Trump bans CNN, MS NOW, Politico from White House, warns others

United States President Donald Trump has barred CNN, MS NOW, and Politico from the White House, alleging propaganda by the major news networks and website.

Trump accused the outlets of reporting “fake news” about his administration, stating they “shouldn’t be able to constantly write or report fiction or lies” when covering the President.

In a statement via his social media platform TruthSocial, the President indicated that other “fake” media organizations would face a similar ban.

Trump claimed Politico received “an illegal and ridiculous $8 million subscription” from the U.S. Government under former President Joe Biden “in order to keep them alive”.

During a presser in the Oval Office, Trump defended his decision when a reporter reminded him that every President takes an oath to uphold the Constitution.

“You get so tired of reading and seeing fake news…there may be others to join them,” the U.S. leader hinted. “Our country has to have honest news.”

Another reporter asked if he was trying to intimidate the press from doing its job, Trump replied: “No, no, no. I dislike dishonest press like you. I think you are terrible.”

He argued that a court should not allow fake news to be written every day, saying “somebody has a right to keep them away if they are going to write false stories all the time.”

On his latest approval rating by Fox, the President declared the platform has the “worst polls in the whole business,” and should have gotten rid of their pollsters years ago.

Trump further described the Washington Post as “disgusting,” while insisting his administration isn’t repressive. “We don’t repress, but they write fake news,” he said.
