We're swinging, we're swinging hard. We're gonna clean it up and get it focused on the right things. And again, the president's what, nine, 10 peace deals in. We put that international stamp on a number of them. We're sharing the burden, pushing these countries in the right direction, but it's all under his leadership.
That was U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz discussing President Trump's unapologetically America-first approach to international diplomacy and what he argues should be the true purpose of the U.N., promoting peace.
Under the president's direction, Waltz is taking a new, aggressive approach to the international body, demanding a renewed focus on peace and the rejection of what he calls the nonsense that's made the UN increasingly irrelevant over the years. He's also demanding that the organization stop looking the other way when it comes to the persecution of Christians.
In this episode, Daily Wire editor-in-chief Brent Schur sits down with Ambassador Waltz to discuss his mission at the U.N. and President Trump's vision for a more effective, focused foreign policy that protects America's interests. I'm Daily Wire executive editor John Bickley with Georgia Howe. This is a weekend edition of Morning Wire.

Ambassador Michael Waltz, so great having you with us. We've spoken to you when you were in Congress, a top surrogate for Donald Trump, the White House National Security Advisor, and now you're in a new role, United States Ambassador to the United Nations. I want to go back to your first week on the job. Trump speaks at the UN, the escalator breaks with him on it, his microphone malfunctions, the teleprompter breaks. What was it like entering this new role in this new building to all of that? Yeah, I was literally standing right behind him when the escalator came to a halt and he paused for a moment.
