Trump admin live updates: Gov. says 'no need' after Trump directs troops to Portland

Ahead of hosting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House on Monday, President Donald Trump posted to social media teasing successful negotiations among "all" parties in the Middle East -- claiming "something special" is on the horizon for "greatness" in the region.

"We have a real chance for GREATNESS IN THE MIDDLE EAST. ALL ARE ON BOARD FOR SOMETHING SPECIAL, FIRST TIME EVER. WE WILL GET IT DONE," Trump wrote on social media. It was not immediately clear which countries or leaders Trump was referring to.

The post comes days after Trump reported "inspired and productive" discussions regarding a possible ceasefire deal in the Gaza Strip.

The top four congressional leaders will meet with President Donald Trump at the White House on Monday ahead of the government funding deadline, a White House official and multiple congressional sources confirmed to ABC News.

House Speaker Mike Johnson, Senate Majority Leader John Thune, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries are expected to be in attendance.

This comes after Trump canceled a previously scheduled meeting with congressional leaders.

Democrats have been demanding a bipartisan meeting to address government funding. They also want provisions included in the funding bill that would protect health care programs, including an extension of the Affordable Care Act enhanced tax credits.

Punchbowl News first reported the meeting.

Gov. Tina Kotek joined Portland officials Saturday afternoon to push back against Trump's order to send federal troops to the city.

"There is no need for military troops in our city," she said at the news conference adding that any federal takeover was a "threat to communities across Oregon."

She warned Oregon residents "not to take the bait."

"Let's not respond to what the President is trying to do. We have to raise our voices, absolutely, peacefully, to the things that we believe in. I also want to say that property damage, or violence of any kind, will get us nowhere and will not be tolerated," she said.

Portland Chief of Police Bob Day told reporters that despite the president's claims, he has not seen an uptick in violent unrest.

"We have had literally tens upon thousands of Portlanders walking the streets in our parks, expressing their First Amendment right, their opinion, their dissidence, with what they're seeing happening on a federal or even a local level, and yet we have not had arrests," he said.

"We have not had vandalism, we have not had the challenges that we have faced in years past," he added.

Portland Mayor Keith Wilson called the potential troop deployment a "show of force."

"After a big show everyone goes home and that's what I want to happen here today," he said.

Trump said Saturday that he's directed Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth to provide "all necessary troops" to Portland, Oregon, and to any other ICE facility that is facing threats from the antifa movement or from any other domestic terrorists.

Trump said on social media that he's authorizing "Full Force," if necessary.

Antifa is not a group, but rather a political philosophy or movement. The term comes from the longer "anti-fascist" and is used as a catchall for groups that oppose the concept of authoritarianism, neo-Nazism and white supremacy.

Portland Mayor Keith Wilson told reporters Friday night that there has been a sudden influx of federal agents in the city.

"We did not ask for them to come. They are here without precedent or purpose,” he said.

On Thursday, the president signed a presidential memorandum directing an administration-wide effort aimed at cracking down on alleged "domestic terrorism" and "organized political violence."

He has threatened to send National Guard troops to cities to assist with ICE operations and combat crime.
