Trump says 3rd term isn't a joke, despite term limit

As ceasefire talks resumed on Monday between America and Russian negotiators in Saudi Arabia, Secretary of State Marco Rubio said during Monday's Cabinet meeting that the war will only end through diplomacy.

"There is no military solution to this war," Rubio said. "It has to end through negotiation. And there's only one leader in the world that's capable of bringing two sides to a table and that’s our president."

"So today, even as we speak, we have teams on the ground in Saudi Arabia meeting with the respective sides in the hopes of making progress towards this outcome that we all want to see," Rubio said.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said during Monday's Cabinet meeting that the department is "going to eliminate FEMA."

Noem didn't elaborate any further or provide specifics.

President Donald Trump has long been a vocal critic of FEMA, the agency tasked with responding to natural disasters and emergencies. But he doesn't have the authority to terminate the agency unilaterally, according to federal laws.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem touted deportation numbers so far at Trump's Cabinet meeting.

"We're now not even just getting the worst of the worst out. We're making sure that there's consequence for being here and committing crimes in our communities," she said.

Noem also said she will be going to El Salvador this week to visit the prison where the administration sent alleged Tren de Aragua gang members -- deportation flights that have faced intense legal scrutiny after the administration didn't turn the planes around despite a judge's order to do so.

"I'll be meeting with the president and also Colombia and Mexico and talking about building these relationships so that we can continue to get people out of this country that don't belong here and take them home," Noem said.

President Donald Trump's Cabinet meeting began with officials touting "waste, fraud and abuse" they claim to have identified at their various agencies, including the Small Business Administration, Department of Agriculture and the Environmental Protection Agency.

Trump, though, admitted it is "not necessarily a very popular thing" to make cuts to staff.

"You know, you're talking about employment, you're talking about people and the lives of people. And yet, I think the American public understands we're trying to save our country and make our country great again," Trump said.

"And I have no idea how it plays out in the public," he continued. "I have --I guess you see, poll numbers that have very good numbers, but I don't know what that means long term. But it's something that has to be done."

Polls have shown that while Americans support efficiency and progress in broad terms, they don't like some of the specifics of what the administration's done.
