This is Fascism..

Trump Says He Is Banning CNN, Politico, MSNOW From White House

President Donald Trump said he is banning news outlets CNN, MSNOW and Politico from the White House “as a result of their constant ‘reporting’ FAKE NEWS!”

In a Truth Social post on Friday, he baselessly accused the three credible news outlets of false reporting on him and his administration. He also said more outlets are to follow.[

'Fake ' equals 'Things the tyrant doesn't want to read.'

Overthrow Trump!

The television press pool covering the White House’s daily events will reportedly halt coverage in protest of President Donald Trump’s decision to bar CNN from participating.

Bryan Boughton, who runs the Fox News Washington bureau and is the current TV pool chair, announced the decision Monday morning in an email that was obtained by The Washington Post and CNN.

Beginning of some solidarity?

Yeah, because the 5 networks pool the videos to share so they all can save a bundle in production co

Doubtful that FOX is just "being nice". Still, it ends up serving as solidarity in spite of what may be less than pure motives. If it clowns him and puts trump on blast, then I'm down!

Viewership on the banned media will likely increase, much to the chagrin of the incompetent White House resident.

Of course it will! LOL

He just uses stuff like this as short-term intimidation, as a way of pushing Repubs' BS 'hate the media' agenda.

Thankfully, it's gotten to where many people are so done with his BS.

Felon will find somebody to ram it again in dead of night, when nobody is looking, and then have it condemned.

Why not incribe his name on Kennedy's tombstone?
It's really the same thing.

Know why Ivana is buried on his Bedminster golf course? Because he gets a cemetery exemption, so he pays almost no tax on it.

Donald Trump has renamed the Kennedy family

Mar a Lago (AP) - President Trump has ended the court battle over renaming the Kennedy Center by renaming the family for himself.

"The Kennedy family has been renamed Trump. I signed an executive order this morning decreeing that henceforth all Kennedys will be called Trump."

HHS Secretary Robert F Trump said, "The president's move is brilliant! I have never felt welcome by my family, but now that we're all Trumps, they have no choice."

The President ordered all states and municipalities to change the name of anything formerly known as Kennedy to Trump. Kennedy Airport will now be known as Trump Airport. Mt. Kennedy is now Mt. Trump, and every Kennedy high school and Kennedy street or boulevard will now be knows as Trump what ever.

Trump stopped short of making the order retroactive and posthumous but hinted that John Fitzgerald Trump had a nice ring to it.

He may as well spit on JFK’s grave and try to put his own name on that, too.

This is a very sick individual, and those who support him are almost as sick. Google would probably put on the map “Gulf of Trump” “Lake Trump” and “Strait of Trump” if he asked them to. Why not just rename Canada and Greenland as “Trump Territory”?

Good to hear!

The court said felon has the right to ban anyone he wants.
Of course that's wrong. News should be exempt, and the White House is NOT his house. It's OUR house. He is a tenant.
