News: A federal judge has ordered the White House to restore @BrianKarem's hard pass.
@BoutrousTed tells me he's "very pleased" with the court's decision, adding, "The White House’s suspension of his press credentials violated the First Amendment and due process and was a blatant attempt to chill vigorous reporting about the President.” cnn.com/2019/09/03/med…
Statement from @PressSec: "We disagree with the decision..."
Also, FWIW: Asked if the White House will continue to pursue its legal battle against @BrianKarem (DOJ could appeal or press lawsuit in current court), @PressSec declined to comment.
Spoke just now to @BrianKarem about his victory against the White House: "It's good for me, but it's great for the free press," Karem said. "Today was about all of us." Karem added that he will be at the White House first thing tomorrow morning.
WHCA president @jonkarl says the organization "is gratified" by the @BrianKarem decision, but adds at end, "As we have said repeatedly, we believe everyone should conduct themselves professionally at the White House."
