White House press room.

WTF!?!?!
I have an idea. There should be a clown mariachi band that surrounds Jim at all times on WH grounds. His mouth opens, they go full bore. Something along these lines: https://youtu.be/x3-aettVq54?t=210
The President isn’t required to call on Acosta, nor to have any press conferences at all.
If he choose to still have them, just sit the idiot in the back corner, issue him a dunce cap, and ignore him.
From what I understand from reading it, is that the judge had a problem with the WH just arbitrarily revoking credentials without any definition of what violations have occurred. The POTUS stating that he could, for any reason, take any reporters credential probably did not help. The rules of decorum that will follow will serve to define what is expected in order for the press corps to retain their privilege. At least this is how I see it.
nice!
Speak of the devil. The WH WILL be issuing rules for reporters. I guess it was never done before because it was believed that reporters would behave themselves.

President Donald Trump says the White House is “writing up rules and regulations” for reporters after a judge ordered the administration to restore credentials for CNN reporter Jim Acosta.
Trump told reporters Friday that “people have to behave.” He added that if journalists “don’t listen to the rules and regulations, we will end up back in court and we will win.”
Once again, unconstitutional micromanaging from black robed tyrants.
This will continue until patriots decide they’ve had enough tyranny.
Imagine, one federal judge ordering the Leader of the Free World, the Chief Executive, the Commander-in-Chief, who he must invite to the White House.
Imagine if Acosta acted this way IN THAT JUDGE’S OWN COURT ROOM, how long he would last!
Who is giving POTUS the names of potential judges to nominate? Never-Trumpers? They must be smirking their arses off, just like their comrade Acosta.
Read the White House Press release regarding the Judge’s ruling. Trump has already surrendered. Sucks, I thought he was going to surround the White House with the same Troops that will not stop a single Caravan illegal.
White House press room.
I think a bunch of people should just demand to apply for a press pass, and argue that they should get it on basis of being a journalist and having first Amendment rights.
The entire First Amendment is about how the government can’t just arrest you for what you wrote or said, so long as you weren’t violent and threatening in doing so, simply the fact that it implies the government being wrong or doesn’t agree with them is fine. BTW, did we ever bother pardoning the man who made the offensive Islam video on YouTube that got blamed for causing Benghazi?
“Her response should have been to kick him in the crotch.”
Then she would have been arrested for assault.
Nixon and Regan would not have Surrendered, as Trump has. This is a disgraceful dereliction of Presidential Power.
“Next judges will tell POTUS they must allow ISIS and MS13 into the WH.”
The Fraud already set that precedent.
What many people seem to be having a hard time understanding are that privileges, rights, ownership, etc can accrue through usage and (implied) acceptance of said claim(s). (The legal term is adverse possession.) In other words, a right becomes 'property' that can be transferred, sold, assigned, etc.
To summarize, it has *value*. Now, does anyone ever notice the long legal contract on the back of a parking or theater stub? What it specifically says is that the user only has a right to the specific conditions of usage ie performance/parking time, and that no other common law rights are created.
This ruling is in no way a victory for CNN; rather it's a major loss for the MSM. Because know Trump can revoke *everyone's* pass, establish a firm set of guidelines, rules and procedures governing codes of conduct, and then re-issue passes under those stipulated terms and conditions. Furthermore, there is nothing stopping Trump from setting up an application process where any citizen can petition for a pass.
If that comes to fruition, and if seating is limited to 50 people or so, guess what happens when there are 10,000 requests? Lottery time. CNN/Acosta totally and completely screwed a cozy insider game for everyone in the MSM. The 5A ruling is a disaster for them.
“Next judges will tell POTUS they must allow ISIS and MS13 into the WH.”
Why not, he surrendered to this ruling within a half-hour.
Finally someone who thought about it as opposed to just explode on the spot
I hope that you are correct.
Put him in the back of the room, ignore him and have him removed if he causes any disruptions.
