(AmericanProsperity.com) – In a resounding victory for the Trump administration, a federal judge has refused to intervene in the Associated Press’ (AP) desperate attempt to regain access to the White House.
The drama began when the AP refused to comply with President Donald Trump’s executive order renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America.
The liberal media’s tactics backfired spectacularly, prompting it to file a lawsuit against the Trump administration.
Presiding Judge Trevor McFadden delivered a decisive blow to the liberal media outlet’s claims of First Amendment violations in the first round of what is set to become a major legal saga.
“I can’t say the AP has shown a likelihood of success here,” Judge McFadden stated.
The judge’s ruling underscores a fundamental truth: access to the White House is a privilege, not a right.
This decision reaffirms President Trump’s authority to determine who gets to cover his administration, putting an end to the entitled behavior of left-leaning news organizations.
Judge McFadden was skeptical of the AP’s lawsuit, which was filed in a desperate attempt to force its way back into the White House.
He questioned the irreparable harm claimed by the organization, noting it could still access information without being physically present.
This observation cuts through the AP’s cries of censorship, revealing their true motive: maintaining their privileged status at any cost.
U.S. Attorney Brian Hudak, representing the administration, delivered an argument that resonated with the court.
He stated that the president has the right to decide who has access to the White House, asserting that no one has a “special access right.”
“If tomorrow the White House decides to abolish the White House press pool, they can do that. I don’t think that offends the Constitution,” Hudak argued.
President Trump’s executive order renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America is a bold move that reasserts American sovereignty.
The AP’s stubborn refusal to adopt this change in their reporting has been seen as a direct challenge to the president’s authority.
The White House’s decision to bar AP journalists from covering events in critical governmental locations sends a clear message that media organizations cannot pick and choose which presidential directives they will follow based on their political biases.
The AP’s claim that this is a targeted attack on press freedom is nothing more than a smokescreen to hide their anti-Trump agenda.
While the liberal media cries foul, the Trump administration stands firm in its conviction that press access is indeed a privilege.
This stance is not about silencing dissent but ensuring that the American people receive news from sources that respect the president’s office and the will of the people who elected him.
As the case moves forward to a March 20 hearing, the judicial system has, for now, upheld the president’s authority to manage White House access.
