The administration of US President Donald Trump has removed the American news agency Associated Press from the traveling press pool accompanying the head of state. As follows from Trump's distributed schedule for Saturday, he will be accompanied by only two news agencies—Reuters and Bloomberg. At the same time, on Friday, the Associated Press, which traditionally was the third agency, in addition to the two mentioned, was also part of the White House traveling pool. Trump is also accompanied by the Fox News TV channel, the New York Post newspaper, and BBC radio. Earlier, the AP accused the Trump administration of violating the Constitution for its decision to restrict the agency's journalists' access to the White House and Air Force One due to the agency's refusal to call the Gulf of Mexico "the Gulf of America."Associated Press journalists were barred from attending the signing of executive orders by US President Donald Trump and a press conference in the Oval Office on Friday, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said.
