FREEDOM OF THE PRESS. Trump calls it “frankly disgusting.” ‘When pressed in the afternoon about whether there should be limits on the media, Trump said “no,” but he did add that reporters should write “more honestly.” Citing no evidence, Trump said: “When they make up stories like that, it’s just made up … They make up sources.”‘

25TH AMENDMENT. Steve Bannon told Trump it was biggest threat to his presidency: ‘When Bannon mentioned the 25th Amendment, Trump said, “What’s that?” According to a source, Bannon has told people he thinks Trump has only a 30 percent chance of making it the full term.’

NFL TrumpNFL. Roger Goodell refutes Trump tweet claiming he’s “finally demanding players stand for National Anthem. “Commentary this morning about the Commissioner’s position on the Anthem is not accurate. As we said yesterday, there will be a discussion of these issues at the owners meeting next week. The NFL is doing the hard work of trying to move from protest to progress, working to bring people together.”

YOU LIE. Rose McGowan attacks Ben Affleck over Harvey Weinstein: ‘Ms. McGowan, in a tweet and a subsequent email exchange with The New York Times on Tuesday night, said she had told Mr. Affleck that Mr. Weinstein had behaved inappropriately with her. Mr. Affleck, who rose to stardom with help from Mr. Weinstein on the 1997 film “Good Will Hunting,” had said earlier Tuesday that he was “angry” over Mr. Weinstein’s alleged abuse of women, but he gave no indication of whether he knew about it. “I find myself asking what I can do to make sure this doesn’t happen to others,” Mr. Affleck said in a statement.’

I ACTED INAPPROPRIATELY. Ben Affleck apologizes for grabbing former TRL host Hilarie Burton’s breast.
