[0:00] Your take on the selection of Stephen Miller and what he signals for the two
[0:04] years we have ahead of us. Well, look, I think the president is

[1:06] challenge. But like there's any doubt that the
[1:07] president was hoping to basically create conflict with the legislative branch
[1:10] here. And yet the president simultaneously is
