US judge extends media outlets' White House access

On her first day briefing at the White House podium, new Press Secretary Katie Zacharia made headlines by announcing President Trump's decision to ask Ambassador Kimberly Guilfoyle to resign. The White House correspondent, Liz Landers, explained that this announcement came after allegations emerged that Guilfoyle sought $100,000 from a donor in exchange for access to administration officials.

Guilfoyle confirmed the resignation via social media, defending herself against the allegations and stating her intention to support President Trump. However, the situation remains complex as PBS News reported that last week's Wall Street Journal revealed potential improper conduct by Guilfoyle. This included an accusation that she tried to bribe a political donor with a $100,000 credit card payoff for access to administration officials.

Although President Trump expressed his disapproval during a rally, the matter might not be over for Guilfoyle, as Democrats demanded her records in connection with an ongoing investigation.
