CNN newsman back in White HouseBy A PCNN’s Jim Acosta is back at the White House after a federal judge ordered the Trump administration to immediately return his press credentials, though a lawsuit over the revocation is continuing. The White House revoked Acosta’s credentials last week after he and President Donald Trump tangled verbally during a press conference. CNN sued and asked the judge to issue a temporary restraining order. US District Court Judge Timothy Kelly, an appointee of President Donald Trump, said Friday that Acosta’s credentials must be reactivated to allow him access to the White House complex for press briefings and other events. Trump said the White House is “writing up rules and regulations” for reporters.
