Get Off My Lawn

The White House is suspending CNN Chief White House correspondent Jim Acosta's press credentials for what WH Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders deemed "absolutely unacceptable" conduct.
"I’ve just been denied entrance to the WH," Acosta tweeted. "Secret Service just informed me I cannot enter the WH grounds for my 8pm hit."
Sanders announced the punishment in a lengthy statement on Wednesday night, several hours after Acosta got into verbal fisticuffs with President Trump saying the seizing of his credentials by the Secret Service was because of his “placing hands on a young woman just trying to do her job as a White House intern.”
The arrogant sumbitch can be seen on video pushing away, somewhat forcefully, a young intern who was endeavoring to retrieve the microphone so another member of the press could ask a question during Wednesday’s press conference.
At 4:52 PM, the hero of the resistance recorded his encounter with the Secret Service.  It was reminiscent of the scene in National Lampoon’s “Vacation” in which John Candy said to the Griswold family, “Sorry folks, park's closed. Moose out front shoulda told ya.”
Acosta is not allowed on the White House grounds until further notice.
