White House Must Allow The Associated Press Full Access to Trump, Judge Rules


The Trump administration has barred the news outlet from certain events for its use of the term “Gulf of Mexico,” which a federal judge agreed amounted to a violation of the First Amendment.

[Hareeba!]

Trump just slapped a 50% tariff on Lesotho—a country where the average person lives on less than $5 a day.

Why? Because USA imports a few hundred million in diamonds and textiles from them, and they’re too poor to buy anything back.

That’s it.

He's hammering one of the poorest nations on Earth like they’re China.

You think Lesotho is the reason for loss of steel jobs in Ohio? Be serious.

This isn’t strategy—it’s punching down for applause from people who can’t find Lesotho on a map.

If you’re still calling this “America First,” you’ve lost the plot. This is just cruelty for clout.

just another power hungry corrupt unelected radical judge pretending it has anything to do with the First Amendment.

Trump can decide who he speaks to. Just like anyone else. No judge can't force anyone to speak to another person. The Associated Press's First Amendment's rights haven't been violated. They are free to post their nonsense as per usual. No one is stopping them.

Put it this way Hareeballs, YOU have blocked me and others on this forum simply because we posted facts to your lies. Blocking us never took away our freedom of speech. We still continue to expose you and your lies, while you continue to pretend you don't read them.

This was Trump’s response to a reporter’s question on why people were protesting.

It’s absolute word salad.

Grandpa needs to be in a home.

Here was Trump’s answer, verbatim:

“Protesters for different reasons. You’re protesting also because, you know, they just didn’t know. I’ve watch —I watched very closely. Why are you here? They really weren’t able to say, but they were there for a reason, perhaps. “But a lot of them really were there because they’re following the crowd. A lot of them were there because what we witnessed was a terrible thing. What we saw was a terrible thing. And we’ve seen it over the years. We haven’t, you know, this was one horrible example, but you’ve seen other terrible examples. You know that better than anybody who would know it. And I know it. I’ve seen it, too. I’ve seen it before I was president. I’ve seen it. I think it’s a shame. I think it’s a disgrace. And it’s got to stop.”

Absolutely 100% incorrect, or as you like to say "a complete lie". This is about restricting access, not about deciding to not speak to somebody. Don't be so obtuse.

"Separation of Powers".

The U.S. Constitution establishes three separate but equal branches of government: the legislative branch (makes the law), the executive branch (enforces the law), and the judicial branch (interprets the law).

The POTUS isn't a king.

"[T]he Court simply holds that under the First Amendment, if the Government opens its doors to some journalists—be it to the Oval Office, the East Room, or elsewhere—it cannot then shut those doors to other journalists because of their viewpoints. The Constitution requires no less," U.S. District Court Judge Trevor N. McFadden wrote in his opinion.

these idiots are protesting that Trump wants to take away their social security and medicare. The reality is the exact opposite. The mere fact they don't know this but waste their time screaming "fascist" and "Nazi" is a perfect example of how the fake news legacy media has programmed much of the public.

You were drowning, a person jumps in the water to save you, the following day you call the person a Nazi and burn his business. That's where we're at.

Wrong. Trump isn't denying access to journalists. That's a totally different discussion. Every administration have their favorite reporters they grant access to. A democrat president will have more Liberal journalists and a republican president will have more conservative ones. That's just the way it is. Get over it.

Trump talks to everyone. No president talks to media as much as he does. Right now he's having a tiff with the AP. No reason why any judge needs to get involved. Its insane. Funny how you can be led by the nose as easily as you are. The AP could just call it the Gulf of America and the problem is solved, but they want some lunatic judge to get involved. Idiot crybabies.

Yes Dwight, the courts got involved because Trump banned the AP from attending press conferences, I know that explaining this to you is futile but I'll post for the benefit of others.

The fact that you're so confident while incorrect is astonishing.


From the order:

"About two months ago, President Donald Trump renamed the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf ofAmerica. The Associated Press did not follow suit. For that editorial choice, the White Housesharply curtailed the AP’s access to coveted, tightly controlled media events with the President.The AP now sues the White House chief of staff, her communications deputy, and the presssecretary (collectively, “the Government”), seeking a preliminary injunction enjoining theGovernment from excluding it because of its viewpoint."

The AP is just one news outlet. So what? Is every news outlet automatically allowed to attend energy press conference? Every news conference there are news outlets who can't get in for one reason or another. Some of these journalists get more views that CNN, MSNBC and the AP and they aren't able to attend. There is only some much room. The AP wants to play games and show disrespect, then so be it.

You will always take any side so long as it is against Trump. No matter how unreasonable it is. Its why TDS exists.

we all knew why Biden was flying in 30,000 illegals in every month and allowed 10-20 million to walk across the border. When we stated this observable reality, the radical left said there is no proof and that we are Nazis.

Democrats issued Social Security numbers to millions of criminal aliens. Below is a graph of new non-citizen Social Security numbers issued. Their plan was clear: import illegal immigrants, grant them legal status and transform America into a deep-blue socialist state.

Perhaps the greatest tragedy which is going to result from this abominable administration and it's alienation of all democratic nations which were once seen as allies is that it will embolden China to launch their long threatened invasion of Taiwan well before Trump's term is over.

Just for starters ... you can't even define what a woman is, you don't know the difference between legal and illegal immigrant, you think there was an insurrection on J6, you just told us again that Biden saved the economy and created more jobs than anyone, and you've repeatedly claimed Biden didn't have dementia and that AOC is smart.

Folks, this whole tariff nonsense is not at all about a genuine economic policy.

Have you seen what he's been doing to the large law firms (and universities)?

Threatening retribution unless they come to the party with loyalty pledges and significant pro-bono deals for his administration.

This tariff thing is simply just another shakedown operation.

He's looking to the major industries/firms which would be affected to come to the table and make deals to contribute to his campaign/administration in exchange for relief.

In the meantime those insiders in the know are buying up big on the stockmarket's huge falls and will book large gainswhen the deals are struck.

Is the SEC even going to look into the trades made by administration insiders in the last 3 weeks?

Money is pouring in like no one has ever seen before

Just for the record, the tariffs haven’t started yet.

Don't believe anything. When a clown moves into the palace it becomes a circus. They say Trump is "negotiating" a deal but he needs to rake 5 trillion from the people's 401k to do it. They said today Trump broke another record. He is the fastest president to take a US economy into recession. He dropped the stock market by 25% in just 3 days. What a guy! The gift that keeps on giving!

Nice spin there. This is the worst rapid freefall since the Great Depression. Worse than COVID, which at least had a reason that wasn't 100% presidentially self-induced. And the market is simply predicting the odds of future fall in economic activity due to the current policies. It will be followed by recession or depression. Unless Trump decided to reverse course. Very easy. Still has some time before he self-induced recession or depression.

But this just goes to show that you will excuse anything with Trump. Anything. He can do no wrong in the eyes of his Cultists.

On April 9, 2025, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) experienced its largest one-day point gain ever, surging by 2,962.86 points, or 7.9%, to close at 40,608.45.

Reiterating what we all know isn't crime.

anyone that knows anything about stock market has heard terms such as "Buy low sell high" or "now is great time because they are on sale". Everyone has been saying it for the last few days as well. Expect the radical Lefties who were cheering for it to keep dropping so they could continue to blame Trump.

But of course, you cult members who always accuse others of being in a cult, lost your collective minds when they market dipped, like its done for decades. Now, a few short days later, you all look foolish once again. Now comes the spin and the excuses.


If anything, y'all are consistent AF. Consistent and predictable.

He should be in prison for insider trading and market manipulation. But I like that China is fighting back with more tariffs as they have nothing to lose. No 401ks in China as the party controls everything and no danger of midterms.

No, you don't understand my point. China is not taking Trump's bluff. Trump can't do anything to them as they have no elections so he can force a regime change. Why would China back down on tariffs as it only hurts the US? Last time Trump put tariffs on China he had to bail out the farmers with subsidies as they couldn't sell their soybeans and pork to China.
