On Saturday, September 26, 2026, President Donald Trump, while speaking with reporters outside the White House, told a female journalist to be quiet after she asked about press pool restrictions. He had banned CNN, MSNBC, and Politico from the White House, but a federal judge blocked that decision. Trump also dismissed former President Barack Obama's comment that women govern better as ridiculous. He additionally discussed AI development and urged Ukrainian President Zelenskyy to make a deal to end the war with Russia.
