- Description
- President Trump said Friday he wasn't trying to "intimidate" the press with his move to ban CNN, MSNOW and Politico from the White House while threatening to bar more outlets, and defended the move whether or not it passes legal muster.
"No, no, no, no, no. I dislike dishonest press, like you. I think you're terrible," he said when asked about his motive by Bloomberg News reporter Catherine Lucey. "I like to see honest press."
The president said "we'll see" when asked whether he thinks such a ban would hold up in court.
"I think it's good to point it out, whether it survives or doesn't," he said.
The president argued that media outlets that purposely write negative stories should not necessarily be allowed into the White House.
"It's sick. I mean, there's something wrong with a country that can allow people to write purposely negative stories," he said. "Now, if they want to write them, that's fine. But I don't have ...

- President Trump said Friday that it was "not possible" for Jewish or Black Americans to vote for Democrats "in a world of rationality."
"How a Jewish person could vote for a Democrat is not even, if you think of it, not even believable. And yet they will. It's amazing," he said when answering a question about controversial streamer Hasan Piker, whom he called a "liability" for Democrats.
"It is not possible, in a world of rationality, that somebody who is Jewish, that somebody who is Black … could vote for a Democrat."

- President Trump on Friday defended his decision to ban CNN, MSNOW and Politico from the White House, accusing the outlets of publishing "fake news."
"Our country has to have honest news," he told reporters in the Oval Office. "You know how fake their reporting is. It's one-sided. It's never good."
The president said there was "no reason" in particular for why he was instituting the ban now.
"It's really just cumulative stories over the last few years. You get sick of it," he said. "They purposely write negative news, and they do that because they want to try and diminish the Republicans and a Republican administration."

- Rahm Emanuel, the former Chicago mayor, congressman and White House chief of staff, gave his elevator pitch Friday for a potential 2028 presidential run.
"When the American dream became unaffordable, when it became inaccessible, is exactly when the American democracy became unstable," he said at the Atlantic Festival in New York. "And guess what? You're not paranoid when you think the system's rigged against you. Everything that we grew up knowing has been pulled away. Both parties have failed."
Mr. Emanuel, however, said there was hope, saying being born in America was like winning the "lottery ticket of life."
"This country is at a tipping point," he said. "But I do know one thing, if you invest in the American people and you invest in this country, Beijing, watch out, we're coming for you. We've got nothing to be worried about. The only thing we have to fear is ourselves at this point."

"I think the voters in my district say, 'Hey, here's a representative that represents his district, he delivers results, he fights for his district, where he agrees with the president, we see that he's representing our district, but he's not afraid to stand up and show independence as well,'" Rep. Hurd said.
Rep. Case said the elections will definitely be a referendum on the president and that the most influential question for voters is whether the "Rs [are] capable of checking and balancing this president, or Ds."

- House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) stayed mum when asked Thursday whether Democratic leadership was planning to punish Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (D-WA) for breaking ranks and siding with Republicans on procedural votes.
"We'll have more to say about the situation when we have more to say about the situation," he told reporters at a press conference.
Reps. Gluesenkamp Perez and Jared Golden (D-ME) have crossed the aisle on two occasions in recent weeks to help Republicans on procedural votes to ensure legislation came to the floor for a vote. It's extremely rare for members of the minority party to help the majority on procedural votes.
The first instance was a few weeks ago, when they voted for a rule to bring several measures to the floor, including a lobstermen bill they supported, but also GOP priorities like a resolution to condemn socialism and bills to roll back environmental protections and bar universities from participatin...

Additionally, Carney welcomed the previous day's proposal from European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen to become the European Union's first associate member.

- Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) touted the work of House Republicans during the 119th Congress as lawmakers left Washington for an extended recess ahead of the November midterms, calling it "one of the most productive" Congresses in history.
"House Republicans are going now back to our districts. We're going to make the case to the American people on what we have delivered on their behalf," he told reporters Wednesday evening. "The media certainly doesn't do this for us, so we've got to go tell them the truth."
The speaker highlighted Republicans' "big, beautiful" tax cuts bill as well as the creation of Trump Accounts, which are designed to help kids save and invest money for their future. He also spoke about measures he said have created jobs, promoted safety and order in cities, and secured the southern border.
"That is Republicans' proven agenda of results, and there's so much more," he said. "And by the way, every Democrat voted against everythin...

- President Trump on Wednesday evening said he told Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh to vote for an interest rate hike because other Fed officials were expected to do so anyway.
"I told — I talked to Kevin, and I said, 'You might as well vote with the board because it's not going to matter," he said after landing in North Carolina for a campaign event. "The board is very hostile. They're very political. They're doing the wrong thing. They're a bunch of politicians.'"
The president then told reporters he didn't try to "convince" him to vote a certain way and that he wants Mr. Warsh to be "independent."
"I didn't convince him. I said do what you want. I said do what you want because it doesn't matter because he doesn't have the votes," he said. "I want him to be independent, but it's my opinion, I'm very good at this stuff, interest rates are too high."

- President Trump said Wednesday the Kennedy Center could be "ripped down" if he doesn't get "recognition" for repairing the iconic performing arts center.
"For the Trump administration, for me, to get involved and to take that on long term and to carry it, or to raise money to carry it, I think that the Trump administration should certainly have recognition," he told reporters after landing in North Carolina. "Because frankly, if we don't do that, it's going to close. It'll end up being ripped down."
The president claimed the Kennedy Center was "a mess" and "a loser, financially."
"It's in very, very bad shape, very dangerous shape," he said. "You see steel falling down. You see plaster falling off ceilings. You see a lot of dangers. It's been very badly maintained for 25 years."
On Tuesday, a federal judge again blocked the Kennedy Center's Trump-appointed board from adding President Trump's name to the living memorial to the nation's...

- On March 23rd, 2000, Dolly Parton spoke at the National Press Club. The topic: Youth literacy. Here's how Dolly opened:
But this is quite a town, I have to tell you, being here in D.C. I'm not running for office, but I certainly have had a lot of politicians checking out my platform. Bet I could stir up something around here, with Bill Clinton, now that Hillary's in New York and all, maybe. Just joking. I mean, I shouldn't be making fun of my Southern brothers, should I?
That may be the closest Dolly Parton ever got to politics – or at least, publicly expressing a direct opinion on partisan politics.
But even if Dolly Parton avoided politics, politicians hardly avoided her – the connection: her hit timeless song 9 to 5.
A staple of many campaign playlists — and much political rhetoric.

Which male politicians appropriated 9 to 5 for their own political purpose...
