you know, when you have stephen miller out there writing, they're doing these type of lawsuits.eresting that the administration talks about lawfare, where the weaponization, you know, of the legal system when they're weaponizing the legal system, the legal system, you know, every accusation is a confession. and i think what you're seeing right now with stephen miller, he's definitely acting within orders of the white house. it is an inside out strategy. and i think, again, the american people need to look at this and say, is this really what we want our government doing? is there an integrity in this process? what are we talking about with law? but, you know, stephen miller doesn't have the greatest background either. i know a lot about him. and i think when you have this somebody this vapid and somebody that's this absolutely the most incoherent in their strategy, somebody who seems to lean towards the white nationalist side. i think people need to stand up and say, hey, we don't want a group like this coming here and telling us who we can hire, who we can't hire, and a governm

joining me now is white house deputy chief of staff stephen miller.: what do you think about that, by the way? raid to bring jobs back to america to bring companies and manufacturing back to america but there is something going on with the american workforce and young women choosing to accept the jobs that are looking to be offered to them. -- young men choosing to accept the jobs that are looking to be offered to them. >> mass migration drives americans out of the workforce in a permanent way often times through isolation it. if you went to new york city in the 1980s it was overwhelmingly likely that your cabdriver when you showed up would be a new yorker. a new york for the cab driver. i think only about 8% of cabbies in the 80s were so -- foreign-born. you would come in as a tourist from omaha, he would tell you about his favorite sites,'s favorite restaurants, favorite things to see. a good chance today that if you went to new york city the driver would be foreign-born. that is not an attack or insult or disparagement of that cabdriver. but as imm

so he wants his own people like stephen miller to have a role in this. we're told miller has a significant role in crafting the messaging. doj officials told cnn today that miller talks to, quote, a wide range of individuals across the administration, and that his position as trump's homeland security advisor makes him intricately involved in the justice department's immigration enforcement actions. so not a denial that he is involved in this. but again, we've seen some missteps here. we saw the epstein rollout. it's unclear exactly who was responsible for that. that didn't go very smoothly. we've also seen a high profile press conference with the attorney general, sort of conflated a civil versus a criminal case. look, she was a prosecutor for 30 years, someone who really wouldn't necessarily make those kinds of mistakes. but the justice department responded to our story today by saying, president trump's department of justice is laser focused on making our streets safe, deporting criminal illegals, and ending the weaponization of our justice system. an

several members of trump's braintrust, including wilbur ross, steve bannon, peter navarro and stephen miller, wanted trump to be quote, "slapping tariffs like a supermarket clerk firing off price labels." (kevin laughs) i mean, are there tariffs that are unacceptable to you as a economist, a free market economist? they're not all created equal, as we both know. so, you know, make the case for why these tariffs are your good tariffs, not bad tariffs. - right. well, when we started to really dig into trade policy at the beginning of the trump administration, we just started studying, you know, what the chinese were doing with their trade policy, and it was really pretty chilling. it was like they were preparing for war. so, for example, they have pretty much three times the steel capacity that they need. and, you know, steel is really important if there's a war 'cause just about everything that you use in war has got steel in it. and they're, you know, dumping steel into the u.s., trying to put our steel companies out of business. and, you know, maybe it's good to get cheap steel this year, bu

. >> kayleigh: stephen miller does an excellent job hiring highlighting stories of people that inspireod at telling a story. he's not speechwriting anymore. but you know what i would do if i were the trump administration is this, the one criticism democrats are using are they doing anything on price's? they are, the trump administration on the leading in the department interior when he came in to do these orders to unleash american industry. so i would look at the harvard/harris poll resounding approval for what trump is doing but number one, inflation and number two immigration and number three economy. number one and three go hand-in-hand. to use this to break through in media narrative which is about doge, ukraine, focus a number one and three. not exclusively but it should be the marquee issue and end with pricing and start with pricing. >> harris: i want to get this and, hold on the second, nancy pelosi telling "the washington post," "in a demonstration of disagreement visual or whatever, just let him stew in his own juice and don't be any risk for the mail to say this was an appr

we are seeing that undernder kristi noem, dhs secretary, tom homan, stephen miller here in the whiteose the border and stop e there. member two, you go out fencecoup around the world and enter president trump, we have killed a couple dozen global terrorists with intent to attack thene b united states. we have gone back on offense abroad. under biden, w he had not doneo that and delegated those ofa authorities down to people that n needed it and had a wide open border. and under kash patel, we start rounding them up and using the intel that tulsi gabbard, john ratcliffe at cia are goingr to provide. we have to clean up this mess before another attack. those are the broader steps we will take under president trump's leadership,th close the border, go offensive brought, hunt those people down and deport them.e ab >> brian: so much worse than anybody thought that you are doing it one by one. it is hard for mike waltz to geu sleep but he is a great engine. thank you so much michael waltz, security advisor, appreciated. >> thank you. >> brian: still to come, "one nation" cohost's back but

i was a little nervous because stephen miller has a new role and he's the best speechwriter i think we've in this country in some time but these are incredible, what you are about to hear. particularly, you know, my concern today was i really hope he hits the economy. as some have said, the media focuses on d.o.g.e., on ukraine, that's all great and well and good but this president can only economy, this president has seen a ten-point swing in the direction the economy is going. this president has seen the best numbers on the economy since before joe biden, and i think is going to give the american people a history lesson. we had the worst inflation in the last half-century other president joe biden. he's working to flip that and he's going to get into those remarks and tease the golden age of america. these are uplifting, they are not caustic, they are not fighting words from what i've seen, as we see mike johnson gabbling in. this is a president is ready to tout is more hunt -- more than 400 executive actions. >> jesse: there is how speaker johnson gabbling us in. i believe we are going

[laughs] simone bibles we will get this down because every other republican understands stephen millerervation a few weeks ago and the thing about governing with a clear majority is it is clarifying. everyone will get on board because they understand the strategy. we are making this play back to football so they can score. to the big score when back in the game changes how it works and we are on the verge of that. you have to do proper sequence to make sure that happens. the playbook right now makes sense to everybody. on one of those guys. let me say clearly, the president has been clear and we are clear. we will protect medicaid, okay at, for everyone eligible to receive that. what we will do is cut out the fraud, waste and abuse in all the terrible things happening in the program to make it work more efficiently and effectively and to save the program for those who need it. >> kayleigh: let's keep the football analogies. you cannot play at west coast offense without the defense. on that line the article went on to say while leadership, let's say, allegedly fomenting the process and

this is what we are hearing from stephen miller, who says the schools need to expel the terrorist sympathizersar, this is a violation of the federal civil rights of american students and american jewish students on these campuses. this is also a national security issue. we cannot have our universities becoming a hotbed for extremism, jihadi is him, and terrorist sympathy. >> reporter: take a live look at what we are seeing right now on the campus here. the ivy league schools in new york city, it is quite right now, but that could change any minute. dana? >> dana: alexis mcadams in new york city. thank you. ♪ ♪ >> that abject failure underscored critical gaps in secret service operations, and i recognize that we did not meet the expectations of the american public, congress, and hour protect east. >> bill: a lot of stories you have to be fleshed out. the accused would be assassin set to appear in federal court this morning in florida, made a push for answers over the multiple attempts against his life. what the president said about this man, ryan routh, just yesterday. we will have that for you

you know, the fbi is braced for stephen miller at the white house as deputy chief of staff for policyil bove the deputy attorney general who's who's still operating, basically on miller's instructions to clean house of anybody who was involved in these cases. um, so boldly that they even wrote that into the executive order. >> pam bondi the the attorney general, she recently accused the fbi in new york office of withholding information about, uh, jeffrey epstein. i don't know how she i mean, she was promoting this release of documents that turned out to be really documents that had already been released. i don't know why she didn't know that in advance. once the reaction to it kind of blew back on her, she suddenly said, oh, well, it's the fbi. i now learned that they're been withholding stuff, right? >> and two weeks ago she said, you know, it's all on my desk. >> she saw it the night before. she was like, you're going to be surprised, you know, by it. >> and so i think you got two things going on here. one, in right wing blogger circles, they were saying, you know, where's the clien

the attorney general kind of found out the hard way when they released the epstein files and stephen millere white house actually gave all these binders to right wing influencers. and then everyone sort of said, what was that? there was nothing in there, and people were angry. can you bypass the regular system? right. media. et cetera. in the governing phase, it's one thing to do it in the campaigning phase. what's it like doing it now? >> that's a really good question, audie. i guess we will see. they have to keep this channel of communication open with their audience, and they are going to those places. but it isn't the same. you know, people expect results. >> yeah, yeah. and also like andrew tate coming back to the u.s. like there's obviously some voices they want to keep uh energetic and powerful because of their communities. >> and particularly the pam bondi thing. there's some great reporting from paula reid and hannah rabinowitz here at cnn, just in the last day about the fact that the justice department sidelined its career communications people in favor of this sort of, um. influe

light laughter ] after president trump's address last night, deputy white house chief of staff stephen millercized democrats' protest in the house chamber and said, quote, "has there ever been a more disgraceful and pitiful and malicious display." yeah. if you've ever seen something worse, raise your hand. [ laughter ] president trump is set on friday to host a cryptocurrency summit at the white house. because if you're really into crypto, you're probably free on friday nights. [ laughter ] canadian prime minister justin trudeau pushed back against president trump's calls to annex canada yesterday and said, quote, "we will never be the 51st state." totally fair. but can we interest you in an 11th province? [ laughter ] president trump said on monday that he's received phone calls from four prime ministers and five presidents in two days about the war in ukraine. "so, he does have a phone," yelled eric. [ laughter ] a florida man was arrested recently after he allegedly swallowed two pairs of diamond earrings at a tiffanys store in orlando before running out the door. wow. and you thought gett

as stephen miller suggested. this is a life and death matter, and i think ukrainians will be looking to see from trump if there is any signs that what zelenskyy is offered today, a significant standdown on ukraine's part in terms of their interpretation of the oval office meeting, actually yields a rapprochement in their relationship. erin. >> all right. thank you very much, nic. live in kyiv and everyone is back here with me. governor pawlenty, um, you know, it is it is still jarring, um, for for if you're nick staring where nick is or any of us who have spent time in ukraine to hear the mocking tone with which some around trump talk about zelenskyy and ukraine. right. your fancy tracksuit or, you know, regardless, this is life or death. this is a war zone. we're a whole part of the country is mined, where people have been dying by the hundreds of thousands between the two, and somehow it seems to be sort of a game. >> you know, aaron, history is pretty clear what happens when the world appeases autocratic invad

stephen miller tends to lead the crafting. they bring guests that will feed into kind of the narratives that they're pushing and the policy priorities. so he's got angel moms tonight, um, someone whose daughter was killed by an undocumented migrant in the in the country. i think that listen, he's got some opportunities to highlight some bipartisan wins, safeguarding ivf, effectively ending the border crisis, new investments in artificial intelligence. but then there's some really hot button issues that the country is on edge about. so i'm going to be curious to see what does he say about cost of living? what does he say about tariffs? when we saw the market just tanking today and of course all eyes on ukraine. >> all right, david i mean it's a chaotic moment. it's a fragile moment. it's a moment that there's a lot of fear. >> there's no doubt about that. but i also want to say this, uh, you know, all presidents. >> sort of feed off. of perceptions of the person who came before. >> and they want to position against what. >> peo

and usually a senior adviser would be in the speaker's lobby behind off of the floor with stephen miller and others would be. but i think it just shows he's in this sort of above the cabinet different position with this sweeping influence within the administration. but listen, i think that donald trump is messaging doge better than elon musk is if he's talking about efficiency, if he's talking about making the government work better for people, that's a winning message. but the constant errors that we've been seeing, the announcements of what have been cut. >> and the chainsaw. >> it was a lot. >> i mean, you know, let me say, if i were democrats, i would never be opposed to, uh, you know, cutting waste, fraud and abuse, making government more efficient, seeing how we can make government more responsive. and i think they make a mistake by being resistant to the notion of making government more efficient. but what musk is doing seems much more indiscriminate. and i think that that's what people. >> yeah, and guess what? republicans love it. and i will just say, i think the democrats. >> w

we are a little bit of nick's purposes here, as i know from the president's perspective, and stephen miller who helps us coordinate across all law enforcement and government, 287g in a relationships are very important. but you're talking about is whether it is just prisons or jails were we are serving in that sort of function, detention, but if you start to look at where we are looking for the 300,000 left children in america, i think that partnership with the sheriffs will be really critical and important only just on immigration, but in helping locate and find those 300,000. >> to 300,000 is not of the sheriffs are worried about. they're worried they're they are going to be deputized go after the local taco vendor. they don't want to be going into funds to look for undocumented migrant workers. it is not worth their time, is not with public money to do that. if you want to go after these hard-core criminals, that is where there is alignment with the arizona citizen who is willing to pay the money to go after the rapists, the drug dealers, these horrible people. but it is when you're going

residents and extremists like stephen miller who have championed the idea know that they do not have the votes to pass a constitutional amendment to repeal birthright citizenship , must -- much less get the approval to make it law. they are trying to do an end run on the constitution with a tortured and unconstitutional reading of the english language in more than a century of legal analysis. republican colleagues are here today trying to enable the president as he pushes his wager that his supreme court, the one that he staff will ratify his illegal attempt to amend the constitution without the consent of the american people. as a congress, as a government, as a nation, we should not be in the business of turning back the clock and allowing or pushing our country to backslide into the most shameful parts of its past. instead we should be passing laws that guided the light of a brighter future, one of which the most fundamental american principles in the promise to form a more perfect union rang true for all rather than just a privileged few. and that, that more just, that warfare am

you're not there simply to follow orders from the president, from stephen miller and elon musk.vernment that a president have people in his cabinet of wisdom, experience. and tell the president what he what he needs to hear. >> and i worry. >> that he's not getting that right now. >> you know, ronald reagan, j. a quote reagan said was, we know only too well that war comes not when the forces of freedom are strong, but when they are weak. that is when tyrants are tempted and going to what you what you said about ronald reagan. there's a reason why there are statues in eastern europe to ronald reagan in warsaw, a large statue to ronald reagan streets. and entire areas named after ronald reagan because ronald reagan. what did he say? he talked about peace. through strength. and the people of eastern europe. mika's father, one of them. saw their countries absolutely decimated and dominated, in part because countries of the free world, time and time again underestimated whether it was joseph stalin or, as i've been saying, khrushchev. vienna, with jfk. we can talk about, of course, g
