Trump Tells CNN ‘You Should Not Be Here’ As He Arrives At UN
CNN says it is covering Trump under United Nations credentials as it fights a White House ban that prompted a pool boycott by other networks.
- On Tuesday, President Donald Trump encountered CNN correspondent Kaitlan Collins at United Nations Headquarters, visibly frustrated by her presence as he arrived to address the General Assembly.
- The White House banned CNN, MS NOW, and Politico over coverage that angered Trump; the three outlets filed suit on Monday alleging First Amendment and Fifth Amendment violations.
- Collins questioned Trump on polling showing 2/3 of Americans don't think the U.S. is winning the war with Iran while clarifying her presence relied on United Nations credentials, not White House access.
- Trump told Collins, "You should not be here covering me," while CNN vowed to continue reporting on the president despite White House efforts to restrict its access.
- A federal judge scheduled a hearing for Wednesday afternoon on the legal challenge as CNN remained committed to covering the president from the United Nations under its credentials.
