Conservative Champion: Agent DJ Daniel
There were many highlights from President Trump’s address to a joint session of Congress, but one young man stole America’s heart.
That young man was Agent DJ Daniel.
D.J. Daniel joined President Trump at the Joint Session—a 13-year-old battling cancer who has been sworn in as an honorary officer over 900 times.

Like a lot of kids growing up in Texas, DJ dreamed of becoming a police officer.
But in 2018, six-year-old DJ was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer.
He was given five months to live.
That started his incredible journey.
DJ has now been sworn in as an honorary officer to over 1,000 law enforcement agencies.
