Trump admin live updates: Trump says Musk will 'pay the consequences' if he funds Democrats

Attorney General Pam Bondi spoke briefly with the press after it was announced that Kilmar Abrego Garcia had been returned from the U.S. from an El Salvadorian prison.

"Our government presented El Salvador with an arrest warrant and they agreed to return him to our country," she said.

Bondi said if Abrego Garcia is convicted of the charges, upon the completion of his sentence he will be deported back to his home country of El Salvador.

A reporter asked Bondi about what circumstances have changed since Abrego Garcia was pulled over in that 2021 traffic stop in Tennessee where he was not taken into custody.

"What has changed is Donald Trump is now President of the United States, and our borders are again secure, and thanks to the bright light that has been shined on Abrego Garcia," she said

A former inmate who was previously pardoned by President Donald Trump has been tapped to be the No. 2 at the Bureau of Prisons, according to an internal memo sent to BOP staff on Thursday.

Josh Smith, who spent five years in federal prison for drug trafficking and received a pardon during the final days of the Trump's first term, will become the deputy director, a position which does not require Senate confirmation.

Smith, according to the Bureau of Prisons Director William Marshall, turned his life around after leaving jail, founding a multimillion-dollar company that helps people kick drug addiction.

"Josh brings to this role something our agency has never had before at this level: a perspective shaped by lived experience, proven innovation, and national impact," Marshall said in a message to staff. "Josh has spent more than two decades working with corrections leaders across the country and internationally to transform prison culture, support staff development, and reduce recidivism."

President Donald Trump announced Friday afternoon that Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent, Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick and U.S. Trade Representative, Ambassador Jamieson Greer, will meet in London on Monday with Chinese government representatives "with reference to the Trade Deal."

"The meeting should go very well. Thank you for your attention to this matter!" he said on Truth Social.

Elon Musk has stayed away from targeting President Donald Trump directly on Friday after Thursday's barrage of personal attacks, shifting instead to one of the president's closest longtime allies, Steve Bannon.

Overnight and multiple times Friday, Musk has repeatedly taken to X and blasted Bannon, who has long been critical of Musk even when the billionaire joined the administration.

Musk ripped Bannon when responding to clips from Bannon's WarRoom podcast, where he unloaded on the billionaire, including calling on Trump to seize control of SpaceX.

In one post, Musk wrote that the move would be "a crime" and that Bannon is a criminal.
