Live updates: Trump talks to Fox News' Sean Hannity in first Oval Office interview
President Trump is sitting down with Fox News' Sean Hannity Thursday night in his first network interview since he became president for a second time this week.
They went over a host of topics, including FEMA, TikTok pardons and former President Biden.
Trump's administration has been busy, signing a slew of executive orders and partaking in executive actions that include warning federal workers in roles related to diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) that they would be placed on paid leave in less than 24 hours. And it ordered the Pentagon to send 1,500 additional troops to the southern border.
Meanwhile, the House earlier Wednesday passed the Laken Riley Act, sending it to Trump's desk for his first legislative win.
And in the Senate, Transportation secretary nominee Sean Duffy sailed through a Senate panel and his confirmation may now head to the floor.
Follow along for the latest news.
