The incoming Trump Administration 2.0 is starting to take shape. And as expected, it’s a Democrat’s worst nightmare. President-elect Donald Trump is expected to name Stephen Miller, an immigration hardliner with white nationalist views, to be his deputy chief of staff. He also officially announced his picks for ‘border czar,’ EPA director and U.N. ambassador, all of them in line with his repeated promise to appoint loyalists that will help him bend the government to his whims. Zack Beauchamp, senior correspondent for Vox and author of the book “The Reactionary Spirit,” explains what Trump's picks mean for the continual functioning of our democracy. And in headlines: President Biden’s lead adviser for international climate policy shared strong words about Trump at an annual U.N. climate change conference, President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris made their first joint appearance since the election at a Veterans Day event, and abolitionist Harriet Tubman was posthumously awarded the rank of one-star Brigadier General in the Maryland National Guard.

I'm Jane Koston and this is what a Day, the show where we're watching the new Mission Impossible trailer on a loop just to feel something.
You know, if Tom Cruise just jumps off of an even taller building, I think that'll fix everything.
On today's show, world leaders brace themselves for climate policy under Trump, and Harriet Tubman gets a special recognition.
Just not the $20 bill we're still waiting for.
Let's get into it.
The incoming Trump administration 2.0 is starting to take shape, and as expected, it's a Democrat's worst nightmare.
President Elect Trump is expected to name Stephen Miller, a right wing nativist with white nationalist views, to be his deputy chief of staff.
Trump hasn't officially made the announcement, but Vice President elect J.D.
vance seemed to confirm it on Twitter Monday.
Miller was a senior advisor during Trump's first term and was one of the architects of the 2018 policy to separate parents from their children at the border.
He's still the same immigration hardliner as evidenced by his speech at that infamous Madison Square Garden rally before the election.
Who's going to stand up and say.
The cartels are gone, the criminal migrants are gone, the gangs are gone, America.
Is for Americans and Americans only?
Gross in appointments that Trump did officially announce, he's picked Tom Homan, his former acting Immigration and Customs Enforcement director, to be his new border czar.
In a truth social post, Trump said Homan will be in charge of, quote, all deportation of illegal aliens back to their country of origin.
Homan said as much during an interview on Fox and Friends on Monday.
In this exchange with co host Steve Doocy, I know you don't want to.
Give away the whole game book, but.
