Trump 2nd term live updates: ICE arrests 956 undocumented immigrants on Sunday

Several GOP lawmakers are standing behind Defense secretary nominee Pete Hegseth in light of new accusations of abusive behavior. The allegations came in a sworn affidavit by Hegseth's former sister-in-law obtained by Democrats.

"My understanding is that both his wife and his -- he himself said it's not accurate. That's what I go by," Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, told reporters.

"His wife said it was not true. This is just the Democrats doing what they're doing. They're obstructing Trump putting together a team," said Republican Sen. Rick Scott.

Meanwhile, Democratic Sen. Tim Kaine of Virginia stressed the validity of the affidavit and urged his GOP colleagues to consider the severity of the allegations as they vote on what he called "probably the single most important position that the Senate has to consider in any president's cabinet."

Elon Musk is continuing to publicly criticize the artificial intelligence "Stargate" deal that Trump touted at the White House.

Musk just reshared a long post on X from a user who sharply called the venture into question. The user called the $500 billion price tag for the project "ridiculous" and said "no one should take it seriously."

Trump rolled out the AI investment on Tuesday alongside tech CEOs who heaped praise upon him.

But overnight, Musk poured cold water on it.

"They don't actually have the money," Musk said, seemingly questioning the financial footing of OpenAI, one of the companies involved in the deal.

The Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation voted to advance the nomination of Sean Duffy to be Trump's transportation secretary.

Duffy's nomination was unanimously approved by the committee by a vote of 28-0.

His nomination will now advance to the Senate floor for a confirmation vote. The date and timing of the vote has not yet been determined.

Duffy is a former congressman and co-hosted "The Bottom Line" on Fox Business. When Trump tapped Duffy for the post, he said he would prioritize rebuilding the nation's infrastructure and on eliminating DEI in certain fields.

Trump and first lady Melania Trump are celebrating a major milestone Wednesday -- their 20th wedding anniversary.

Trump took to his social media platform to wish his wife a happy anniversary.

The guest list included Bill and Hillary Clinton, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, Simon Cowell, Usher, Billy Joel and others.
