White House Press Credentials and the Best Convention Speeches: Jim Pfaff on The John Fredericks Show | Sep 22, 2026
On The John Fredericks Show, Jim Pfaff says he is not a fan of President Trump pulling the White House press credentials of CNN, MS NOW and Politico, but argues the First Amendment does not give anyone a right to be in the White House, that MSNBC was bad enough for NBC to chuck it, and that a real alternative media is being built. Then he and John Fredericks rank the best and worst convention speeches since Goldwater: RFK Jr. in Dallas, Reagan in 1976, Jeane Kirkpatrick in 1984, and Buchanan’s speech in the wrong year.
