Trump 2nd term updates: Trump says USAID is run by 'radical lunatics'

Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. David W. Allvin wrote a statement Monday regarding curricula on the Tuskegee Airmen and women pilots, saying no such material has been removed from basic military training.

"Allow me to clearly dispel a rumor -- while we are currently reviewing all training courses to ensure compliance with the Executive Orders, no curriculum or content highlighting the honor and valor of the Tuskegee Airmen or Women Air Force Service Pilots has been removed from Basic Military Training," Allvin wrote. "The historic legacy and decorated valor these Airmen embodied during World War II and beyond will continue to guide our newest recruits and all who serve in our ranks."

The statement comes after an Air Force spokesperson confirmed to the Associated Press that training courses with such videos were removed last week after Trump's executive order to eliminate DEI initiatives in the federal government. The Air Force later clarified to the AP that the courses were edited but that the Tuskegee Airmen and WASP content would still be shown.

Allvin also said in his own statement on Monday that the Air Force is "faithfully executing" all of Trump's executive orders, including on DEI.

Vice President JD Vance's first official trip since taking office was to Damascus, Virginia, to survey damage from last year's devastating Hurricane Helene.

In remarks alongside Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin, Vance said he was heartened by the stories he's heard on the ground of "good people helping their neighbors rebuild."

Without providing evidence, he also criticized the federal response to the flooding, claiming federal agencies had acted as "a barrier, as opposed to a facilitator" of getting resources into the communities who needed it.

This comes on President Donald Trump's assessment of storm damage in North Carolina last Friday. During that visit, he floated getting rid of FEMA. He also signed two executive orders Friday that focused on emergency response, one of which creates a task force to conduct a "a full-scale review" of FEMA.

Vance was asked about what changes he would like to see made to FEMA, including possibly eliminating the agency. Vance did not mention the agency being terminated, which Trump could not do unilaterally, but once again reinforced the idea that bureaucrats were getting in the way of rebuilding.

President Donald Trump spoke with India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday, continuing his calls with foreign leaders since taking office. Trump's first call was to Saudi Arabia's crown prince Mohammed bin Salman.

Trump and Modi discussed "expanding and deepening cooperation" between their countries along with "a range of regional issues, including security in the Indo-Pacific, the Middle East, and Europe," the White House said.

"The President emphasized the importance of India increasing its procurement of American-made security equipment and moving toward a fair bilateral trading relationship," according to a readout of the call.

The two leaders also talked about plans for Modi to visit the White House. The prime minister visited the White House as well as former President Joe Biden's home in Wilmington during the previous administration and made visits to the White House during the first Trump administration.

Mexico President Claudia Sheinbaum said her country has received 4,094 migrants, most of whom are Mexican nationals, deported from the U.S. since Jan. 20.

"Mexico has a very important history of repatriation with the United States. First with the Trump administration and then with the Biden administration. There are coordination mechanisms," Sheinbaum said. "We ask for respect for human rights."

Sheinbaum said four planes with deportees arrived this past weekend. But she noted it has happened in the past and that there has not been "a sustained increase" of deportations.
