Trump delivered a speech at the White House, but you can't hear what he said
Standing on the White House lawn, US President Donald Trump showed off his new granite helicopter pad.
He used oversized gold scissors to cut a red, white and blue ribbon, and exchanged handshakes with the construction crew.
He had some words to mark the occasion on Monday, local time, but without a microphone in front of him, they did not reach many ears.
Usually, this sort of moment would be captured by the White House press pool.
But days after the president escalated his attacks on American media outlets, the pool reporters were not there.
"Maybe … this is one example of it backfiring just a little bit," a Newsmax presenter watching a silent feed remarked.
How the US media's fightback will hit Donald Trump — and the legal right it's relying on
SBS acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of Country and their connections and continuous care for the skies, lands and waterways throughout Australia.
Major United States media outlets from across the political divide have come together in rare solidarity to oppose US President Donald Trump's unprecedented ban on several organisations, including CNN, from the White House.
Trump last week announced he was barring CNN, Politico and MS NOW (formerly MSNBC) from the White House, accusing them of spreading "fake news".
The outlets have since filed a legal challenge, arguing the ban violated the First Amendment of the US constitution, which protects free speech and press freedom.

US TV networks suspend White House pool coverage over Trump media ban
White House promoted its own ‘Trump TV’ feed online after ABC, CBS, Fox News and NBC decline to participate
The major US television news outlets agreed to suspend their video coverage of Donald Trump after the administration banned journalists from several outlets from entering the White House grounds.
The collective decision came after the barred outlets – CNN, MS Now and Politico – sued the administration on Monday, saying the president’s actions were a violation of their first amendment rights.
The ban was an extraordinary escalation of Trump’s battle against news outlets. After a coalition of networks including ABC, CBS, Fox News and NBC – which along with CNN form a press “pool” that share the responsibilities of capturing and distributing footage of the president carried by news outlets worldwide – announced they would cease coverage in solidarity with the barred outlets, the White House promoted its own feed online, branding it “Trump TV”. The channel purported to show “top past moments, announcements, and the latest and greatest from the administration all in one place”.
