President Trump Hosts First Cabinet Meeting, Feb 26, 2025

On February 26, 2025, President Trump held his first Cabinet meeting of his second term, joined by Elon Musk, who leads the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to cut $1 trillion from the federal budget. The meeting focused on extending tax cuts, imposing tariffs, and avoiding entitlement cuts while addressing the $36 trillion debt.
