Trump: I Can Ban Any Journalist From The White House

"No journalist has a First Amendment right to enter the White House"

In answer to a lawsuit filed by CNN after the White House revoked one of the network reporter's press passes, the White House on Wednesday asserted that it can decide which journalists are given passes and which ones aren't.

According to a court filing by the Justice Department on Wednesday, White House lawyers say the president and his aides are the sole arbiters of who gets into the White House.

"The President and White House possess the same broad discretion to regulate access to the White House for journalists (and other members of the public) that they possess to select which journalists receive interviews, or which journalists they acknowledge at press conferences," lawyers say in the filing.

  6. Dave T: Lets get something straight for those who are dumb enough to be confused. It is not a first amendment right to be in a place of honor at the highest level of our government while acting like a complete ass. He demeanor is not only disrespectful, it's not becoming of any real media professional. Acosta aligns more as a political activist who pretends to be a journalist. And anyone who doesn't recognize this fact, is either on his side or maybe just legally blind. It is no secret that Acosta wants to become a liberal martyr. This matter has nothing to do with the First Amendment, and everything to do with the resistance movement.

  7. Yes. A Trump appointed federal judge has ordered that Acosta’s White House credentials be reinstated.

  11. 10:31 Am clearly you miss a lot, typical from SBY residents... The president and his aids, HAVE SOLE authority on who can enter the white hose or not... Should I write it like a 2nd grader or in hieroglyphics for you?

    For those who are as stupid as I know you to be, being banned from the white house is not a 1st amendment issue, no one is being stopped from speaking or saying what is on their mind, no one is stopping the press from printing what is on their minds or what they want to say, what the president did was ban a man who assaulted an aid, and said you can't come back, he can still report the news and write columns and the like, so explain to me how this IS a 1st amendment issue, and give me facts not your dumb-ass uneducated opinion...

  12. The credentials were ordered to be TEMPORARILY returned, at least until Acosta can appeal his case to the White House.
