Donald Trump and Nicki Minaj celebrated the launch of a new Treasury program providing $1,000 savings deposits for children before attending a high-profile film premiere in Washington. The event at the Kennedy Center featured the documentary "Melania: Twenty Days to History" and was attended by Mike Johnson, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and multiple Cabinet members. Nicki Minaj pledged financial support for the investment initiative while facing scrutiny over whether her public alliance with Donald Trump is intended to secure pardons for her relatives.Donald Trump used the premiere of the $75 million film to highlight the behind-the-scenes influence of Melania Trump on administration decisions regarding Vladimir Putin and international policy. The documentary, directed by Brett Ratner and distributed by Amazon MGM Studios, faces low box office projections despite the presence of prominent figures like Mehmet Oz and Howard Lutnick. Donald Trump also addressed his personal health during the appearance, explaining that hand bruising visible to attendees was the result of taking high aspirin dosages for heart health.Nicki Minaj confirmed she is currently finalizing her USA citizenship paperwork and utilized the summit to praise Scott Bessent while criticizing Gavin Newsom. Critics have linked her sudden political shift to the legal situations of Kenneth Petty and Jelani Maraj, though she maintains her support is rooted in community and faith. The documentary launch was further complicated by the news that South African distributor Filmfinity canceled the release of the film following increased political tensions between the USA and South Africa.
