White House launches 24/7 'Trump TV' livestream on YouTube
The White House began streaming a continuous YouTube channel replaying President Trump's speeches, bill signings, and other public appearances, dubbed 'Trump TV' by officials. Digital strategy chief Kaelan Dorr described it as airing Trump's 'greatest hits, unfiltered,' claiming media outlets misreported his administration's achievements. The launch came days after CNN, MS Now, and Politico were barred from White House press access.

Critics including California Gov. Gavin Newsom have labeled the channel 'state-run TV,' raising concerns about government-produced media replacing independent press coverage. The timing—coinciding with the press ban and a joint lawsuit from the excluded outlets—suggests an effort to control the administration's public narrative while sidelining critical journalism, prompting a rare unified condemnation from major broadcasters.
