A federal judge has blocked the Trump administration from banning journalists from CNN, MS Now, and Politico from White House events, saying the move likely violated the First Amendment by targeting outlets Trump personally dislikes. The ruling highlights that the ban appeared to be based on the president's complaints about negative coverage, not legitimate security concerns, and keeps press access in place while the legal case continues.
