CNN’s most obnoxious reporter failed to bring his media badge with him as he tried to enter the White House yesterday, and was thus denied entry by a new Secret Service agent who didn’t recognize him.
Here’s part of the exchange:
VIDEO: CNN's Jim Acosta having a meltdown at Secret Service for not recognizing him despite the fact that he's been there for 5 years. We captured part of it on video. pic.twitter.com/DNq1UkkpfO

According to Daily Wire, here’s what was said in the video:
“When you’re walking around,” the agent says, “we need you to wear it so we know who you are.”
Acosta gets huffy: “I’ve been here five years and nobody has said that to me.”
The agent jams him hard: “I haven’t been here five years, I didn’t recognize you.”
I love it.
If he were’t such a pompous butthole, his misery might not be so much fun. But clearly he thinks he doesn’t need to wear his badge and boom, he gets put in his place.
