AP Sues Trump Administration Over White House Ban

Trump says “The Gulf of America” and AP says, and will continue to say, The Gulf of Mexico”. This is not the only beef The Associated Press has with President Trump and the current administration.

They are, apparently, butt hurt that they have been disinvited to the party several times over, according to this. After being banned from some of President Trump’s events, the Oval Office, and Air Force One, AP is suing three Trump administrators in federal court, to include White House Press Secretary, Karoline Leavitt.

The suit was filed Friday afternoon in U.S. District Court in Washington. The AP is seeking an emergency hearing and a court order to declare the ban unconstitutional and require them to rescind it.

An “emergency” hearing! Cue the lawyers:

The press and all people in the United States have the right to choose their own words and not be retaliated against by the government. The Constitution does not allow the government to control speech. Allowing such government control and retaliation to stand is a threat to every American’s freedom.”
