(CN) – A federal judge has ruled that the Trump administration wrongly denied CNN Jim Acosta due process in revoking his White House press pass and must give it back.

Kelly was also highly critical of assertions by White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders that Acosta laid hands on the intern who tried to remove a microphone from his grasp, calling the story “likely untrue.”
