A new conflict is emerging in the White House, and this time it's between conflicting news outlets being allowed into the briefings.

Seats for quote-unquote new media have now been opened up, and many of these happen to be conservative-leaning outlets.

This is creating some tensions with the media that used to hold those seats, which generally tend to be left-leaning outlets.

Also, Americans are waiting on to classify documents being provided to the public.

The big one is whether or not we can get all the files on the late child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.
