Trump has banned CNN, Politico and MS NOW from White House, secret service has confiscating or deactivating their press passes, reporters from these three news outlets are barred from entry to the White House. Trump said it's because their reporting is unfair, inaccurate, and "purposely negative" about his administration.


Is Trump within his rights, is it legal, is he violating the 1st amendment?


What do you think about this?

This is literally the government attempting to restrict speech about the government - the thing the 1st amendment is meant to protect against. The lawsuits have already begun. Hopefully, SCOTUS can once again discard its bias for Trump and protect America.
