President Trump emerged from the Oval at 12:35p with Secretary Hegseth and others. He did not take shouted questions. He waved. He stopped. He pumped a fist. He boarded Marine One at 12:36 p.m.

Your ink-stained pooler has been informed the departure, in a new development, that may have been broadcast live from the South Lawn. If so, a new development. Will effort an answer on any policy change here.

More TK.
