Additional quotes...

Leaker: Early in event POTUS said that they'd caught a “leaker," without context.

"The leaker has been found, and is in jail right now — and that's the leaker on Venezuela, a very bad leaker. There could be some others. We're hot on their trail. But the leaker has been found ... and will probably be in jail for a long time. We'll see what happens.”

Greenland: "I'm not going to give up options. ... The problem is there's not a thing that Denmark can do about it if Russia or China wants to occupy Greenland, but there's everything we can do. You found that out last week with Venezuela. ... I can't rely on Denmark being able to fend themselves off.”

Fraud position at DOJ: Trump declined to name person being hired for new Assistant Attorney General position dedicated to rooting out fraud. Only said “it’s a he."

Upcoming SCOTUS tariff ruling: "We're building auto plants all over the country. We're building AI all over the country. We're leading China by a lot, and a lot of it has to do with tariffs. That would be very disappointing decision, and especially since the people that are fighting me are people that want China to do well. And we're doing great against China. We're doing great against everybody. We were the hottest country anywhere in the world, as they say often.”
