Speaker 1 Trust. It's not just given.
It's earned. Earned in the early mornings, in the late nights.
Earned by generations of real California dairy families who care. And carried on by even the littlest ones.

Speaker 1 Care for their cows, for their land, for their community, and care for you. Because when 99% of our dairy farms are family-owned, you're getting generations of tradition you can trust.

Speaker 1 Real California milk. Look for the seal.

Speaker 2 President Trump moves to address the flight crisis. Two executives at the BBC resign over misleading coverage of January 6th, and the president calls a commander's game.

Speaker 2 I'm Georgia Howe with Daily Wire executive editor John Bickley. It's Monday, November 10th, and this is Evening Wire.

Speaker 1 With the shutdown nearing an end, President Trump wasted no time in addressing one of its key pain points, air travel.

Speaker 1 The president wrote on Truth Social this morning that air traffic controllers must get back to work or else have their pay, quote, substantially docked.

Speaker 1 The president also praised the controllers who continued working throughout the shutdown, calling them great patriots and pledging to recommend a $10,000 bonus for, quote, distinguished service to our country.

Speaker 1 The FAA ordered that 4% of today's flights be canceled due to the shutdown, with that number scheduled to rise up to 10% by Friday.

Speaker 1 But Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy says he's exploring every option to keep planes flying. Here he is talking to CNN.

Speaker 3 Pete Hagseth, Secretary of War, texted me yesterday and said, I might have some air traffic controllers. If you could use them, I'm going to offer them to you.

Speaker 3 Now, I don't know that I can, Jake, because they're not certified in the airspaces that we need them. But if I can, I'm going to use them.

Speaker 3 Everyone in this administration, at the direction of President Trump, has said, minimize the pain on Americans. So this is not political.
This is strictly safety.

Speaker 3 And I'm doing what I can in a mess that Democrats have put on my lap. And now I'm trying to keep the American people safe safe and keep airplanes flying.

Speaker 1 President Trump has pardoned Rudy Giuliani and dozens of other election allies as another, quote, witch hunt goes up in smoke. ADWIRE reporter Zach Jewell has the details.

Speaker 4 The Justice Department announced over the weekend that the president pardoned more than 70 of his allies over actions they took in the aftermath of the 2020 presidential election.

Speaker 4 Along with the former New York City mayor, Trump pardoned his former chief of staff Mark Meadows, constitutional lawyer John Eastman, lawyer and conservative radio host Jenna Ellis, and attorney Sidney Powell.

Speaker 4 The action protects them from federal prosecution for their efforts related to Trump's legal challenges to the 2020 election.

Speaker 4 The pardon signed by Trump on Friday declares, quote, this proclamation ends a grave national injustice perpetrated upon the American people following the 2020 presidential election and continues the process of national reconciliation.

Speaker 1 The International Olympic Committee is reportedly preparing to ban transgender identifying men in women's sports. Daily Wire reporter Amanda Presagiacomo has a story.

Speaker 5 The policy reversal follows a scientific review concluding that biological males retain permanent physical advantages even after hormone treatment.

Speaker 5 According to sources inside the organization, the move marks a major shift under new IOC president Christy Coventry, who has vowed to protect the integrity of women's competition.

Speaker 5 For years, the IOC has allowed trans-identifying males to compete if they reduce testosterone levels below 10 nanomoles per liter for at least 12 months. That left enforcement up to each sport.

Speaker 5 That approach led to inconsistent policies with sports like swimming and track already implementing bans on males and women's events, while others, including soccer, did not.

Speaker 2 Two top BBC executives announced their resignations on Sunday amid a massive scandal over their editing of Trump's comments on January 6th.

Speaker 2 Here with the details is Daily Wire senior editor Joel Needler.

Speaker 1 BBC Director General Tim Davey and CEO of News Deborah Turnis said they would leave after the controversy exploded over a documentary on the January 6 Capitol riot.

Speaker 1 According to a leaked BBC memo, an independent advisor to the public broadcasters said the documentary, quote, completely misled viewers about the events of the day, particularly President Trump's role in the chaos.

Speaker 1 The documentary cut out Trump's call for protesters to make their voices heard, quote, peacefully and patriotically, instead making it sound like he called for violence.

Speaker 1 The president's attorneys have demanded that the BBC, quote, retract the false, defamatory, disparaging, and inflammatory statements and apologize, or else face a $1 billion lawsuit.

Speaker 1 Despite endorsing Democrat socialist Zoran Mondani, New York Governor Kathy Hochl is pumping the brakes on some of his key policies.

Speaker 1 The Democrat governor is making it clear that she's not all in on progressive policies if they place a greater financial burden on a system that's already strapped.

Speaker 1 That includes his plan to make buses in New York free. Here she is at a press conference this weekend being asked about Mom Dani promising free buses and childcare.

Speaker 6 I cannot set forth a plan right now that takes money out of a system that relies on the fares of the buses and the subways. But can we find a path to make it more affordable for people who need help?

Speaker 6 Of course we can. What about child care and? Child care I already committed to.
So we'll be on a path to get there because I'm committed to this as a mom governor. I get it.
But also

Speaker 6 to do it statewide right now, it's about $15 billion,

Speaker 6 the entire amount of my reserves.

Speaker 2 Speaking of the New York governor, New York Congresswoman Elise Stefanik, who recently announced her bid for governor, made some biting comments aimed at her over the weekend.

Speaker 2 After accepting an award at an event sponsored by the Zionist Organization of America, Stefanik first ripped into Zoran Momdani as quote a raging anti-Semite to fund the police tax hiking communist.

Speaker 2 She also criticized Hochl for endorsing Mamdani, quote, at the very moment that New Yorkers were looking for strength and moral clarity.

Speaker 2 Federal agents indicted two Cleveland Guardians pitchers for alleged sports betting and a money laundering scheme. Daily Wire reporter Lyndon Blake has more.

Speaker 8 Two Cleveland Guardians pitchers have been indicted in a federal sports betting scheme.

Speaker 8 Emmanuel Klase and Louise Ortiz were charged over the weekend for their alleged roles in manipulating pitch outcomes during games to benefit co-conspirators who place bets on their performances.

Speaker 8 Since the rise of legalized sports betting in the U.S., online sports books have begun offering highly specific real-time proposition bets on baseball.

Speaker 8 For example, whether the first pitch of a pitcher's outing will be a ball or a strike.

Speaker 8 Prosecutors say Klaus and Ortiz worked with fraudulent bettors to fix individual pitches, allegedly generating more than $400,000 in illicit winnings.

Speaker 8 The two now face potential prison time, along with what's likely the end of their MLB careers.

Speaker 2 A Nebraska woman has defied medical oz by turning 20 this month despite being born with almost no brain. Daily Wire assistant editor Andy Valdez has more.

Speaker 2 When Alex Simpson was born, doctors gave her at most four years to live because of a rare condition called hydronencephaly, which left her with only a few grams of brain tissue at the base of her skull.

Speaker 2 While most patients with the condition don't live past their first birthday, Alex celebrated her 20th with her family on November 4th.

Speaker 2 Although Alex was born without the parts of her brain responsible for hearing and sight, her family says the 20-year-old woman seems to be deeply in tune with the emotions of those around her.

Speaker 2 To her family, Alex's 20 years are not just a medical mystery, but a testament to perseverance, prayer, and unexpected grace.

Speaker 1 And President Trump made history over the weekend, becoming the first sitting president since Jimmy Carter to attend a regular season NFL game.

Speaker 1 He joined the Fox Sports booth during the Washington Commanders matchup against the Detroit Lions. and even weighed in on commentary as Marcus Mariota led a touchdown drive.

Speaker 1 This is a very big play, don't you think? I think. They have to get a touchdown.
Let's put it differently. They just have to get a touchdown.
There we go.

Speaker 1 Now you're doing my job because that's what I was going to say. They have to get a touchdown.
Just forget about the play. They have to get a touchdown.

Speaker 1 The visit was part of the NFL's salute to service celebration, where Trump honored new U.S. military enlistees.
