A federal judge said he will rule late this week or early next on whether to block the White House from suspending Playboy correspondent and CNN political analyst Brian Karem's hard pass
The White House told Karem earlier this month that it would suspend his pass following a Rose Garden confrontation with pro-Trump radio host Sebastian Gorka on July 11. White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham made good on that promise on August 16, suspending it until September 14.The case has become the latest flashpoint among the rising tension between the Trump White House and the press corps, but the case's facts, the judge said, are murkier than some of the other stand-offs.
"Even bank robbery videos are not this clear," Contreras added.Boutrous criticized Grisham's ability to revoke press passes and the specific steps she's taken such as giving Karem only a day to respond after President Trump approved suspending his pass.Boutrous called her discretion in this case"unbridled, unwieldy, standardless."He also called Grisham the"President's arm who's in direct hostility to what they call the enemy.
