POLICY WIRE — Washington, D.C. — President Donald Trump has escalated tensions with the press by sharing a satirical video that mimics a female CNN reporter, further fueling his ongoing conflict with mainstream media.

The clip, originally posted on TikTok by film writer Patrick W. Cutler, features him in a pink dress, blonde wig, and lipstick, narrating a mock routine about spreading false information about the president. Trump reposted the video on his Truth Social platform, following a string of criticisms against CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins and other news organizations.

The controversy comes as CNN, POLITICO, and MS NOW were barred from the White House after their press credentials were revoked. The three outlets have since filed a federal lawsuit, arguing that the move is unconstitutional. Trump has also criticized the judge assigned to the case, hinting at an appeal, while Collins defended her outlet’s right to report on the president.
