A White House official shares with the pool that President Trump watched the splashdown of Artemis II. A TV was wheeled into the room for the president and his MAGA Inc. guests at Trump Winery. The events here have remained closed press, though we did spot the president briefly stepping outside earlier to take in the view of his vineyards.

The pool is holding during the MAGA Inc. meeting and roundtable dinner. I'll send updates if anything opens. Both events are currently closed press. Steven Nelson New York Post Signal/cell: XXX-XXX-XXXX
Marine One touched down at Trump Winery at 6:26. The press had already loaded into vans for the short drive. Susie Wiles and Chris LaCivita were among the passengers on M1.

Air Force One landed at Charlottesville-Albemarle Airport at 5:52. We will be loading into helicopters soon en route to Trump winery. Here's a rush transcript from JBA (with minor abbreviations): Q: His message to VP Vance? “Well, I wish him luck. He’s got a big thing. We'll find out what's going on.” “They are militarily defeated and now we are going to open up the gulf with or without them. And that will be open.”…
Pool held at the Paris Airport-Le Bourget during the refueling and did not see the VP. We are back on AF2 and expecting to be wheels up shortly.

Marine One landed at 5:07 at JBA. President Trump disembarked at 5:11, followed by his son Eric. "I wish him well," Trump said of VP Vance arriving in Pakistan for Iran talks.

We will be wheels up shortly en route to Charlottesvi…
No quotes; no news. The president, accompanied by son Eric, exited the Oval at 4:55. His only interaction with the pool were three waves as he remained in conversation with his son. Marine One lifted off at 4:59 into the blue sky on a beautiful Spring day in DC.
Pool is gathering for South Lawn departure.

Democrats in Congress, however, are attempting to sabotage these efforts as they block critical funding for the Department of Homeland Security and shield sanctuary jurisdictions that harbor these monsters — leaving Americans defenseless against horrific violence…
We have a lunch lid until 1:30 p.m.
Good morning from JBA ahead of the vice president’s trip to Pakistan. M2 landed at 8:23 a.m. and the VP made brief remarks to the pool before boarding AF2. “We’re looking forward to negotiation.

If they're going to try to play us, th…
