Reporters for CNN, MS NOW and Politico were blocked from entering the White House complex Thursday morning, hours after a DC federal judge ruled President Trump’s ban on the three media outlets was likely unconstitutional.

In an eight-page order, US District Judge Tim Kelly told administration officials to immediately return reporters’ press passes that were confiscated Saturday and blocked enforcement of Trump’s ban for 14 days.

However, an unidentified Politico journalist, CNN correspondent Betsy Klein and MS NOW reporter Laura Barrón-López were denied entry after presenting themselves at a Secret Service checkpoint.

I don’t yell at or curse people. You too. Calmly talk to them to start with. Always give a man a chance to re-think his position.

He speaks for me. Coming back with an arrogant, aggressive answer when your entire indefensible premise leaves you with only an attack strategy, against windmills.

It’s difficult to appear to be ignorant and pathetic in a single post.

You've succeeded over several posts. I was never in the military. A man tried to steal my truck and had "...multiple hits in both legs." according to the ER when the police were interrogating me. I am not a keyboard warrior and have absolutely no remorse for what happened. Is that similar to military or LEO experience or do I need more training?

A judge can’t force Trump to allow certain people into his home.

This is the President’s home. How can anyone force him to accept certain “guests” into his residence?

So much of American law has devolved into the Administrative State, where constitutional rights disappear and yield to administrative discretion. Anyone can declare him or herself to be a reporter and demand entrance to the White House if such a legal right exists. IMHO, POTUS can invite or exclude any person he wishes at the White House. At some point, separation of powers must mean that judges can’t tell POTUS how he runs the White House under Article II, or who may attend his conferences. Typically, POTUS wants to have all major media outlets broadcast his press conferences, but there is no requirement that he do so.

Rarely do I post except to provide independent or personal data on engineering or scientific posts.

WTF does ‘did you serve” have to do with this discussion? I was 4F but boarded into the army 1971 (had to convince a panel of O6s and above to take a chance). Years later DA Personnel tried to convince me to go RA. Missing digits and hearing ‘cause of service. Not eligible for VA benefits ‘cause I’m so damn good at my professions I retired before age 50.

If you can’t debate on the points, please go away.
