Overview

• Donald Trump publicly criticized Fox News correspondent Jacqui Heinrich on Truth Social, calling her 'absolutely terrible' and suggesting she should work for CNN.
• Heinrich had recently reported on Tesla's concerns over Trump's tariff policies and questioned the use of the White House as a backdrop for showcasing a Tesla vehicle.
• Trump's comments came shortly after Heinrich questioned White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt about the administration's handling of a high-profile deportation case.
• Leavitt defended the deportation policies, framing them as morally justified and supported by families of victims of violent crimes.
• The criticism highlights ongoing tensions between Trump and Fox News, a network that has historically supported him but has faced increasing scrutiny from him in recent years.
