JESSE WATTERS (HOST): Republican senator Kevin Cramer says this: "Do two wrongs make a right? No. But two wrongs can at least get us to a fresh start." And Trump just wiped the slate clean by ending DEI and pardoning Jan 6ers. It's a fresh start for the whole country. And now everyone's even, right? Well, we'll see.
Former Speaker of the House, KMac, is here. Alright, KMac. So, bye-bye DEI. Is it ever coming back?
KEVIN MCCARTHY (GUEST): No, I think the rest of the country wanted this to go away. I mean, you think about it, we are coming after the holiday of Martin Luther King. They want to be judged by the character of who they are and that's exactly what President Trump is doing. I mean, what's so unusual is here we have a man who ran for office, made promises, and is keeping them on the very first day. Why is that so shocking? This is what American people voted for, they had a clear choice. And what's so ironic here is that Democrats' candidate was a DEI pick. She never went through any campaign, they put her up and she lost. America has spoken and President Trump is carrying it out.
WATTERS: Well Trump at the Rotunda promised to make Martin Luther King's dream become a reality and I guess he just did because he killed DEI. So, check that off the list.
