Trump administration updates: Schumer continues to face calls for new leadership

President Donald Trump was asked about his harsh comments against the suspects accused of vandalizing Tesla dealerships in the country, hours after he vowed to send them to El Salvadorian prisons.

Trump continued his rhetoric and called the suspects "terrorists."

"You didn't have that on Jan. 6, I can tell you. You didn't have anything like that on January 6th, which is sort of amazing," he said before falsely claiming that the only person who died during the attack on the Capitol was one of the rioters.

Approximately 140 Capitol Police officers were injured by rioters.

Four officers who responded to the Capitol attack have since died by suicide.

Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick died after suffering multiple strokes hours after he was pepper sprayed by rioters.

Trump pardoned all of the suspects and convicted felons linked to Jan. 6 after returning to office in January.

There have been no deaths or injuries reported at the Tesla protests, however some cars have been set on fire and damaged, according to law enforcement.

President Donald Trump was asked about the newly returned Starliner crew members and whether they would get overtime for their extended stay on the International Space Station.

"Nobody's ever mentioned this to me. If I have to, I'll pay out of my own pocket," he claimed.

After Elon Musk's meeting at the Pentagon earlier Friday, President Donald Trump continued to deny a New York Times report that Musk was going to receive a briefing on a top-secret military plan for potential war with China.

"I don't want to show that to anybody. But certainly, you wouldn't show it to a businessman who is helping us so much. He's a great patriot ... But I certainly wouldn't want -- you know, Elon has businesses in China, and he would be susceptible perhaps to that. But it was such a fake story," Trump told reporters in the Oval Office.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said Musk was at the Pentagon to talk about the Department of Government Efficiency.

"There was no war plans. There was no Chinese war plans. There was no secret plans. That's not what we were doing at the Pentagon," Hegseth said.

President Donald Trump was pressed further on deportation flights and reports that some individuals included were not members of Tren de Aragua or MS-13.

"Well, I was told that they went through a very strong vetting process and that, that will also be continuing in El Salvador. And if there's anything like that, we would certainly want to find out," Trump said. "But these were a bad group."

"We will continue that process, absolutely," Trump added. "We don't want to make that kind of a mistake."

Meanwhile, the Trump administration in court has declined to provide any additional information about the flights.

"Mr. President, do you think you have the authority, the power, to round up people, deport them and then you're under no obligation to a court to show the evidence against them?" ABC News White House Correspondent Karen Travers asked Trump.

"That's what the law says and that's what our country needs," Trump responded.
