他的言论是在CNN被禁止随“空军一号”前往田纳西州之后发表的。

His remarks came after CNN was blocked from traveling on Air Force One to Tennessee.

司法部长托德·布兰奇周日多次表示,新闻界成员能进入白宫或随总统乘坐专机是一种“特权”,此前一天,CNN被拒绝随唐纳德·特朗普总统前往田纳西州的“空军一号”行程。

Attorney General Todd Blanche said repeatedly Sunday that it is a “privilege” for members of the press to be in the White House or fly with the president, a day after CNN was kept off Air Force One for President Donald Trump’s trip to Tennessee.

在接受ABC节目《本周》主持人玛莎·拉达茨采访时,布兰奇表示:“对任何人来说,能进入白宫都是一种特权。”

Speaking to host Martha Raddatz on ABC’s “This Week,” Blanche said: “It is a privilege to be in the White House for anybody.”

布兰奇随后重申了这一观点:“这是人民的房子。能在那里是一种特权,而非权利。”这位司法部长还主张,总统有权决定谁可以或不可以随他乘坐“空军一号”。CNN原定作为轮值电视记者团成员随特朗普于周六出行,但被白宫拦阻。布兰奇说:“总统有充分的权利决定谁乘坐他的飞机。”

Blanche reiterated the point later: “It is the people’s house. It is a privilege, not a right, to be there.” The attorney general also contended that the president can choose who does or doesn’t travel with him on Air Force One. CNN had been slated to travel with Trump as part of the rotating television press pool Saturday but was blocked from attending by the White House. “The president has every right to decide who flies on his plane,” Blanche said.

周六上午,特朗普在Truth Social上写道:“假新闻不应被允许进入白宫!!!”此次“空军一号”限制令是在联邦地区法院法官蒂莫西·凯利批准临时禁令、恢复《政客》、CNN和MS NOW进入白宫的采访权之后一周内出台的。

On Saturday morning, Trump wrote on Truth Social, “FAKE NEWS SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED IN THE WHITE HOUSE!!!” The Air Force One restriction came at the end of the week that saw U.S. District Judge Timothy Kelly grant a temporary restraining order to restore access to the White House for POLITICO, CNN and MS NOW. Kelly ordered journalists’ credentials returned for at least two weeks while further litigation plays out.

凯利下令在进一步诉讼进行期间,至少两周内归还记者的采访证件。

Among other things, Kelly expressed skepticism about the White House’s contention that national security was at stake if the three news outlets continued to have access to the White House.

除其他事项外,凯利对白宫辩称若这三家媒体继续保有白宫采访权将危及国家安全的说法表示怀疑。

Among other things, Kelly expressed skepticism about the White House’s contention that national security was at stake if the three news outlets continued to have access to the White House.

凯利写道:“法院持怀疑态度——至少基于目前的记录——被告维护国家安全的利益并非实际动机。”

“The Court is skeptical — at least on this record — that Defendants’ interest in safeguarding national security is the actual motivation,” Kelly wrote.

在ABC采访中一段充满争议的对话里,布兰奇告诉拉达茨,由于媒体报道让美国在盟友和朋友面前形象受损,特朗普的禁令涉及国家安全因素。

In a contentious segment of the ABC interview, Blanche told Raddatz there was a national security component to Trump’s ban since the press was making the United States look bad in the eyes of our friends and allies abroad.

“这是为了保护我们的国家,”布兰奇说,“以便当外国领导人、外国政府、世界各地的公民听到政府内部发生的事情时,所获信息是准确的。”

“It is for the protection of our country,” Blanche said, “so that when foreign leaders, when foreign governments, when citizens that are around the world hear what’s happening in the administration, that it happens to be accurate.”
