Trump admin updates: White House asks court to stay order to ground deportation flights

On Tuesday afternoon, Trump again criticized Rep. Thomas Massie's stance that he will vote no on the continuing resolution to keep the government funded. Trump said in a Truth Social post that he wanted Massie to be primaried, a threat he issued Monday night.

"He can’t even approve a Continuing Resolution when he approved them many times during his career as a 'Congressman,'" the president wrote. "Thomas Massie is a GRANDSTANDER, and the Great People of Kentucky are going to be watching a very interesting Primary in the not too distant future!"

ABC News' Karen Travers asked White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt whether the president had any responsibility over the recent drops in the stock market because of his economic policies.

Trump touted the stock markets gains after the election, but claimed that recently he wasn't watching the market.

Leavitt dodged the question.

"The president will look out for Wall Street and for Main Street just like he did in his first term," she said. "And people on Wall Street and Main Street should bet on this president."

After President Trump pledged to buy a Tesla Tuesday morning to support Elon Musk as the company's stock plummets, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said the car was on its way to the White House now.

"He is going to be viewing a Tesla that is making its way to the White House complex now, I can confirm," Leavitt told reporters.

She added, "He's definitely going to buy one, but he'll take a look at it when it gets here later this afternoon."

When asked about the controversial arrest of green card holder and Columbia University student Mahmoud Khalil, White House Karoline Leavitt press secretary maintained that Secretary of State Marco Rubio has the right to revoke a green card or visa over "national security" interests.

Leavitt claimed that Khalil distributed "pro-Hamas propaganda fliers with the logo of Hamas," but declined to give any more details.

"I have those fliers on my desk, they were provided to me by the Department of Homeland Security," she said. "I thought about bringing them into this briefing room to share with all of you, but I didn't think it was worth the dignity of this room," she said.
