  "summary": "US President Donald Trump will host Chinese leader Xi Jinping at the White House for a state visit. The visit is aimed at maintaining peace despite tensions over trade and other issues.\n\nA US federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to temporarily restore White House access to journalists from CNN, MS NOW, and Politico, citing concerns that the ban was likely unconstitutional. The judge, Timothy Kelly, issued a 14-day temporary restraining order, allowing the outlets' press credentials to be reinstated while the case proceeds.\n\nThe ban on the outlets was announced by Trump, who accused them of publishing false reporting. The outlets had sued the administration, alleging that the move violated their First Amendment rights and Fifth Amendment due process protections. According to Judge Kelly, the administration's contention that the revocation of press passes would protect national security lacked factual support.",
