Top takeaways from Trump's contentious, rainy 'Meet the Press' interview
(USA Today) WASHINGTON − President Donald Trump abruptly ended a contentious ‒ and rainy ‒ interview with NBC's "Meet the Press" after he was challenged for saying without evidence that California's elections are rigged.
Trump also defended a controversial $1.8 billion "anti-weaponization" fund despite his administration publicly abandoning the plan, and warned the United States will remove Iran's highly enriched uranium "militarily very harshly" if its leaders don't agree to dispose of the material in the ongoing war.

Trump cut the interview short after the topic turned to California's slow counting of ballots in last week's primary elections, which has delayed final results in the state's governor race and Los Angeles mayoral election, among other contests.
Trump said the "elections are rigged" by Democrats and accused California election officials of being "crooked," echoing the same baseless allegations he's made about his 2020 presidential election loss.
