President Trump has now fully fulfilled his promise to ban three legacy media outlets from the White House over their constant lies. And one of these outlets is particularly peeved.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, President Trump on Friday announced on Truth Social that he had banned CNN, MSNOW, and Politico from the White House for constantly reporting “FAKE NEWS.”
Trump also warned that other fake news media outlets would be next.
“I am proud to announce that, effective immediately, I am banning Fake News CNN, MSNOW (who recently changed their name from MSNBC due to lack of viewership and credibility!), and Politico (The recipients of an illegal and ridiculous $8 Million Dollar subscription, an All Time Record, directly from the United States Government, under Crooked Joe Biden, in order to keep them “alive.”),” Trump said.
Trump’s decision to ban CNN, MSNOW, and Politico from the White House will almost certainly spark a legal battle.
Earlier this morning, CNN and MSNOW reporters were denied and had their press badges confiscated by the Secret Service.
Now, one can add POLITICO to the list.
Jonathan Greenberger, POLITICO’s Global Editor-in-Chief, fumed as he announced that ‘reporter’ Cheyenne Haslett had been banned from entering the White House and had her press pass confiscated.
Greenberger also teased that there would be more steps later.
“A few minutes ago, our colleague Cheyenne Haslett attempted to enter the White House to do her job as a POLITICO reporter, “Secret Service denied her entry to the complex and confiscated the pass that allows her access to the White House,” Greenberger wrote.
“We stand by her and all reporters here covering the White House,” he continued. “As we said yesterday, we will vigorously defend our First Amendment rights.”
“We’ll have more to share on next steps later.”

When asked for a response regarding the incident, the White House referred POLITICO to Trump’s comments from the day before.
