Reporters from three major news organizations — CNN, MS NOW and Politico — were denied access to the White House on Saturday, a day after President Donald Trump said he was barring them because of reporting he found to be "fake news." yahoo.com/news/politics/arti…

Why is the President censoring the press? Trump dragged the US into a forever war, and he's increased the cost of everything from gas to groceries. Trump wants to hide his failures. Voters will hold him accountable.

The move could pose another First Amendment test for the Trump administration, which has faced legal challenges over its efforts to restrict press access based on an outlet’s coverage. Read more from Ebony Davis: ms.now/news/trump-ban-ms-now…

Presidents with nothing to hide don’t ban reporters. But this President is historically corrupt—so he has a LOT to hide. Stand up for the Free Press. Every leader should condemn this.
Trump: "I am proud to announce that, effective immediately, I am banning Fake News CNN, MSNOW, and Politico ... from the White House as a result of their constant 'reporting' FAKE NEWS!"

Trump doesn't care about rising gas prices, because it doesn’t affect him or his rich friends. But for families trying to afford rent and groceries, it's everything.

The House impeached Trump after the January 6 insurrection but the Senate didn’t convict. Meanwhile Trump had "the audacity to release convicted felons who assaulted police officers out of prison,” Senator Mark Kelly says at #TAF26.

President Donald Trump said Friday that he is "banning" CNN, MS NOW and Politico "from the White House." The president said it was "effective immediately," but there was no indication his administration had taken any steps to follow through. cnn.it/4ri29Iy
