President Trump signed executive orders in the Oval Office on health care cost transparency and tariffs on copper. Additionally, President Trump answered questions on the weaponization of government, Russia-Ukraine war peace negotiations, congressional efforts to pass a budget, Canada as the 51st state, increased waterflow in California, and media access to the president. "We're going to be now calling the shots," said President Trump on media access, before calling an Associated Press reporter a "radical left lunatic." Additionally, he discussed suspending and reviewing security clearances for attorneys associated with a law firm that assisted former special counsel Jack Smith in investigating President Trump.
