Trump admin live updates: Trump pardons former entertainment exec indicted by own DOJ

From the Oval Office on Tuesday, President Donald Trump touted the sweeping $6.25 billion contribution from philanthropic billionaires Michael and Susan Dell that builds on his "Trump account" initiative.

The donations from the Dells will deposit $250 into savings accounts for 25 million children ages 10 and under. They apply to children living in ZIP codes where the median income is below $150,000.

"Trump accounts will be the first, I guess you could say, real trust funds for every American child, allowing family members, employers, corporations, generous donors to contribute money that will be invested and grow over the course of a child's life, to be used for their benefit after they turn 18," Trump said on Tuesday.

Flanked by the Dell couple and a few key members of Congress, including House Speaker Mike Johnson, Trump highlighted the fact that the "Trump account" came out of his major policy framework -- the One Big Beautiful Bill Act -- that passed this summer.

"Michael and Susan, I want to thank you for this extraordinary act of kindness and patriotism and charity. This is truly one of the most generous acts in the history of our country," Trump said on Tuesday. "As I mentioned, this gift is being made possible by the largest tax cuts in American history, which our Republican majorities passed earlier this year."

Trump said that in addition to the Dells’ contribution, he expects "hundreds of major companies to announce plans to contribute to these accounts in the coming months."

Trump also said that contributions from employers to these Trump accounts will be tax free.

In remarks on the Senate floor Tuesday morning, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer called on Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to publicly release the full video of the attack on a vessel in the Caribbean Sea on Sept. 2, which killed survivors of a military strike against a suspected drug boat.

"Pete Hegseth should release the full tapes of the Sept. 2 attack. Both the first and second strike. Not a clip. Not some edited or redacted snippet. The full unedited tapes of each strike must be released so the American people can see what happened with their own eyes," Schumer said on the Senate floor. "Now Pete Hegseth said he did nothing wrong. So prove it."

Schumer called the "failure of leadership" at the Pentagon a "national embarrassment."

Schumer called for Department of Defense briefings on the strikes and said that Hegseth should be present for those briefings.

Trump continued to go after Somali immigrants in Minnesota, alleging that they had been "ripping people off."

"They contribute nothing. I don't want them in our country," the president said.

There are more than 58,800 Minnesotans of Somali descent as of 2018, according to the Minnesota government.

Trump referred to the Somalis as "garbage" and claimed that all they do is "complain."

"We don't want them in our country. Let them go back to where they came from and fix it," he said as he ended the meeting and received applause from Cabinet leaders.

Hegseth clarified comments he gave back in September after the boat strike on Sept. 2 of a suspected drug boat where he claimed he saw the attack take place live.

At the time, he and the White House did not disclose that a second strike was ordered on the boat.

Asked if he saw survivors of that second strike, Hegseth reiterated that he did see the initial strike live, but did not see the follow-up attack -- and did not personally see survivors.

"As you can imagine, the Department of War, we got a lot of things to do. So I didn't stick around for the hour and two hours, whatever, where all the sensitive site exploitation digitally occurs," he said.

"So I moved on to my next meeting. A couple of hours later, I learned that that commander had made the -- which he had the complete authority to do," Hegseth added.

The Defense Secretary later added he did not see any survivors.

"I did not personally see survivors ... because that thing was on fire," he said. "It was exploded and fire and smoke, you can't see anything ... This is called the fog of war."
