| 0:00.0 | It looks like Donald Trump may have violated another federal law during his meeting with Israel's prime minister, BB Netanyahu, who joined Donald Trump for a dinner at Marilago to discuss the ongoing conflict in Israel. |
| 0:15.4 | However, there was a moment during that conference in which the press was ushered out of the room. |
