Speaking to Sky News, he stated, "They have the best electric vehicles out there... the company's reputation is just being destroyed by Elon Musk."

• The Trump administration acknowledged last night that many individuals sent to perform hard labor in a Salvadoran prison under the Alien Enemies Act have no criminal record.

The only basis for the deportation of many of the individuals was a single rose tattoo.

• The Trump administration is ramping up its criticism of Judge Boasberg in a new filing, urging him to halt his order requiring more details on flights to El Salvador. They even suggest they may invoke the state secrets privilege to withhold the information.
