President Donald Trump addressed reporters at the White House on Friday in an impromptu press conference that covered border enforcement, the Supreme Court’s latest ruling on judicial authority, and the recent U.S. airstrikes against Iran.
The briefing also included an unexpected moment when a cameraman in the room shouted “Trump 2028,” drawing a cheerful reaction from the president.
The event began with President Trump taking questions on a range of topics, including immigration enforcement and recent developments along the southern border.

One reporter noted, “Illegal crossings at the border are zero now,” prompting the president to quickly repeat the statement for emphasis.
“Zero! Does everyone hear that? Zero,” Trump said, drawing audible applause and cheers from inside the room.
According to Special Assistant to the President and Communications Advisor Margo Martin, a cameraman shouted “Trump 2028,” triggering more smiles.
“Who’s that guy?! I like him! I like him,” Trump said, looking around the room.

Responding to a question about remarks made by Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei—who claimed “total victory” in the 12-day conflict—President Trump dismissed the assertion.
“I am putting out a little statement, I am going to respond to the Ayatollah’s statement yesterday that we won the war,” Trump said.
“I said, ‘Look, you’re a man of great faith, a man who is highly respected in his country, you have to tell the truth. You got beat to hell.’”
The president added that both Iran and Israel took losses during the conflict, stating, “And Israel is beat up, too. They were both beat up. It was a great time to end it.”

Later in the briefing, President Trump addressed the Supreme Court’s ruling issued Friday morning, which struck down the widespread use of nationwide injunctions by federal district courts.
The decision is expected to limit lower courts from blocking federal policies across the country.
“This morning, the Supreme Court has delivered a monumental victory for the Constitution, the separation of powers, and the rule of law in striking down the excessive use of nationwide injunctions to interfere with the normal functioning of the executive branch,” Trump said.
“The Supreme Court has stopped the presidency itself. That’s what they’ve done, and really, it’s been an amazing period of time this last hour,” he continued.
“There are people elated all over the country, such happiness and spirit.”
Trump also criticized the recent trend of judges issuing nationwide injunctions based on individual cases, saying, “I was elected on a historic mandate, but in recent months, we’ve seen a handful of radical left judges effectively try to overrule the rightful powers of the President.”

Attorney General Pam Bondi appeared alongside the president and provided additional context regarding the scope of the ruling.
“Thirty-five of the forty nationwide injunctions issued in recent years came from just five liberal districts in the country,” Bondi said, reinforcing concerns about judicial overreach.
