00:00The question for you regarding the administration complying with judges' orders, I want to
00:06ask about an administration spokesperson whose the borders are, Tom Homan.
00:12He was on Fox News.
00:13We love Tom Homan.
00:15And he was talking about the deportations and he said the following, he said, we're
00:18not stopping.
00:20I don't care what the judges think, which seems to me, just reading that, that you don't
00:26care what orders come from the federal bench.
00:30Is that the case?
00:31Can you clarify that, please?
00:32Well, I think since you just quoted Tom, I'll quote Tom, he said, I don't care what the
00:36judges think, but I can assure you that the administration is complying with the court
00:41order.
00:42And as I've said repeatedly from this podium, all of the flights that were subject to the
00:46judge's written order departed before the written order.
00:49And we are prepared to make that case in court later this afternoon.
00:54Reagan.
00:55And then if I could, on Russia, the President, as you pointed out, Caroline, made some remarks
00:59on Air Force One coming back from Florida, and he seemed to indicate that the conversation
01:03tomorrow concerns essentially dividing up assets, dividing up territory associated with
01:10the war in Ukraine.
01:12Has President Zelensky given President Trump that authority?
01:17Is that what is going to take place tomorrow?
01:19Well, as you know, the President and his entire national security team have been engaged directly
01:25with President Zelensky and the Ukrainian team, and that has been part of the discussion
01:30between the President's team and the Ukrainians.
01:34As for where those lines will be drawn or any specifics, I am not going to get into
01:37that from this podium.
01:38It would be unwise for me to get ahead of the President's call with President Putin
01:43tomorrow.
01:44But again, I can assure you, in the effort of transparency, as this President always
01:48does, you will hear from him or one of us directly after that phone call tomorrow.
01:52Reagan.
01:53Thank you, Caroline.
01:54Have a great day.
