Yes. On September 23, 2026, U.S. District Judge Timothy Kelly heard arguments on President Donald Trump’s ban barring CNN, MS NOW and Politico from White House grounds. Early in the teleconference hearing, Kelly cited D.C. Circuit precedent requiring notice before press credentials are revoked and said of that predeprivation process, “I think it is fair to say that process … wasn’t followed here.”
Kelly ended the roughly 46-minute hearing without ruling from the bench on the outlets’ request for immediate restored access, telling counsel he would try to decide “as soon as I can.” The outlets argue the ban violates First Amendment and due process rights; the Justice Department has defended it on national-security and privilege grounds.
