When and how did Trump and the GOP try to shut down CNN?

I was just informed by a very reputable source that Trump and the GOP tried to shut down CNN.  You can see this information in one of the answers at 

https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20200...

But, didn't know about this!!  I don't really have any details.  Can anyone give me specifics?  Preferably with some documentation?  What specific acts or legislation did the GOP propose or pass?  Did Trump declare martial law or send in troops to seize CNN's facilities?  Did he order their reporters assassinated by CIA agents?  It's terrible that Trump and the GOP tried to shut down CNN.  Can anyone give me the proof I need to show other Conservatives?

Update:

Is no one going to tell me the specifics here?!?!?!

    He cannot and will not shut them down.   That said, he isn't going to roll over for them, either.
