Andrew Egger discusses in an episode of "Tim Miller on the Monday pod" how President Trump is struggling to maintain control over his decisions regarding Iran, indicating a sense of desperation and weakness. The podcast also mentions Trump’s attempt to exclude certain media outlets from White House press briefings as another sign of his floundering leadership, with other networks resisting this move in solidarity.

Story summary
On September 25, US TV networks resumed coverage of President Donald Trump’s events at the White House after a judge ordered the administration to lift its ban on CNN, MS NOW, and Politico. The ban was imposed last week due to what Trump described as unfavorable press coverage. Despite the reinstatement, tensions remain high; the networks ceased filming White House events in solidarity with banned outlets earlier in the week, resulting in no pool footage during Chinese President Xi Jinping's visit on September 24-25. The court battle continues, and CNN was barred from traveling with Trump to Tennessee for a weekend trip, though reasons were not officially provided by the administration.
