Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro was appointed Wednesday by President Donald Trump to serve on a little-known panel alongside other governors to strengthen partnerships between states and the federal government.

The last 10 minutes of the nearly 45-minute meeting devolved into a tense back and forth between President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance and President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

The Pennsylvania governor issued a statement Friday afternoon after the unprecedented Oval Office exchange between Trump and the Ukrainian president.

Shapiro said the attack on Volodymyr Zelenskyy served to "undermine the safety and security of America and our national security interests."

The absence of the state’s top law-enforcement officer arguably gave Josh Shapiro the chance to play good cop and bad cop with the White House.

Governor Josh Shapiro announced that $2.1 billion in federal funds have been unfrozen, as President Donald Trump’s executive actions are playing out in the courts.

Shapiro said he “will continue to press” the case during a press conference announcing the release of this funding. The administration is facing another lawsuit filed by 23 states and Washington, D.C., over other pauses of federal funds.
