Hello, American. Happy Friday and the second day of the CPAC conference here at Washington,

DC at the National Harbor Hotel. It's a remarkable few days. We have a lot of access to people

that sometimes are hard to get a hold of. Today we've got a special treat for you. We're

going to open up the podcast with a long discussion that Amanda had and I had yesterday

with former UN Ambassador, former South Carolina governor, Nikki Haley. She's thrown her hat

Brandon Judd. He's the president of the Union that represents Border Patrol agencies.

A straight talker, no bones about him. He tells you what he thinks, what he's doing, and

why it matters. We're going to get to him in the second half of the show. I'm really
