00:00We have this new deadline looming for this D.C. judge, for the D.O.J. to turn over these
00:04documents when it comes to the timelogues for these deportation flights.
00:07Is the administration going to turn over that information, the exact timelogues, the information
00:12that the D.C. court is asking for?
00:14I won't get ahead of our lawyers, but you'll hear from them in court.
00:16And a follow-up question.
00:17The Commerce Secretary yesterday said that Tesla stock is something that Americans should
00:21be buying.
00:22Is that the stance of the administration, that people should be investing in?
00:25Is that something that the Commerce Secretary should be recommending?
00:28I think the Commerce Secretary was reiterating that the president supports an American-made
00:33company like Tesla, who produces a very good product for the American people, which was
00:38beloved by the American people, particularly Democrats, until Elon Musk decided to vote
00:42for Donald Trump.
00:43And now we've seen despicable and unacceptable violence taking place across our country at
00:49Tesla dealerships against workers, employees, and also innocent Americans who drive these
00:53vehicles.
00:54It's actually a scary time in our country because of this political violence from the
00:58left.
00:59And the White House and the president's entire administration condemn it wholeheartedly.
01:03We'll see you guys at 4 o'clock.
