Trump 2nd term live updates: Dan Bongino named as deputy FBI director

At the White House governors event, there was a tense exchange between President Trump and Maine's Democratic Gov. Janet Mills. The back-and-forth came as Trump discussed his executive order banning transgender athletes from women's sports.

"Are you not going to comply with that?" Trump asked Mills directly. She responded that she was "complying with state and federal laws."

"Well I'm -- we are the federal law," Trump said. "You better do it, you better do it because you're not going to get any federal funding at all if you don't," he said.

"See you in court," Mills said.

"Good. I'll see you in court. I look forward to that. That should be an easy one. And enjoy your life after governor, because I don't think you'll be in elected politics," Trump said.

Trump spoke for more than an hour as he hosted governors at the White House, and in the process repeated several debunked claims about the alleged findings of the Department of Government Efficiency.

He again repeated that millions of people over the age of 100 are "on our Social Security rolls."

Policy experts and economists told ABC News that Elon Musk and Trump are getting it wrong on Social Security, likely misreading the database as they falsely imply millions of dead Americans are receiving benefits.

Trump also repeated the false claim that the federal government was sending upward of $100 million on condoms to Hamas. In fact, the condoms were sent to a province in Mozambique named Gaza as part of an HIV prevention measure. and not at that cost.

Musk backtracked on that claim in the Oval Office last week, where he admitted to reporters that he would make mistakes and should be corrected. "Nobody's going to bat a thousand," Musk had said.

As he welcomed Republican and Democratic governors to the White House, Trump continued to speak on Russia-Ukraine negotiations.

"I've had very good talks with Putin," Trump said. "And I've had not such good talks with Ukraine."

"They don't have any cards, but they play it tough," he continued. "But we're not we're not going to let this continue. This war is terrible. It wouldn’t never happened if I were president. But it did happen."

The comments come as Trump escalates criticism of Ukraine, calling Volodymyr Zelenskyy a "dictator" and falsely blaming Ukraine for starting the war. The U.S. and Russia held talks earlier this week on ending the conflict, with Zelenskyy not invited.

Trump continued to express frustration with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in an interview with Fox News Radio host Brian Kilmeade.

Trump was repeatedly pressed about who was to blame for the war starting, but he sidestepped each time. He at one point seemed to concede that Russia did attack Ukraine, but still blamed Ukraine for not making concessions.

"Every time I say, oh, it's not Russia's fault, I always get slammed by the fake news. But I'm telling you, Biden said the wrong things," Trump said. "Zelenskyy said the wrong things."

Trump seemed particularly upset about the first mineral resources deal that Ukraine rejected. A U.S. official with knowledge of the negotiations said a new version has been put on the table.

"I've been watching for years, and I've been watching him negotiate with no cards. He has no cards. And you get sick of it. You just get sick of it. And I've had it," Trump said of Zelenskyy.

"But we made a deal with rare earth, and Secretary of Treasury, a very good guy, actually went there, and they couldn't even come close to getting a deal done," Trump said. "And frankly, I wish he didn't go there, waste all of his time like that, but they couldn't get close. They met, right, and then when he wanted to get it close, he was unable to meet him again. But so just a wasted trip, a dangerous trip, too."
