"No, I haven't," the president says, asked whether he had disciplined or fired the staff member that posted the racist clip of the Obamas at the end of a video on his Truth Social.
He says he wasn't aware that Secretary Lutnick had visited Epstein's island: "No, I wasn't aware of it. No, I didn't. I actually haven't spoken about that. I wasn't but from what I hear, he was there with his wife and children. I guess in some cases, some people were, I wasn't. I was never there. Some people said, they say that I was never there."
And that's a wrap, as of 2:10 p.m.

"Don't worry about it," the president says, asked about whether he's concerned these cuts are coming at the expense of public health and the environment.
He touted economic growth under his leadership, using some common refrains.
On Iran and his meeting with Netanyahu: "We have to make a deal or it's going to be very traumatic."
"I'll talk to them as long as I like," he said of his communications of Iran.
"They should have made a deal the first time they got Midnight Hammer and said, and this will be very dramatic for Iran. If they don't make a deal, then it'll be a different story. But we had a very good meeting yesterday with Bibi Netanyahu, and he understands, but it's ultimately up to me, if the deal isn't a very fair deal and a very good deal with Iran, then it's going to be, I think, a very difficult time," he continued.
