🚨 BREAKING: A federal judge has ordered the White House to IMMEDIATELY restore the press credentials of CNN, MS NOW, and POLITICO reporters after President Trump barred the outlets from the White House. 1/
Screenshot of page 8 of a September 24, 2026 federal court order signed by U.S. District Judge Timothy J. Kelly. The order grants the plaintiffs’ motion for a temporary restraining order and directs White House officials, excluding President Trump, to immediately restore the “hard pass” press credentials of employees of CNN, MS NOW, and POLITICO that were revoked around September 18, 2026. The temporary restraining order remains in effect for 14 days. The plaintiffs are also ordered to post a $1 bond by October 1, 2026. The page ends with “SO ORDERED,” Judge Kelly’s signature, title, and the date September 24, 2026.
