Now, you were there beforehand as one of the press assistants, but this is different. This is like one of the most important jobs of the administration. How did you feel? And what was your focus? Like, how did you know, OK, I'm ready. I'm in business. Yes. Well, there is extensive preparation that goes into each briefing. And I'm so blessed to have an amazing team at the White House who helps me prepare. I brought three of our big guns yesterday. We had Stephen Miller, and Mike Waltz, and Kevin Hassett join me at the podium to celebrate one month. And I lean on the policy experts in the building to figure out what is fake news versus what is truth. So a lot of preparation, a lot of reading, talking to the president to understand his thinking. And then when I got to the podium, I realized the president is delivering on everything he said he was going to do, which makes my job as his spokeswoman easy, because I'm not working for a politician who's lying and we have to spin. I'm working for a man who said things, and he's delivering on those things every day. Now, I remember, because I worked in the first administration. And the press secretary at the time, I was a strategic communications senior advisor for President Trump. And our press secretary at the time was now Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders, who will be on stage with me tomorrow. But I remember those exchanges between Sarah and this guy. Let me remember his name. Wait a second. The CNN guy, Jim Acosta? Oh, oh, wait. He's not on CNN anymore. That's right. He was like so not, it was just so, I would say, you don't mind the aggressive questions. You take the aggressive questions. But it was just always to the point that it was like, how do you destroy Donald Trump? How do you destroy the individuals and staff? It was so, when they do say Trump derangement syndrome, and I do think that there's also Elon Musk derangement syndrome happening, too, with the media, because they don't know how to handle it. How do you view that differently from the first administration till now? Because it was a lot of dealing with Russian hoax at the beginning, special counsels. It was constant, because the media was trying so hard to, and they never apologized, right? They didn't apologize about the Russian hoax. Yeah, that's right. They didn't. So this time around, it's a very different strategy that you all are taking forward. What is that strategy? Well, first of all, since you brought up Jim Acosta, he's been saying some not so nice things about me online. And I've resisted responding, but since you brought him up, I'd like to say, Jim, at least I have a job, Jim, OK? Moving on, moving on. As far as the strategy, we are on offense. We are on offense every single day. And the president leads from an offensive mindset. We are not going to apologize for cutting waste, fraud, and abuse from our government. We are not going to apologize for mass-deporting illegal immigrant criminals who have broken our nation's laws and terrorized our communities. And we are not going to apologize for slashing regulations and undoing the disastrous policies of the previous administration. That's what the president said he was going to do. And that's what the majority of our fellow Americans want. The latest CBS poll, 70% of Americans say that President Trump is delivering on what he said he was going to do. So we're not going to apologize. We're going to keep moving ahead. And we try to bring that approach in our messaging every single day. So I got to ask you, you're working all the time. These jobs are, when I tell you, so demanding, they are so demanding. And I do feel that it is like warp speed what you're dealing with, even more so than we saw in the first administration. How do you get the strength to just get through every single day? My faith in God, absolutely. Waking up every day and just remembering I'm blessed. And we're all blessed to live in this country and to have a president who is looking out for us every day. Family support and our team at the White House. We really have a great team. And you talked about how the media tried to cause so much division within the White House in the first term. They're trying to do it, but I think they're failing. They are not getting away with it because we truly have such great camaraderie. And the people I work with every day, they're friends. And we're together, I mean, 18 hours a day. So you got to like who you're around. But we truly are having fun, and we're getting work done. And again, the president is leading with that positive, happy warrior attitude. And it transpires to the rest of the White House every day. And you know, in the first administration, there were those chiefs of staff that were trying to undermine President Trump. This is, I mean, Susie Wiles is so impressive in terms of being able to bring order and just, I think, so much structure to what we're seeing at the White House. Your reaction? Susie Wiles is wildly respected by every single person in that building. And she sets the tone. She sets the pace. She's like that person in your life that you'd never want to disappoint. Like, you'd never want Susie Wiles to look at you and be disappointed. Everybody just has the utmost respect for her, especially the president. And they have a great relationship. And she's done a phenomenal job. She led the most historic campaign in American history and the biggest victory on November 5th. And we're so grateful to have her at the White House. Now, I remember when I met Caroline. She was running for Congress in New Hampshire. Yes. And I mean, the energy and the charisma of this young woman. How old were you at that time? Oh, gosh. I wasn't even old enough to be in Congress when I started the campaign. I was 23 years old and turned 25 in the midst of it all. So what lessons did you learn during that campaign? And I watched you in action to what you are able to apply that to your job today. So many lessons. First of all, running for office was an incredible experience. And I think it helped prepare me a lot for this job. But obviously, public speaking, not being afraid, and just doubling down on your positions and your values. And I'm grateful for the experience. Glad I lost the general election, because this job is a heck of a lot more fun. No kidding. Well, you realize something in life. And you appreciate this. God has a plan, right? God has a plan for every single one of us. And with disappointments that come in life, then come other great opportunities and great things. OK, so let's talk about the Gulf of America. OK. OK, tell me what happened with the AP. Give me what's going on here. So it's just us, right? It's just us. Well, I really would love to answer this question. But upon driving over here from the White House, I actually learned that I have been sued by the Associated Press. Oh, that means, OK, we cannot. Wait, personally? We'll see them in court? Wait a second, personally? Yes. See, this is what these people do. It's called lawfare. You can't say it. I'll say it. It's called lawfare, people. That means I'll probably get sued in the next 30 minutes or so. OK, keep going. So I wanted to get the White House counsel on the phone before taking this stage to see what I can and cannot say. I really can't say anything. But look, we feel we are in the right in this position. And I said in my first briefing at the podium, we are going to ensure that truth and accuracy is present at that White House every single day. And one of the changes that we made, President Trump ran a nontraditional media strategy on the campaign trail. And he owned it. And he did podcasts, the Theo Vaughn podcast, the Joe Rogan podcast. He went places that no other politician has ever wanted to go. And it helped him earn votes. It helped him earn support. And we wanted to continue that approach at the White House. So we've added the new media seat in the White House briefing room. That's been fantastic. Thank you. Yes. We are inviting podcasters and influencers and independent journalists who aren't constrained by this legacy media bias to join us. They deserve the privilege of covering the President of the United States just as much as any other legacy media outlet who has spewed lies about President Trump for years. Lies about President Trump. Lies about the people who work for President Trump. Lies against people like yourselves. This is what the media, so many in the media, have done. I'm not saying all of them, because there are some good eggs out there for sure. But there is definitely the sense that they drove this narrative, that they pushed this leftist agenda. Didn't they forget to talk about Biden's mental decline for quite some time? That was a narrative that they just ignored, I guess, the color of the century. What were they doing, sitting out there in the White House just eating popcorn and going, yeah, why isn't he coming out to speak to us? And they didn't cover it. And I was so glad that Stephen Miller called out the press yesterday in the briefing. I'm not sure if you guys saw that. But he said many of the people in that room covered up Biden's mental incompetence. And he is right. And if you talk to these reporters off the record, that's the worst part about it. They won't report on it. But they will tell you off the record to your face that they knew Biden was incompetent, that the White House staff sometimes weren't showing up until noon. No work was being done. Nobody knew who was in charge. We all knew the truth in this room. And they tried to tell us, don't believe your lying eyes. He has all this energy and spirit. It was always a lie. And shame on the media for peddling it. So there is this thing called the press pool. And they walk. President Trump, he's in the Oval Office with all of his executive orders, the blue binders. And there they bring in the press pool. And he loves it. He thrives on it. Tell me about those exchanges. I just feel like the press, they are really, I mean, I don't know if they can work these 24-hour cycles of President Trump's new administration. I mean, can they? They're exhausted. Don't you think they should just take a vacation at this point, because they just can't keep up? Well, we've signed 73 executive orders. Actually, the president was signing two more when I left the White House. So 75 executive orders, quadruple the number of Barack Obama, double the number of Joe Biden in that same period of time. He is outworking every president ever. And the media can't keep up. But that first day, President Trump was, think about this. He was inaugurated, swore the oath of office, goes to the White House, sees his old office for the first time, the Resolute Desk. And he says, let's invite journalists into one of the most intimate spaces of the American presidency in the Oval Office, and I'll take questions from them on any topic they want for more than an hour. This is the most transparent and accessible president we have ever had, despite what the media wants to say. So you're a mom. I am. Isn't that fabulous? The best thing ever. It's the best thing ever. And I will tell you, in my time at the White House, it was with Sarah Huckabee Sanders, Ivanka Trump, Kellyanne Conway, Brooke Rollins. Between all this, we had 19 kids. I just, goodness gracious, a lot of kids. It's a huge sacrifice. But you look at your son, Nico, and why are you doing what you're doing? For him and for all of the other children in this country, we have a country to save. And I want my son to grow up in a free and patriotic America. We can be proud of. And thank you. I try to remind myself of that. Thank you. Thanks. All right, one more question here. So yesterday, I asked Vice President J.D. Vance. Who's great, by the way. Who loves our vice president? I mean, seriously. I asked him the question, what is your message to young men? There's a lot of young women out there, young girls who really admire you. I mean, in addition to being the youngest press secretary in history, really doing the work that you're doing and just being so strong while you're doing it. It's so admirable. What's your message to these young women? Stay strong. Speak the truth. And don't let anybody tell you you can't achieve your dream or you can't get to that next step. Just believe in yourself, because there will be a lot of people who don't believe in you, who cast doubt on you, who talk bad about you. Screw them. It doesn't matter.
