of interior uh directing the US geologic survey who is responsible for the database which is the geographic names informational system uh and so just prior to this signing uh if you will the button was pushed it became official uh with this proclamation to call today Gulf of America day uh but now it's going out as we're sitting here right now now uh our team is calling all the the map providers so Google Maps Apple Maps all the map people uh that change will take effect uh this afternoon to Gulf of America so again uh fantastic
uh thank you president Trump for setting this all in motion with your executive order it's an exciting uh exciting fun day and great to do this as we're flying over the Gulf of America we thought it would be very appropriate we thought it would be appropriate Katherine thank you very much for being here so happy a very important part of his life and who knows what would have happened to him without you it might not have been good here you go okay have you talked to Mexico about this today actually interesting I've never spoken to
him about it it was our call and I have not spoken to him about I've spoken to him about many other things but I haven't really talked to them about this they have never brought it up I'm a little surprised at that but they've never brought it up sir can you tell us about your conversation with Vladimir Putin I don't want to do that now no we're trying to end that war it's a war that would have never happened if I were president would have never happened but uh we're making progress but I can't tell
you you suffered a couple Court losses Mr President and JD Vance said judges aren't allowed to control the executive power what's your take on that well we're going to see what happens we have a long way to go and uh we're talking about fraud waste abuse and when a president can't look for fraud and waste and abuse we don't have a country anymore so we're very disappointed with the judges that would make such a ruling but we have a long way to go we have to look we have to find all of the fraud that's
going on we have tremendous fraud tremendous waste and tremendous abuse and and theft by the way and the day you're not allowed to look for theft and fraud Etc uh then we don't have much of a country so no judge should be uh no judge should frankly be allowed to make that kind of a decision it's a disgrace Mr President Gul of Gul of America Canada Greenland Gaza all these are very muscular foreign policy how does this align with America first because it makes us bigger stronger and better and more protective we need Greenland because
of uh National Security International Security World security World fees and we'll have to do that Canada we'll see what happens with Canada but the people of Canada would be paying less than half of the tax if you look at the tax they're going to be paying less than half the tax you know they don't pay very much for military and the reason they don't pay much is they assume that we're going to protect them that's not an assumption they can make because why are we protecting another country now I love the people of Canada we
have a great relationship but if they became our 51st state be the greatest thing they could ever do it be unbelievable it would be a cherished State and think of how beautiful that country would be without that artificial Line running right through it somebody drew it many years ago with a ruler just a line you look at how beautiful that is wow it it would be very exciting but if you look at Canada and would be cherished as a 51st day uh they don't pay their share of military in NATO they pay very little for
military they're not protected at all and the reason is they think we're going to protect them uh the other thing is we subsidize them to the T of about $200 billion a year if we stop doing that if we stop allowing them to make cars through tariffs and other things cars trucks Etc what they make uh they're not viable as a country so would you would you would you agree that it's a a more aggressive foreign policy than your first term and why is that it's more aggressive uh it's better uh why because I think
I've had a lot of experience and in my first term I was fighting everybody because that were very aggressive toward me uh I always said survival and taking care of the country not necessarily in that order but I had to take care of the country but I had a bunch of lunatics like Pelosi and all of these people they fought me fought me fought me and we won and uh you know I had a lot of other things that were going on there this time it's much more they've lost their confidence I think they've lost
the respect of the American people with you know men participating in women's sports with open borders with transgender for everybody for all the things that they're doing is so so bad when you allow people to empty their jails into your country with prisoners Killers uh their mental institutions and insane asylums into our country this is what they're doing when you allow gang members from Venezuela but many other countries coming into our country we're getting them all out now uh they've lost their credibility but they've also lost confidence so uh I have more time to do
what I want to do so we're making our country larger we're making our country stronger and in the case of Canada if this should happen I don't know how they can do it without us because without the US Canada really doesn't have a country they do almost all of their business with us and if we say we want our cars to be made in Detroit like with a stroke of a pen I can do that and other things in addition to that would not allow Canada to be a viable country Mr you said you said
you didn't honor First Responders today but you pardon hundreds of people who assaulted First Responders why did you do that who I I you are going to meet with First Responders today but you pardon people who assaulted First Responders pardon people that were assaulted themselves they were assaulted by our government I ped I hard j6 people who were assaulted by our government that's who assaulted and they were treated unfairly there's never been a group of people in this country outside of maybe one instance that I can think of but I won't get into it that
were treated more horribly than the people of j6 so uh no I didn't assault they didn't assault they were assaulted and what I did was a great thing for Humanity they were treated very very unfairly there's never been an incid policy two fore policy questions on Putin again you realize if you don't clarify that everyone's going to assume you're talking to President Putin regularly are you it makes sense well I don't want to talk about it and if we are talking I don't want to tell you about the conversations too early but I do believe
we're making progress we want to stop the Ukraine Russia war and I want to stop it just because I hate to see all these young people being killed the soldiers are being killed by the hundreds of thousands so you're starting to put together a plan for like a peace formula or for some sort of resolution we're talking to both sides and Japan are you okay with having a foreign country having a controlling interest in a US Steel company well that let's let's look at this when I came here they were going to buy it and
Biden was going to approve it all of a sudden Biden didn't because he heard I wasn't going to I don't want us steel being owned by a foreign country uh they can have not a they're not they don't have a controlling they have an investment all they're going to have is an investment I don't mind I don't mind an investment in a company but especially us steel us steel for 15 years was the greatest company in the world the greatest number one company in the world and I'm not going to let another country buy we
had a great meeting on that but they are allowed to invest in it and that's different Mr President on tariffs sir you've talked about reciprocal tariffs coming in this week can you tell us a little bit more about that and are you announcing a plan for it this week or will I'll to I'll be announcing probably Tuesday or Wednesday at a news conference reciprocal tariffs and very simply it's if they charge us we charge them that's all when is it going to it ta Ser almost immediately but I'll be announcing the details of it highly
detailed and it'll be great for everybody including the other countries but if they are charging us 130% and we're charging them nothing it's not going to say that on every country every country will be reciprocal this one every president can you confirm it won't affect everybody because there's somewhere we have similar tariffs but the ones that are taking advantage of the United States we're going to have a it's reciprocity it's reciprocal we're going to have a reciprocal but we'll have a news conference Tuesday or Wednesday just on the steel question just so I understand you
corre be announcing steel tariffs on Monday tomorrow uh Monday yeah tomorrow what countries will those go on everybody steel including Canada and Mexico any steel coming into the United States is going to have a 25% tarff what about aluminum sir aluminum too 10% no 25% 25 for 25 for both both and on steel sear are you ruling out then nipon and steel having a 51% stake or higher they won't have a majority stake nobody can have a majority stake for us they can for other companies but not for us steel I think you agree with
that us steel was one of our great companies and through a lot of stupidity and bad government and also bad management of the company it lost that luster but it's going to gain it back and tariffs are going to help tariffs are going to make it very successful again and I think it has good management now to yeah can I may may ask one please um can you tell me can you confirm that she'll be meeting with MBS and uh CC of egyp soon will that be at the White House or you well I'll be
meeting with all of them numerous times by the way but I'll be meeting with all of them and yeah I think that it's a big mistake to allow people the Palestinians or the people living in Gaza to go back yet another time and we don't want Hamas going back and think of it as a big real estate site and the United States is going to own it and will slowly very slowly we're going Rush development with going to bring stability to the Middle East to a totally War torn part of the Middle East a part
of the Middle East that has caused tremendous problem tremendous problem the Gaza Strip and we'll Lo it it's totally demolished right now it's a demolition site uh it'll be reclaimed it'll be uh leveled out fixed up there won't be anybody there Hamas won't be there we'll be building through other of the very rich countries in the Middle East they'll be building some beautiful sites for the people for the Palestinians to live in uh they'll be living in Harmony and peace probably for the first time in hundreds of years and just to clarify I know you
don't want to tell us about your conversation with President Bo but can you clarify whether you had that since you've been since you've been in office or whether it happened before you became president I've had it let's just say I've had it and I and I expect to have many more conversations we have to get that ended it's going to end and we have to get it ended and we have to get it ended so should have never happened would have never happened if I was pres a couple years ago your vice president said that
suggested that if the Supreme Court rules in a way you don't like just let them enforce it do you agree with that say the last part vice president said suggested that if the Supreme Court rules in a way that you don't like they can just enforce it by themselves do you agree with that uh I don't know even what you're talking about neither do you who are you with up post sir who up post oh no wonder I thought they I thought they died are they still around I haven't read them in years I thought
they died all right go ahead who else on security clearances you've been yanking a lot of them why does it make the country safer to take away the AG security clearance and is that a form of Retribution there's somebody no it's if some if there are people that we don't respect if there are people that we thought that were breaking the L came very close to it in previous years we do it and we've done it with some people we've done it with Biden himself B himself uh we think our country is not as safe
if you gave him clearance we don't think he knows what he's doing and what he's done to this country is a disgrace and what he's done in terms of allowing criminals murderers drug lords into our country people from mental institutions into our country he should be ashamed of himself valid Reon on deportations there's been some reporting that you've been upset that there haven't been more deportations can you clarify that I think they're doing an incredible job it's very tough deportations finding murderers is not easy some of them are actually very smart they shouldn't be in
our country there wouldn't have been we had beautiful uh you know we just set records for closure we have the the strongest border we've had many years since my term but uh even maybe even for many many years decades before that no uh they uh they're doing an amazing job I think Tom homman is doing an amazing job chrisy nman is doing an amazing job but it's not easy finding murderers who know they're being looked for but we're we're sending out thousands of people we're getting rid of thousands of criminals from our country so how
do you expect to meet him in person anytime Putin do you anticipate meeting with him in imagine I would be meeting with yes at the right time I think at the right time at the appropriate time back on Gaza the White House Press Secretary told us last week that your commitment to rebuilding you're you're committed to rebuilding Gaza Steve whitco said that process would take 10 to 15 years does your commitment to rebuilding Gaza extend beyond your time in office I'm committed to buying and owning Gaza as far far as us rebuilding it we may
give it to other states in the Middle East to build sections of it uh other people may do it through our offices but we're uh committed to owning it taking it and making sure that Hamas doesn't move back there's nothing to move back into the place is a demolition site uh it'll be uh the remainder will be demolished everything's demolished I mean you can't live in those buildings right now they're very unstable but we'll uh we'll make it into a very good site for future development by somebody we'll let other countries develop parts of it
it'll be beautiful people can come from all over the world and live there but we're going to take care of the Palestinians we're going to make sure they live beautifully and in Harmony and in peace and that they're not murdered this has been the most dangerous site anywhere in the world to live in Hamas has been a disaster and by the way I have to tell you that I watched The Host just come back today and they look like Hol Holocaust Survivors they were in horrible condition they were emaciated it looked like many years ago
the Holocaust Survivors and I don't know how much longer we could take that when I watch that I know we have a deal where we're supposed to get they dribble in and keep dribbling in but they are in really bad shap they have been treated brutally horribly even the ones that came out earlier they were in a little bit better shape but mentally they were treated so badly who could who could take that uh you know at some point we're going to lose our patience when I see that scene that I saw it today with
people coming out of helicopters and airplanes that are emaciated that look like they haven't had a meal in a month no reason for that and I don't know how much longer we can take do you mean you want to recast I don't know how long we can take it when I watched people that were healthy people a reasonably short number of years ago and you look at them today they look like they've aged 25 years they they they literally look like the old pictures of Holocaust Survivors the same thing I mean the same thing and
I don't know how long we're going to take that Mr President have you gotten some advancement in your proposals for some of the gulf or Arab Nations to take some of the Palestinian people and if not like what do you think the reason is for their hesitant is there some very honest reason that they've even told you privately or that you think why they're hesitant to take the Palestinian people why are they hesitant to take them because they never spoke to me they spoke to other people they didn't speak to me when they speak to
me they're going to take them is it because they they think that you were not allow them to return to Gaza is that part of it they don't want to return to Gaza if we could give them a home in a safer area the only reason they're talking about returning G to Gaza is they don't have an alternative when they have an alternative they don't want to return to Gaza if they had a home that was safe where you don't have Hamas uh threatening them killing them torturing them uh they'd rather not return to Gaza
but right now Gaza is the only alternative as far as the other regions the only reason they maybe don't act enthusiastic is they haven't talked to me they talk to other people but not to me when they talk to me they'll be enthusiastic and then on on spending you found some maybe questionable expenditures or Elon Musk found them not some questionable uh the whole country looks like it's a fraud it's fraud waste abuse but it's a tremendous fraud and what Elon and his group of geniuses have found is unbelievable it's unbelievable and that's just a
us Aid soon we're going into education it'll you'll find the same thing but bigger soon we're going into the military and you're going to find a lot of bad things happening there uh you'll find it because our government has not functioned properly for many many years and we're going to make it function properly uh we're even looking at treasuries there could be a problem you've been reading about that with treasuries and that could be an interesting problem because it could be that a lot of those things don't count in other words that some of that
stuff that we're finding is very fraudulent therefore maybe we have less debt than we thought of think of that so a lot of things are happening but elon's doing an excellent job we started with 12 guys with high IQs and now we have a 100 guys with very high IQ do you think Congress has failed to do their oversight or do you think your first Administration some of your cabinet agencies failed I think everybody failed I think everybody just put outest Elon Financial disclosure remains secret uh because nobody's looking at that we're looking at all
the corruption that's taking place I mean his financial disclosure is largely the number of shares that he's got in very public companies and and that's not Secret at all if you read that you'll see a lot I mean he talks about his whole thing I read one where it really gave a very good history of him but basically it's a number of shares times a certain stock price so why is that not public it is public all you have to do is read it on usid Sir on usid Sir what is kind of like the
message to countries that depend on humanitarian Aid distributed through usid what is your message to those countries sir uh the ones that have been the few that have been legitimate in terms of getting legitimate money will probably put it through the state department it'll be handled by Marco Rubi a highly respected man Secretary of State there's no reason for us Aid when you look at the politicians that have been in there sucking the blood out of it when you look at all of the fake deals I mean look all you have to do is get
a list of all of the things you can see by the The Heading it's fake it's fraudulent it's probably Kickbacks where they send the money and then it gets kicked back to the person that sent it so the ones that are good and there are not many of them but the ones that are good and there are some uh will'll probably have that be handled by Marco Rubio in the state department they take on some of the usid workers or could if they like called us Mr I don't know that it's going to exist why
would you need it the state department can take care of do you think the amount of spending on foreign aid will decrease also the number of employes it should decrease yeah I I hope it decreases Yeah by when we have when we have $36 trillion in debt and we're taking care of countries that are very rich and sending Aid to countries in some cases that are rich in some cases they're not rich but no it should uh very much decrease but it won't be it won't be the scams that you've seen another that NIH put
out a memo on Friday night it's going to cut 4 billion from from the percenters that they play to play to universities and public colleges and all those States not foreign countries 4 billion is that okay to take off top it could be okay you have to look at the University some are legit uh you could also say why we giving money to Harvard when it's got a $50 billion endowment 50 billion and yet they don't use that endowment to help their students this is for research like biomedical research and what that's fine look we
want to take care of research we want to do a lot of things but when you look at uh the usaid and you look at all the things and all the the scams that was with I don't have to go through it now but I'll get you a list and you'll see one after another there were very few legitimate it was the opposite usually you find something wrong like one out of a 100 but this is the opposite here almost everything was wrong you find very few that were good but there was some that were
good that'll be handled by the state department I assume that's not final yet but I think the best would be Mark Rubio at the state department one or two more spending too much on launch Services is the Pentagon spending too much from launch services to space I think space is going to be a very important ele you know I'm the one that came up with the space force I'm very proud of it Biden tried to get out of it and he was really rebuked by the military I think space is going to be one of
the most important things we do it's going to be all about space especially defense so uh space is very important you're going president would you accept Palestinian refugees into the United States since you're looking to other countries i' have to look I think it's a very far distance for them to travel uh but I'd have to look at individual cases but I do think that coming into the United States we've taken a lot of people but coming into the United States it's a long way for them to travel they're far away from their families and
their friends and everything else I think they'd be very happy staying in the general area with a in a place that was safe where they could be safe and lead a good life they don't want to go back to Gaza as I said I've said it a lot they only go back because they have no alternative they don't want to go back to Gaza so we'll see we hope that we'll be helped by Egypt we hope that we'll be helped by Jordan we hope that we'll be helped by other countries we hope help hope that
some of the uh like Saudi Arabia and others can spend some money on it they have tremendous amounts of money they'll spend some money on uh making people comfortable and safe one question about the Super Bowl uh you're going to the game one of the big things that you've done so far in office is cracking down on Dei I saw that the NFL commissioner said I think this week that they're happy with their Diversity Program what your take on that would you like to see any changes there I don't know what the Diversity Program is
uh to be honest I know Roger very well I'd have to look at what he said he's happy with he was happy also with the flag and a lot of other things that didn't work out too well uh we'll have to see what he was happy with but uh right now that's uh you know what the laws the laws the law and a chang and it's been backed up by the US Supreme Court but uh we'll we'll see there are a lot of interesting things going on right now I'll tell you what there's a light
over the United States people are happy they more confident the uh approval ratings for this country have gone through the sky more than at any time we've had approval ratings that there's never been anything like it we've never SE 49 points up 49 points up and I think uh there's a light actually long Beyond this country all over the world I've been called by other leaders they said sir there's a light over our country right now there's a light over the world we got rid of a horrible and totally inept Administration an Administration where the
president wouldn't even go and do a Super Bowl interview for four years I mean he didn't do a Super Bowl interview I did you'll see it in about uh one or two hours what what is your analysis of the football game sir on whether the referees have been throwing the games to the Chiefs all season I don't believe that your Anis of the I think you're going have a great game it's two great teams I don't who knows who's going to win you have great players though you have really Superstars playing on both teams so
I think it's going to be a great game why do you want to be chairman of the Kennedy Center board because I want to make sure it runs properly we don't need woke at the Kennedy Center we don't need some of the shows were terrible there are disgrace that they were even put on so I'll be there until such time as it gets to be running right have you seen any shows there how do you know there I didn't go no I I got reports that were so bad I didn't want to I didn't want
to go there was nothing I wanted to see thank you very much everybody [Music]
