President Donald Trump departed a restaurant in Washington D.C. between 1:45 AM and 2:15 AM UTC on September 10th, 2025, declining to answer questions regarding a court ruling on his ability to fire Lisa Cook and reports of Russian drones in Poland's airspace. Prime Minister Narendra Modi of India expressed confidence in ongoing trade negotiations with the U.S., stating that both nations are working to conclude discussions and that he looks forward to speaking with President Trump to secure a prosperous future. During his departure from the restaurant, President Trump was specifically asked by reporter Kellie Meyer about a court ruling preventing him from firing Lisa Cook and about the reports of Russian drones. He did not respond to either inquiry. This comes after previous reports from within the 1:00:23 AM to 1:30:23 AM UTC window where U.S. Representative Joe Wilson declared Russian drone strikes on Poland an "act of war." In parallel developments, Prime Minister Modi stated that India and the United States are "close friends and natural partners" and expressed his confidence that trade negotiations will unlock the "limitless potential" of their partnership. Modi also indicated he was looking forward to speaking with President Trump, with both leaders aiming to work together for a brighter and more prosperous future for their respective peoples. Previous reports from the earlier part of September 10th, 2025, detailed President Trump's dissatisfaction with a recent Israeli strike in Qatar, which he stated he was not notified about in advance. He also commented on an "Epstein birthday letter," denying its authenticity and style while dining at Joe's Seafood in Washington D.C., where Secret Service security measures were in place. Protesters were also reported demonstrating outside the restaurant during his earlier visit. Additionally, in the period between 12:30:35 AM and 12:45:23 AM UTC on September 10th, 2025, the lawyer for Senator Adam Schiff accused the head of the Federal Housing Finance Agency of weaponizing bureaucracy against Schiff, according to a letter to the Department of Justice.
