President Donald Trump is heading to New Jersey tonight, but first he was attending to his presidential duties inside the Oval Office Friday afternoon.

Trump unveiled plans for a new fighter jet, denied claims billionaire Elon Musk was briefed on a secret military plan and called the release of the JFK files "nothing earth shattering" during remarks at the White House alongside Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.

Once Trump wraps for the afternoon, he will be on the move, heading to the Garden State to partake in what could be his first round, or two, of golf at the Trump National Golf Club. From there, he is expected to take in a bit of college wrestling in Pennsylvania. Here's what to know about Trump's upcoming schedule, and when and where he'll be near you.
