Hey, Ben, great to be here.

Well, we should expect a long State of the Union.

Last year, I believe he went 99 minutes.

And this year, he's already told us that it's going to be pretty long.

So I think we can expect it to be even longer than last year.

But what Caroline Leavitt and the White House are saying is that this is going to be a celebration of

of America, of American patriotism, and of all the things the president has done during the first year of his administration.

So last year when he spoke, he'd only been in office for a few months.

Now he has all of these different accomplishments that he can tout, and you know that he will, especially on the economy, on the border crisis, that he is...

handled effectively and on the deportations that he continues to do, on his foreign policy wins, making American cities safer, those things and much, much more.

He intends to have a number of guests, in my understanding.

Melania will also have a few guests.

All of these congressmen will have guests.

And what I have been told is that these guests are supposed to be American people who showcase the beauty of America, the beauty of our workers, the strength of the American person in general.

And all of this will contribute to a spectacle, which from the Trump administration's perspective will be one of the most watched speeches of the president's year, if not the next several years.

All eyes are on the president.

All the cable news channels will be tuned in, which is not something that they always do.

So the Trump administration is excited.

They know the eyes of the world are watching and they're planning to take full advantage of that.

Yeah, so Ben, we can exclusively report here at Daily Wire that President Trump will be bringing Erica Kirk, the widow of the late Charlie Kirk, as his guest to the State of the Union this year.
