Federal Judge Orders Trump to Restore CNN and Politico White House Access

A federal judge ordered President Donald Trump to immediately restore White House press access for CNN, MS NOW, and Politico, ruling his ban likely unconstitutional and a violation of due process. Judge Timothy Kelly, a Trump appointee, issued a temporary 14-day order after finding the administration denied the outlets fair process. Trump had banned them last Friday, claiming they spread "fake news," while his lawyers argued the move protected national security. Trump attacked Kelly as "disloyal" and vowed to appeal. The ban sparked widespread backlash, with major networks suspending joint coverage of presidential events, while critics warned of a chilling effect on journalism.
