31:15Now PlayingWhite House press secretary Karoline Leavitt will hold a press conference Wednesday afternoon, just a day after President Trump gave his first address to a joint session of Congress since returning to office in January.
Tuesday’s event gave Trump a chance to underscore his sweeping actions during the first six weeks of second term — from overhauling the federal workforce to robust immigration policies to executive orders on diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs, gender and education, among other issues — and to defend his actions to critics.
Still two issues rise to the top: ending the war in Ukraine and the economy, including the president’s tariffs on goods from Canada, Mexico and China.
The briefing comes as a mineral deal between Washington and Kyiv is still on the line after the U.S. froze aid to Ukraine following a spat between Trump and Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky at the Oval Office last week — and as Americans continue to face rising costs.
The event is scheduled to begin at 1 p.m. EST.
