LOS ANGELES (Reuters) -LA28 Chairman Casey Wasserman on Friday defended President Donald Trump's controversial decision to name himself head of a White House task force for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics, saying it reflected the federal government's commitment to the Games.

On Tuesday, the Trump administration announced the formation of a 2028 Olympics task force. But every piece of LA28 news raises more questions than it answers.

President Trump signed an executive order Tuesday to create a task force to oversee the LA Olympics, and he's putting himself in charge of it.
