New: Andrew Feinberg, the reporter that Trump snapped at here, was slated to serve as the print pool reporter on Thursday.
Feinberg confirms to me that, without explanation, the White House told him today that he would no longer be the print pooler on Trump's Thursday trip.
Donald Trump lost his temper at a journalist during an Oval Office press conference, calling him a “sick person”.
The US president raged at The Independent’s Andrew Feinberg after he asked him questions about his golf course and his new tip-off hotline designed to expose fraudsters.

This is regarding @AndrewFeinberg being removed as the print pool reporter for Thursday:
The White House Correspondents' Association strongly objects to the decision to restrict a journalist’s coverage simply because the president didn’t care for their questioning. That is retaliation. The American public's right to an independent press depends on reporters being able to do their jobs without fear that challenging the president will cut off their access.

In response to a lawsuit demanding state voter rolls, an Oregon judge wrote that the Trump administration’s actions undermined the judiciary’s longstanding trust in the Justice Department.
He called the government’s actions “chilling.”

Trump: We were in the midst of negotiating and a lot of stupid people said why aren’t you putting Russian sanctions—
Collins: But you said you didn’t give anything for his release
Trump: If I didn’t do that, you wouldn’t have him coming back.
Collins: So you did give something.
Trump: You don’t know anything. You’re fake news CNN.
Collins: You’re saying you lifted the sanctions in exchange for his release?
Trump: You don’t know what you’re talking about. You’re a low IQ person. You’re a dummy.

As you know, none of these are examples of a school secretly sending a child for surgery without their parents’ consent, which is what the president has been claiming over and over. If he wants to join his aides and other conservatives in criticizing how some states/schools are handling social transitions and broader gender issues, he’s free to do so.
— Staff at Algonquin Regional High School in Massachusetts facilitated a 15-year-old girl’s "transition" through after-school "counseling" they led her parents to believe was math help.
— A school psychologist in California's Arcadia Unified School District encouraged a young girl to "transition" instead of treating her depression — and when the girl's mother refused to go along with the school's scheme, she lost custody. Tragically, the young girl went on to die by suicide.
— Teachers at Buena Vista Middle School in California taught a young girl how to bind her breasts and referred to her using sex-rejecting pronouns — without telling her mother.
— A school counselor at the Great Salt Bay Community School in Maine gave a 13-year-old girl chest binders and instructed the girl to conceal it from her mother.
— Leon County School District in Florida created a "student support plan" to facilitate the "transition" of a middle school child, without notifying the child's parents.
— The California Department of Education led a concerted, illegal effort to pressure schools to hide gender "transitions" from parents.
— Public schools in Kansas City, Kansas, directed staff to develop "transition" plans for their students without parental knowledge or consent.

Two days after @BoutrousTed sent a letter to the DOJ threatening further legal action if the White House keeps excluding CNN from Air Force One, the White House is at it again.
Today is CNN’s turn to fulfill both in-town and out-of-town TV pool duties, but the White House press office left the network off the list for Trump’s trip to South Carolina, so as a result there will be no pooled TV coverage of the trip.
Boutrous said in the letter that he needs to hear back from the administration by Thursday at 5 p.m. Eastern, or CNN “will be forced to pursue additional judicial relief…”

While overseeing a case involving President Trump's plans to renovate D.C.'s East Potomac Golf Course, Judge Reyes said she trusted DOJ lawyers to give the court and preservationists notice before major changes.
Instead, the administration gave about 14 hours' notice before cutting down 429 trees. nbcnews.com/politics/white-h…

I find the timing notable:
In 2024, it was the final months of the campaign when Trump introduced his vivid lies about schools sending kids off for secret gender surgeries.
In 2026, he’s revived the lies for the final weeks of the campaign.

If you're a business or artist with intellectual property, watch the clock.
10 days until Meta claims the right to scrape your website to develop its AI. Your consent? Apparently unnecessary. All it takes is someone sharing a link on Facebook or Instagram - or you using Meta's services.
As Nieman Lab first reported (and followed up Saturday after Meta announced a revision), Meta is unilaterally updating its commercial terms next week in a manner that might claim sweeping rights over intellectual property across the open web.
Significant concerns remain. 1/3

Slowly but surely, the leading AI companies are creating a national self-governing structure to oversee their technology and its societal impact.
Not since the age of the robber barons have America's industrial titans wielded such sweeping power to shape society — and decide how their private fortunes should serve the public good. axios.com/2026/10/20/ai-gove…

This is irresponsible amplification of false information attempting to discredit a free and independent press simply for reporting the facts. Our statement replying to @RobertKennedyJr:
ALT “This is irresponsible amplification of false information attempting to discredit a free and independent press simply for reporting the facts. As we stated yesterday, Sheryl has not met Jack Leslie and has not spoken to any member of the NIH hospital board. She and her colleagues on The Times’s team covering HHS produce factual, accurate and responsible journalism that cuts through political rhetoric and provides valuable reporting for the public, all of whom benefit from clear and trustworthy information on public health.” — Charlie Stadtlander, a spokesperson for The New York Times
.@SherylNYT reporting on HHS is a three-legged stool resting on: 1. Anonymous sources, 2. Compromised sources with undisclosed conflicts of interest, and 3. Sinister speculation masquerading as fact—all in service to her unhinged hatred of Donald Trump. #TDS

Spotify's mission to curb the rise of AI-generated music has resulted in the removal of 50 million AI slop tracks from users’ recommendations.
The 50 million removed tracks follow the more than 75 million AI songs that Spotify pulled completely from the platform after they were flagged as spam. According to Spotify, the 50 million AI-generated tracks are still available but a user would have to actively seek them out to find them.
