White House blocks CNN from press pool again, despite judge’s block on ban The White House has, again, blocked CNN from covering Donald Trump as part of the rotating press pool. The outlet was scheduled to be a part of the group of media traveling to Texas and Oklahoma with the president today, but was removed from list of newsrooms in place for the trip, per the White House schedule. This comes a Trump-appointed federal judge issued a temporary restraining against the administration banning CNN, Politico and MS Now from the White House. That block is in place until 8 October, despite officials still preventing CNN from traveling on Air Force One to provide pool coverage over the weekend. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/live/2026/oct/01/tennessee-governor-halts-executions-christa-pike-lethal-injection-donald-trump-hegseth-musk-us-politics-latest-news-updates?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other
