The emergency application filed on Thursday, seeks to set aside a lower-court ruling that limits the administration's ability to carry out so-called third-country removals while the wider legal challenge continues.

The development came only hours after U.S. District Judge Timothy Kelly issued a 14-day temporary restraining order directing the administration to return, reinstate and restore the White House hard-pass credentials of employees of the three outlets.

A federal judge has ordered the President Donald Trump administration to immediately restore CNN, MS NOW and Politico’s access to the White House, ruling that the journalists were deprived of their press credentials without constitutionally adequate due process.

Donald Trump says the United States will replace “artificial intelligence” with “super intelligence” in government documents, pairing the proposed rebranding with a rejection of international efforts to control the technology.

The US Justice Department has told a federal court that President Donald Trump has the authority to bar CNN, MS NOW and Politico reporters from parts of the White House.

He said the United States was weighing whether to pursue an agreement that would allow Iran to rebuild and develop economically or intensify pressure on Tehran, warning that the alternative could mean driving the country “into hell”.

The administration of President Donald Trump has launched a 24-hour online television channel, “TRUMP TV: The Essentials Station”, after the White House banned journalists from three major news organisations.

The three organisations announced the legal action Monday, accusing the White House of revoking their press credentials without notice or due process because of their reporting.

The decision breaks with a longstanding system under which the major US television networks rotate responsibility for providing pool coverage of the president and distributing the footage to the wider press corps.

The action came less than a day after Trump announced that the three organisations would no longer be permitted on White House grounds, escalating his long-running confrontation with sections of the American media.
