MS NOW announces a lawsuit –along with CNN and POLITICO– over the Trump administration banning the three news outlets from the White House. The outlets released a joint statement saying quote: “This morning, we notified the government that we are filing a lawsuit today to protect our First Amendment rights and defend the principle that the government does not decide what the press reports or publishes. Without notice or process, the White House revoked our journalists’ credentials because it objected to our reporting. Left unchallenged, this threatens press freedom and the public’s right to independent journalism free from government interference." MS NOW legal analyst Joyce Vance joins Morning Joe to discuss the developments and explains why she says Trump’s ban is "Incredibly undemocratic" and why she says the Trump administration will lose in court.
