The Justice Department filed a brief late Tuesday ahead of Wednesday's hearing before U.S. District Judge Timothy Kelly, arguing that White House access is a privilege rather than a right, invoking national security concerns over classified reporting. The DOJ also argued that the 1977 Sherrill v. Knight precedent requiring notice and hearing before credential revocation "is wrong and should be overruled."
“access to the White House is a privilege — not a right.”
