President Trump [Oval Office]: What it [Musk email request] is, is, do people exist? We have this massive government, with millions of people, and nobody knows who is working for the government, and who's not. So what they're doing is they're sending out a letter to everybody, and they're saying, 'What were the things you did last week?', I guess they ask for five. And if people are working, it's easy….if they're not, it could be there is no such person, it could be that the person is no longer working, they're no longer living at that address, they maybe moved. Maybe they moved to a different country. Or maybe the person doesn't exist. We then take this person off the payroll, and we save a lot of money by doing that…we have to find out if people are getting paid and they're not working. Let's say they have another job, and then they write in false statements. That's a big problem if they write in false statements.
President Trump: It wasn't easy [to get water flowing into California]. We had to be very unfriendly to get into those areas. We opened it up. I essentially attacked California. Can you believe it? I attacked California.
President Trump: We're going to be selling a Gold Card. You have a Green Card, this is a Gold Card. We're going to be putting a price on that card of about five million dollars, and that's going to give you Green Card privileges, plus. It's going to be a route to citizenship, and wealthy people will be coming into our country by buying this card. They'll be wealthy. And they'll be successful. And they'll be spending a lot of money, and paying a lot of taxes, and employing a lot of people.
President Trump: The people [applying for the Trump Gold Card] will be vetted very carefully.

President Trump: Space Force is turning out to be invaluable. Amazing.
