White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt deflected the question of whether Trump thinks the Senate parliamentarian should be removed after her rejection of the Medicaid provision under Trump's bill, deferring to the president himself.

"I haven't spoken to him about that and I'll let him speak on it," she said. "However, again, he knows this is part of the process and the inner workings of a Senate and he wants to see this bill done."

Leavitt added that Trump "remains very much engaged" in conversations on both the House and Senate side regarding the bill.

The press secretary was asked about the recent leaks to the press claiming that "there's an effort on the outside of this building to try to divide the president's team on the inside."

"But I can assure you, the president's team is strong, especially the national security team. Everyone is very proud of the president, of our commander in chief and of our military for the successful operation that took place on Saturday night," she added.

Following the Senate parliamentarian's blocking of a key Medicaid provision from Trump's bill, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt recognized this as "part of the process" and reiterated the president's July Fourth deadline.

"I know that there was a ruling by the Senate parliamentarian this morning. Look, this is part of the process," she said. "This is part of the inner workings of the United States Senate, but the president is adamant about seeing this bill on his desk here at the White House by Independence Day."

"I think our friends in both the Senate and the House know exactly where the president stands on Medicaid," Leavitt added, emphasizing the president's desire to eliminate "waste, fraud, and abuse."

Next week is the deadline for the trade deals with the majority of other countries before the White House issues its tariffs.

Leavitt was asked if that deal is still "hard and fast."

"The deadline is not critical. The president can simply provide these countries with a deal if they refuse to make us one by the deadline," she said, adding that the president can make a reciprocal tariff rate.
