President Donald Trump has announced that he is banning CNN, MSNOW (formerly MSNBC), and Politico from the White House, claiming they are solely responsible for spreading fake news. The decision was made effective immediately and was announced through Trump's Truth Social platform. Trump wrote, "I am proud to announce that, effective immediately, I am banning Fake News CNN, MSNOW (who recently changed their name from MSNBC due to lack of viewership and credibility!), and Politico... from the White House as a result of their constant “reporting” FAKE NEWS!"
He further alleged that Politico received an illegal and ridiculous $8 million subscription directly from the United States Government under President Joe Biden to keep the outlet afloat, calling it "corruption." Trump emphasized that media outlets should not be allowed to write or report fiction and lies when covering the President of the United States or the Administration, and warned other fake news media outlets to follow suit.
