What does this White House read to understand the world?
Everything is personal to Trump. Doesn't he have a feud with Jeff Bezos (click here)? He is trying to put him out of business from inside the Executive Branch of the USA. There is plenty there to file a lawsuit about. Begin with the First Amendment and a free and open press.
The only real reason any journalist can be disqualified is if they pose a threat to human life. I doubt that exists at The Washington Post. I am quite confident every journalist now being ostracized can pass a background check with ease.
THERE ARE ESTABLISHED STANDARDS. Those standards are based in fact and sound decision making.
The Trump White House is known to be the base of the Trump Campaign supervised by Jared Kushner. That is not supposed to be happening inside the GOVERNMENT OFFICES of the President of the United States of America.

After almost eliminating press conferences, (click here) the Trump administration’s campaign against journalists covering the White House has reached a new peak. On Wednesday, the administration today revoked the hard passes of almost the entire White House press corps, the Washington Post reports.
After telling all six Post reporters that their hard passes were revoked, the administration then said they’d take requests for “exceptions,” veteran White House journalist Dana Milbank writes. The exceptions were granted for all of the other Post journalists besides Milbank.
From the "Post:"
The White House press office granted exceptions to the other six, but not to me. I strongly suspect it’s because I’m a Trump critic. The move is perfectly in line with Trump’s banning of certain news organizations, including The Post, from his campaign events and his threats to revoke White House credentials of journalists he doesn’t like.
White House officials provided me no comment for the record...
