AP sued White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt and two other administration officials, demanding reinstatement.

The White House retaliated against the news outlet last month for not following President Trump ’s executive order to rename the Gulf of Mexico .

The government insisted there was no evidence that AP had been harmed irreparably.

The judge adjourned the case without a decision.

The White House says it has the right to decide who gets to question the president.

The president has dismissed the AP as a group of “radical left lunatics” and said that “we’re going to keep them out until such time as they agree that it’s the Gulf of America ”.
