      Yup. Any headline like this just means that the Supreme Court hasn’t had the opportunity to overturn the decision for him.

    While I agree the AP should be allowed to continue with the privileges they had prior to shitler’s tantrum, whats to stop some right wing nut job from using this same decision to demand access under the next dem president? Maybe trump grants RT unfettered access as a good little asset should. In comes a new dem pres that tries to curtail that. Then they use this exact decision to override that.

        The devil will be in the details. The article doesn’t specify how the judge worded the ruling and I haven’t kept close enough attention to this issue to know what specific mechanism shitler and company used to block access. I was just remarking that the nut jobs won’t hesitate to abuse some interpretation to their advantage.
