White House Rules Out Diesel Export Ban as Prices Surge Above $6.50

White House Rules Out Diesel Export Ban as Prices Surge Above $6.50

The White House on Wednesday denied that the Administration is considering a ban on U.S. diesel exports, clarifying comments from President Donald Trump and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent a day earlier that appeared to leave the door open to restrictions as the average diesel price in America topped $6.50 per gallon. A White House official denied a report that the Administration was preparing a 90-day ban on diesel exports, while Energy Secretary Chris Wright said nobody was considering a flat ban on shipments. Instead, the Administration is…

First Thing: News outlets suspend coverage of Trump in escalating media access row

First Thing: News outlets suspend coverage of Trump in escalating media access row

President’s decision to ban three news organisations from White House prompts backlash from major US news outlets. Plus, an incredible new resource to help trace the history of enslaved people in the 19th century Good morning. The row over media access to the presidency has deepened, with major US television news outlets agreeing to suspend their video coverage of Donald Trump after the administration banned journalists from several outlets from entering the White House grounds. The president had abruptly announced his ban against CNN, MS Now and Politico, saying he had had enough of “purposely negative stories” about him. On Monday the ban against CNN meant no broadcaster was covering Trump’s midday ribbon-cutting for a new White House helipad. The White House provided its own livestream but the president’s remarks were inaudible over the sound of a helicopter’s engine. How have CNN, MS Now and Politico responded to the ban? A lawsuit seeks a temporary restraining order that would immediately lift the ban. In a statement, the organizations said : “We are filing a lawsuit today to protect our first amendment rights and defend the principle that the government does not decide what the press reports or publishes.” What other significant media developments have there been? Paramount has reached a settlement with California and several other states that sued over its proposed $81bn merger with Warner Bros Discovery (WBD), the California attorney general announced, clearing the way to consolidate some of Hollywood’s most recognizable TV networks and studios under one owner. What else is Trump expected to say at the UN? The US ambassador to the UN said Trump would speak about how he had “confronted complex problems head-on around the world”. Our writer Robert Tait notes in this analysis , however, that thanks to Trump’s recent social media blitz and self-proclaimed “25 top achievements”, the chances of an uplifting speech appear slim.

Trump says he is banning CNN, MS NOW, Politico from White House

Trump says he is banning CNN, MS NOW, Politico from White House

WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump said on Friday he is banning three major news outlets - CNN, MS ‌NOW and Politico - from the White House in his latest threat to the independent press. The move is almost certain to face legal challenges as free speech experts said it conflicts with the US Constitution's First Amendment protections for free speech and a free press. Trump accused the outlets of "reporting FAKE NEWS" in a social media post, and said they "shouldn't be able to constantly write or report FICTION and LIES when they're covering the President of the United States." Trump added, "Other Fake News Media Outlets to follow." Representatives of all three outlets could be seen working in the White House on Friday afternoon following Trump's post. The White House was informing all three they would be banned from the White House grounds as of Saturday, ⁠Fox News reported, citing an unnamed senior White House official. Trump said there was no specific incident that prompted the ban, telling reporters in the Oval Office, "It's really just cumulative stories over the past few years." Trump added, "I don't have to let them into my, into the people's house." When asked what he meant by others "to follow," Trump mentioned the New York Times and Washington Post as what he called "fake news." The extent of the ban announced by Trump was not immediately clear, and the legality of any move could depend on its ‌scope. Courts have given presidents broad discretion over selective access to events such as Oval Office meetings and small press pools, while broader exclusions from generally available White House press facilities or credentials could face stronger challenges under the First Amendment and constitutional protections for due process. Trump's move came weeks ahead of the November 3 midterm elections in which Trump's fellow Republicans are defending narrow majorities in Congress. Reuters/Ipsos ‌polls show the public souring on Republicans, as Trump's own approval ratings stand near historic lows amid the deeply unpopular Iran war ‌he kicked off that has sent energy prices soaring. Decades of tradition The Trump administration has upended decades of tradition in dealings between the White House and press, cutting back ‌the access many major news organizations have had to the president while elevating ‌the presence of new media outlets seen as more sympathetic to the administration. CNN in a statement said it stands behind its journalists who cover the White House. "We have a right under the US Constitution to do that reporting without hindrance or interference from the government," CNN said in a statement. "Should ‌the ban which President Trump threatened go ahead, it would be an illegal assault on that fundamental and constitutionally protected right." Politico said on X ⁠that it would "continue to fairly report on this White House and future ones." "We will vigorously defend our First Amendment rights against any attempt to restrict them," Politico said. MS NOW declined to comment. "It's difficult to imagine a more blatant violation of the First Amendment than Trump banning news outlets from the People's House for criticizing the government," Seth Stern, chief of advocacy at Freedom of the Press Foundation, said in a statement. Jameel Jaffer, executive ⁠director of the Knight First Amendment Institute at Columbia ⁠University, said the First Amendment prohibits the president from punishing journalists because he does not like their coverage. "If President Trump means to expel these news organizations from the White House press pool, his action is doubly unconstitutional because the press pool is a 'public forum' under the First Amendment, which means the president can't exclude journalists from it on the basis of their viewpoints," Jaffer said ⁠in a statement. Tabloid history Trump rose to fame as a New York developer skilled in getting the city's tabloid newspapers to cover his social life, and went on to build his profile as a reality television personality before making a serious push into politics. Since his successful 2016 campaign, Trump has regularly criticized the press, stepping up his complaints during his second term in office. He has repeatedly urged broadcasters to drop comedy or news programs he dislikes or which have joked about or criticized him or his administration, calling on the Federal Communications Commission to strip disfavored broadcast stations of their licenses. Trump has filed several lawsuits against the press, including the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, ‌the BBC and the Des Moines Register. The suits can have a chilling effect. His defamation suits against ABC and CBS were settled for $15 million and $16 million, respectively. In his first term, Trump's White House sought to revoke or suspend the credentials of Playboy correspondent Brian Karem and CNN's Jim Acosta, but federal judges ordered their White House press passes restored. Since returning to the presidency in January 2025, Trump has openly badgered reporters, particularly from US television networks. Last year, he also banned the Associated Press from the usual pool of reporters that cover his movements because the news agency did not adopt Trump's preferred name for the Gulf of Mexico, which Trump has instructed executive branch employees to refer to as the Gulf of America.
