Secretary of State Marco Rubio just did what the White House press corps hates most: he said the quiet part out loud and refused to pretend three legacy outlets are owed a desk in the West Wing.
In a pointed exchange with NBC, Rubio tore into the habit of treating Tehran’s talking points like gospel while treating American officials like the unreliable narrators. The ban isn’t a shutdown of CNN, MS NOW, or Politico. It’s the end of the complimentary office space. They can still cover the administration. They just don’t get to camp out inside the building after years of treating the president’s words as optional and a hostile regime’s claims as fact.
Rubio’s argument is simple and, to anyone outside the Beltway, painfully obvious: access is a privilege, not a constitutional timeshare.
🚨 HOLY CRAP! Sec. Marco Rubio just went off on fake news liars to NBC's face

"It sounds like they're ROOTING FOR IRAN! Anything Iran says they treat as TRUE and they DOWNPLAY American officials."
"[CNN/MSNOW/Politico] aren't BANNED...they can cover the White House. They just…
Post continues:
... They just can't have a DESK there!" 🔥
"Why should we have people in that building not honestly covering his administration?! We're not CLOSING CNN. Police and soldiers aren't kicking down their doors and unplugging them from the grid!"
He's right: several media outlets take the Islamic regime as more truthful than Trump.They will take anti-American propaganda, publish it as FACT, and then don't even give half the coverage to when America debunks it
No more special privileges. I am sure 3 news outlets have reporters who can fill those roles with HONESTY
Rubio unleashed!
