TRUMP PRESS SECRETARY DEFENDS MASS DEPORTATIONS, ISSUES WARNING TO IRAN

In this full White House press briefing, Trump Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt lays out the administration’s agenda on immigration, national security, and economic reform. She announces a 93% drop in illegal border crossings since Trump took office and confirms that zero illegal aliens were released into the interior of the U.S. in May. Leavitt details the launch of what she calls the largest mass deportation operation in American history, targeting criminal illegal aliens in sanctuary cities. On Iran, she delivers a message directly from President Trump: if negotiations don’t materialize, a decision on possible military action will be made within two weeks. She also confirms ongoing communications with Iran, recent Israeli strikes on nuclear facilities, and the administration’s preparedness to defend U.S. interests if needed. Leavitt affirms the president's stance that Iran cannot be allowed to obtain a nuclear weapon, citing previous assassination attempts and heightened global tensions.

Leavitt also confirms Trump’s executive order to extend the TikTok ban by 90 days and outlines the rationale behind it, including privacy concerns and ongoing negotiations. She touts the administration’s economic wins, including a near 2% rise in real blue-collar wages—the highest growth in nearly 60 years—and previews the “One Big, Beautiful Bill,” which could raise take-home pay by $14,000 for families. She supports new student visa vetting procedures announced by Secretary of State Marco Rubio and reaffirms Trump’s push to remove illegal aliens from Medicaid rolls. Leavitt calls the Supreme Court’s decision to uphold Tennessee’s ban on transgender medical procedures for minors a “huge victory,” and defines the Trump Doctrine in one phrase: “America First Always.” The briefing closes with sharp pushback against Rep. Jasmine Crockett’s claim that Trump supporters are “mentally ill,” defending the movement as made up of hardworking, patriotic Americans. From foreign policy and border security to economic reform and cultural battles, this briefing delivers a full look into Trump’s second-term priorities.
