  "account": "POLITICO secured a White House visit after being barred earlier that same day, despite a judge ordering restoration of press access. Earlier on Thursday, a judge had ordered the Trump administration to restore press access for POLITICO, CNN, and MS NOW, but the administration had initially refused. Lead lawyer Theodore Boutrous Jr. alerted US District Judge Timothy Kelly on Thursday morning that reporters from each outlet had been denied entry, despite the judge's temporary restraining order. Boutrous requested an immediate hearing to address the administration's non-compliance with the court's ruling. The judge gave the administration until 12:30 p.m. Eastern time to respond. The White House responded shortly before the deadline, confirming that it had restored access for all three outlets by 9:55 a.m. CNN and MS NOW also reported their reporters had begun gaining access to the White House grounds.",
