When POTUS says, "Next question," she takes the mike to the next person.
Just don’t allow any questions from CNN until they learn some respect for the Office
Blatantly illegal ruling. Totally so. PDJT should instruct security to block this jerk’s entry into White House . Judge should be immediately removed from hearing cases. Dangerous judge. Doesn’t know or follow simplest law
Trump, F that damn judge.
Looks like this judge has made up his mind. This needs to be appealed.
Replace press briefings with Trump’s tweets.
Okay, pass under escort, give him new seating assignment.
BETTER YET, CALL ALL PRESS CONFERENCES. Trump can get word out elsewhere.
Outrageous that a judge says government must let obnoxious, disruptive, and hostile member of press in the building. KICK THEM ALL OUT.
This judge was appointed by Trump, according to reports.
You cannot yell Fire! in a crowded theater or Look at Me! in a presidential news confrence
Okay here is what I would do.
Let Acosta ask as many questions as he wants. Do not call on any other reporter than Acosta. Freeze out everyone else for a few briefings.
Jim Acosta makes a lot of noise asking questions along the line of “Do you agree with my hopelessly skewed perception of you?” Yes, and have you stopped beating your wife/husband, Mr. Acosta? These things perform no good service to public discourse, to the contrary, they shut down germane questions from other reporters and keep news from being reported, which I suspect is the purpose of this exercise. Acosta becomes the news, and frankly, Jim Acosta’s effect on the lives of the public is confined to whether he reports the news or prevents news from being reported.

“where a journalist’s fifth amendment right to due process would apply to a case like this”
Oh? I recall that a certain SCOTUS pick was not afforded that because “this isn’t a trial”, or whatever the talking point was.
How the hell does 5th amendment anything play into this?
“White House that there is no first amendment right to come onto the White House grounds. HOWEVER once they do open up WH grounds to reporters but denies others, first amendment comes into play.
Wha? Huh?
So that means that during WH tours, I have the right to walk into any room, and hold a protest? Do you have the right to keep and bear arms too?
Press passes have just joined abortions and gay marriages as fundamental human rights. Who knew?
They don’t have to let him have the mic or call on him for questions. Just ignore him.
Like its being reported now? lol
But, if press briefings at the White House are cancelled, how will the Trump Administration be able to get out the good news of all the wonderful work it has done for the American people?
Fireside like chats. 1 hour with the Donald broadcast from oval office.
Thanks for the reminder of that. :-)
It is not a press-freedom case, as the phony fraud WSJ says!
