US EditionAppeals Court Lets Trump Block AP From some White House Spaces for Now
- On Friday, a U.S. Appeals court temporarily halted a lower court decision that required the Associated Press to be allowed into certain White House press gatherings.
- The pause follows the AP's February lawsuit after the White House restricted its access due to the AP's refusal to rename the Gulf of Mexico.
- The appeals court ruling, authored by Trump appointees Judges Rao and Katsas, upheld the White House's discretion to exclude the AP from spaces like the Oval Office and Air Force One.
- The 2-1 decision held that certain areas within the executive branch do not constitute public forums for expressive activities protected under the First Amendment, thereby permitting the continuation of the ban while the case is reviewed.
- The ruling implies that the White House can regulate press access based on viewpoint, potentially prompting further legal challenges over press freedoms and presidential control.
