ANGELA WEISS/AFP via Getty Images New York Times reporters will reportedly have their Pentagon press credentials reinstated as soon as Monday after a federal judge struck down key restrictions on journalist access. The ruling, handed down Friday by Judge Paul Friedman of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, found that elements of the Defense Department’s media policy were unconstitutional. The decision ordered the immediate reinstatement of press passes for seven Times journalists. Status’s Natalie Korach reported that the Pentagon “indicated” late Sunday that the passes would be restored: New: The Pentagon has indicated that NYT journalists will be given press credentials tomorrow, Status has learned, after a judge ruled the department’s media restrictions unconstitutional — Natalie Korach (@NatalieKorach) March 23, 2026 Hours earlier a spokesperson for The Times confirmed to Korach that the newspaper was “still waiting to hear back” a day after its “legal department sent a letter to Pentagon counsel today asking for restoration on Monday.” The Pentagon had initially declined to comment on questions from Status on whether it would reinstate the press passes, pointing Korach to a tweet from department’s chief spokesperson Sean Parnell that said the Pentagon would be appealing the judge’s ruling. The dispute stems from rules introduced last year that allowed the Pentagon to label reporters “security risks” and revoke access based on conduct it deemed threatening to national security. In response, dozens of journalists — including from Fox News and Newsmax — surrendered their credentials rather than agree to the terms.The post New York Times Reporters Set to Regain Pentagon Access After Court Ruling: Report first appeared on Mediaite.

Two crew members were killed after an Air Canada passenger jet collided with a Port Authority vehicle on a runway late Sunday, grounding all flights and forcing a full shut down at LaGuardia airport. Both the aircraft’s pilot and co-pilot were confirmed killed when the aircraft crashed into a vehicle, that had been responding to a separate incident on the airfield, at around 11:40pm (ET). The plane, operated by Jazz Aviation on behalf of Air Canada, which confirmed the aircraft was carrying 76 people at the time of the collision, including four crew members. The Port Authority said 41 passengers were taken to Elmhurst Hospital and New York-Presbyterian Queens for treatment but that 32 had since been released. Two emergency responders, described as a sergeant and an officer, sustained broken limbs but were reported to be in stable condition. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) revealed that the aircraft was a Bombardier CRJ-900 twin-jet arriving from Montreal when the collision occurred on Runway 4. The plane had reportedly almost completed its landing and was travelling at approximately 30mph at the time of impact. Images from the scene showed the jet stationary on the runway with visible damage to its forward underside, while emergency vehicles surrounded the aircraft in the aftermath. The Port Authority described the vehicle involved as an aircraft rescue and firefighting truck, staffed by police officers. Officials have not yet detailed why it was positioned on the runway as the plane approached. LaGuardia Airport was immediately closed following the crash, with the FAA confirming that no flights would depart or arrive until at least 2pm (ET) Monday. The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) issued its own statement via X, explaining it has deployed a “go team” and would send additional investigators later Monday, while the FAA confirmed it is conducting its own inquiry.

[TheTopNews] Read More.2 hours ago - Trump Warns Republicans: No Compromise on DHS Deal Until ‘Country Destroyingâ€...President Donald Trump on Sunday night urged Republican lawmakers to avoid making any deals to fund the Department of Homeland Security and end the partial government shutdown until enough of the “Crazy” Democrats flip their votes and pass the Save America Act. Trump threatened Republican lawmakers with banishment from the GOP if they dare go against the legislation, which the president has been pushing hard for in recent weeks. The SAVE America Act would require citizens provide photo identification to vote in federal elections, as well as limit the number of mail-in ballots. It would also make what Trump called “Transgender MUTILIZATION” — a misspelling of “mutilation” — of minors illegal and bar trans athletes from competing in women’s sports. The president shared his thoughts in a post on Truth Social. “I don’t think we should make any deal with the Crazy, Country Destroying, Radical Left Democrats unless, and until, they Vote with Republicans to pass ‘THE SAVE AMERICA ACT,'” Trump started off by saying. He continued: It is far more important than anything else we are doing in the Senate, and that includes giving these same terrible people, the Dems (who are to blame for this mess!), a Five Billion Dollar cut in ICE funding, a deal which, even when disguised as something else, is unacceptable to me and the American people – UNLESS it includes their approval of Voter I.D., (with picture!), Citizenship to Vote, No Mail-In Voting (with exceptions), All Paper Ballots, No Men In Women’s Sports, and No Transgender MUTILIZATION of our precious children. Trump made a similar argument while speaking to NewsNation reporter Hannah Brandt about an hour before his post. “I don’t think any deal should be made on this until they approve SAVE America,” Trump told her. “Ok, so you have a scoop.” The president added in his post that it was important to let Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD)”clearly identify” which Republicans — which Trump put in quotes in his post — vote against the SAVE America Act. Trump has been prodding Thune to rally support for the legislation this month, saying he must be a “leader” and get it done. “They will never be elected again!” Trump posted about GOP lawmakers who vote against voter ID. Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) has been the only Republican to vote against the SAVE America Act so far. He added, “In other words,… [TheTopNews] Read More.10 hours ago
- Popular NHL Reporter and 3 Children Die in House Fire: ‘We Are Absolutely Hear...
Veteran NHL reporter Jessi Pierce and her three young children died in a house fire early on Saturday morning in Minnesota. NBC Nightly News reported on the tragedy on Sunday, as devastated neighbors and fans mourned the loss of the 37-year-old journalist — best known for covering the Minnesota Wild for more than a decade — and her kids. “Officials say neighbors called 911 early Saturday morning when they saw flames coming out of the roof,” anchor Hallie Jackson reported. Footage of flames coming from Pierce’s home and firefighters arriving at the scene played as Jackson shared details on the fire, which happened in White Bear Lake, a suburb about 20 miles away from Minneapolis. Jackson reported neighbors were “in shock,” before NBC played a clip of a middle-aged gentleman who was on the verge of tears while speaking to reporters. “They were good kids,” the neighbor said. “It’s sad.” Pierce shared a picture of her three children — 8-year-old Hudson, 6-year-old Cayden, and 4-year-old Avery — with her 19,000 X followers on Friday, just hours before the blaze. The tear-inducing pictures show the three kids enjoying big ice cream cups and cones. bag(s) secured pic.twitter.com/vUSY0x9p9r — Jessi Pierce (@jessi_pierce) March 20, 2026 Pierce covered the Wild for NHL.com, and also contributed sports content to SKOR North, a Minnesota sports-focused website.

(Tom Williams/CQ Roll Call via AP Images) President Donald Trump warned Iran it will face “total decimation” in the very near future on Sunday, one day after he gave the country’s theocratic regime 48 hours to “FULLY OPEN” the Strait of Hormuz or else he will start bombing power plants one by one. Trump shared his latest threat during a phone interview with Neria Kraus, a reporter for Channel 13 news in Israel. Kraus posted a few of the president’s remarks to X soon after. “You’re gonna find out soon. It’s gonna be very good. Total decimation of Iran,” Trump told her about his 48-hour timeline. “It’s gonna work out very good.” Trump added Iran has been “very bad for 47 years” — referring to the 1979 Islamic Revolution. “Now they’re getting their comeuppance.” I had a phone call interview with President Trump today about Iran. Asked about the strait of Hormuz and his ultimatum, @POTUS said: “You’ll find out what’s gonna happen”. Will they cave in to the ultimatum? “You’re gonna find out soon. It’s gonna be very good. Total… — Neria Kraus (@NeriaKraus) March 22, 2026 The president also took a swipe at NATO while talking to Kraus, saying its “not doing anything” to help the war effort. That comment came around the same time NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte praised Trump for Operation Epic Fury during an interview on Fox News; Rutte said the war in Iran is “necessary’ and commended Trump’s leadership. Trump on Saturday gave Iran two days to make the Strait of Hormuz safe for all ships. He posted, “If Iran doesn’t FULLY OPEN, WITHOUT THREAT, the Strait of Hormuz, within 48 HOURS from this exact point in time, the United States of America will hit and obliterate their various POWER PLANTS, STARTING WITH THE BIGGEST ONE FIRST!” The president made his ultimatum three weeks after joint U.S. and Israeli strikes killed Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and launched the war. There has been a huge drop in maritime traffic through the Strait of Hormuz since the war began on February 28, with the BBC reporting traffic has plunged 95% in March. The pathway connecting the Persian Gulf with the Gulf of Oman and the Arabian Sea typically has 138 ships passing through it each day, but that has dropped to about 100 ships since the war began.
