Episode 1476: Press Pool

Episode 28: Associated Press v. Taylor Budowich Associated Press v. Taylor Budowich, argued before a three-judge panel in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit on April 17, 2025. Argued by Eric D. McArthur (on behalf of Appellants Taylor Budowich, et al.) and Charles D. Tobin (on behalf of Appellee Associated Press). Lawyers for the Trump administration are seeking a stay on the DC District Court's preliminary injunction rescinding “the denial of the AP's access to the Oval Office, Air Force One, and other limited spaces based on the AP's viewpoint.” Case Background, from the Memorandum and Order of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia: About two months ago, President Donald Trump renamed the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America. The Associated Press did not follow suit. For that editorial choice, the White House sharply curtailed the AP's access to coveted, tightly controlled media events with the President. The AP now sues the White House chief of staff, her communications deputy, and the press secretary (collectively, “the Government”), seeking a preliminary injunction enjoining the Government from excluding it because of its viewpoint.  Today, the Court grants that relief. But this injunction does not limit the various permissible reasons the Government may have for excluding journalists from limited-access events. It does not mandate that all eligible journalists, or indeed any journalists at all, be given access to the President or nonpublic government spaces. It does not prohibit government officials from freely choosing which journalists to sit down with for interviews or which ones' questions they answer. And it certainly does not prevent senior officials from publicly expressing their own views. No, the Court simply holds that under the First Amendment, if the Government opens its doors to some journalists—be it to the Oval Office, the East Room, or elsewhere—it cannot then shut those doors to other journalists because of their viewpoints. The Constitution requires no less. Resources: District Court Memorandum and OrderCourt Listener Docket The Institute for Free Speech promotes and defends the political speech rights to freely speak, assemble, publish, and petition the government guaranteed by the First Amendment.

The White House is ending the practice of letting an outside association decide who gets access to the president and who doesn't. An organization known as the White House Correspondents' Association used to control a good amount of press access to the White House, and now the Trump administration is replacing it with a new White House Press Pool while promising more access to new outlets.In other news, illegal immigrants in the United States will now need to register with the federal government within the next 30 days. As part of this, they will be fingerprinted, and those who fail to register will face civil penalties. The decision was announced by Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, who said this is an act to enforce the Alien Registration Act.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1: 3:05pm- The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is requesting that all federal employees submit an email outlining their accomplishments over the past week. In a post to X, Elon Musk suggested that a failure to respond could lead to termination. Leadership at the FBI, Office of Personnel Management (OPM), and the Department of Homeland Security said that responses to DOGE would not be necessary. Other agencies—like Health and Human Services—expect their employees to comply with DOGE's request. 3:30pm- During Tuesday's press briefing, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt revealed that the Trump Administration will no longer allow the White House Correspondents' Association to select which journalists receive exclusive access to President Donald Trump. 3:40pm- Yesterday, news circulated that the Philadelphia Eagles would decline a trip to the White House to celebrate their Super Bowl victory. It turns out, the report—which originated in The Sun—was completely false. Later in the day, several sports journalists noted that the Eagles are excited to visit the Trump White House and are looking forward to officially receiving an invitation. 3:50pm- Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director Kash Patel has selected conservative podcast host, and former Secret Service agent, Dan Bongino to serve as the bureau's next Deputy Director.

Former Chief Assistant U.S. Attorney and National Review Contributing Editor Andy McCarthy joins Greg on today's 3 Martini Lunch in place of Jim. They discuss the White House taking control over press pool selections, Trump's tariffs jeopardizing a major political and economic opportunity with Canada, and CNN's Jake Tapper writing a book about the cover-up of Joe Biden's decline—after helping cover it up himself.First, Andy and Greg analyze the White House's new policy on press pool access for the Oval Office and Air Force One. While Andy thinks the White House wording on the policy shift is over the top, he says the the Trump press team has largely made a point of adding new voices rather than silencing others.Next, they critique Trump's plan to impose 25 percent tariffs on Canada and Mexico starting in March. Beyond the likelihood of higher prices for Americans, they highlight how these tensions have weakened Canada's conservative party, which once seemed poised for a massive victory but is now struggling. While Trump shouldn't prioritize Canadian politics, a conservative government there would align far better with his policies than Justin Trudeau's far-left successor.Finally, they call out the stunning hypocrisy of CNN's Jake Tapper. After downplaying and denying Biden's cognitive decline for years, Tapper is now co-authoring a book exposing Biden's decline and the efforts to conceal it. Andy and Greg document how Biden's decline was blatantly obvious for anyone honestly paying attention.Please visit our great sponsors: We've got you covered with a 35% discount!

Hosts: Erin Rider and Taylor Morgan  Analysis of Pres. Trump’s first Cabinet meeting  While not a Senate-confirmed member of the Cabinet, Elon Musk dominated much of today's first Cabinet meeting in President Trump's second term. Some people were expecting a rather awkward meeting between Musk and the secretaries after a few of them pushed back on Musk's recent efforts to cut waste in their departments. Inside Sources has analysis of the topics covered and the direction Pres. Trump is taking his Cabinet.    On the Hill 2025: Legislature’s bill addressing elections laws released  A top priority for the Majority in the Utah House of Representatives this legislative session has been addressing concerns on elections. Earlier in the session, we spoke with State Representative Jefferson Burton about some of those bills. Now, we’re seeing some major updates to House Bill 300, which addresses vote-by-mail. Representative Burton joins the show again to answer questions from host Erin Rider and Inside Sources Executive Producer Andy Cupp.    On the Hill 2025: Funding Salt Lake City’s Downtown Revitalization project  Downtown Salt Lake City is going to see some major changes in the next few years as the Delta Center and surrounding areas undergo a massive transformation. But one question with all of this has been the future of the Salt Palace Convention Center... and who’s going to pay for it. The Inside Sources hosts discuss a Senate bill that addresses these questions.    On the Hill 2025: Restrictions on investors buying single-family homes  Housing availability and housing affordability -- we don't mean to sound like a broken record, but these are important issues to Utahns. And it's going to take a range of solutions to fix the issue. State Representative Gay Lynn Bennion is offering a proposal that would restrict investors from buying single-family homes, giving regular people a better opportunity to own a home. She joins the show to share more.    On the Hill 2025: Increasing housing density around transit lines, stations  In places like the Salt Lake and Utah Valleys, we’re eventually going to run up against the mountains or the lakes... running out of room to continue spreading out. This means we might need to focus on building upwards instead. And according to State Senator Wayne Harper, a great place to do that would be around transit lines and stops. He joins the program to explain the specifics of his bill.    The White House will decide which news outlets cover the Trump Administration  From the beginning of his second term in office, President Trump has said he would change how the administration is covered by the media. One of his biggest points was to open access to new media outlets. Yesterday, the administration made a pretty big change that goes against roughly 70 years of precedent. KSL NewsRadio News Director Becky Bruce joins to walk the hosts through some of the concerns being shared by journalists.    On the Hill 2025: Bills on judicial standing and appeals  Several bills in this legislative session address the role of the judiciary. A few of these bills address who can bring lawsuits before the courts and what the courts can do with things like appeals. A few weeks ago, we spoke about Senate Bills 203 and 204 -- both sponsored by State Senator Brady Brammer. Today, he joins Erin and Taylor for a discussion on the pair of bills.    Pres. Trump proposes penalties for migrants who don’t register with the government  Fines or prison time could be coming for migrants who are here illegally and don't register with a new database meant to track "aliens in this country illegally." It’s part of President Trump’s efforts to crack down on illegal immigration. The Inside Sources hosts finish the show discussing this registry and potential far-reaching effects.

“Moving forward, the White House press pool will be determined by the White House press team. Legacy outlets who have participated in the press pool for decades will still be allowed to join. Fear not, but we will also be offering the privilege to well-deserving outlets.” White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt announced that the White House would now determine which journalists are allowed in the White House press pool, sidelining the Associated Press from select events including the Oval Office and Air Force One coverage. The White House claims the move will expand access to new media voices, but critics, including the White House Correspondents Association (WHCA), are calling it a direct attack on press freedom. WHCA President Eugene Daniels responded, saying "This move tears at the independence of a free press in the United States. It suggests the government will choose the journalists who cover the president. In a free country, leaders must not be able to choose their own press corps."

What's it like being in a president's presence at big moments? What about at small ones, as when the commander-in-chief offers to buy you a burger? It's all part of working in the press pool, where a hand-picked gaggle of reporters chronicles the president's moves in real time and faithfully feeds detailed missives to the wider media. Linda Feldmann, who has cycled through the work for two decades, and Sophie Hills, who's just getting her feet wet, joined veteran D.C. writer and our podcast's guest host to describe the work and tell some tales.

In this hour of the show, the discussion starts with a focus on Joe Biden's access to power and how foreign business people valued having access to the Vice President during business calls with his son, Hunter Biden. Former Senator Jim Talent shares his thoughts on the matter, expressing his belief that there was clear evidence of Joe Biden's involvement in his son's business dealings. The conversation then shifts to President Trump's indictment in Washington, DC, with Jim Talent expressing concerns about the lack of clear criminal charges in the indictment and suggesting that it may be politically motivated. The host also raises the question of whether these indictments would have happened if Trump were not running for president. In the next segment, the discussion centers around the White House's new rules limiting access to the press pool and how it affects journalists. Fred Lucas, chief news correspondent and manager of investigative reporting for The Daily Signal, shares his experience as one of the reporters impacted by the new rules. The conversation covers the new requirements set by the White House, such as being credentialed to cover Congress or the Supreme Court and having a physical address in the DC area. The hosts express concerns about the lack of transparency and the potential for political bias in choosing which media outlets can cover the White House. They also compare the press availability of former President Trump with President Biden. To wrap up the hour, Marc Cox reacts to Eric Trump comments on The Biden Crime Family,

During his daily press briefing on June 15, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov commented on the news that the independent television channel Dozhd had been removed from the presidential press pool. In response to questions from journalists about how this decision was made, Peskov insisted that the presidential press service opted to kick Dozhd out because the television channel allegedly incited and organized unauthorized protests. Following Peskov's briefing, Dozhd released a statement underscoring that it has never acted as a protest organizer and that its coverage of unsanctioned rallies is guided by Russian legislation.

(Originally aired 1/3/21, but that was a weird week as you might recall. Plus, Julie's wicked awesome!) Julie Mason, a White House correspondent with the Houston Chronicle, Washington Examiner and Politico, has been the host of The Press Pool on SiriusXM's POTUS channel since 2011 and will now have a new show called Julie Mason Mornings @MasonMornings. What's it like to be in the WH press corps? How different is it from one administration to another? Are politicians and Press Secretaries different on camera vs. off camera? Which tv show is most accurate: West Wing, House of Cards or Veep? And of course, isn't the entirety of the "MSM" completely in the tank for Hugo Chavez's zombie army that took over the election? Some of the answers may shock you!

Times Union Capitol correspondent Emilie Munson recounts her latest shift at the White House this week as the president welcomed law enforcement officials to discuss potential police reforms. Also on this episode, investigative reporter Chris Bragg describes his recent deep dive into the cases of five children who died at the the hands of their parents, despite warnings in New York family courts. This episode includes descriptions of situations that may be difficult for some to hear, so take care as you listen.

Why do they lie and cheat?  We break down the stories and consider a wide range of reasons to explain and understand their behavior.

We're back with a seasonal episode featuring AHAMAD CHILDRESS (@AhmadChildress), fellow podcaster, fellow nerd and politics savant extraordinaire! We discuss his Los Angeles roots, the microcosm that is California, his work covering the entertainment field and his outstanding TV podcasts. We're then joined by #POOLIGANS favorites @jojofromjerz and @DeniseTut to talk impeachment, Trump fatigue, appropriately sized Halloween candies and also tackle The Great Candy Corn Debate (as if there was such a thing -- it's not a candy and is objectively bad sorry Jo and Denise!)

For our first dip into the #POOLIGANS pool in Season 3, we meet Brad Williams (@FuriousBrad), longtime @POTUSPressPool fan and man who will beat you at the "Whose First Job Was Worse?" game every single time. We discuss his interest in politics, the life of an aspiring sports announcer, North Carolina politics and why joining a church choir with your wife is always a great idea. Brad regales us with tales of his previous careers in bouncing and hand modeling (these were not concurrent). Then we're joined by audience favorites @BubblesVampire and @SObernauer and find out how to sell insurance policies in adult entertainment establishments and we uncover the rarest and most precious of species: Cheese aware cats!

We're baaAAaack! Season 3 of the #POOLIGANS podcast opens in grand style with @POTUSPressPool fan favorite LIZ GOODWIN (@lizcgoodwin) of the Boston Globe! Longtime listeners will of course remember her from her time at Yahoo News and as a SiriusXM co-host with one [checks notes] Olivier Knox. Tune in to learn more about finding a journalism job during the 2008 collapse, Liz's days as a posh hotel reviewer, how her own family heritage led to a great, personal piece on Elizabeth Warren and why Dancing With The Stars can feel a bit invasive. Oh, and that 2020 field of Dem candidates of course -- Liz has great insights you'll want to hear!

To celebrate the podcast's one year anniversary we present POOLIGANSPALOOZA, a multi-night event with all your favorite #POOLIGANS! What has changed for this motley crew during our first year and what has stayed the same? We wanted to know, sent out the pooli-signal and over a dozen of our most valiant responded!

The good, the bad, the funny and the punny...take a listen!

Yes ladies and gentlemen, it's true! On this here season 2 finale of the @pooliganspod we are joined by none other than the one, the only, the incomparable JULIE MASON (@juliemason) and learn about all the things: her youth as a punk rocker, her deep love for the great state of Texas, finding her tribe as a White House correspondent, meeting miracle man and partner in crime Patrick Ferrise and running the @POTUSPressPool, simply the best politics and journalism show out there. You VERY OBVIOUSLY don't want to miss this one!

Tonight's episode is fully entitled, "He Ain't Heavy - He's My Brother (Pathological Functionality)" Tonight's topic comes out of two articles regarding last Thursday's White House unofficial meeting with the Press Pool, which starred hip hop singer Kanye West. One article, from the Daily Beast (an often sensationalized & hyperbolic 2nd tier media source), chastising comics and the media for shaming West's problems, even though his behavior has become outrageous, scandalous, and to most who know him personally, a clear indicator that he is in clinical distress of some kind. The other article was from Esquire Magazine (left-biased but considered much more factual and responsible), and it asserts in spirit that friends, media and peers have not held West accountable ENOUGH, and that much of this happens because he senses he can get away with it, and we've proven him right. So, what is the real issue here, deep down? Tonight, we will discuss: An Overview of the recent Kanye West incident Other examples and discussions of mental illnesses, physical illnesses, and other pathologies that drastically alter behavior and cogency to address it.Responsibility, Accountability, Culpability, and Pragmatism How to decide boundaries for yourself regarding others in your life who appear to need intervention  

Climate used to have bipartisan support. Now that the Republican party is skeptical about fighting climate, companies are moving into a leadership void. On the show today we'll hear from two former white house spokesmen in Republican and Democratic administrations now working on climate from different angles. Robert Gibbs addresses what McDonald's is doing to cut its carbon emissions and environmental impact. Jeff Nesbit heads a communications organization trying to get the climate story covered more prominently in the mainstream news media. Guests Robert Gibbs, Executive Vice President and Global Chief Communications Officer, McDonald's Corporation Jeff Nesbit, Author and Executive Director, Climate Nexus

@d_twit gets the chance to sit down with investigative reporter and POTUS Press Pool guest extraordinaire BILL MYERS (@billcaphill) for a fascinating discussion of his 20 year career, his insights into US politics, his admiration for @julimason and the POTUS Press Pool, dive bars, his most cherished cheese and a cure for news deserts...hint: it involves all of us getting off our butts!

On this episode of Talking Terror, the boys go back to the 90's by way of 2017. The Ghoul of Geek Keith has chosen "Super Dark Times" directed by Kevin Phillips to discuss! It's a film that has been compared to such off beat films like Donnie Darko and River's Edge. While this is not your typical horror film, the Talking Terror crew will have plenty to discuss as the super dark elements of Super Dark Times definitely have a horrific edge. Break out the flannel, ripped jeans, and general 90's malaise as they discuss the film that many consider suspenseful, thrilling, and super dark! Also, sound the alarm as we have Halloween 2018 bits to discuss! Will instagram and social media be a negative tool for this film? February marks the Soska twins "Women in Horror Month" and Talking Terror is officially in the Press Pool for all the fun! The King of Horror will talk about that as well as a new program called "Fear Haus" hosted by the one and only Horror Hostess; Blair Bathory and so much more so tune in! It's going to be a super fun ride! 

Host of Press Pool on Sirius XM, Julie Mason goes against WaPo's Dana Milbank. They try to figure out Betsy DeVos's real first name and bond over their mutual love of CNN's Jake Tapper.
