Judge Sets Hearing on Trump's Ban on CNN, MSNBC, Politico Journalists' Access to the White House

A federal judge has scheduled a hearing for September 23, 2026, on a lawsuit filed by CNN, MSNBC, and Politico against Donald Trump's ban on their journalists' access to the White House. The lawsuit seeks an immediate preliminary injunction to block the ban, which was implemented after the White House revoked access badges for correspondents from these outlets on September 19, 2026.

The lawsuit was filed on September 22, 2026, following the revocation of White House access badges for journalists from CNN, MSNBC, and Politico. The ban, which restricts entry to the White House for correspondents from these outlets, was announced by the Trump administration on September 19, 2026. The legal action seeks to compel the administration to reverse the decision, arguing it violates the First Amendment and undermines press freedom.
