  "account": "US President Donald Trump said his suggestion to make Dana White, head of Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), the new White House press secretary was \"just a joke\". White will meet Trump at the White House on Monday for other reasons. Trump also commented on mass deportations, saying they were \"too harsh\" and that he believes an agreement can be reached with Democrats. The Democrats, who will control both houses of Congress from January, plan to launch investigations into Trump's administration, including into the role of billionaire Elon Musk and Trump's new chief of staff, Stephen Miller. Trump has ordered the Justice Department to investigate the Democrats for alleged threats.",
