CNN, Politco And MS NOW Allowed At White House After Judge Lifts Trump Ban

CNN, MS NOW and Politico were allowed back into the White House on Thursday, six days after being banned by President Donald Trump, after a federal judge ordered that the journalists have their access restored.District Judge Timothy Kelly ruled overnight that revoking the White House press credentials of the three media outlets "likely violated their constitutional due process rights."Reporters for CNN, MS NOW and Politico who attempted to return to the White House early Thursday ahead of a visit by Chinese President Xi Jinping were initially turned away by the Secret Service but were allowed in later around midday.Journalists from other outlets surrounded CNN's tent on the White House driveway and filmed reporter Betsy Klein as she reported live following her return.
