Here to break down what's happening in Syria and Israel is Daily Wire reporter Tim Peirce. Tim, so things moving very rapidly here. First, where is Syria headed? Yeah, that's almost an impossible question to answer. To get some help with that, we spoke with Hillsdale College history professor Dr. Paul Ray, who said to know where things are headed, it's important to know where this all began.
Morning Wire
CEO Shooter Celebrated & Hegseth Support Surges | 12.11.24
In other words, Syria isn't a united country by any means. It's made up of a bunch of different factions that mostly control their own slices of the country. And each faction typically has much more powerful state sponsors. The U.S. has favored the Kurds, for example. The ascendant power right now is a Turkish-backed group, Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, or HTS, which is on the U.S. terror list.
Morning Wire
CEO Shooter Celebrated & Hegseth Support Surges | 12.11.24
Right, a U.S.-designated terror group. About the U.S., how much has it been involved so far? Some. The U.S. still has about 900 troops in the country first stationed there in 2015 to fight the rise of the Islamic State. U.S. forces are focused on that mission again and have launched dozens of airstrikes against ISIS positions.
Morning Wire
CEO Shooter Celebrated & Hegseth Support Surges | 12.11.24
President Biden said over the weekend that preventing a resurgence of ISIS is one of the United States' top priorities. But Wray was skeptical that that intervention is necessary or useful as ISIS barely has a foothold in Syria anyway.
Morning Wire
CEO Shooter Celebrated & Hegseth Support Surges | 12.11.24
interests in Syria now? Yeah, it's a good question. I asked Ray how to approach that. Here's what he said.
Morning Wire
CEO Shooter Celebrated & Hegseth Support Surges | 12.11.24
But he also said that Syria is notoriously hard to control. So while the Turks are in the best place to exert influence, there's no guarantee that that relationship holds. As far as Israel is concerned, the Israelis have taken over the Golan Heights between Israel and Syria to keep the high ground from going to jihadists.
Morning Wire
CEO Shooter Celebrated & Hegseth Support Surges | 12.11.24
Its air force has struck hundreds of sites to keep military assets from falling into the hands of terrorists. It's worth mentioning that while Israel is trying to strike a delicate balance between all these pressures it is facing externally, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu went on trial this week on corruption charges.
Morning Wire
CEO Shooter Celebrated & Hegseth Support Surges | 12.11.24
Netanyahu has said the allegations are politically motivated and that forcing him to sit in court now of all times is dangerous to Israel's national security. It definitely seems like a lot to juggle right now. Tim, thanks for joining us. Thanks for having me.

are basically people who are at their peak of their lifetimes of earning and have a lot of money saved so you've got a market where even though prices are at an all-time high the amount of deals being done the amount of homes being bought are at 1990s levels even though we had 50 million fewer people in the 1990s that's the level of home buying and selling that's going on right now
Morning Wire
Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
Well, kind of that explains what's happening. But the reason it happened is inflation. We basically debased the currency. That means the price of things when measured in dollars goes up. And houses are one of the financial assets, because you use debt to buy a house, which makes it a financial asset. So house prices have gone up faster than the salaries of most people have gone up.
Morning Wire
Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
So houses get more and more unaffordable with time. And that's not a function of houses changing in any fundamental way. It's the value of the currency going down. And what this does is it benefits the people who were there at the start of the inflation, basically baby boomers, my generation. We own a lot of the financial assets.
Morning Wire
Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
We own the houses, we own the stocks, and we own the gold, and all of those things are going up dramatically. So we're getting richer. While the younger generations are being impoverished because they can't even afford the basics of adulthood right now.
Morning Wire
Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
You know, if you're a 30 year old and you want to start a family and buy a starter house, good luck unless you make a quarter million dollars a year, you know, and very few people at the age of 30 do that now. So we have basically screwed over younger generations while enriching the already rich. And that's what inflation does. And that's why it's so insidious.
Morning Wire
Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
Now, housing market is a perfect example of that. So where we go from here, though, I think is the really interesting part of the story, because people are starting to put their houses on the market now. but they're doing it at current prices, which means nobody can buy them. So inventory of homes for sale is starting to pile up in a lot of formerly hot markets like Texas and Florida.
Morning Wire
Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
You're seeing a lot of people try to sell their houses, but there are no buyers. And so what happens then normally is that the people who are trying to sell their houses, some of them pull the house off the market in disgust and others cut their prices.
Morning Wire
Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
And this sets off a panic in which people who really need to sell their houses basically have to sell them for whatever they can get for them and prices plunge. And so we're headed for a time like that. As inventory builds up dramatically in a lot of formerly hot markets and people get ready to start panicking.
Morning Wire
Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
Yeah, delisting rates are starting to climb. And that's a sign that we're topping now, that all the things that happen normally at a top are beginning to happen. More listings coming on the market, more delistings as people can't sell their houses. Oh, and there are also a lot of price cuts. You go to Zillow and you'll notice that a lot of houses have already been reduced.
Morning Wire
Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
Well, there's just been a lot of action in Florida and Texas and a few other states. Those are the places that people have been moving to and where a lot of houses have been built in response. You know, there's a tremendous number of new houses in the process of being built there right now.
Morning Wire
Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
So, in other words, the bubble markets, the really hot markets, are the ones that break first and where the real action is.
Morning Wire
Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
Yeah, it's slowing, but it hasn't stopped yet. People are still moving to states that they perceive as better run, and they're moving out of states that they think are badly run. That's continuing, but it's slowing down because nobody can afford to buy the houses in the hot markets that they're moving to now. For the past...
Morning Wire
Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
20 or 30 years, if you sell your house in California, you could pretty much go anywhere and buy a really nice house. But now, home prices are starting to equalize. They're going up. Even in, well, Nashville, for instance, is a super hot market in Tennessee. And a lot of other Tennessee cities are starting to boom. And that always leads to higher prices.
Morning Wire
Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
And in Florida and Texas, a lot of the formerly affordable neighborhoods aren't affordable anymore. So it's harder and harder to move to these places. Fewer and fewer people are doing it. And again, that's topping behavior. You know, once we reach the point where that rolls over and people actually start leaving the formerly hot states, that's when the real estate market really tanks.
Morning Wire
Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
Yeah, Austin has basically been the hottest city in the country for the past decade or so. But inevitably, the pendulum swings too far. And Austin is now unaffordably expensive. And the prices of houses are starting to go down there. I don't have the exact number, but I think it's something like 15% from the peak. Prices are down in Austin.
Morning Wire
Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
And there's an old saying that in a bull market, prices go up on the escalator. and in a bear market, they go down in an elevator. In other words, they go straight down when they start to fall. We're heading for that in a lot of hot real estate markets where prices just start to gap down. Austin is definitely one of those places.
Morning Wire
Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
Some places, for instance, Ohio, prices there just aren't that expensive. It's not going to plunge there, but in a lot of other places where Home prices are wildly unaffordable. They're going to tank. 30%, 40%, 50% declines are going to seem normal at some point in the next couple of years.
Morning Wire
Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
Well, as you mentioned, there are other costs of homeownership that have really spiked as part of the whole inflation thing. You know, the cost of homeowners insurance is spiking and home maintenance is much more expensive than it used to be. And taxes are going up. Property taxes are going up in line with home prices.
Morning Wire
Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
Oh, sure, Georgia. Good to meet you.
Morning Wire
Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
So owning a home is not only expensive because you have a high mortgage rate and the price was very high, but you've got insurance and taxes that are much higher than they used to be. So first of all, there's a lot of people who are priced out of buying a house. They can't do it. And then there are a lot of people who own houses but can't afford to keep those houses.

Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
So add it all up and there's just a massive amount of inventory coming our way.
Morning Wire
Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
Yeah, it's not the dominant factor in housing right now, but it's a very big one. And like you said, it's a very new one. Two other new ones are Airbnb properties where people built little empires of condos and rental houses. They're not making nearly as much money off of them as they thought they were going to. And a lot of them are going to have to be dumped onto the market.
Morning Wire
Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
And finally, baby boomers, you know, we're retiring and that three-story McMansion with an acre of land to take care of just isn't as easy on our hips and knees as it seemed at the time when we bought it. So boomers are going to have to start selling their big houses and downsizing.
Morning Wire
Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
So you take Wall Street, you take Airbnb and boomers, put them all together and you have this massive tidal wave of homes that are going to hit the market pretty soon. And it
Morning Wire
Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
Well, the places that didn't boom in the first place. I'm hearing a lot from a lot of people who are moving to like Missouri, for instance, where prices are still completely affordable. And Ohio, as I mentioned before, same thing. So they're insulated from the worst of the housing bust because they didn't boom in the first place.
Morning Wire
Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
And then other places that have some city-specific or state-specific thing going on, like for instance, there's a lot of technology companies that are moving to the Phoenix area. and that will help support real estate prices going forward. In other words, they won't crash the way some other places will crash. But just as a general principle,
Morning Wire
Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
Home prices will probably be going down irregularly in different places. But generally speaking, they're going to drop going forward, unless some really radical thing happens out there that's not on the horizon at all. So generally, if you've got a house now, your house will be less valuable in two or three years. And if it was wildly overpriced when you bought it, it's going to go down by a lot.
Morning Wire
Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
Yeah, normally the way a bubble works is that the price of something starts going up and it keeps on going up and eventually people get so excited by the rise in price that they experience FOMO, fear of missing out, and they start piling in and you get a lot of action as the price goes up.
Morning Wire
Weirdest Housing Bubble Ever: Will Your State Crash? | 3.9.25
But houses have become so unaffordable that the market is kind of frozen, even though prices are just insanely high. And a normal person, especially a normal young person, cannot afford to buy a house in the United States right now. And the median age of homebuyers now is in the 50s. It used to be 30 or so, 30, 35-year-olds. And now the only people who can afford to buy a house

Rethinking Gaza: Trump's Bold Middle East Strategy | 2.9.25
Yeah. So let's talk specifically about the control of Gaza, how to handle the aftermath of the war in Gaza and what to do with the people currently there. Trump really sent some shockwaves throughout the world on this with talk of the U.S. taking over and leading the rebuild. How did you interpret his proposals for Gaza?
Morning Wire
Rethinking Gaza: Trump's Bold Middle East Strategy | 2.9.25
involvement in the Middle East would look like, we speak to former U.S. Ambassador to Israel David Friedman. I'm Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief John Bickley with Georgia Howe. It's Sunday, February 9th, and this is a weekend edition of Morning Wire. Joining us now to discuss Trump's novel and controversial proposals about Gaza is former U.S. Ambassador to Israel David Friedman.
Morning Wire
Rethinking Gaza: Trump's Bold Middle East Strategy | 2.9.25
President Trump made a bold and surprising proposal this week that the U.S. take over Gaza during an official state visit from Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The statement drew immediate criticism from Democrats and sparked heated debate on Capitol Hill. For insight on the meeting between Trump and Netanyahu and what increased U.S.
Morning Wire
Rethinking Gaza: Trump's Bold Middle East Strategy | 2.9.25
Now, that would, of course, logistically mean a massive relocation, having to move these refugees, the Palestinians, into neighboring countries. How realistic is that prospect?
Morning Wire
Rethinking Gaza: Trump's Bold Middle East Strategy | 2.9.25
The big question then, of course, is how many would want to leave? You suggested that there's a large percentage of Palestinians that do, in fact, want to out of Gaza. I know there can't be an exact number here, but what would you put it at with your best estimate, the percentage of Palestinians who want to relocate?
Morning Wire
Rethinking Gaza: Trump's Bold Middle East Strategy | 2.9.25
Ambassador, first of all, thank you so much for coming on.
Morning Wire
Rethinking Gaza: Trump's Bold Middle East Strategy | 2.9.25
My pleasure. Benjamin Netanyahu is the first world leader to visit the White House in Trump's second term, which is significant in and of itself. And there was a lot of news that came out of Tuesday's meeting. From your perspective, what was the biggest issue that came out of this press conference?
Morning Wire
Rethinking Gaza: Trump's Bold Middle East Strategy | 2.9.25
Now, within the neighboring countries that would take them in, I assume there's a lot of concern about radicalization amongst the refugees. How legitimate and prominent a fear is that?
Morning Wire
Rethinking Gaza: Trump's Bold Middle East Strategy | 2.9.25
In terms of the U.S., quote unquote, taking control of Gaza, what exactly would that mean? Would this be a permanent situation or is this U.S. troops coming in to help clear it out and then U.S. contractors that come in to rebuild infrastructure? But then ultimately this stays under the Israeli government's control. What would that actually look like?
Morning Wire
Rethinking Gaza: Trump's Bold Middle East Strategy | 2.9.25
Well, as we've come to expect, certainly bold and hotly debated proposals from President Trump. We'll see how this all actually manifests over time. Ambassador, thank you so much for talking with us.

Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
And we already kind of knew the FBI knew it was real, but the sort of real-time details, like on the very same day they knew it was real, that's new. And it's extra insidious because... If you go back to that time, which is now five years ago, the FBI was running around that same week saying, well, we're looking into this being a Russian information dump.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
So on the same week, the same day, they knew it was real. They were counter-programming the narrative, and they did it in this way. You can look up the AP story, FBI reviewing if it's Russian disinformation, person familiar with matter tells AP. And that's how they do stuff. They always do it as person familiar, but it's just them.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
And I've been a journalist long enough to know how that game works. And that's how when you see person familiar, it's usually the person, but they don't want to say it's themselves. And they were actively casting doubt on it when they knew it was real. And it's inescapable now that it was clearly so they could help steer the election towards Joe Biden, which is actually what happened.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
Yeah, I mean, look, if you tried to defend the FBI with the DOJ, a lot of times they try to stay out of political matters right before an election. This would be your rationale for saying, well, they might not want to talk about this in public. But that's not actually what happened. We saw a proactive effort to actually discredit this report, correct?
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
No, I mean, if the FBI had just been like, look, you know, we're looking into this, but we're not going to comment, that would, I mean, we wouldn't be having this discussion right now. It was their active effort to not just discredit, but to discredit when they were actually the ones who were speaking the falsehoods. We were trying to tell the truth.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
They essentially ran an information operation on the American people. They spread us a bunch of BS because the truth was detrimental to Joe Biden. They didn't want it out.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
I'm just curious, a little behind-the-scenes look. What was it like at The Post during this time? This must have been a tumultuous, chaotic moment for you guys. What was it like?
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
Yeah, I mean, it was a crazy time. And it's almost like lore. It's like canon now. But, you know, this was a weird thing that Rudy Giuliani and Steve Bannon brought up in October before the election. And it's like, hey, guys, there's a laptop and the son left it at the repair shop. And, oh, the computer repairman's blind. And it's like it was just it was so crazy.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
So there was cause for skepticism there. And we spent a lot of time looking at it, and it was very wild stuff on there. But at the end of the day, we verified it. And the laptop is full of numbers. The laptop is full of billionaires, federal judges, everyone in the Biden orbit. And you can call these people up. I myself have many experiences. So there's an email from a very pathetic federal judge.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
emailing Hunter, and he's like, hey, hi. It was so great meeting you at that party. Any chance you could put in a word to your dad? Because he's obviously looking at the next rung up. And I called this judge, and federal judges' numbers are the hardest numbers to find. You can never, ever get those. They're very tricky. But I called his number.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
He answered and I was like, I'm going to read this email back to you now. And it was just like, I'm not talking to you. Goodbye. And I did this dozens of times to very important people and not a single person ever said I never sent that email. That's not real. That's not everyone's president. Biden's number was in there. It has since been changed. So it was extensively authenticated.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
In this episode, we sit down with a journalist who was at the post when the laptop story dropped and the cover-up and smear operation against the outlet began. I'm Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief John Bickley with Georgia Howe. It's Sunday, April 6th, and this is a weekend edition of Morning Wire.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
New details have emerged about one of the most egregious and high-profile censorship scandals in modern history, one that potentially altered the outcome of the 2020 election.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
And then we published it. And frankly, it was a huge story. But I think it was compounded by the fact that Twitter moved to censor it. And this turned it into not just Hunter Biden, but a broader story about free speech and the First Amendment.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
Yeah, it really was exemplary of this convergence of the federal government and big tech colluding to censor people on the right. It was remarkable. Everyone saw them crack down collectively on this right-leaning news outlet. Now, the Foreign Influence Task Force played a leading role in pressuring social media companies to censor speech. What actions did they take?
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
I mean, I don't know that we know the full extent of it, but they were working. I mean, Mark Zuckerberg has talked about how they would call up and say, you need to take this down. You can't run this. And you saw this institute of fact checkers brought in at Facebook. Famously, they were. lowering the visibility of the story until a fact check could be performed.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
Of course, we're a few years on that. I don't think we ever got a final fact check. So the federal government, in violation of the First Amendment, I think clearly pressured these companies to shut it down and to downplay the significance of the story and to not let it spread organically. And, you know, people always show you their true hands in October before a presidential election. Yeah.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
That's really when it's for all the marbles. And I think that the various organs of the government decided that keeping President Trump out of the White House for a second term was more important than these institutional concerns or these constitutional issues that we're raising here.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
I mean, the government should broadly not be in the business of policing speech or being the arbiters of truth about what American citizens can think or say.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
It's a broad, simple principle. It's not my principle. It's in the founding documents. It's been around for a long time. It's not new.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
Yeah. Now, we're really seeing the Trump administration tackle this very directly. And in Congress, Jim Jordan has really taken the lead on this issue. We've talked to him a lot about these issues because, of course, we've had our own experiences from Daily Wire's perspective with these entities under the guise of fact-checking really being censorship operations.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
Now, as far as the 51 intelligence officials and former intelligence officials, we've seen Trump take action. What do you think about the fallout as it relates to them?
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
I mean, it's all part of the deep state web of intelligence. You know, there's like 15 intelligence agencies. They all know each other. They all collude with each other. And what we learned later was that Anthony Blinken, who became later Secretary of State, he was instrumental in organizing this effort among those 51 officials. And some of them have sort of walked it back.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
Some of them have never apologized for it. Clapper, to this day, remains the most stubborn. I know that the Post has reached out to him several times, and he'll never back down from it. And I think it's just pride. And obviously, Trump revoked all their security clearances, which is good. I don't see any reason why they're not currently in government anymore. They should have that.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
And especially if they're going to use their security clearances and the good names that that gives them to do partisan politics.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
Yeah, I want to actually address the issue of good name in a second. First, the media fallout, the media response to the revelations over the last few years, the idea of slow walking, things that we actually knew at the time, so that maybe the impact is lessened over time. You can see this media trick playing out.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
Joining us now to discuss new revelations about the Hunter Biden cover-up scandal is John Levine, formerly with the New York Post and now with the Free Beacon. John, thank you so much for coming on.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
Do you feel like there's any sort of come to Jesus moments for any of these outlets in the legacy media?
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
Really, no. And the problem is all of these people would rather light themselves on fire than admit that the New York Post was right. And they'll burn their institutions to the ground rather than admit that they were wrong and that conservative media had a point about something.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
Whoa, whoa, can't say that because, you know, we're running around saying this is fake news, they're disinformation, cheap fakes. Remember cheap fakes?
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
Yeah. You can't suddenly be like, oh, actually, the Post was right, and we were the ones lying to you. I mean, come on. They can't. So what you've actually seen is, like, there's been no apology. No institution, no editor-in-chief has ever been like, look, we were wrong. The Post was right. We're sorry. Which is all really anyone has been asking for. So instead, you just see this gradual...
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
We're going to move away from the coverage we had. We're just going to not cover it as much. Maybe we'll like at a certain point you had these legal filings from the special prosecutor where they were like forced to cover it. But it's just when they can't discredit it, they just ignore it.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
When you break an incredible story at the Daily Wire, the highest honor you can get from these people is they ignore it. Because you know if you even put an Oxford comma out of place, they're going to say to you, oh, the Daily Wire is spreading fake news. Oxford commas don't go there. The whole story is fake. So if they ignore you totally, it means they saw it. They couldn't discredit it.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
So they just ignored it. And that is ultimately how they mislead their audience. It's not necessarily outright lies in the copy. It's sins of omission. Absolutely. Where they don't tell you everything, you know, the full story.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
Look, you were a reporter at the New York Post when that newspaper broke the Hunter Biden laptop story, a major moment. Your outlet was immediately throttled by social media, even kicked off of what was then Twitter, which was really remarkable. Now we're learning from the House Judiciary Committee that the day the New York Post actually first reported on that story,
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
Yeah, where you turn the camera, right? Exactly. Now, final question about trust. Trust in the media. Obviously, they're in a crisis, and this is what you see, a full-blown crisis mode panic amongst them. We also have trust in the FBI and intelligence officials in general at an all-time low. We now have Kash Patel coming in saying he wants to restore that trust. Do you think he can?
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
What kinds of steps does he have to take to do so?
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
Yeah, I mean, I think none of these things are irreversible. But I mean, the FBI piece, you've got to obviously fire the top leadership. It's not the rank and file people. They're very good. It's just the mid-management, mid-level people. And you see it all the time in the correspondence, in the Twitter files, you would see when they released all that information.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
These FBI people are these graduates from these woke colleges. They've all got pronouns in their email signatures. It's not Hoover's FBI anymore. They're not G. Gordon Liddy. These are essentially like woke bureaucrats, as you might find in any deep state institution in the federal government. So that... level of FBI needs to be doged away, if you will.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
Maybe you replace them with better people or maybe you don't. I mean, I don't know. I think we maybe should get a slimmed down FBI because obviously we've seen how they abuse their power and Democrats will be in charge at some point again. And I don't you know, I don't want a giant FBI in the hands of Democrats. And we have to think about this. But as for the media, it's never too late.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
But I don't know. Again, they'd rather lose the credibility. They'd rather speak to a smaller audience because when you look at what happened in the Washington Post, where they're trying to reverse course now, and they're trying to be like, guys, maybe we were a little bit overboard. And you're seeing hundreds of thousands of people cancel their subscriptions.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
It's a bit it's a phenomenon you call audience capture. A lot of podcasts have this, too, where when the audience becomes regularly used to a certain crack hit of the liberal talking points, it's very, very difficult to give them information that they're not going to want to hear. Yeah, for sure. It can be susceptible to this.
Morning Wire
Coverup: The FBI & Hunter Biden’s Laptop | 4.6.25
Right. Quite the conundrum. Many of these legacy outlets find themselves now in and it's of their own making. John, thanks so much for talking with us. Thank you. That was journalist John Labine. And this has been a weekend edition of Morning Wire.

Well, I will tell you, I just learned what you just said as well about the gag order. And if you believe, Catherine Herridge reported on X that an FBI employee did actually confirm the authenticity of the hard drive in a call that same day before the gag order was instituted.

There's been a lot made of Trump coming in supposedly with retribution on his mind. But this argument that we're maybe exposed to national security risks from foreign entities that might have their hands in the pockets of people that have a lot of power, I would think that argument would ultimately win the day. You've mentioned maybe that these preemptive pardons might just collapse legally.
Morning Wire
Schweizer: Truth Behind Biden’s Family Pardons | 1.26.25
Is there any other way to override or work around a presidential pardon of this nature?
Morning Wire
Schweizer: Truth Behind Biden’s Family Pardons | 1.26.25
Look, we witnessed something this week that Joe Biden repeatedly told the American people he would never do. He preemptively pardoned members of his own family, five of them. This comes after he did something else he swore he wouldn't do, pardon his own son, Hunter. So first, we hear the term unprecedented thrown around a lot, especially this last year. Is this indeed unprecedented?
Morning Wire
Schweizer: Truth Behind Biden’s Family Pardons | 1.26.25
You bring up Pam Bondi. Judging by the cabinet picks so far from Trump, what's the sense you get about the priority he's laid out of weeding out government corruption? Do you feel that they're fully invested in this project?
Morning Wire
Schweizer: Truth Behind Biden’s Family Pardons | 1.26.25
Yeah, I think you're right. What do you expect to see in the coming weeks and months from the White House and the Republican-led Congress related to Biden family corruption and other sorts of government-level corruption issues?
Morning Wire
Schweizer: Truth Behind Biden’s Family Pardons | 1.26.25
I think there's no arguing she's someone who comes prepared. Final question, what do you expect from the Biden family going forward? Will they withdraw from public life or try to stay politically relevant?
Morning Wire
Schweizer: Truth Behind Biden’s Family Pardons | 1.26.25
intriguing questions. And hopefully we do get some answers and Congress does pursue what I think the American people deserve to know has actually happened here.

You had assumed so. Now, we've covered the Hunter pardon at length here. In fact, we had you on to talk about it at one point. We now have five more members of the Biden family. And again, like you said, these are preemptive pardons, so different in kind. First, who exactly did he grant this blanket immunity to?

Executive Orders Halted: Are Judges Overstepping? | 3.23.25
That's an intriguing suggestion. Let's go case by case now. Trump's actions against USAID, we've had legal pushback to that. Where does that case stand? Do you think that the Trump administration is ultimately going to win in terms of their cost-cutting measures there?

Final question, broadening out again, do you believe most of these cases will end up escalating to the Supreme Court?

Now, we've seen a flood of judges' orders blocking the Trump administration's various attempts to enact his agenda on things like dismantling USAID, firing thousands of workers, banning trans-identifying people from the military. First, do these judges have the authority to impede the executive branch?

How do you envision her impacting labor relations in the current political climate?
Morning Wire
Analyzing Trump’s Cabinet with Senator Mullin | 2.23.25
Joining us to discuss the rapid fire series of confirmations and where the Trump cabinet and agenda stands now is Oklahoma Senator Mark Wayne Mullen. Senator, first of all, thank you so much for joining us. It's my honor. Thanks for having me on. So let's start with Kash Patel. You've been a strong advocate for Patel.
Morning Wire
Analyzing Trump’s Cabinet with Senator Mullin | 2.23.25
Well, that Big Ten approach clearly paid dividends in this last election for Trump, winning percentages of demographics. We haven't seen Republicans win in decades, as you said.
Morning Wire
Analyzing Trump’s Cabinet with Senator Mullin | 2.23.25
Now, you're a member of the Senate GOP deputy whip team, which allows you to influence the legislative agenda significantly. What are your top legislative priorities for the 119th Congress?
Morning Wire
Analyzing Trump’s Cabinet with Senator Mullin | 2.23.25
Why do you believe we need somebody that's been called a quote unquote disruptor like him to lead the FBI?
Morning Wire
Analyzing Trump’s Cabinet with Senator Mullin | 2.23.25
Final question. The big bugaboo for Democrats is Doge and its leader, Elon Musk. How do you and your Republican colleagues in the Senate feel about how it's going about its business?
Morning Wire
Analyzing Trump’s Cabinet with Senator Mullin | 2.23.25
Yeah, it does. And I think it's making sense to a lot of Americans as they watch this. The approval ratings show that Trump's approval is higher than it's ever been. Job approval better than ever in his first term. So things are going pretty well. He's got a lot of momentum right now.
Morning Wire
Analyzing Trump’s Cabinet with Senator Mullin | 2.23.25
Wow. Well, Senator, thank you so much for taking the time to talk to us. Thank you. Appreciate it. That was Senator Mark Wayne Mullen of Oklahoma. And this has been a weekend edition of Morning Wire.

The Diploma Divide & DOGE: Inside America’s Political Pulse | 3.2.25
Yeah, so a very dramatic difference there. So you're seeing that continued support that we saw from the election to this point. What are some of the things you found in terms of specific reasons that Trump's maintaining this support?
Morning Wire
The Diploma Divide & DOGE: Inside America’s Political Pulse | 3.2.25
In this episode, we speak to Signal pollster Brent Buchanan about how Americans are responding so far to the Trump presidency. I'm Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief John Bickley with Georgia Howe. It's Sunday, March 2nd, and this is a weekend edition of Morning Wire. Joining us now is founder of Signal Polling Group, Brent Buchanan. Brent, thank you so much for joining us.
Morning Wire
The Diploma Divide & DOGE: Inside America’s Political Pulse | 3.2.25
Now, you've talked about the record support for Trump, more support than he's ever had before. What about the other side of the aisle, though? We've seen reports of Democrats feeling rudderless, suffering record low support for them. What have you found?
Morning Wire
The Diploma Divide & DOGE: Inside America’s Political Pulse | 3.2.25
One of the only talking points Democrats seem to be coalescing around is an anti-billionaire message, particularly focusing on Musk as sort of the boogeyman. Do you think that will play for the party? Will that work?
Morning Wire
The Diploma Divide & DOGE: Inside America’s Political Pulse | 3.2.25
So first of all, you released your new national vote trend poll this month. What were some of the trends that stood out to you?
Morning Wire
The Diploma Divide & DOGE: Inside America’s Political Pulse | 3.2.25
There's some concern that a lot of the action that's taken so far by Trump is via executive order. It's unilateral. It comes only from the executive branch. Do you feel that we have a window that's closing for congressional action here? What's the sense of urgency for Republicans in the House and Senate to really get their agenda passed?
Morning Wire
The Diploma Divide & DOGE: Inside America’s Political Pulse | 3.2.25
From your polling, do you see any headwinds for the Trump administration? Any issues that they should be paying attention to that might be troubling in the future? Any issues gaining momentum that could work against them?
Morning Wire
The Diploma Divide & DOGE: Inside America’s Political Pulse | 3.2.25
I want to drill down on a couple of key themes for the administration and just see what you found in terms of the polling. How do people feel about the efforts to root out DEI and replace it with a fully merit-based system?
Morning Wire
The Diploma Divide & DOGE: Inside America’s Political Pulse | 3.2.25
And now what about the crackdown on illegal immigration from the Trump administration? That's been a major focus for them, and they've done a lot of messaging on that. How is the public responding to that so far?
Morning Wire
The Diploma Divide & DOGE: Inside America’s Political Pulse | 3.2.25
Obviously, a massive issue for people is the economy, their own personal finances. It's a pretty complicated question because there's lots of factors here, including tariffs and things like that. In general, what are you seeing in terms of public response to Trump's various economic policies?
Morning Wire
The Diploma Divide & DOGE: Inside America’s Political Pulse | 3.2.25
I know this is impossible to totally predict, but I'm curious about your feelings about this. How long will people give this new administration to bring down inflation, to start really impacting their bottom line? Do they have a year to work with, six months? When does the pressure start mounting to see substantive changes on this front?
Morning Wire
The Diploma Divide & DOGE: Inside America’s Political Pulse | 3.2.25
Is there any issue that's not being highlighted enough by media outlets or even by the administration that you find coming into your polling that needs to be addressed or discussed more?
Morning Wire
The Diploma Divide & DOGE: Inside America’s Political Pulse | 3.2.25
Yeah, independents always a factor to be considered. Brent, thank you so much for talking with us. Hey, great to be with y'all. That was Signal Group's Brent Buchanan, and this has been a weekend edition of Morning Wire.
Morning Wire
Interior Secretary Doug Burgum | 3.2.25
We have had a lot of cost-cutting measures being implemented and some requests from each of the departments to figure out ways that they can more efficiently handle their missions. How are you handling that with everyone under your charge?
Morning Wire
Interior Secretary Doug Burgum | 3.2.25
Well, that's a perfect button on this interview. So we'll leave it there. Secretary, thank you so much for taking the time to talk with us.
Morning Wire
Interior Secretary Doug Burgum | 3.2.25
Thank you so much. We can't thank our audience enough either. That was Doug Burgum, Secretary of the Interior, and this has been a weekend edition of Morning Wire.
Morning Wire
Interior Secretary Doug Burgum | 3.2.25
I want to talk to you about some of the priorities he laid out and that you've also laid out in terms of your department. But first, I do want to talk about the team. I want to talk about Elon Musk in particular. He came up a lot. Legacy Media has reported on this from a negative angle. I think a lot of Americans feel very differently about his involvement in the government so far.
Morning Wire
Interior Secretary Doug Burgum | 3.2.25
Trump said during the meeting, does anyone have a problem with Elon? If they do, we'll kick them out of here. How are the other secretaries receiving Mr. Musk and how do you feel about him?
Morning Wire
Interior Secretary Doug Burgum | 3.2.25
In this episode, we sit down with Secretary Burgum to hammer out his plan to use energy dominance to defeat China and help President Trump end wars. I'm Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief John Bickley with Georgia Howe. It's Sunday, March 2nd, and this is a weekend edition of Morning Wire. Joining us now is Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum, the former governor of North Dakota.
Morning Wire
Interior Secretary Doug Burgum | 3.2.25
Well, you started off talking about the energy in the room, and I do feel like this is an energetic administration so far. And it does feel like an experiment. Can the federal government be innovative? Again, can it do some things that are actually new? I wanted to talk to you specifically about your department and what new things you're going to do.
Morning Wire
Interior Secretary Doug Burgum | 3.2.25
For our listeners' sake, a Secretary of the Interior is responsible for managing nearly one-fifth of the lands and waters of the U.S. A lot of people don't understand all the roles that you do play. Can you talk to us about what your priorities are in your new role?
Morning Wire
Interior Secretary Doug Burgum | 3.2.25
First of all, thank you so much for joining us.
Morning Wire
Interior Secretary Doug Burgum | 3.2.25
The first meeting of cabinet secretaries was this week. We wanted to ask you about that first. You were there, obviously. What stood out to you about that meeting?
Morning Wire
Interior Secretary Doug Burgum | 3.2.25
I wanted to ask you specifically about nuclear. And we talked a lot about that over the decades, ideas about, well, you know, maybe ramping that up or a lot of times pulling back on it. We've seen Europe sort of struggling internally over this. What are your goals in terms of the nuclear potential the U.S. has?
Morning Wire
Interior Secretary Doug Burgum | 3.2.25
Speaking of short term, inflationary forces were clearly at work during the Biden administration. Energy has so much to do with inflationary prices. How fast do you see the new administration being able to turn those some of those things around? I know it's not an easy fix or a quick fix. Do you see inflationary forces easing soon and how so?
Morning Wire
Interior Secretary Doug Burgum | 3.2.25
Trump has launched a flood of initiatives. It's hard to keep up, actually. He has established a sovereign wealth fund and promised to make America beautiful again. You have a role in some of this. Can you speak to that, particularly make America beautiful again? What's that agenda? How does your department play into that and your actions?

Fools Gold: Newsom’s Bailouts, Beijing, and Broken California Dream | 3.16.25
Quite a mental image there. Well, Susan and Jed, congrats on your new book. And thank you so much for joining us.
Morning Wire
Fools Gold: Newsom’s Bailouts, Beijing, and Broken California Dream | 3.16.25
Thanks, John. That was Susan Crabtree and Jed McFatter discussing their new book, Fool's Gold. And this has been a weekend edition of Morning Wire.
Morning Wire
Fools Gold: Newsom’s Bailouts, Beijing, and Broken California Dream | 3.16.25
And so we have this pattern of Newsom letting these energy companies off the hook.
Morning Wire
Fools Gold: Newsom’s Bailouts, Beijing, and Broken California Dream | 3.16.25
In this episode, we sit down with the authors of the expose to discuss Newsom and the state of progressive California. I'm Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief John Bickley with Georgia Howe. It's Sunday, March 16th, and this is a weekend edition of Morning Wire. Joining us now are the authors of a new investigative book, Fool's Gold, Susan Crabtree and Jed McFatter.
Morning Wire
Fools Gold: Newsom’s Bailouts, Beijing, and Broken California Dream | 3.16.25
Incredible. Is this true for the energy company SoCal Edison as well?
Morning Wire
Fools Gold: Newsom’s Bailouts, Beijing, and Broken California Dream | 3.16.25
Now, on this topic of problematic political quid pro quos, Jed, you particularly dug into Newsom's connections to communist China that runs back to his time as mayor of San Francisco. That was back in 2004 to 2011. What did you find out about him during his time as mayor?
Morning Wire
Fools Gold: Newsom’s Bailouts, Beijing, and Broken California Dream | 3.16.25
The book breaks several new details about some key political figures in California. Susan and Jed, thank you so much for joining us.
Morning Wire
Fools Gold: Newsom’s Bailouts, Beijing, and Broken California Dream | 3.16.25
So this China SF supposed nonprofit that Newsom created is effectively a foreign national run organization that's buying property in America through the governor's office. What was the rationale from Newsom's perspective for even starting this joint venture with CCP connected individuals? What would be his argument for this?
Morning Wire
Fools Gold: Newsom’s Bailouts, Beijing, and Broken California Dream | 3.16.25
So Newsom is saying, look, I'm bringing in investment, I'm bringing in money for San Francisco that benefits ultimately California as a whole. What did you find in terms of any entanglements personally for him personally? with any of these entities that he's working with?
Morning Wire
Fools Gold: Newsom’s Bailouts, Beijing, and Broken California Dream | 3.16.25
Thanks for having me, John. There's a lot of pretty remarkable findings that you've detailed here that are causing a stir, but we wanted to zoom in here on perhaps the most significant figure right now in terms of the news cycle. That's Gavin Newsom. Let's start with the most immediate issue. Susan, you've highlighted what you've called the wildfire cash windfall.
Morning Wire
Fools Gold: Newsom’s Bailouts, Beijing, and Broken California Dream | 3.16.25
So this guy is charged for bribing associates of Newsom. Was there any backlash against Newsom for this?
Morning Wire
Fools Gold: Newsom’s Bailouts, Beijing, and Broken California Dream | 3.16.25
What have we seen since this?
Morning Wire
Fools Gold: Newsom’s Bailouts, Beijing, and Broken California Dream | 3.16.25
To me, that's pretty shocking. Yeah, it is. And it's highlighted even now in the aftermath of these fires that Susan's just talked about. We've seen the struggles of a lot of private citizens in California, but also entities that are trying to rebuild with all the red tape in California.
Morning Wire
Fools Gold: Newsom’s Bailouts, Beijing, and Broken California Dream | 3.16.25
Now, another explosive topic that you guys dug into is how Newsom's handling of the prison system came to a head during the COVID-19 lockdowns in the state. Can you explain what exactly happened there?
Morning Wire
Fools Gold: Newsom’s Bailouts, Beijing, and Broken California Dream | 3.16.25
This involves Newsom and the energy company Pacific Gas and Electric, PG&E. What have you uncovered on this?
Morning Wire
Fools Gold: Newsom’s Bailouts, Beijing, and Broken California Dream | 3.16.25
It's shocking that this is not a massive scandal. One more question about Newsom, his approach to transgender policies. He's now trying to reverse a bit in terms of at least males in female sports. He's launched a new podcast. He's trying to attack right from his far left positions. But what's the truth there? How has he actually handled the transgender issue as governor and lieutenant governor?
Morning Wire
Fools Gold: Newsom’s Bailouts, Beijing, and Broken California Dream | 3.16.25
Yeah, that interview on Newsom's new podcast really made a lot of news. Let's listen to that exchange between the governor and Charlie Kirk.
Morning Wire
Federal Communication Course Correction | 2.16.25
And what have you heard from the public so far? What's the public response been like?
Morning Wire
Federal Communication Course Correction | 2.16.25
In this episode, we sit down with the chairman to discuss the flurry of actions his agency is taking to carry out Trump's agenda. I'm Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief John Bickley with Georgia Howe. It's Sunday, February 16th, and this is a weekend edition of Morning Wire. Joining us to discuss the aggressive plans for the FCC under Trump is its new chairman, Brendan Carr.
Morning Wire
Federal Communication Course Correction | 2.16.25
Now Trump has settled several lawsuits against media companies, ABC and Meta, for example. Many on the left are warning that Trump is bullying media outlets and essentially forcing journalists to tone down their coverage of his administration through these actions. How do you see it?
Morning Wire
Federal Communication Course Correction | 2.16.25
I wanted to ask you about that Comcast investigation. What exactly are you looking at and where does that stand now?
Morning Wire
Federal Communication Course Correction | 2.16.25
Chairman, first of all, thank you so much for joining us.
Morning Wire
Federal Communication Course Correction | 2.16.25
And you can't pick a more ubiquitous company for sure. Let's turn to NPR and public funding. Can you explain why you've launched an investigation into NPR for their commercials?
Morning Wire
Federal Communication Course Correction | 2.16.25
Now, it's been a whirlwind for you guys. I know the FCC is involved in a lot and you're heading up a lot of initiatives in the upcoming weeks and months. And I wanted to ask you about many of them. So there's a lot of questions coming. First, during the presidential campaign, 60 Minutes famously aired an edited version of its interview with presidential candidate VP Kamala Harris.
Morning Wire
Federal Communication Course Correction | 2.16.25
So several investigations here. And this brings me to my final question. Do you see the FCC as having a more active or less active role in monitoring media companies under Trump?
Morning Wire
Federal Communication Course Correction | 2.16.25
Now they've turned over the full transcript and the unedited tapes. What is the FCC's review of that interview shown so far?
Morning Wire
Federal Communication Course Correction | 2.16.25
Now, I said that was my last question, but you brought up the censorship cartel that's been put in place through these various companies, big tech companies. The Daily Wire is particularly interested in this, obviously. Have you guys looked at the trend of jawboning and the government using fact checkers and news site ratings in coordination with big tech companies to censor people?
Morning Wire
Federal Communication Course Correction | 2.16.25
Are you looking specifically at that?
Morning Wire
Federal Communication Course Correction | 2.16.25
Well, music to many people's ears in the news world, for sure. Thank you so much for talking with us.
Morning Wire

Decoding Trump's Win: 2024 Election Analysis | 12.15.24
In this episode, we speak to Signal Polling Group founder Brent Buchanan about what took place this year and if it signifies a truly seismic shift in the political landscape. I'm Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief John Bickley with Georgia Howe. It's December 15th, and this is a Sunday edition of Morning Wire. Joining us now to examine how the political landscape has shifted in the U.S.
Morning Wire
Decoding Trump's Win: 2024 Election Analysis | 12.15.24
Now, pollsters like you often measure the most important issues to voters in the weeks and months leading up to the election. In this case, it was often inflation and immigration leading the pack. Did that end up lining up with exit polls?
Morning Wire
Decoding Trump's Win: 2024 Election Analysis | 12.15.24
Now, we at The Daily Wire have paid close attention to the transgender issue for various reasons, including the investigations we've done in the past and really directing more attention to this issue. How much did you think that issue played into the election results?
Morning Wire
Decoding Trump's Win: 2024 Election Analysis | 12.15.24
is Brent Buchanan, founder of Signal Polling Group. Brent, thanks for coming on. Good to talk to you again. It's great to be back. Look, we wanted to start by giving you some well-earned credit in the weeks leading up to the election. You said we would know the result Wednesday morning. That ended up being true.
Morning Wire
Decoding Trump's Win: 2024 Election Analysis | 12.15.24
As you've laid out, this was a sweeping shift rightward. Did Trump actually gain ground everywhere or did he lose ground in any particular demographic?
Morning Wire
Decoding Trump's Win: 2024 Election Analysis | 12.15.24
On election night, you were here at Daily Wire headquarters and ready to call the election for Trump at 10.02 p.m. No one's being that specific about it, but 10.02 p.m. What made you so sure Trump had won?
Morning Wire
Decoding Trump's Win: 2024 Election Analysis | 12.15.24
You bring up Indian Americans. What about Asian Americans? How did they vote in general this year?
Morning Wire
Decoding Trump's Win: 2024 Election Analysis | 12.15.24
And those people don't understand America. Now, there was a lot made by the legacy media of the gender divide going into the election. And from my understanding, it didn't quite play the role that we thought it was going to play. How did that end up shaking out?
Morning Wire
Decoding Trump's Win: 2024 Election Analysis | 12.15.24
So there's a lot of ways to sum up what just occurred this year, but part of it is a massive rebuke of the legacy media in revealing that they've been dethroned. Do you think it's fair to characterize the election that way?
Morning Wire
Decoding Trump's Win: 2024 Election Analysis | 12.15.24
What about the state of leftism post-election? Did we just witness the end of the progressive wing of the Democrat Party?
Morning Wire
Decoding Trump's Win: 2024 Election Analysis | 12.15.24
I'm not doing this anymore. Final question, pretty open. What is a takeaway from this year that you think is not being emphasized or stressed enough?
Morning Wire
Decoding Trump's Win: 2024 Election Analysis | 12.15.24
What were some of the swings you saw early in the night? What kind of movement did you see in which counties that was so significant early on?
Morning Wire

Tell us more about that. What did you learn over this last year?
Morning Wire
Why It’s Time to Defund UNRWA | 1.12.25
In this episode, we talk with the executive director of UN Watch, which has documented UNRWA's terrorist ties and says it's high time to shut the group down. I'm Daily Wire editor-in-chief John Bickley with Georgia Howe. It's Sunday, January 12th, and this is a weekend edition of Morning Wire.
Morning Wire
Why It’s Time to Defund UNRWA | 1.12.25
And you said the U.S. under the Biden administration directed a billion dollars to this organization.
Morning Wire
Why It’s Time to Defund UNRWA | 1.12.25
Has there been any accountability at all from the United Nations to keep this group in check over the years?
Morning Wire
Why It’s Time to Defund UNRWA | 1.12.25
Joining us now to discuss the controversy surrounding UNRWA is the executive director of UN Watch, Hillel Neuer. Hillel, thank you so much for coming on. So your organization has been watching very closely the actions of the United Nations, including UNRWA, which has come under a lot of scrutiny for good reason in the last year. First, what prompted your team to investigate UNRWA's radical ties?
Morning Wire
Why It’s Time to Defund UNRWA | 1.12.25
With the U.S. suspending funding and a few other countries like you've outlined joining that effort, is that enough to eliminate this group or is it just going to keep existing as long as they have a few of these states continuing to give money?
Morning Wire
Why It’s Time to Defund UNRWA | 1.12.25
What are the next steps in terms of continuing this momentum to expose the group and defund them?
Morning Wire
Why It’s Time to Defund UNRWA | 1.12.25
Well, you outlined a lot of disturbing things. I think the most disturbing, though, is how openly these members of UNRWA were supporting terrorism. And a bunch of countries from the West just seem to turn a blind eye to it. Hillel, thank you so much for talking with us. Thank you for having me. That was Hillel Neuer, executive director of UN Watch.

In this episode, we speak to Abrams about cop shows and their lasting popularity despite efforts to cancel them after the death of George Floyd. I'm Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief John Bickley with Georgia Howe. It's Saturday, March 8th, and this is a weekend edition of Morning Wire.

When you say mix of departments, what do you mean? Like different sizes of departments, different areas of the country?
Morning Wire
How Cop Shows Survived the Cancel Mob—and Won 2024 | 3.8.25
Well, obviously this show, as many other shows like it have proven, there's a very large dedicated audience for cop shows. Things changed though in 2020. I wanted you to unpack that for us. What happened back in 2020 after the death of George Floyd and the backlash against police shows like Live PD and Cops?
Morning Wire
How Cop Shows Survived the Cancel Mob—and Won 2024 | 3.8.25
aren't doing really good work. Sure. I'm curious about the experience of Live PD being canceled from your perspective. I don't know how much of this you can reveal, but can you give us a glimpse behind the scenes about what that was like, the atmosphere then, and what it's been like to try to come back from that and have another cop-focused show?
Morning Wire
How Cop Shows Survived the Cancel Mob—and Won 2024 | 3.8.25
My pleasure. Nice to be here. You've done so much in the legal and law enforcement space. For those in our audience who may not be as familiar with your background as we are, can you give us a brief overview of your professional career?
Morning Wire
How Cop Shows Survived the Cancel Mob—and Won 2024 | 3.8.25
That's such a good insight. I do think that's glossed over. We see the events after they've occurred, and it seems like they're inevitable, and everyone knew what was happening at the time. No, we don't know what's happening at the time.
Morning Wire
How Cop Shows Survived the Cancel Mob—and Won 2024 | 3.8.25
It's critical. Have you seen attitudes toward law enforcement changing in recent years?
Morning Wire
How Cop Shows Survived the Cancel Mob—and Won 2024 | 3.8.25
Got it. So pretty quickly. And we did see the fallout from the defund the police movement happen pretty fast. I think it took a lot of people by surprise how quickly we saw the negative results of that. So do you feel that the beginning of this project actually was aided by this maybe shift that began even back in 2022 about attitudes about police?
Morning Wire
How Cop Shows Survived the Cancel Mob—and Won 2024 | 3.8.25
What about the trends of rooting for the bad guy like we've seen with Luigi Mangione and his popularity among some groups? Have you seen shifting trends on that front?
Morning Wire
How Cop Shows Survived the Cancel Mob—and Won 2024 | 3.8.25
Well, no matter what, I mean, no matter who you might be rooting for, the sort of equation of these shows that has proven to be a big success is people seek out drama, tension... the uncertainty, the suspense, it's always there. No matter what your political angle is, that's the appeal. That's the, you know, the secret sauce here. And clearly you guys are doing this right with the show.
Morning Wire
How Cop Shows Survived the Cancel Mob—and Won 2024 | 3.8.25
Final question for you. What's next on the horizon for you? Obviously you have 90 episodes to produce of this show. Are there any other projects that you can speak about that you're working on?
Morning Wire
How Cop Shows Survived the Cancel Mob—and Won 2024 | 3.8.25

Tesla Attacks, DOGE, & Government Waste with Senator Marsha Blackburn | 3.29.25

Morning Wire
Tesla Attacks, DOGE, & Government Waste with Senator Marsha Blackburn | 3.29.25
Joining us now to discuss the targeting of Tesla and the broader mission of Doge is Senator Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee. Senator, first of all, thank you so much for coming on. Sure. I wanted to start by asking you about Tesla. Recently, there have been a lot of left-wing violence against those cars. It's been rather shocking. We've seen legacy media seem to almost promote this at times.
Morning Wire
Tesla Attacks, DOGE, & Government Waste with Senator Marsha Blackburn | 3.29.25
Well, I know we've been tracking polling very closely and the American people continue to support the mission of Doge. Whether or not the name Doge itself is popular, the mission is for sure. People want to see exactly what you just described. So you're going to take these steps. What other ways can the Senate help the Trump administration in this particular effort in eliminating waste?

Tesla Attacks, DOGE, & Government Waste with Senator Marsha Blackburn | 3.29.25
Yeah, very key there. Final question. We've seen a lot of pressure mounting on the Democratic leader in the Senate, Chuck Schumer. Do you foresee a real shakeup with the Democrats in the near future? Is an AOC going to be the voice of the Democrats on Capitol Hill? What do you see coming for Democrats in terms of their leadership amid these internal struggles?

The Rise, Impact, and Potenial Decline of Woke Ideology | 12.28.24
In this episode, we speak to the author of The Third Awokening on how this woke ideology intersects with religion, culture, and education, and how he says the U.S. can reduce its influence. I'm Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief John Bickley with Georgia Howe. It's December 28th, and this is a special edition of Morning Wire.
Morning Wire
The Rise, Impact, and Potenial Decline of Woke Ideology | 12.28.24
A couple of questions prompted by your answer. The Moynihan Report, for those who are not familiar with it, can you explain what that found and why it was buried?
Morning Wire
The Rise, Impact, and Potenial Decline of Woke Ideology | 12.28.24
And so the idea there is the pattern of censorship of ideas or information that counters a narrative must not be disclosed to the public.
Morning Wire
The Rise, Impact, and Potenial Decline of Woke Ideology | 12.28.24
Now, you've deliberately used a lot of religious language in your descriptions of woke in these movements. Why is that?
Morning Wire
The Rise, Impact, and Potenial Decline of Woke Ideology | 12.28.24
You use the term, quote, left liberals and distinguish that from radicals. What's the difference there and what's their role in promoting or not this wokeism?
Morning Wire
The Rise, Impact, and Potenial Decline of Woke Ideology | 12.28.24
Now, the reason all of this matters is that you argue that the woke movement has eroded freedom, truth and excellence in our cultures. Could you provide some examples of how this has manifested in society?
Morning Wire
The Rise, Impact, and Potenial Decline of Woke Ideology | 12.28.24
I think there's some people that perceive wokeism as being on the decline now. Others are not so confident that's actually happening. There are major generational differences in terms of views on all of these subjects. What is the trend that you're seeing in terms of the direction that American society is going with these ideas?
Morning Wire
The Rise, Impact, and Potenial Decline of Woke Ideology | 12.28.24
And I guess the hope is that there's another swing back with the even younger generation. But at what point do they actually start influencing culture? That's the question. Now, in terms of wiping out some of the more destructive elements of this, do you feel there's a hope for that? And how would we go about doing that?
Morning Wire
The Rise, Impact, and Potenial Decline of Woke Ideology | 12.28.24
The following is an interview conducted earlier this year. Joining us now to discuss so-called woke ideology and efforts to dismantle it is Eric Kaufman, author of the book, The Third Awakening. Eric, thank you so much for joining us. So first, the title of your book is interesting. It's obviously loaded and suggests a pattern going back decades. The Third Awakening, what does that mean? Right.
Morning Wire
The Rise, Impact, and Potenial Decline of Woke Ideology | 12.28.24
In your book, you outline a 12-point plan to roll back progressive extremism. What are some of the high points there?
Morning Wire

Trump Targets DEI & Gender Policies | 1.25.25
Yeah, let's unpack that. I know that gender ideology has been a key priority for your group. The Daily Wire has also been focused very heavily on this issue. What are we seeing coming from the Trump administration on gender-related policies?
Morning Wire
Trump Targets DEI & Gender Policies | 1.25.25
The Biden administration aggressively pushed progressive gender ideology. How much has that impacted schools, local organizations? How pervasive has this actually been?
Morning Wire
Trump Targets DEI & Gender Policies | 1.25.25
Do we expect to still see states like California undermine this effort, or are there federal levers that can be used to push back against these attempts to cram down this ideology?
Morning Wire
Trump Targets DEI & Gender Policies | 1.25.25
In this episode, we sit down with the president of Alliance Defending Freedom, a legal group that has been leading the charge on gender and DEI cases to discuss Trump's actions and cultural shifts on the issues. I'm Daily Wire editor-in-chief John Bickley with Georgia Howe. It's Saturday, January 25th, and this is a weekend edition of Morning Wire.
Morning Wire
Trump Targets DEI & Gender Policies | 1.25.25
From a legal perspective, does the federal government coming out so heavily against this ideology, does that further expose these sort of local entities, the school boards, et cetera, to legal ramifications for promoting something that could be seen as dangerous or unfair to women and girls?
Morning Wire
Trump Targets DEI & Gender Policies | 1.25.25
Now, Alliance Defending Freedom has been fighting on this front for a while now. Are you guys seeing progress, generally speaking, in terms of the legal arguments against gender ideology?
Morning Wire
Trump Targets DEI & Gender Policies | 1.25.25
Now, you mentioned at the top that DEI is a big part of what the Trump administration is trying to weed out. That's something the Biden administration heavily focused on in a way we've never seen before. What kinds of actions from Trump are we seeing there and what what do we expect in the coming years?
Morning Wire
Trump Targets DEI & Gender Policies | 1.25.25
Now, we at The Daily Wire are very interested in the intersection of politics and culture. We're very much believers in politics being downstream of culture and that we have to not only fight against forces cramming down dangerous policies, but we have to build and shape culture. How have cultural shifts influenced the issues of gender and DEI?
Morning Wire
Trump Targets DEI & Gender Policies | 1.25.25
Joining us now to discuss Trump's executive action on gender and DEI is Alliance Defending Freedom president and CEO Kristen Wagoner. First of all, thank you so much for coming on. Thanks for having me. I wanted to start big picture. We just witnessed a historic, on so many levels, inauguration. The biggest political comeback in American history is now complete.
Morning Wire
Trump Targets DEI & Gender Policies | 1.25.25
Final question. We've seen a flurry of activity from the Trump administration and his opening salvo on reshaping the federal government. What else are you seeing in terms of this new administration's priorities?
Morning Wire
Trump Targets DEI & Gender Policies | 1.25.25
Well, there's massive anticipation heading into this week and now very high hopes for what's ahead. Kristen, thank you so much for talking with us.

Global Coverup? Fresh Claims on Covid Origins | 3.22.25
And to be clear, you're saying January 2020, there's evidence that they knew all the way back then that this most likely came from the Wuhan lab.
Morning Wire
Global Coverup? Fresh Claims on Covid Origins | 3.22.25
In this episode, we speak with journalist and author Michael Schellenberger about the new evidence of a COVID cover-up and the media backlash for its role in pushing false narratives. I'm Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief John Bickley with Georgia Howe. It's Saturday, March 22nd, and this is a weekend edition of Morning Wire.
Morning Wire
Global Coverup? Fresh Claims on Covid Origins | 3.22.25
Right, so credible sources of their own government agencies that are then suppressed by those governments in order to pursue this other narrative that protects not just China, but entities like the NIH here in the U.S., I wanted to highlight that the journal Nature was the one behind the Proximal Origin paper.
Morning Wire
Global Coverup? Fresh Claims on Covid Origins | 3.22.25
They've just released another study last month claiming there's, quote, mounting evidence that points to raccoon dogs as the most likely source of COVID-19. So they're doubling down on this. Is it too strong to say that this is a disgraced journal at this point that's lost credibility?
Morning Wire
Global Coverup? Fresh Claims on Covid Origins | 3.22.25
Yeah, and like you've highlighted here, increasing evidence and consensus that the origin was in fact what everyone assumed that was using common sense at the beginning, the Wuhan lab, which makes the most sense. I want to talk about the media response to this. So we talked about nature a little bit, but the New York Times has gotten a lot of blowback in the last few days.
Morning Wire
Global Coverup? Fresh Claims on Covid Origins | 3.22.25
They just published an opinion piece saying we were misled about the origin of the virus. And a lot of people are slamming the New York Times saying you had a great deal of responsibility in how you covered this. How have you seen the media responding to new evidence and trying to redirect or correct course in the intervening months?
Morning Wire
Global Coverup? Fresh Claims on Covid Origins | 3.22.25
Joining us now to discuss the new claims about government cover-ups related to the origins of the COVID virus is independent journalist and author Michael Schellenberger. Hey, Michael, thank you so much for joining us.
Morning Wire
Global Coverup? Fresh Claims on Covid Origins | 3.22.25
Now, you mentioned Fauci. Trump has just made the statements declaring that Biden's preemptive pardons for Anthony Fauci and others are invalid. His argument is that all of these pardons were signed by an auto pin, and thus Biden did not actively sign them and allegedly was not even fully aware what was being enacted in his name.
Morning Wire
Global Coverup? Fresh Claims on Covid Origins | 3.22.25
Trump's going to try to make that case we'll see if that holds up but related to this topic a lot of people are looking for some sort of accountability particularly from Fauci what do you see coming on that front what investigations are ongoing with congressional members where can we look for potential accountability?
Morning Wire
Global Coverup? Fresh Claims on Covid Origins | 3.22.25
So let's start with what we just found out from the UK related to the origins of the coronavirus. What did we just learn and how does this change the way we think about how the UK in particular handled this situation?
Morning Wire
Global Coverup? Fresh Claims on Covid Origins | 3.22.25
Well, we've seen so far this administration seems like it's pretty committed to transparency. Let's hope that holds up and we get some more transparency on this issue. Thank you so much for talking with us.

Yeah, I'm sure. What has been the tone from the incoming administration, the Trump administration?
Morning Wire

So Trump's National Security Advisor, Mike Waltz, came to talk to you in person within just a couple of days, but Biden's advisor delayed 16 months. I can't imagine the frustration there. Can you tell us about your husband's situation? How long has he been there? What are the conditions? How's he doing?

Yeah, I want to talk about that more, the messaging on this. And X plays a major role in this. We have the guy leading this charge, leading Doge, unofficially or officially, however you want to see it, Elon Musk, has his own platform that is constantly pumping out information on this thing the American people now are seeing.
Morning Wire
The DOGE Data: Musk Slashes Billions in Government Waste | 3.15.25
A lot of things exposed in the federal government that's never been exposed before. It wouldn't have been able to be exposed because of the gatekeepers in the legacy media. Tell us about the impact of social media, also just the marketing sort of wing of the Trump administration. They're very effective. How has that changed the conversation?
Morning Wire

In this episode, we sit down with the Government Accountability Institute's Eric Eggers to discuss the accomplishments of Doge, as well as the headwinds it faces in the coming months.

Morning Wire
The DOGE Data: Musk Slashes Billions in Government Waste | 3.15.25
Now, the Internal Revenue Service is another major focus of the administration. What are we seeing in terms of estimates on reduction of staff there?
Morning Wire
The DOGE Data: Musk Slashes Billions in Government Waste | 3.15.25
Can't believe it. You know, you mentioned some of the ways this is being reported on and pushed back against by the Democrats, the talking points we're hearing. We have a legal effort that's a major part of that. Where do you see the vulnerabilities for Doge and where do you see the clear wins in the future for them?
Morning Wire
The DOGE Data: Musk Slashes Billions in Government Waste | 3.15.25
There's a lot of pressure on Doge, a lot of backlash from the left, some maybe not so organic backlash. But what's the truth? How much has Doge and Musk actually accomplished so far?
Morning Wire
The DOGE Data: Musk Slashes Billions in Government Waste | 3.15.25
Yeah. And so far they've held together better than I think a lot of people feared in some of these early challenges that they faced with their very thin majority in the House. We'll see how the Senate holds up. But so far we've seen all of Trump's nominees get through pretty easily. And I think that's surprised a lot of people.
Morning Wire
The DOGE Data: Musk Slashes Billions in Government Waste | 3.15.25
Yeah, that's a great point. Final question, in terms of the messaging that Democrats are trying to coalesce around that we're at the whim of a billionaire oligarchy, Bernie Sanders is using that talking point as are many other Democrats and legacy outlets. Do you see that being effective in winning a significant number of Americans over to their side against the sort of Trump-Musk initiatives?
Morning Wire
The DOGE Data: Musk Slashes Billions in Government Waste | 3.15.25
And meanwhile, for the vast majority of Americans who work in the private sector, seeing cost cutting measures and downsizing of staff like this, it's nothing new. In fact, many are left asking, why hasn't the government been doing this all along?

Trump’s Seismic Economic Shift | 2.15.25
There's a lot you said there that I want to unpack. First, why are you optimistic about the housing situation in particular?
Morning Wire
Trump’s Seismic Economic Shift | 2.15.25
You mentioned the Fed there. We had several interest rate cuts last year. Jerome Powell testified earlier this week that he doesn't know when we may have another one. Where do you fall on cutting rates? Do we need another cut?
Morning Wire
Trump’s Seismic Economic Shift | 2.15.25
In this episode, we talk with financial expert Eric Schiffer about the impact Trump's policies will have on inflation, trade, and American industry. I'm Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief John Bickley with Georgia Howe. It's Saturday, February 15th, and this is a weekend edition of Morning Wire. The latest inflation report for January came in higher than expected, up 0.5% with housing up 4%.
Morning Wire
Trump’s Seismic Economic Shift | 2.15.25
You said something interesting there. It's the sort of the symbolic nature of some of the signals, the message being sent from the White House and how cutting costs on a federal level could impact the economy. Can you unpack that a little bit more for us?
Morning Wire
Trump’s Seismic Economic Shift | 2.15.25
President Trump has rolled into office announcing seismic changes to U.S. trade, energy and economic policies, including reciprocal tariffs, slashing regulations and downsizing the federal government. The changes come as the final inflation report from the last month of the Biden administration showed an uptick in inflation, including 4 percent increases in housing costs.
Morning Wire
Trump’s Seismic Economic Shift | 2.15.25
And President Trump has really gone all in on tariffs. You mentioned tariffs at the top. We have the tariffs on China, tariffs on steel and aluminum, threats of tariffs against Mexico and Canada. There's some concern that this may cause inflation to worsen. You mentioned that maybe there's some short-term effects on this. What's the truth? Are these tariffs beneficial in the end?
Morning Wire
Trump’s Seismic Economic Shift | 2.15.25
Will there be pain? How do you see it playing out?
Morning Wire
Trump’s Seismic Economic Shift | 2.15.25
Trump has also promised growth in the energy sector. That's a huge component to, well, everything, but definitely includes inflation. Obviously, all this stuff takes time. You can't just start drilling instantly. It takes years and years. But do you see any short-term effects of this growth-minded nature of the administration? Will that have a more immediate impact on the cost of some things?
Morning Wire
Trump’s Seismic Economic Shift | 2.15.25
President Trump is calling it Biden's inflation. Joining us to discuss is Eric Schiffer, CEO of the Los Angeles-based private equity firm, the Patriarch Organization. Eric, first, thank you so much for joining us. It is my pleasure. So look, we've got this recent inflation report that's come out showing inflation ticking up last month. What numbers jump out to you?
Morning Wire
Trump’s Seismic Economic Shift | 2.15.25
Now, tax cuts are a major part of Trump's platform. He wants to extend the expiring tax cuts. What could those do for the economy? What happens if these cuts don't get extended?
Morning Wire
Trump’s Seismic Economic Shift | 2.15.25
Final question and pretty broad one. What do you expect to see over the course of this year in terms of the economy? By the end of the year, where do you see this all going?
Morning Wire
Trump’s Seismic Economic Shift | 2.15.25
Well, you mentioned the term X factor, and there are certainly many of them here, including just Trump himself. Things are changing fast, and it'll be fascinating to see how it all impacts the economy. Eric, thank you so much for joining us.

Morning Wire
Trump vs. Inflation: Can He Fix the US Economy? | 12.14.24
Quick follow-up to that. You mentioned that the number of native-born Americans with jobs has actually shrunk in the last four years. We heard some talking points during the campaign about that, immigrants being the only ones that actually benefited from the increase of jobs over the Biden administration. Is that correct?
Morning Wire
Trump vs. Inflation: Can He Fix the US Economy? | 12.14.24
Now, as we said, inflation has been the leading economic headwind over the last few years. It still remains elevated. What is the latest on inflation?

You're projecting that in 2025, things could get actually worse. Can you unpack that more for us?
Morning Wire
Trump vs. Inflation: Can He Fix the US Economy? | 12.14.24
What other actions can Trump take to combat this inflationary problem? So obviously, energy is a priority for him. That's the first thing that he always mentions when he's talking about solutions. What else can he do?
Morning Wire
Trump vs. Inflation: Can He Fix the US Economy? | 12.14.24
Are there particular industries where deregulation will have an immediate impact?
Morning Wire
Trump vs. Inflation: Can He Fix the US Economy? | 12.14.24
Trump is also going to impose some tariffs, or at least is threatening to do that for overseas production. So do those things go hand in hand, deregulation plus the negative incentive of tariffs to bring more production into the U.S. ?
Morning Wire
Trump vs. Inflation: Can He Fix the US Economy? | 12.14.24
Now, the Kamala Harris campaign repeatedly said that Trump is going to impose a tax on imported goods, characterizing the tariffs as a direct tax on the American people. Was that a fair assessment of how the tariffs actually play out in real life?
Morning Wire
Trump vs. Inflation: Can He Fix the US Economy? | 12.14.24
Joining us now to discuss the state of the economy and how it's shaping up for 2025 is Heritage Research Fellow E.J. Antoni. E.J., first of all, thank you so much for coming on. My pleasure. Thank you for having me. We recently had an interesting statement from President Biden at a speech at the Brookings Institution. He says that he's handed Trump the strongest economy ever. Here's the moment.
Morning Wire
Trump vs. Inflation: Can He Fix the US Economy? | 12.14.24
A question that's related to this. We just had a social media post from Trump in which he announced a new possible policy. I want to read this post to you and get your reaction.

Wow. Now, Gary, you obviously know exactly what makes for successful storytelling. Why did this particular project, Brothers After War, appeal to you so much?
Morning Wire
‘Brothers After War’: An Interview With Gary Sinise & Jake Rademacher | 3.1.25
In this episode, we sit down with Sinise and Rademacher to discuss the making of their new film and how it folds into their larger mission of supporting and honoring America's bravest. I'm Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief John Bickley with Georgia Howe. It's Saturday, March 1st, and this is a weekend edition of Morning Wire.
Morning Wire
‘Brothers After War’: An Interview With Gary Sinise & Jake Rademacher | 3.1.25
Joining us now to discuss their new film, Brothers After War, is executive producer Gary Sinise and director Jake Rademacher. First of all, gentlemen, thank you so much for joining us. Thank you for having us. Yeah, thank you, John. Good to be with you.
Morning Wire
‘Brothers After War’: An Interview With Gary Sinise & Jake Rademacher | 3.1.25
It really struck me as you're seeing a complete three-dimensional person as you get to know each of the heroes that you highlight in this. These are real people that struggle with real things. The sense that we get two decades of insight into some of these guys. It really fleshes it out for you. It's very real. And I wanted to talk about that.
Morning Wire
‘Brothers After War’: An Interview With Gary Sinise & Jake Rademacher | 3.1.25
The workshops that you've done appear to have helped shape this film. There were questions and answers after the premiere this week that even got very, very emotional, pretty raw at times. And you could feel the workshop mode taking over in some ways. Jake, I know that you run these. How did that help?
Morning Wire
‘Brothers After War’: An Interview With Gary Sinise & Jake Rademacher | 3.1.25
How did working with a lot of soldiers coming home, becoming civilians, working through that process, how did it help shape this film?
Morning Wire
‘Brothers After War’: An Interview With Gary Sinise & Jake Rademacher | 3.1.25
You know, I wanted to say Georgia and I had a truly remarkable time at the premiere here in Nashville earlier this week, and we came away with a lot of questions we wanted to ask you. First, Jake, this is a sequel in effect for those who maybe haven't had the opportunity to see the film that preceded this one, Brothers at War.
Morning Wire
‘Brothers After War’: An Interview With Gary Sinise & Jake Rademacher | 3.1.25
Literally, yeah.
Morning Wire
‘Brothers After War’: An Interview With Gary Sinise & Jake Rademacher | 3.1.25
You've been documenting this group of men, your brothers and more, for decades now. How did these documentaries come about?
Morning Wire
‘Brothers After War’: An Interview With Gary Sinise & Jake Rademacher | 3.1.25
You know, I wanted to stress that suicide does come up in this film. And Jake, you cited some statistics in the Q&A that are just utterly shocking. Anybody that's looked at it, it's actually hard to believe. But this is not a sob story for all of these, again, heroes.
Morning Wire
‘Brothers After War’: An Interview With Gary Sinise & Jake Rademacher | 3.1.25
There's a lot of victory, a lot of what we're actually witnessing in the film is all of them figuring out ways to deal with, to address these very traumatic things that they've gone through and make the transition and move on from them. And Gary, your foundation is driven by a lot of hope for our veterans, that it's not a tragedy we're dealing with.
Morning Wire
‘Brothers After War’: An Interview With Gary Sinise & Jake Rademacher | 3.1.25
These are a bunch of people that are the bravest, the most important members of society. They need some support, but they can and do amazing things when they come back. Can you speak to that some?

A truly powerful story. Like you said, tragic, but important to hear that testimony. Mary Margaret, thank you so much for coming on and great luck with this book.
Morning Wire
Escaping the Gender Ideology Cult: True Detrans Stories | 2.1.25
That was Mary Margaret Olihan, author of Detrans, True Stories of Escaping the Gender Ideology Cult. And this has been an extra edition of Morning Wire.
Morning Wire
Escaping the Gender Ideology Cult: True Detrans Stories | 2.1.25
Right. And I want to get to those lawsuits soon. But what age did these transitions begin?
Morning Wire
Escaping the Gender Ideology Cult: True Detrans Stories | 2.1.25
So sometimes surgeries, and I assume that all of them underwent hormone treatments as well, correct?
Morning Wire
Escaping the Gender Ideology Cult: True Detrans Stories | 2.1.25
Right. More studies are coming out on that with some very troubling findings. Did any of these detransitioners discuss with you what really pushed them over the edge in terms of deciding to transition in the first place?
Morning Wire
Escaping the Gender Ideology Cult: True Detrans Stories | 2.1.25
In light of this watershed moment, we decided to re-release an interview we conducted this summer with Mary Margaret Olihan, who's now The Daily Wire's White House correspondent, about her book on the transgender medical industry and the growing number of people who now regret their attempted transition. I'm Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief John Bickley with Georgia Howe.
Morning Wire
Escaping the Gender Ideology Cult: True Detrans Stories | 2.1.25
Right. And so they saw people promoting this or people in groups that they felt like maybe they could connect with that also had similar feelings. And then at some point they sought medical help. How did the medical process go? How thorough was the assessment? Was it a fast track or slow walk? What was the process like for them?
Morning Wire
Escaping the Gender Ideology Cult: True Detrans Stories | 2.1.25
Did you see patterns in terms of how the parents or the family handled this transition process? Were they involved? Were they worried? Was there pushback?
Morning Wire
Escaping the Gender Ideology Cult: True Detrans Stories | 2.1.25
It's Saturday, February 1st, and this is a special edition of Morning Wire. Joining us now to discuss her new book, D-Trans, True Stories of Escaping the Gender Ideology Cult, is Mary Margaret Olihan, who's now the Daily Wire's White House correspondent. Mary Margaret, thanks for coming on.
Morning Wire
Escaping the Gender Ideology Cult: True Detrans Stories | 2.1.25
Now, one of the entities that's driving this movement, particularly in the medical industry, is WPATH. And a lot of these doctors will cite WPATH, what they call standards of care, as sort of their cover for the action that they take, their playbook for how they carry out these procedures. Did you look into WPATH?
Morning Wire
Escaping the Gender Ideology Cult: True Detrans Stories | 2.1.25
Yeah, we've heard rumblings of lawsuits being filed or in the works, and I wouldn't be surprised if we see some directed their way. So we have this process that you described where these kids that are lonely, often feeling isolated, seek out a sense of identity, and then they seek medical help.
Morning Wire
Escaping the Gender Ideology Cult: True Detrans Stories | 2.1.25
But now you've talked to some that have come through the other side of this and feel a lot of regret and a desire to detransition. What was that process like for them, trying to turn around, turn back to who they were biologically?
Morning Wire
Escaping the Gender Ideology Cult: True Detrans Stories | 2.1.25
So look, your book, Detrans, comes out later this month. It tells the true stories of people who have detransitioned. This is a very controversial topic, though it's becoming something that people are paying increasing attention to. First, tell us something about the people you talk to for this book.
Morning Wire
Escaping the Gender Ideology Cult: True Detrans Stories | 2.1.25
Did you see any pattern in terms of timeline? Was there a consistent pattern or is this as individual as a person is? I mean, is this months, years later that regret usually starts to kick in?
Morning Wire
Escaping the Gender Ideology Cult: True Detrans Stories | 2.1.25
Speaking of families, we talked about how much they supported or not the transition process. What about the detransition process? Did you see any patterns there with the families?
Morning Wire
Escaping the Gender Ideology Cult: True Detrans Stories | 2.1.25
And what about the opposite? Was there any resentment for the parents that were overly supportive of the transition process?
Morning Wire
Escaping the Gender Ideology Cult: True Detrans Stories | 2.1.25
You know, we've all seen the social media posts of parents announcing that their two-year-old is the opposite gender and things like that. It's hard not to conclude that it's more about the parents than the children. So the last chapter of your book is about the tragic story of Abby Martinez and her daughter. What happened there and why did you include that?

So we just had this 5-4 ruling from the Supreme Court against the Trump administration's request to block this lower court order. Can you explain what this ruling means?
Morning Wire
Education Overhaul & RFK Jr.’s Bold Moves | 3.7.25
Justice Alito warned in his dissent that this ruling could give, quote, a single district court judge who likely lacks jurisdiction the unchecked power to compel the government of the U.S. to pay out billions. Are there larger precedent issues at play here, or is this, do you think, an overstatement?

Big changes are coming if you're a Timu or Xi'an shopper. Americans could see higher prices on their orders as the Trump administration moves to curb tariff-free imports on orders less than $800. The policy change is expected to hit Xi'an harder than Timu, since Timu has already shifted more of its shipping to bulk orders and U.S. warehouses.
Morning Wire
USAID Cuts & Superbowl Preview | Afternoon Update | 2.7.25
Analysts estimate the volume of these low-cost shipments could drop by 60%. The crackdown on tariff-free imports could boost U.S. manufacturing and retail jobs by making domestic products more competitive and encouraging companies to produce more goods locally.

All right, so let's walk through what's exactly in this. This is from the summary.

Morning Wire
Trump’s Tariff Fallout & Military Standards Equalization | 4.4.25
So defying other states' rulings. Now, I also want to highlight Sections 8 and 9. They define deadnaming and misgendering as discriminatory acts in the Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act and prohibit these discriminatory acts in places of public accommodation. What does that mean exactly?
Morning Wire
Trump’s Tariff Fallout & Military Standards Equalization | 4.4.25
Final question, is there anything Republicans can do to stop this from going through?
