President Donald Trump did not rule out seeking a third term for president when asked by NBC on Sunday, saying, “There are methods which you could do it."

“A lot of people want me to do it,” Trump said Sunday. “But, I mean, I basically tell them we have a long way to go, you know, it’s very early in the administration.”

Meanwhile, tariffs on imported autos are to go into effect on Wednesday. While economist predict Trump's tariffs will raise prices in the U.S., his tariffs czar, Peter Navarro, predicted they would result in tax cuts: "Tariffs are tax cuts, tariffs are jobs, tariffs are national security, tariffs are great for America," Navarro told Fox News.

Judge temporarily blocks defunding of Radio Free Europe

A federal judge has temporarily blocked the Trump administration from shutting down Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty.

U.S. Judge Royce Lamberth issued a temporary restraining order Tuesday afternoon that blocked the dismantling of the organization, finding the Trump administration’s attempt to defund the group was “unsupported by any facts or reasoning” and likely violated federal law.

“The leadership of [United States Agency for Global Media] cannot, with one sentence of reasoning offering virtually no explanation, force RFE/RL to shut down—even if the President has told them to do so,” wrote Judge Lamberth, a Reagan appointee.

Earlier this month, Trump signed an executive order directing multiple agencies including the US Agency for Global Media – which oversees Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty – to reduce to cut their functions to the minimum required by law. Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty sued last week to block the Trump administration from terminating its federal funding.

Trump downplays Yemen group chat fiasco

President Donald Trump was asked if anyone would be fired as a result of a journalist being inadvertently added to a group chat with top administration officials discussing a military operation in Yemen.

"We've pretty much looked into it. It's pretty simple, to be honest," Trump said. "It's not -- it's just something that can happen. It can happen."

Speaking on the use of Signal, Trump said, "It's not a perfect technology. There is no perfect technology."

Trump repeatedly said the information included in the chain was not classified. He did not respond to a shouted question from a reporter on who determined the material involved wasn't classified.

National security adviser Mike Waltz, who repeatedly tried to change the subject during the presser, added that the White House's legal team and tech team are looking into it.

"We're going to keep everything as secure as possible. No one in your national security team would ever put anyone in danger," he said.

Goldberg said he received a connection request on Signal from a user identified as Waltz, who was also in the group chat.
