Bloomberg’s Skylar Woodhouse: “President-Elect Trump — there’s reports that Elon Musk is having a lot of sway in terms of his decisions, in terms of who President-elect Trump is, you know, having come into his administration, sitting in on meetings with — with foreign leaders, and Elon Musk has said, you know, there’s parts that he wants to sort of reshape maybe the government. Is President Biden concerned at all over Elon Musk’s influence over President-elect Trump and potentially what that could look like for our country?”
KJP: “That is — that is for the President-Elect to make — to decide on. I’m not, not going to comment on personnel decision — or personnel choices that the transition announces or being reported or what’s happening in that world. It is not for us to speak to — uh — the President’s going to focus on the next 70 days and what’s at hand — uh — focus on the American people, focus on making sure that we have a process — a transition process that’s orderly — um — and that’s what we are — wanna make sure that we keep our promise — right — that democratic — those dem — honoring our democratic principles. What the President-Elect does and speaks — who he speaks to and how he wants to think and envision his administration, that’s up to him.”
Time magazine’s Brian Bennett: “President Trump has promised to launch the largest deportation in American history when he becomes president. Are there steps that President Biden is taking in the next 70 days to try to protect certain populations in the United States from deportation? Does he want to extend parole or take other steps that would protect people from that deportation?”
KJP: “Um — so — don’t have any — um — any new policies to — to announce at this time — uh — and I want to be careful — like — I — I don’t want to get into hypotheticals on what the next administration’s going to do or not do. That’s not something that I’m gonna try to address from here. Uh — it is not something that we will be addressing from here. Uh — what I can speak to is what the President has done over the past almost four years in dealing with a broken system — a broken immigration system that has been broken for decades now — uh — and trying to — um — work with Congress on doing that — uh — and, as you know, there was a — a — uh — bipartisan deal that came about from the Senate that Republicans and Democrats, obviously bipartisan as I just stated, worked on and you know, we, of course, would love to see that go through. We would love to see that happen. Uh — the President was ready to go and they Republicans were told not to move forward because it would help Joe Biden, which is really unfortunate because it would have dealt with this broken system that we have, and it will have dealt with the challenges that the border patrol agents were facing at the border. That is something that would be great to get done — uh — but — um — I — I — I’m beyond that, I don’t have anything to share with you on that.”
