A federal judge has just ruled in favor of the news outlets the Trump administration kicked out of the White House.

Judge Timothy J. Kelly backed CNN, MS NOW and Politico in their fight against the executive branch. According to a ruling filed early Thursday morning, Kelly ruled the reporters' press credentials were revoked without providing "constitutionally adequate due process."
