23.881 - 43.567 John Bickley

I'm Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief John Bickley with Georgia Howe. It's Wednesday, March 5th, and this is Morning Wire. Trump invited several special guests last night, including those victimized by past policies, as well as those who prevailed over hardship.

In 2018, DJ was diagnosed with brain cancer. The doctors gave him five months at most to live. That was more than six years ago.

56.997 - 65.008 Georgia Howe

In his first joint address to Congress since retaking the White House, President Trump touted his record while laying out his plans on immigration, foreign policy, and trade.

Chapter 3: What were the key highlights of Trump's address?

115.08 - 130.676 John Bickley

Here with some of the key highlights is Daily Wire senior editor Cabot Phillips. Hey, Cabot, so all eyes on Washington last night as Trump gave his joint address. And the evening was many things. It was raucous, funny, at times intense. What did we hear from the president last night?

0

131.157 - 150.815 Cabot Phillips

Well, we heard a lot. At one hour and 40 minutes, it was the longest address to Congress in American history. Now, much of that was due to interruptions from Democrats. We'll get to that in a bit, but a lot to cover. The theme of Trump's address was, quote, renewal of the American dream. The president took the podium and kicked things off with a simple message.

0

151.375 - 155.639 Donald Trump

To my fellow citizens, America is back.

158.666 - 175.88 Cabot Phillips

Now, typically a president's first address to Congress is largely focused on what they're going to do in the future. But Trump started things off by listing off what his administration has already accomplished in the six weeks since he took office. As we expected, he started by touting the record decrease in illegal border crossings last month.

0

176.48 - 200.42 Donald Trump

And we quickly achieved the lowest numbers of illegal border crossings ever recorded. Thank you. The media and our friends in the Democrat Party kept saying we needed new legislation. We must have legislation to secure the border. But it turned out that all we really needed was a new president.

203.142 - 211.489 Cabot Phillips

Next, Trump went on to laud the accomplishments of Doge while pointing out especially egregious examples of government waste that his administration has uncovered.

212.553 - 246.356 Donald Trump

$22 billion from HHS to provide free housing and cars for illegal aliens. $45 million for diversity, equity, and inclusion scholarships in Burma. $40 million to improve the social and economic inclusion of sedentary migrants. Nobody knows what that is. $8 million to promote LGBTQI+. in the African nation of Lesotho, which nobody has ever heard of.

247.156 - 256.339 Cabot Phillips

And as we expected, Trump took aim at DEI policies, vowing to force the federal government and corporations to implement merit-based hiring strategies.

256.919 - 274.247 Donald Trump

We've ended the tyranny of so-called diversity, equity, and inclusion policies all across the entire federal government and indeed the private sector and our military. Our country will be woke no longer.
