Trump calls off planned 'surge' of federal forces in San Francisco after talking to Jensen Huang and Marc Benioff

In a Truth Social post on Thursday, Trump said that he was preparing to "surge" federal forces into the city on Saturday, but decided to hold off after "friends of mine who live in the area" called him on Wednesday night. He specifically named Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff as among the "great people" who called him and urged him to call off the deployment. Trump said that he was giving San Francisco Mayor Daniel Lurie a "chance to turn it around." "They want to give it a 'shot,' Trump said of the two CEOs. "Therefore, we will not surge San Francisco on Saturday."
