Trump Threatens to Ban POLITICO, CNN, and MS NOW From White House Access

President Donald Trump announced on Truth Social that he would ban reporters from POLITICO, CNN, and MS NOW from the White House, citing their coverage as "fiction and lies." The move follows a long‑running feud in which Trump has previously restricted access for outlets such as the Associated Press and has taken control of the White House pool rotation. POLITICO said it would continue to report fairly and defend its First Amendment rights, while CNN warned that the ban would be an illegal assault on constitutionally protected journalism. MS NOW declined to comment. The threat raises questions about the limits of executive power over press access and could prompt legal challenges.
