3.174 - 8.798 Georgia Howe

Donald Trump is getting positive marks on his cabinet picks and for his handling of the presidential transition.

0

9.478 - 15.161 John Bickley

And Special Counsel Jack Smith has dropped the January 6th prosecutions against the former president.

0

15.802 - 20.625 Unknown

We don't take legal action against sitting, and in this case, incoming presidents of the United States.

0

21.365 - 40.162 Georgia Howe

I'm Georgia Howe with Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief John Bickley. It's Tuesday, November 26th, and this is Morning Wire. The U.S. is in the midst of a massive deportation backlog, meaning many illegal immigrants who shouldn't be here still are.

0

40.862 - 44.565 Cabot Phillips

Thousands of empty ice beds sitting there right now already paid for by the taxpayer.

Chapter 2: What recent legal developments involve Donald Trump?

44.866 - 54.834 John Bickley

They'd rather release them because they know they're not detention, they won't be removed. And does Trump's victory signal the end of DEI and training, hiring, and funding by the federal government?

0

55.534 - 61.019 Unknown

I will eliminate all diversity, equity, and inclusion programs, of course, the entire federal government.

0

62.042 - 66.031 Georgia Howe

Thanks for waking up with Morning Wire. Stay tuned. We have the news you need to know.

99.605 - 105.107 John Bickley

With Inauguration Day fast approaching, Trump will enter office with a clear mandate from the American people.

Chapter 3: How are Americans reacting to Trump's cabinet picks?

105.767 - 119.012 Georgia Howe

Here with the latest on the transition and how voters are responding so far is Daily Wire senior editor Cabot Phillips. So Cabot, some clear signs of widespread support for a second Trump administration. What are we seeing?

0

119.554 - 140.325 Cabot Phillips

Yeah, Trump's second term is starting with something that he was lacking back in 2016 when he lost the popular vote, a clear and decisive mandate from the American people. Now, obviously, the electoral results are the strongest evidence of that mandate. Winning all the battlegrounds and popular vote will do that. But new polling shows just how much goodwill Trump has with voters right now.

0

140.905 - 159.782 Cabot Phillips

According to the latest numbers from CBS, a stunning 59% of Americans approve of his handling of the transition so far. compared to just 41% who disapprove. And it's interesting, one of the Democrats' core messages this year was that Trump would take away freedoms and serve as a fascist. But voters clearly were not buying it.

0

160.203 - 165.809 Cabot Phillips

Just 37% in this poll say they believe Trump will threaten Americans' rights and freedoms.

0

166.414 - 170.196 Georgia Howe

Well, and some of the most shocking numbers actually came from the younger voters.

Chapter 4: What are the latest poll results about Trump's approval ratings?

170.476 - 187.643 Cabot Phillips

Right. All of the exit polling we had from Election Day showed Trump winning a higher share of young folks than any Republican in decades. And the latest polling reinforces that. 57% of voters under 30 say they are happy or satisfied with Trump winning. 56% say they're optimistic about what he'll do.

0

201.953 - 201.353 Brandon

65%!

0

202.314 - 224.431 Cabot Phillips

That is a higher approval rating than any other age group. We just simply have not seen that sort of broad support among young voters since Barack Obama took office back in 2008. And one more interesting note, just 16% of young Americans say they are, quote, motivated to oppose Trump's efforts as president. So... Americans, including those under 30, seemingly giving Trump a fresh start.

0

225.131 - 232.074 Georgia Howe

Now, it's not really just Trump himself, though. A lot of this widespread support is for his cabinet appointments and specific policy proposals, right?

0

232.474 - 250.361 Cabot Phillips

Exactly. Americans are offering broad support for Trump's cabinet as well so far. Leading the way is Secretary of State nominee Marco Rubio. 44% say that's a good pick compared to just 25% who say it's bad. Same goes for Tulsi Gabbard and Pete Hegseth, who just 27 and 28 percent respectively oppose.

Chapter 5: What is Trump's plan regarding DEI programs?

251.101 - 273.579 Cabot Phillips

And even RFK Jr., arguably the most controversial of Trump's cabinet appointments, is viewed positively. And it's worth noting on RFK. The age range that supports him most is, again, those young voters. But most notable is the overwhelming support of Trump's border policies. Get this, 57% of Americans say they support his plan to, quote, find and deport all immigrants who are in the U.S.

0

273.719 - 281.305 Cabot Phillips

illegally. That is just a staggering shift from a decade ago when polls showed support for mass deportations hovering in the 25 to 30% range.

0

283.126 - 287.592 Georgia Howe

We're also seeing the Dems back off of some of these lawsuits. Tell us about that.

0

288.032 - 307.889 Cabot Phillips

Yeah, on Monday, special counsel Jack Smith officially announced that he is filing to dismiss a pair of federal prosecutions against Donald Trump. He cited the DOJ's policy against prosecuting a sitting president. Remember, those cases centered on allegations that Trump sought to undermine the 2020 election and that he illegally held on to classified documents after leaving the White House.

0

308.409 - 325.092 Cabot Phillips

Those cases are no more. According to a Trump spokesman, the move, quote, ends the unconstitutional federal cases against President Trump and is a major victory for the rule of law. The American people and President Trump want an immediate end to the political weaponization of our justice system, and we look forward to uniting our country.

Chapter 6: How has the deportation backlog been addressed?

325.132 - 328.693 Cabot Phillips

So yet another victory for soon-to-be President Donald Trump.

0

329.153 - 333.015 Georgia Howe

So a fresh start for Trump on multiple levels. Cabot, thanks for reporting.

0

333.215 - 333.555 Cabot Phillips

Anytime.

Chapter 7: What impact do local and national policies have on the migrant crisis?

366.061 - 371.543 Georgia Howe

More than a million illegal aliens under formal orders to be deported are still at large in the United States.

0

372.486 - 384.655 John Bickley

Daily Wire reporter Tim Pearce is here to talk about how local and national policies have contributed to the migrant crisis. Hey, Tim, so what do we know about this substantial group of migrants that should be out of the country but aren't?

0

385.135 - 405.549 Stephen Miller

Yeah, there are about 1.4 million migrants in the U.S. today that have received formal deportation orders, which means they've been ordered by a court to leave the country. Stephen Camerota, the director of research for the Center of Immigration Studies, talked to Fox News recently, and he said that this backlog means that the Biden administration has been very unserious about border issues.

0

406.149 - 420.818 Stephen Miller

The Biden approach has been to greatly expand legal pathways for entries, such as parole. But then when immigrants' temporary access is up, they're protected and provided for through a network of local and state governments and NGOs. Sanctuary city laws are a good example of this.

0

421.238 - 438.444 Stephen Miller

According to Camerata, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE, should still have a good idea of where these aliens with deportation orders are. After all, they have to provide a legitimate address and contact information if they want to get work permits, driver's licenses, most documents one needs in order to live and work in the U.S.

439.005 - 445.267 Stephen Miller

The fact that so many aliens have yet to be deported indicates a lack of willingness to deport on behalf of the federal government.

445.694 - 450.157 John Bickley

Now, how does an illegal immigrant in the US support himself or herself?

450.737 - 462.565 Stephen Miller

Well, take New York City, for example. It has laws that guarantee a so-called right to shelter. Practically, that means taxpayers are on the hook to provide shelter for the city's homeless, which recently has included tens of thousands of immigrants.

463.025 - 482.557 Stephen Miller

The city has rented out thousands of hotel rooms, taken over schools, gymnasiums, places of worship, sports fields, anywhere it can find space to shelter immigrants. It's also paid for one-way tickets for any immigrant in the city to relocate elsewhere. As long as they promise not to come back. That program, which the city calls reticketing, has been the subject of some controversy.
