A federal judge lifted the ban on CNN, MS NOW and Politico, saying it was likely issued without due process. The ruling came after the Trump administration had revoked the news organizations' credentials, preventing them from accessing White House briefings and events.

The judge found that the ban violated the First Amendment and was likely to succeed on its merits. The White House did not immediately comment on the decision, but the outlets were allowed back into the briefing room shortly after the ruling.

The case highlights ongoing tensions between the media and the administration over press freedoms.
