A federal judge ordered President Donald Trump to temporarily restore White House access for CNN, Politico, and MS Now.
asserted
judge → order → CNN
Judge Timothy Kelly of the U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C., who was appointed by Trump, called the ban unconstitutional and ordered the White House to “immediately return, reinstate, and restore” the journalists’s press credentials.
asserted
who → appoint → credentials
The 14-day restraining order came down early Thursday morning.
asserted
order → come → ?
Trump announced he was revoking White House press passes from the three outlets on Friday evening, saying he disagreed with their coverage and that access is a privilege.
asserted
access → announce → coverage
The outlets filed a suit challenging the move on First Amendment grounds.
asserted
outlets → file → grounds
In Kelly’s ruling, which came hours after an afternoon hearing, he noted that the news outlets had to show they are likely to succeed on the merits of their due process claim, and are likely to likely to suffer “irreparable harm” if there is not immediate relief.
“This is a high bar, but Plaintiffs have met it,” Kelly wrote in his ruling.
uncertain
Kelly → come → ruling
The plaintiff’s argue that Trump’s order revoking the outlets’s press passes violated due process, which is the procedural standards the government must go through before revoking someone’s rights.
asserted
government → argue → rights
Kelly wrote that the outlets did not receive “fair notice” of the government’s intention to revoke their access before doing so.
asserted
outlets → write → access
The judge also commented on the Trump administration’s claim that the outlet’s hard passes were revoked for national security issues.
uncertain
passes → comment → issues
“The Court is skeptical–at least on this record–that Defendants’ interests in safeguarding national security is the actual motivation for, or is even advanced by, the revocation of Plaintiff’s hard passes,” he wrote.
asserted
he → safeguard → passes
Kelly also noted that in Trump’s own comments about the ban, he focused on disagreeing with the coverage itself, instead of national security concerns.
asserted
he → note → concerns
“And even the justifications provided to Plaintiffs after this case was filed are ambiguous about the true purpose of the revocations: while Defendants’ letters to Plaintiffs mention national security concerns, they purport to identify reporting that “threatened national security and/or spread falsehoods,” leaving open the possibility that all the stories fall into the later bucket, rather than the former,” Kelly wrote.
asserted
Kelly → provide → former
“This is a strong ruling vindicating freedom of the press, due process and the rule of law.
asserted
This → vindicate → law
We greatly appreciate the court’s swift action,” Theodore Boutrous Jr., a lawyer representing the news outlets, said.
asserted
Jr. → appreciate → outlets
Trump was pessimistic about his odds to succeed with case being decided under Kelly, since he has ruled against Trump in media cases before.
asserted
he → succeed → cases
“They have drawn a great Judge, for them, a man who ruled in favor of Jim Acosta, who now seems to have disappeared from the Planet.
asserted
who → draw → Planet
The Judge’s name is Tim Kelly, and he was, sadly, appointed by ‘TRUMP,’” Trump wrote Monday.
asserted
Trump → appoint → TRUMP
“In other words, almost without question and, as usual, we’ll go for appeal because Fake News people and publications that only write negatively, and who violate our National Security by writing false and defamatory stories with unknown ‘sources,’ shouldn’t be allowed access to the most important Office anywhere in the World.
asserted
who → go → World
Why should I have to give ‘access’ to such people?
asserted
I → have → people
Perhaps Judge Kelly could explain that!”
uncertain
Kelly → explain → that
Trump added.
asserted
Trump → add → ?
