The Trump White House said Friday that The Associated Press is banned from the Oval Office and Air Force One indefinitely.

The AP, one of the world's biggest news outlets, was singled out by the White House earlier this week over three words: "Gulf of Mexico."

In a statement on X, deputy chief of staff Taylor Budowich pointed to the Gulf dispute, saying the AP's decision "is not just divisive, but it also exposes the Associated Press' commitment to misinformation."

Shortly before Trump departed the White House for Mar-a-Lago on Friday, the administration confirmed that the AP would not be allowed on Air Force One for the trip, either.
