The leaders agreed Ukraine and America will continue working together to bring about a real end to the war and that lasting peace under President Trump's leadership can be achieved. I would just like to emphasize we have never been this close to peace and it's only because of President Trump that we are here.
I think a couple of years ago, as you all reported on the war, it was incomprehensible to have a partial ceasefire in this conflict. And today that is true because of the leadership of this president.
I can confirm that the president is committed to rebuilding Gaza and to temporarily relocating those who are there, because as I've showed you repeatedly, it is a demolition site. There is no running water. There is no electricity. The president wants these individuals to live in peace.
He is committed to doing that with this very bold new plan and we will continue to keep you apprised of updates as we receive them.
Tren de Aragua is now a designated foreign terrorist organization. And as I said, there were nearly 200 Tren de Aragua members who were sent to El Salvador this weekend. Countless lives will be saved because of this action.
And if you talk to the families, the Angel families, as I mentioned, Blake and Riley and Jocelyn Nongre, they understand the grave cost of life at the hands of these illegal terrorists. And the president is proud to deliver on that promise for them.
To your second question about the CBP Home app, I would have to check in with the Department of Homeland Security, but it's a great question, and we're very proud to repurpose this app, which the Biden administration abused to facilitate the mass illegal entry of illegal immigrants into our country. It was like a fast pass at Disneyland. That's not happening under this administration.
We are encouraging illegal immigrants to actively self-deport to maybe save themselves from being in one of these fun videos.
Absolutely not. And my advice to that unnamed low level French politician would be to remind them that it's only because of the United States of America that the French are not speaking German right now. So they should be very grateful to our great country.
So the Department of Education will be much smaller than it is today. As you know, the president's executive order directed Linda McMahon to greatly minimize the agency. So when it comes to student loans and Pell Grants, those will still be run out of the Department of Education.
But we don't need to be spending more than $3 trillion over the course of a few decades on a department that's clearly failing in its initial intention to educate our students.
Caroline on immigration. Of the 3,500...
arrests ice has made so far since president trump came back into office can you just tell us the numbers how many have a criminal record versus those who are just in the country illegally all of them because they illegally broke our nation's laws and therefore they are criminals as far as this administration goes mic drop moment like that is the perfect time for that meme where like the sunglasses go on and it's like the thug life song this response is the perfect moment for that
Let's roll through the biggest and most historic wins in this week's MAGA Minute. On the border, President Trump signed the Lakin-Riley Act into law. We've seen nearly 95% drop in the number of U.S. Border Patrol encounters on our southern border.
And our efforts have been so successful, they've caused the shuttering of migrant shelters and would-be illegal immigrants to return home before even attempting to enter our country.
Unsere Agenten auf den Frontlinien nehmen diese Leute mit der höchsten Ernährung. Und es gibt eine Litanie von Kriterien, die sie benutzen, um sicherzustellen, dass diese Individuen als foren Terroristen qualifizieren. Und um sicherzustellen, dass sie für Deportation qualifizieren.
Und der Präsident hat es dem amerikanischen Publikum unglaublich klar gemacht, dass es eine Mass-Deportation-Kampagne geben wird. Nicht nur von Außen-Terroristen, sondern auch von illegalen kriminellen Aliens, die auf die amerikanischen Gemeinschaften schmerzen. Und Scham auf dich und Scham auf die Mainstream-Media, die versuchen, für diese Individuen zu schützen.
Ich versuche nicht, für jemanden zu schützen.
Das ist eine fischere Gang, die die Leben der amerikanischen Frauen genommen hat. Und du hast dir selbst gesagt, dass es acht Kriterien gibt auf diesem Dokument. And you are questioning the credibility of these agents who are putting their life on the line to protect your life and the life of everybody in this group and everybody across the country.
Through USAID over the past several years, these are some of the insane priorities that that organization has been spending money on. $1.5 million to advance DEI in Serbia's workplaces. $70,000 for a production of a DEI musical in Ireland. Forty seven thousand for a transgender opera in Colombia. Thirty two thousand for a transgender comic book in Peru.
I don't know about you, but as an American taxpayer, I don't want my dollars going towards this crap. And I know the American people don't either. And that's exactly what Elon Musk has been tasked by President Trump to do, to get the fraud, waste and abuse out of our federal government.
Hi, Charlie. Yeah, I was curious about your thoughts on IVF. I know it's something that the Trump administration has, you know, made a priority. And I think that's a great thing. If you kind of do research as a Christian on that, it's difficult to find resources that are pro-life and also support IVF.
But I think it's a really good option for people who struggle with infertility and are pro-family. Just wanted to see what your thoughts were on that topic.
They led a multi-state sex trafficking operation involving smuggling women into the United States, holding them in stash houses in Louisiana, Florida, New Jersey, Texas, and Virginia, and forcing them into prostitution. And they kidnapped and murdered a 33-year-old woman in Texas. They sexually and physically assaulted a woman and her daughter in Wisconsin.
They conducted a mass shooting in Illinois.
I definitely agree. And I witnessed this relationship firsthand every single day in the Oval Office and at the White House. And President Trump has tasked Elon Musk with administering his America First agenda, just like the rest of us who serve at the pleasure of the president, but most importantly, serve the American people.
More than 77 million Americans reelected President Trump to promote democracy. monumental, fundamental change to shake up the Washington swamp. And there's nobody better than Elon Musk to do that. He is a once in a generation business leader. He sent rocket ships to space. He's far smarter than many of the people who are grunting and moaning on Capitol Hill about these efforts are.
And he's the perfect person to help President Trump with this effort. The mainstream media wants to drive a wedge between their relationship, but they are failing. And our entire team is unified behind President Trump. to deliver on the promises he made to the American people on the campaign trail.
He is now delivering on it. And I've been fighting fake news reporters all day long here in the Washington, D.C. swamp who are trying to fearmonger the American people into believing that this administration is going after their hard earned tax dollars and their hard earned Social Security checks. So I want to set the record straight.
on your show tonight, Sean, and I'm very grateful for the opportunity to do so. President Trump has directed Elon Musk and the Doge team to identify fraud at the Social Security Administration. They haven't dug into the books yet, but they suspect that there are tens of millions of deceased people who are receiving fraudulent Social Security payments.
Again, I've been asked and answered this question. Elon Musk is overseeing Doge. There are career, there are, no, Elon Musk is a special government employee, which I've also been asked and have answered that question as well. There are career officials at Doge. There are political appointees at Doge. I'm not going to reveal the name of that individual from this podium.
I'm happy to follow up and provide that to you. But we've been incredibly transparent about the way that Doge is working.
Did you announce your position to the rest of Doge? We we everybody knew and we said who she was to all of you because you are hounds in the media who are so obsessed with this for some reason. So in the effort of transparency, we told you who that person is. There are so many bigger things in the world than who the Doge administrator is.
But for some reason, everybody in the press corps is so obsessed with this that you were incessantly asking. So we thought, OK, we will be transparent. So now you know who it is. Any further questions?
So Amy Gleason has been the DOJ administrator for quite some time, I believe several weeks, maybe a month. I'm not actually sure of the specific timeline. She's a career official. She's doing her job as the administrator of this organization. I know everybody's very interested in her name and who she is and what she does. There's a lot of people who work for the federal government.
They're just trying to do their jobs. And, you know, that's what she's doing.
You have to ask them. They're clearly unaware. I don't know.
Everybody knew, and we said who she was to all of you because you are hounds in the media who are so obsessed with this for some reason.
at doge sure i'm happy to clarify elon musk is a special government employee here at the white house serving at the direction of the president of the united states donald trump elon musk has been tasked with overseeing doge on behalf of the president and doge employees doge folks have been onboarding at respective agencies across our federal bureaucracy as political appointees
Just like any other political appointee gets on board with a new administration with the changing of hands. And those individuals are helping the secretaries at all of our agencies that have been nominated and confirmed by President Trump in the United States Senate to cut waste, fraud and abuse at these respective agencies.
So that's the way Doge has been set up and that's the way it will continue to operate.
Okay. He is now delivering on it. And I've been fighting fake news reporters all day long here in the Washington DC swamp who are trying to fearmonger the American people into believing that this administration is going after their hard earned tax dollars and their hard earned social security checks
So I want to set the record straight on your show tonight, Sean, and I'm very grateful for the opportunity to do so. President Trump has directed Elon Musk and the Doge team to identify fraud at the Social Security Administration. They haven't dug into the books yet, but they suspect that there are tens of millions of deceased people who are receiving fraudulent Social Security payments.
All right.
Probably both. I think he's watching for the United States to win tonight. I know he talked to the USA hockey team this morning. He talked to the players after their morning practice around 10 o'clock. And I also spoke to some folks from that team after they were jubilant over President Trump's comments to the team. I believe they're going to put out a video of that call.
So he looks forward to watching the game tonight and we look forward to the United States beating our soon-to-be 51st state, Canada.
The definition of insanity is attempting to do the same thing over and over and over again. And as the president and prime minister pointed out last night,
The president is willing to think outside the box.
As you all know, for decades, a group of DC-based journalists, the White House Correspondents Association, has long dictated which journalists get to ask questions of the President of the United States in these most intimate spaces. Not anymore.
I am proud to announce that we are going to give the power back to the people who read your papers, who watch your television shows, and who listen to your radio stations. Moving forward, the White House press pool will be determined by the White House press team.
Legacy outlets who have participated in the press pool for decades will still be allowed to join, fear not, but we will also be offering the privilege to well-deserving outlets who have never been allowed to share in this awesome responsibility.
I'm not sure if anybody in this room has listened to Mr. Bongino when he talks about the past corruption at the FBI, when he talks about his experience serving for the United States Secret Service. This is a man who loves his country and who has honorably served our country in ways that many people have not.
He understands the depth of the corruption at these institutions, which the American people re-elected President Trump to shake up. And I think it's quite despicable to see many networks in this room who have had chyrons on their television screens labeling Mr. Bongino as a far-right podcaster. He is not. He is a former law enforcement agent.
He is a former Secret Service agent who put his life on the line to protect this country. And that is why the President of the United States has entrusted him for this important role. He's also an outsider to this Washington swamp. And we often see that when outsiders are appointed, to such coveted positions.
A lot of people in this city get very, very nervous, and they should be, because Dan Bongino and Kash Patel and Attorney General Bondi are focused on rooting out the corruption at these agencies and ending the weaponization of government once and for all.
He's actually not implementing tax hikes. Tariffs are a tax hike on foreign countries that, again, have been ripping us off. Tariffs are a tax cut for the American people. And the President is a staunch advocate of tax cuts. As you know, he campaigned on no taxes on tips, no taxes on overtime, no taxes on Social Security benefits.
He is committed to all three of those things, and he expects Congress to pass them later this year. The Press I'm sorry, have you ever paid a tariff?
And ultimately, when we have fair and balanced trade, which the American people have not seen in decades, as I said at the beginning, revenues will stay here, wages will go up, and our country will be made wealthy again. And I think it's insulting that you're trying to test my knowledge of economics and the decisions that this president has made.
I now regret giving a question to the Associated Press.
I would reject the premise of your question that this forces the United States to be entangled in conflicts abroad. The president has not committed to putting boots on the ground in Gaza. He has also said that the United States is not going to pay for the rebuilding of Gaza. His administration is going to work with our partners in the region to reconstruct this region.
And let me just take a step back here because this is an out of the box idea. That's who President Trump is. That's why the American people elected him. And his goal is lasting peace in the Middle East for all people in the region. And as I said in my opening remarks, we've had the same people pushing the same solutions to this problem for decades.
And it's been made very clear to the President that the United States needs to be involved in this rebuilding effort to ensure stability in the region for all people. But that does not mean boots on the ground in Gaza. It does not mean American taxpayers will be funding this effort. It means Donald Trump, who is the best dealmaker on the planet,
is going to strike a deal with our partners in the region.
