I'm Georgia Howe with Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief John Bickley. It's Friday, January 24th, and this is your Morning Wire Afternoon Update.
President Trump made a visit to the hurricane-ravaged areas of North Carolina today. He'll head to L.A. next to survey the damage from the recent fires there. Trump is joined by First Lady Melania Trump and a host of local officials in North Carolina. During remarks in Nashville, Trump floated the idea of overhauling FEMA, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, and possibly even abolishing it.
Trump took questions throughout the day and even laid down some conditions for releasing aid to California.
I want to see two things in Los Angeles, voter ID so that the people have a chance to vote. And I want to see the water be released and come down into Los Angeles and also go out to all the farmland that's barren and dry. They artificially stop the water from going onto the land. I just want voter ID as a start. And I want the water to be released.
And they're going to get a lot of help from the U.S.
As of last night, the security details of several people, including Mike Pompeo, Anthony Fauci, and John Bolton, were terminated. Trump was asked about terminating their taxpayer-funded security.
You can't have a security detail for the rest of your life because you work for government. No. No. You know, they all made a lot of money. They can hire their own security, too. All the people you're talking about, they can go out. I can give them some good numbers of very good security people. They can hire their own security. They all made a lot of money. Fauci made a lot of money.
