I don't understand why other journalists allow the WH to ban the AP by continuing to attend the press conferences? The meetings are streamed, so we wouldn't miss anything if the networks and major newspapers refused to attend in person. This is an ethical issue even more than a legal issue.

This time, let's not allow ourselves to be distracted by cultural debates. Let's remember that an assassin was able to make a ghost gun, on his 3d printer, at home, because the GOP refused to regulate the practice. Regardless of motive, that feels totally preventable.
