The White House blocked Politico from traveling aboard Air Force One on Monday, preventing the outlet from carrying out its scheduled duties in the presidential press pool amid an ongoing legal fight with the Trump administration. Politico was set to serve as the out-of-town print pool reporter for President Donald Trump’s trip to Nebraska, but was excluded from the traveling press group, a spokesperson for the outlet confirmed to TheWrap. The exclusion underscores the limits of the outlets’ recent court victory: CNN, MS NOW and Politico regained access to the White House grounds last month, but the administration has continued restricting their participation in limited-capacity presidential events, including on Air Force One.

U.S. District Judge Timothy Kelly subsequently ordered the White House to restore the outlets’ press credentials. The three organizations regained access to the White House grounds hours after the ruling following another court standoff. The temporary order applies to access to…
