On Monday, a federal judge denied the Associated Press’s emergency motion to restore its access to the White House press pool.
U.S. District Judge Trevor McFadden, a Trump appointee, denied the AP’s emergency motion but ordered expedited consideration of the matter.
Earlier this month, Trump took decisive action against the far-left Associated Press (AP) in response to their refusal to acknowledge the administration’s directives.
This comes after the AP blatantly ignored the executive order that renamed the ‘Gulf of Mexico’ to the ‘Gulf of America.’
President Trump not only renamed the Gulf of Mexico but also declared February 9, 2025, as the first-ever ‘Gulf of America Day.’
Last week, another Associated Press reporter was denied access to the Oval Office as President Trump signed a memorandum imposing reciprocal tariffs on nations taxing the United States.
The Trump administration took a stand against the AP’s dishonesty, barring one of its reporters from covering Elon Musk’s White House visit.
The Associated Press urgently requested a federal judge’s intervention to restore its access to the White House after being blocked by the Trump administration.
The AP claimed its First Amendment rights were infringed upon after being denied access to the White House press pool for refusing to acknowledge the Gulf of America’s name change.
Judge Trevor McFadden told the court there were several reasons he denied the temporary restraining order request. He noted there was a difference in the issues of this case and case law presented by both parties.
