Attorney General Todd Blanche on Sunday sparred with ABC’s “This Week” host Martha Raddatz over President Trump’s ban on CNN, Politico and MSNOW.
Trump last Friday announced that he has banned CNN, MSNOW, and Politico from the White House for constantly reporting “FAKE NEWS.”
The outlets filed suit on Monday and sought an emergency order to overturn the ban.
A federal judge, in a temporary order, ordered the Trump Administration to restore the affected media outlets’ access to the White House.
On Saturday, CNN was blocked from boarding Air Force One as President Trump traveled to Tennessee.
The Gateway Pundit, Red State Media and Real America’s Voice traveled with President Trump and covered his attendance at the University of Tennessee vs University of Texas football game.
AG Blanche erupted on Martha Raddatz after she tried to put words in his mouth.
“You’re saying you’re gonna screen people before they get on a flight? Come into the White House?” Martha Raddatz asked Blanche.
“I did not say that. You don’t get to put words in my mouth!” Blanche said.
Raddatz interrupted Blanche: “But you said…”
“You don’t get to put words in my mouth. That’s not how it works! You just said, ‘are you saying.’ I didn’t say that,” Blanche said.
