White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt, during her first press briefing, faced a barrage of questions on the administration's freeze on federal aid programs.
The article from ABC News discusses the confusion and subsequent clarification regarding federal assistance for the East Palestine, Ohio, train derailment. Initially, there was uncertainty about whether former President Donald Trump had influenced the decision to provide federal aid after his visit to the site. The White House, through Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, clarified that the aid was already in motion before Trump's visit, emphasizing that the decision was based on the needs of the community rather than political influence. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) had been coordinating with state officials since the incident occurred, and the aid was part of a standard response to such disasters. The clarification aimed to dispel any notion that Trump's involvement had expedited or initiated the federal response.
