Let's talk about Netflix, but I don't want to talk about their shows and movies. I want to talk about the economic impact Netflix makes in this country. Over the past 10 years, Netflix has contributed $225 billion to the U.S. economy. They've brought productions to all 50 states and hired over 150,000 Americans as cast and crew. That's carpenters, electricians, and small businesses, all real American jobs. Netflix, investing in America.
President Trump addresses the nation in the first State of the Union of his second term. Our nation is back.
Bigger, better, richer, and stronger than ever before.
We look at what the president prioritized and the Democrats' dissent.
I'm Daily Wire Executive Editor John Bickley with Georgia Howe. It's Wednesday, February 25th. This is Morning Wire.
The Supreme Court's decision to strike down most of Trump's tariffs has prompted sweeping new orders from the president.
The president will have to use alternative authorities that are more well-established under the law to pursue its tariffs.
And America's largest bank confirms that it did indeed debank Trump in the weeks following January 6th, though the reason remains disputed.
Thanks for waking up with Morning Wire. Stay tuned. We have the news you need to know.
I'd like to introduce you to Gabby Stout. She's a high school junior in North Carolina who was inspired by Charlie Kirk and wanted to honor his legacy by painting a message on her school's spirit rock. But after school officials gave Gabby permission, they reversed themselves, censoring Gabby's message and publicly accusing her of vandalism. The accusation even aired in local news. Gabby was punished for standing up for the biblical values that Charlie spent his life defending. Now, our friends at Alliance Defending Freedom are representing Gabby in court to hold the school district accountable for violating her constitutional rights. We want to make sure Gabby knows she's not standing alone. With just a few minutes, you can go to joinadf.com slash wire or text wire to 83848 and send her a quick message of support.

President Trump delivered a wide-ranging State of the Union address last night, touting his wins over the past year and laying out his vision for the way forward.
Daily Wire senior editor Cabot Phillips is here to break it all down for us. Hey, Cabot, so a lot to get to here. There were some really moving guest appearances, a lot of policies touted, and of course, a lot of Democrat counter-programming all day. So where to start? Let's start with big picture. What was the major focus for Trump?
Well, President Trump said jokingly beforehand that viewers should be ready for a long night. And he was not kidding. By the time he left the podium, the runtime was about an hour and 45 minutes, making it the longest State of the Union address in history. So it was a long one. I'll do my best to condense it all. Trump, of course, hit on the economy and affordability, immigration and foreign policy. But the main theme of the night really was American greatness. President Trump repeatedly framed his presidency as bringing America back from the brink while leaning into the looming 250th anniversary celebration this coming July. And what became arguably the highlight of the night, Trump every few minutes would introduce a new individual candidate.
who represented American exceptionalism. There was a Coast Guard swimmer who rescued more than 100 little girls during flooding in Texas last year. Then a National Guardsman who survived being shot in the head in a terrorist attack. And in two just indescribably moving moments, he awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor to two men. First, a wounded hero who led the capture of Nicolas Maduro, and then a 100-year-old pilot who fought in World War II, Korea, and Vietnam.
