 1:20 p.m. 
 
 President Donald Trump says the White House is "writing up rules and regulations" for reporters after a judge ordered the administration to restore credentials for CNN reporter Jim Acosta. 
 
 Trump told reporters Friday that "people have to behave." He added that if journalists "don't listen to the rules and regulations, we will end up back in court and we will win." 
 
 Asked what he meant by rules and regulations, Trump said: "Decorum. You can't take three questions and four questions. And just stand up and not sit down." 
 
 Trump said he wants "total freedom of the press," but added "you have to act with respect." 
 
 The White House said Friday that it would "temporarily reinstate" the credentials that were revoked after Acosta and Trump tangled during a press conference last week. 
 
 12:40 p.m. 
 
 CNN White House correspondent Jim Acosta says all he wants to do is go back to work covering "the guy in there," referring to President Donald Trump. 
 
 More than 50 members of the White House press corps greeted Acosta as he strode through the northwest gate of the presidential compound. 
 
 A federal judge on Friday ordered the administration to restore the credentials that were revoked after Acosta and Trump tangled during a press conference last week. 
 
 Acosta says journalists need to know that in the United States their First Amendment rights and freedom of the press "are sacred" and protected by the Constitution. 
 
 He says he's grateful for the judge's ruling, that it was a test and he thinks the media passed the test. 
 
 Acosta says: "This is just any other day at the White House for me and I would like to get back to work."

 It's a waiting game in the legal case about whether a federal judge will order the Trump administration to return the White House press credentials of CNN reporter Jim Acosta. 
 
 CNN has asked U.S. District Judge Timothy Kelly, who was appointed to the bench by President Donald Trump, for an order that would force the White House to immediately hand back credentials that give reporters access to the White House complex. 
 
 CNN wants Acosta's credentials returned while a lawsuit over their revocation goes forward. 
 
 Acosta has clashed repeatedly with Trump and press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders in briefings over the past two years. The White House pulled his credential last week following a combative press conference. 
 
 Trump has made his dislike of CNN clear since before he took office and continuing into his presidency. He's described the network as "fake news" both on Twitter and in public comments.
– President Trump on Friday insisted that "total freedom of the press" is important to him, but he thinks reporters need to follow rules of "decorum" at press conferences. In response to a judge's decision to restore the press credentials of CNN's Jim Acosta, Trump said the White House is writing up "rules and regulations" for journalists. Asked to clarify, he said: “Decorum. You can’t take three questions and four questions. And just stand up and not sit down.” See the video here. The White House revoked Acosta's credentials after he refused to hand over his microphone to an intern while peppering Trump with questions. "You have to act with respect," said Trump. If reporters “don’t listen to the rules and regulations, we will end up back in court and we will win," he added, per the AP. And failing that, the president suggested he would simply leave press conferences if he thought reporters were being disrespectful. (See controversial video of the Acosta incident.)
