The White House is launching Trump TV, a YouTube channel that will broadcast speeches and "the best moments" featuring President Donald Trump around the clock, reports BFMTV.

"All the greatest hits, wins, and much more. Stream 24/7," the White House writes on X.

The launch follows the White House ban on three major US media outlets, a move ordered by the president last Friday.

CNN, MSNBC, and Politico were barred from the White House after the president claimed they pose "a threat to our national security and must be stopped."

The media outlets responded by filing a lawsuit against Trump, and other media organizations—including Fox News—have rallied behind the banned outlets by ceasing to cover the president via the shared press pool, effective immediately.
