Donald Trump has arranged for Chinese President Xi Jinping to visit the National Archives in Washington, D.C., where the Declaration of Independence, Constitution, and Bill of Rights are preserved. This tour will conclude Trump's final engagement with Xi during their summit. The White House's decision to limit media access to the state dinner was criticized by Trump on his social media platform, where he also accused CNN and MSNBC of ignoring his formal welcome of Xi.
Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu faced opposition from New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani, who publicized a video of himself hosting Palestinian families. Activists, including Democratic socialist congressional candidate Darializa Avila Chevalier, were among those arrested during a protest against Netanyahu's participation in the summit.
Additionally, the Trump administration utilized federal funds to broadcast a pro-Trump advertisement on Fox News.
