Without a free press, you no longer have a democracy. This is what happens in places like Russia, China and North Korea. Yet,
these Dirty Dozen 15 still support trump. What does he have to do for you to say NO MAS?
Of course this won't stand up in court and will be reversed as soon as tomorrow. Also note that the White House press pool
consisting of CNN, CBS, NBC (MSNOW), ABC and yes, even FOX, have done the right thing by demonstrating solidarity and now
none of them will cover the White House until this is resolved.
Trump promised two things while running for a 2nd term, reducing prices and NO MORE WARS. How has that worked out?
The one good thing that has happened during this 2nd term is that the stock market has done very well (mostly due to AI
and in spite of trump). I'll just say that if you're not significantly invested in the stock market, living with this economy
(i.e. prices) and still support trump, you're a bigger CHUMP than even trump takes you for. Anyone want off the list?

This from CNN
The decision means the shared TV pool will not cover President Donald Trump’s events designated for pool coverage, according to an email Monday from Bryan Boughton, the Fox News Washington bureau chief who currently chairs the pool.
“This follows the White House’s position preventing CNN from fulfilling its assigned pool duties,” Boughton wrote to other pool subscribers. “There will be no replacement pool put in place.”
Under a longstanding arrangement, the five networks take turns filming the president and providing live footage to one another and the wider press corps. Local TV stations, newspaper websites and media outlets worldwide rely on that coverage.
Lawsuit will overturn that idiot like every lawsuit filed, he loses 98 percent of them, even Trump appointed judges have gone against him
He has zero chance of keeping them banned

There was an event today covered by Newsmax but there was no audio because the pool mike wasn't there

As if we have a free press anyway.
All outlets spout what their ownership wants them to spout.
How else could you ever explain the difference in coverage between CNN and FOX.
Newspaper media is no different.
News is bought and paid for.

democracy:
Our Founders solved the problem by creating a Constitution that combines democracy (self-governance) with federalism (division of power among states/feds) and republicanism (deliberation and compromise). This is why we have a Senate (one state, one vote) and a House (one person, one vote). It is why our government is divided into three co-equal branches: executive, legislative and judicial. It is why we have supermajority requirements to do things like amend the Constitution. It is why we have presidential vetoes.

what goes arpund comes around
Different presidents, different parties, but a familiar fight with the press. In 2009, the Obama administration tried to exclude Fox News from a pooled interview, but other networks objected and the White House backed down. In 2026, the Trump administration went further by barring CNN, MS NOW, and Politico reporters from White House grounds and deactivating their credentials, prompting other news organizations to defend them.
