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.
