WATCH: @KristinDavison calls out CNN journalists to their faces, saying they’ve shown they don’t care about the American people because they’ve spent an hour talking about themselves and nothing else.... “Well, you know, I think that this President has probably been one of the most effective in terms of working the press and using it to his advantage. So, we’re 36 minutes into this program, and we haven’t mentioned the American people once. What does this do to them? We are sitting here in a D.C. bubble saying the poor press, we can’t go in, and that is why we talk about trust and how White Houses trust press corps is. The American people don’t trust the press. And why is that? Because we’ve just spent 40 minutes talking about how bad the President is and how, you know, this is a — we are the victims, and that can’t be the case. We have to go broaden that, and I think, to your point, we’re talking about how this could be a negative, that we’re not capturing the arrival of the Chinese president today. That might be a benefit in some of these places, right? If you’re running for office in the Midwest or in some of these places, you might be okay. That there’s not a glowing image of President Trump and President Xi today. So, there is — I do believe that we have to look a step beyond now. I don’t know the legal part of it. Fortunately, I didn’t go to law school, but thinking through — that will all work itself out. To your — to your point, your arguments, I’m talking about the political part of it and the fact that right now, yes, the approval rating is down. The press approval rating and trust is even worse. And why is that? Because sometimes we forget the connectivity there, and that is what Trump has been so effective at doing. We’ve now spent the entire time talking about this and not about his approval rating, not about gas prices, not about diesel, not about the election.”

At a ‘Status’ event earlier this month, MS NOW President Rebecca Kutler was asked, “Do you view yourself as a progressive network?” Kutler previously stated in the prolonged interview that MS NOW was a “pro-democracy” network. Kutler’s response said the network employs former RNC chair Michael Steele and former Bush Communications Director Nicolle Wallace, two former Republicans who now bash Republicans on their respective shows, which means, therefore, MS NOW should not be called a progressive network.

Later, Darcy asked the President of MS NOW if far-left Twitch streamer Hasan Piker was blacklisted from the cable network. Kutler claimed there was no ban, as she dodged most of the question and turned it into how she was “really proud” that people like Piker and Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) wanted to appear on the network (even though they are, seemingly, not invited on).

“Who are you at this point, Ro?!” This was a long overdue clash. CNBC’s Joe Kernen CALLS OUT grifting Democrat Congressman Ro Khanna over his constant flip-flopping as he tries to appease the socialist wing of his own party. Kernen even told Khanna he would no longer be his wingman if he planned to run in 2028. Good. No one else has held Khanna’s feet to the flames over this, but Kernen did an incredible job here. He kept hammering him over and over. These were some of the best lines Kernen dropped: - “Lately, I’ve looked…I still love you, but I’ve looked at some of your comments and I wonder…I hardly knew this man, apparently.” - “I’m just wondering, are you this reasonable capitalist that represents silicon valley and a friend of technology? Or are you some DSA spouting nut job that hangs out with Hasan Piker and and backs the guy in Michigan and in Maine?” - “Who are you at this point, Ro?!” - “What happened to the Democratic Party?” @JoeSquawk is quickly becoming one of the most sane voices in all of mainstream news.

Preview of Status’s and Zeteo’s opinion on this topic:
Welp. According to Semafor, David Ellison has discussed bringing Elon Musk on as an investor in Paramount's merger with Warner Bros., which could mean Musk could have a stake in CBS News and CNN. semafor.com/article/09/23/20…
