About Donald Trump

45th and 47th U.S. President · US Executive Branch & The Trump Organization

On June 10, 2026, President Donald Trump signed the Secure America Act in the Oval Office, a $70 billion budget reconciliation bill that funds immigration enforcement and border security operations through Fiscal Year 2029. Trump stated that the legislation provides $38 billion to ICE and $26 billion to Border Patrol, and he praised Republican congressional leaders including Speaker Mike Johnson, Senate Majority Leader John Thune, and House Majority Leader Steve Scalise. During the signing, Trump also took questions from reporters and said the U.S. would resume attacking Iran "very hard," citing a helicopter incident and stating that Iran had taken too long to negotiate a deal. He described the ongoing military action as a "conflict" or "military operation" rather than a war, and predicted that oil prices would drop to around $1.85 per gallon once it concluded. In a June 6 interview with NBC's Meet the Press, Trump said the Iran conflict was "not an endless war" and that the threat was "largely over." He stated that the U.S. was "very close" to a nuclear deal with Iran but insisted no sanctions would be lifted or assets unfrozen until an agreement was finalized. Trump also defended a proposed "anti-weaponization fund" for people he said were harmed by the legal system under the Biden administration, and said he would pay applicants "the kind of money they deserve." The interview ended abruptly after Trump accused NBC and host Kristen Welker of being "crooked" and walked out, repeating unsubstantiated claims that the 2020 election and a California election were rigged.
