EXCERPT:
President Donald Trump said Friday that he is banning CNN, MS NOW and Politico from the White House in his long-running battle with news organizations he accuses of publishing false and unfair coverage.
“Media Outlets shouldn’t be able to constantly write or report FICTION and LIES when they’re covering the President of the United States, the Trump Administration, or the United States of America,” Trump wrote in a Friday Truth Social post. “Other Fake News Media Outlets to follow.”
Asked about the scope of the restrictions, Trump described the move as “a very simple ban.”
“I don’t want him in my office. I don’t want them here. I would say the ban would go as far as you can,” Trump told reporters.
Trump said Politico was targeted in part because the Biden administration spent $8 million on subscriptions, spending that Trump later canceled.
The targeted outlets pushed back. CNN said it stands behind its White House team and argued that implementing the ban would constitute “an illegal assault” on its constitutional rights.
