Jim Acosta is out of the White House.
For Now.
Acosta’s press credentials to the White House were suspended after he manhandled a White House aide during a press conference earlier Wednesday.
This story is developing.
PER TMZ:
Donald Trump went for the jugular Wednesday … calling a CNN reporter unfit for his job and a “terrible person” … and it didn’t end there.
CNN reporter Jim Acosta asked Trump during a news conference about the President’s claim there was an impending invasion by people in the refugee caravan.
The US Secret Service just asked for my credential to enter the WH. As I told the officer, I don’t blame him. I know he’s just doing his job. (Sorry this video is not rightside up) pic.twitter.com/juQeuj3B9R
