Sec Bessent said my Qs were a “doomer view” and new data showing Americans are saving a smaller share of their income than at any other time in the past 4 years could be because “people have more confidence.”

[ABC News @ABC]

As inflation hits its highest level in nearly three years, ABC News' Karen Travers asked Secretary Scott Bessent if he's "seeing signs that American households are dipping into their savings to pay for the higher costs of things like gas and groceries." https://t.co/cgIq2SOrBs

[Karen Travers @karentravers]

I asked the President this Q to clarify something he said earlier in the gaggle ("The only thing that matters when I'm talking about Iran, they can't have a nuclear weapon. I don't think about American financial situation.")

He doubled down & said "every American understands"

[Acyn @Acyn]

Reporter: Did you say you're not considering the financial impact of this war on Americans?!?!?!

Trump: The most important thing is Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon.

Reporter: What about the pressure on Americans right now?

Trump: EVERY AMERICAN UNDERSTANDS. They just did a poll!

[ABC News Live @ABCNewsLive]

Peace negotiations to end the U.S.-Iran war have stalled after President Trump called Iran's proposal response “unacceptable” and “a piece of garbage” that he didn’t even finish reading, adding that the current ceasefire with Iran is “unbelievably weak.”

I asked the President tonight about his briefings on hantavirus:
"It's very much-we hope-under control. It was the ship, and I think we're going to make a full report about it tomorrow. We have a lot of people, a lot of great people, are studying it. It should be fine. We hope."

[Acyn @Acyn]

Trump on Hantavirus: We should be fine.

Reporter: Should Americans be concerned that it’s going to spread?

Trump: I hope not.

[Acyn @Acyn]

Trump on Hantavirus: We should be fine.

The Hilton donated the ~2600 dinners that went unserved at WHCD. They freeze dried the steak and lobster for longer shelf life before giving them to 2 shelters for abused women and children. HUGE thank you to the staff that worked through the night under terrible circumstances.

When asked by ABC News’ Karen Travers about those displaced by Israel’s ongoing offensive in Lebanon, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said it is “of course” a concern for President Trump.

Q: "Did Kevin Warsh commit to you that he will push to cut interest rates if he is confirmed?"

President Trump: "No, but we talk about it I've been following him. I don't want to ask him that question. I think it's inappropriate, probably...I want to keep it nice and pure."
