President Donald Trump has infused his ongoing feud with the White House press with a new level of acrimony.
唐纳德·特朗普总统将他与白宫媒体之间持续不断的不和升级到了新的尖刻程度。
Journalists from three major media outlets - CNN, Politico and MS Now - were denied access and had their press credentials confiscated on Saturday morning as they attempted to enter the White House grounds for work.
周六上午，CNN、Politico 和 MS Now 三大媒体的记者在试图进入白宫办公场所时被拒绝进入，记者证也被没收。
As media watchdog organisations and the White House Correspondents Association cry foul, Trump appears set to press ahead with a sweeping effort to punish these outlets.
在媒体监管组织和白宫记者协会大声疾呼之际，特朗普似乎将继续采取全面措施来惩罚这些媒体。
In his Truth Social post announcing his decision on Friday, he said he was "banning" the organisations because "of their constant 'reporting' of fake news". In remarks later that day, he complained that "something is wrong with a country that can allow people to write purposely negative stories".
他在周五的《真相社会》帖子中宣布了他的决定，他说他正在“禁止”这些组织，因为“他们不断‘报道’假新闻”。 在当天晚些时候的讲话中，他抱怨说“一个允许人们故意写负面故事的国家是有问题的”。
"If they want to write them, that's fine," he continued. "I don't have to let them into the people's house", he said, referring to the White House.
“如果他们想写，那很好，”他继续说道。 “我不必让他们进入人民的房子”，他指的是白宫。
Journalists denied White House access after Trump banned some media outlets The president's frustration at the media, however, came after a week of setbacks in which major institutions handed him a series of losses across his agenda.
特朗普禁止一些媒体后，记者被拒绝进入白宫 然而，在经历了一周的挫折之后，总统对媒体感到沮丧，主要机构在他的议程上给他带来了一系列损失。
First, the Supreme Court blocked his plan to restrict mail-in voting ahead of the midterms.
首先，最高法院阻止了他在中期选举前限制邮寄投票的计划。
This prompted Trump to lash out at the court's justices including those he had appointed. "These are not the people I interviewed to serve on the United States Supreme Court," he said. The Federal Reserve, the US central bank, then raised interest rates after Trump had spent months arguing they should be cut.
这促使特朗普猛烈抨击法院法官，包括他任命的法官。 “这些人不是我采访过的在美国最高法院任职的人，”他说。 在特朗普花了数月时间争论应该降息后，美国中央银行美联储随后提高了利率。
This was followed by a judge ordering his administration to give 30 days' notice before making any changes to the Kennedy Center arts venue in Washington DC after the president warned it could be "ripped down". These headlines, combined with approval ratings that recently sunk to record lows for his second term, suggest Trump is facing challenging political headwinds.
随后，在总统警告华盛顿特区肯尼迪中心艺术场馆可能被“拆除”之后，一名法官命令他的政府在对华盛顿特区肯尼迪中心艺术场馆进行任何改动之前提前 30 天通知。 这些头条新闻，加上最近在第二个任期内跌至历史新低的支持率，表明特朗普正面临着充满挑战的政治阻力。
His latest attack on the press, however, raises clear legal questions.
然而，他对媒体的最新攻击引发了明显的法律问题。
The First Amendment to the US Constitution forbids Congress from "abridging" the freedom of the press.
美国宪法第一修正案禁止国会“剥夺”新闻自由。
It is language that courts have long interpreted as preventing the government from discriminating against the media based on the content of their coverage. All three targeted news outlets have promised to file lawsuits challenging Trump's decision.
法院长期以来将这种语言解释为防止政府根据媒体的报道内容对其进行歧视。 所有三个目标新闻媒体都承诺提起诉讼，质疑特朗普的决定。
Although the breadth of this move is unprecedented, it is far from the first time the Trump administration has attempted to limit or deny access to the White House to members of mainstream media outlets.
尽管此举的广度是前所未有的，但这并不是特朗普政府第一次试图限制或拒绝主流媒体成员进入白宫。
In his first term, the administration revoked CNN correspondent Jim Acosta's press credentials, setting off a legal battle that was ultimately resolved in the journalist's favour.
在他的第一个任期内，政府吊销了 CNN 记者吉姆·阿科斯塔的记者资格，引发了一场法律诉讼，最终以对记者有利的方式解决。
It also temporarily suspended the pass of a reporter who had a heated argument with White House adviser Sebastian Gorka – a move that also was subsequently blocked by the courts. Last year, the White House banned reporters for the Associated Press from participating in the president's press pool - which allows media outlets access to smaller in-town and travelling presidential appearances - because the newswire service would not follow Trump's move to rename the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America.
它还暂时暂停了一名与白宫顾问塞巴斯蒂安戈尔卡发生激烈争执的记者的通行证，此举随后也被法院阻止。 去年，白宫禁止美联社记者参加总统新闻发布会——该新闻发布会允许媒体参与规模较小的城内和旅行的总统露面——因为新闻专线服务不会跟随特朗普将墨西哥湾重新命名为美洲湾的举动。
That dispute also led to a protracted - and yet to be fully resolved - legal battle, prompting the White House to change press pool rules to drop the guaranteed spot for all wire services.
这场纠纷还导致了一场旷日持久且尚未完全解决的法律斗争，促使白宫改变记者池规则，取消所有通讯服务的保证席位。
Watch: Trump says ban on some news outlets from White House is "because they're fake news" The White House bans, however, represent a dramatic escalation.
观看：特朗普表示，白宫禁止某些新闻媒体“因为它们是假新闻” 然而，白宫的禁令代表着急剧升级。
The restrictions include access to the entirety of the White House grounds, not just the press pool.
这些限制包括进入整个白宫场地，而不仅仅是记者池。
And they target entire news organisations, not just a single disfavoured correspondent.
他们的目标是整个新闻机构，而不仅仅是某个不受青睐的记者。
While Trump has been clear about the motives behind his decision, he has shed little light on why he has acted now. He has regularly criticised his press coverage since he first entered national politics more than a decade ago, but he said on Friday there was no specific incident that prompted his announcement.
虽然特朗普很清楚他的决定背后的动机，但他并没有透露他现在采取行动的原因。 自从十多年前首次进入国家政治以来，他经常批评他的新闻报道，但他周五表示，没有具体事件促使他发表这一声明。
At the moment, however, the president is embattled. Even beyond the week of clear setbacks, he is in the midst of an unpopular and difficult-to-resolve war of choice in Iran, which has led to a surge in energy and other consumer prices, deflating his standing with the American public.
然而，目前总统正陷入困境。 即使在经历了明显挫折的一周之后，他仍处于伊朗的一场不受欢迎且难以解决的选择战争之中，这场战争导致能源和其他消费品价格飙升，削弱了他在美国公众中的地位。
Polls also suggest his party faces an uphill battle to retain control of the House of Representatives and perhaps the Senate in November's crucial midterm congressional elections.
民意调查还显示，他的政党面临着一场艰苦的战斗，以在 11 月关键的国会中期选举中保住众议院的控制权，或许还有参议院的控制权。
His attempts to improve the public's mood by touting his accomplishments in campaign events and at his Republican Party's convention earlier this month in Texas have, at least so far, proven ineffective.
他试图通过在竞选活动和本月早些时候在德克萨斯州举行的共和党全国代表大会上宣扬自己的成就来改善公众情绪，但至少到目前为止，事实证明是无效的。
There may be more behind the Trump's decision to lash out at the media this weekend.
特朗普本周末猛烈抨击媒体的决定背后可能还有更多原因。
But it could also simply be an indication of presidential frustration in the face of events and circumstances, some of his own making, that are turning against him.
但这也可能只是表明总统在面对一些他自己造成的对他不利的事件和情况时感到沮丧。
