And this is why the presidency matters, you get to appoint federal judges all over the country.
I heard a radio interview within the past month explaining that because there are sooo many federal judicial appointments it's courtesy for the minority party to rubber stamp them. However, the Dems have disregarded that courtesy for Trump appointees and called for the official process to be followed. This is why there is a huge backlog of appointments that haven't budged.
I'll see if I can find a link.

Exactly. One really shouldnt sue claiming he didnt touch someone when he actually did. Furthermore--here is an article explaining the process of getting a "hard pass"---which is what was revoked from Acosta. The reality is, Acosta had the kind of "hard pass" access to the White House that many many other reporters are routinely denied. Not really sure how he is going to sue successfully given that CNN can send anyone else it wishes to the White House and they will be granted access to the press room. CNN wasnt kicked out---just the individual. Furthermore, Acosta himself is still eligible to apply daily for a "day pass" just like any one of hundreds of other reporters do every day. The bottom line is hundreds of reporters are routinely denied a "hard pass" due to space limitations. A hard pass is not a right. Acosta had a hard pass and he abused the privilege...there are often consequences to abusing a privilege.

Nobody is preventing CNN or Jim Acosta from saying anything he wishes. His rights are no more infringed than mine--I have no hard pass to the White House.

Acostic is that kid in class that is a constant disruption. The good days were when they were absent. White House Press core is probably happy he's absent.
Also the WH is not stopping Acostic from attending press briefings. He still can apply for a press pass. A hard pass granted him the privilege of not having to get a press pass everyday.

If that should ensue Trump has the right to ignore him too. Let Accoster rant and rave, he does so anyway without a reason.

The government doesn't run CNN. Therefore they ARE free.

CNN can have another reporter just not a idiot like Acussta. Maybe Sarah Huckabee-Sanders should sue for Acussta for harassment.

So now CNN is good with wasting tax payer dollars?
They can tell Jim to **** off if they want to.

I tried watching CNN this morning. Three hours of, "Orange man bad." Nothing else. Literally, nothing else.

I used to get almost all my news from them. They are just flat out unwatchable.

I watch a few minutes just so I know what others are seeing and saying. The biggest thing I walk away with is how over the top CNN is at spinning everything Trump related in the the most negative possible way....for 2 years...and havent been right yet. Then CNN will whimper and whine when Trump treats CNN with the same disdain after watching how he's treated during the ongoing CNN Trump-Hate-A-Thon....Seriously? Man up CNN.

You don't even need to watch. Just go to RCP and read the headlines on CNN articles. Then you don't give them clicks or viewership. Mindless deceitful talking points.
That's the sad part, Its really hard to see what the other side is thinking (applies to a lot of the rightist articles as well). Most articles aren't thought, just mindless, annoying talking points.

It's unwatchable unless you are a hardcore progressive/leftist. Even the network news morning shows are bad. I can't recall the last time CBS news didn't open with a news story that was negative against Trump at the 7 am (EST) hour.
