Despite a court order, a reporter and photographer from The Associated Press were barred from an Oval Office news conference on Monday with President Donald Trump and his counterpart from El Salvador, Nayib Bukele.
Last week’s federal court decision forbidding the Trump administration from punishing the AP for refusing to rename the Gulf of Mexico was to take effect Monday. The administration is appealing the decision and arguing with the news outlet over whether it needs to change anything until those appeals are exhausted.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. circuit set a Thursday hearing on Trump’s request that any changes be delayed while case is reviewed. The AP is fighting for more access as soon as possible.

Why do they keep reporting on anything else but the Other my? Seems like a waste of time imo
“Despite a Court Order” could be the title of a history book detailing orange douche canoe’s second (and attempt at a third) term(s) in the white house. Seems like we’ll be reading variations of those words with upsetting regularity for the next few years.
Trump and his goons flatly ignore the courts now. That’s just another example.
hmm…so he can just ignore court orders and it’s okay now? what the actual fuck.
Who do we want to stop him?
“Military” I mean realistically

If the president doesn’t have to follow the law, why should we?
Because there is a very real possibility that we end up in a hole in EL Salvador, never to be seen again.
You don’t have a militia that stormed the Capitol once and is ready to do it again
laws exist to protect the power and bind the peasant,
always have been, the façade just feel off

Every jury should be be asking this question too. If Trump can break the law, everyone can.
Silly American, rules are for poors!
Fuck this shitty fucking country
Good guy AP
He also announced in the meeting that they won’t be facilitating the return of an illegally-extradited man despite the Supreme Court’s unanimous order to do so.
Why don’t the Democrats try to impeach him over this? I know it won’t pass with the Republicans in charge, but at least it would show that they tried to make things right.
They should try it and try to get Republicans to vote against Trump - I know it won’t work, but at least they should be forced to publicly show their colors as minions of a dictator.
There should be a impeachment trial for each and every time that traitor breaks the law. It’s the least they could do.
And that they’re targeting American citizens to be sent to El Salvador as well.
Trump is a petty little bitch.
