Not exactly sure what took so long on this but the White House has finally suspended the “hard pass” press credential for CNN narrative engineer Jim Acosta following his rude behavior and physical confrontation with a White House intern earlier today.
Sarah Huckabee Sanders released the following statement:
“President Trump believes in a free press and expects and welcomes tough questions of him and his Administration. We will, however, never tolerate a reporter placing his hands on a young woman just trying to do her job as a White House intern. This conduct is absolutely unacceptable. It is also completely disrespectful to the reporter’s colleagues not to allow them an opportunity to ask a question. President Trump has given the press more access than any President in history.”

Not only does he deserve to be banned, he deserves to be fired. We’ll see how CNN reacts to his “male privilege” in the “Me Too” era.
Jim the accoster
Flush the turd.
Acosta assaulted an intern. Now he thinks he´s Bill Clinton.
Way less than what should be done to him. Way less.
Hallelujah everybody say cheese....
In the grand scheme of things, not exactly felony battery, but neither is Acosta the innocent lamb he's making himself out to be.
He did bring his left hand down across her arm as a motion to hit it away while holding on to the mic....she should of planted the mic in his face
with a left cross
Let everyday Americans ask the questions, being chosen from a giant Lotto ball tumbler.
The “reporters” do not have a single Constitutional Right to be there above that of any other US citizen.
CNN came out with a statement defending him and blaming POTUS for not protecting free speech or some nonsense. Lou Dobbs reported it tonight.
In the #metoo era, ANY unwanted touching by a male is verboten.
Time to make these asshats play by the same rules they demand
up ‘til this point 28 comments and not one funny pic of
the Little Napoleon of CNN
Maybe the white House should just suspend any and all “reporters” from CNN “until further notice”(aka Jan 21, 2015)
Wasn’t it interesting that the Democrats weren’t able to bask in their limelight for long? Blockbuster presser and then Sessions resigns. Then We have a new acting AG.
Then Jim loses his press pass!
Way to take over the narrative for 11-7-2018 Official date of Red October.
Continue to pray for him and his administration. We have been given a gift from God “for such a time as this!”
AMEN - for the last 50 years I thought Neil Armstrong would be the last American Hero - I may have been wrong.
put ‘em in another room with a T.V. Let them text their questions and see if they get taken.
Then they can’t complain about access. They’re there, but they aint all there.
2025!!!
DAMN these glasses!!!!
Saunders needs a couple of deceptively slightly built interns with Krav Maga skills to hammer the next propogandist that POTUS tells to sit down.
Saw this in real time and had the exact same thought - a punch to the shitbag’s larynx would have been appropriate and qualified her for a Cabinet job.
