And finally, one of the biggest frauds in 29 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 3: American government history, this time dealing with food stamps, has 30 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 3: been uncovered, and you'll be angry to find out just 31 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 3: how much of your tax money was stolen.

In fact, Barack Obama effectively 38 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:19,079 Speaker 3: served as Hillary Clinton's personal lawyer. And there's a reason 39 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 3: why this story I'm telling you right now is not 40 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,760 Speaker 3: going viral. In fact, there's silence in the media on 41 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:28,360 Speaker 3: this issue, and that's exactly why I want you to 42 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:32,639 Speaker 3: share this podcast wherever you can so that we can 43 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:36,800 Speaker 3: get these details out. Here's what we know. Former FBI 44 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:40,960 Speaker 3: lawyer at least A Page testified before Congress that the 45 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 3: DOJ advise the FBI not to pursue charges against Clinton 46 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:51,080 Speaker 3: for gross negligence in handling classified information. Page stated that 47 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 3: the DOJ considered the term quote gross negligent to be 48 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 3: constitutionally vague, influencing the decision not to proceed with this 49 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:04,239 Speaker 3: specific charge. The FBI Director James Commey, in a twenty 50 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:09,799 Speaker 3: sixteen press conference, described Clinton's actions as quote extremely careless, 51 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 3: but concluded that quote no reasonable prosecutor would bring such 52 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 3: a case, recommending that no charges be filed. Why did 53 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 3: he say that, because he was also protecting the Clinton family. 54 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 3: President Barack Obama publicly stated that he guaranteed there would 55 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 3: be no political influence in the FBI investigation of the 56 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 3: Clinton emails, emphasizing that evidence, not politics, would dictate the outcome. 57 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 3: But behind closed doors, he did the complete opposite of 58 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 3: that with the new allegations that are coming forward. In fact, 59 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 3: I want you to hear this report from Fox News 60 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 3: and Brett Baer. 61 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 4: Right about what the Obama Justice Department ordered federal lawyers 62 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 4: to do and not to do concerning the Hillary Clinton 63 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 4: email investigation. Chief Intelligence correspondent Katherine Harris tells us in 64 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 4: sworn to testimony on Capitol Hill, one of the insiders 65 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 4: told lawmakers what she was told. 66 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 5: During closed door testimony last summer. Former FBI lawyer Lisa 67 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 5: Paige said the Obama administration's Justice Department advised the FBI 68 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 5: not to pursue the gross negligent statute for Hillary Clinton 69 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 5: in the mishandling of classified information. Former US attorney and 70 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 5: House Republican John Radcliffe led the line of questioning about 71 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 5: the statute, known as eighteen USC. Seven ninety three. Ratcliffe, 72 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,279 Speaker 5: you're making it sound like it was the department that 73 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:33,239 Speaker 5: told you you're not going to charge gross negligence because 74 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 5: we're the prosecutors, Paige interrupted, that is correct. Page's testimony 75 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 5: appears to conflict with then FBI Director James Comey's recommendation 76 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:44,839 Speaker 5: in July twenty sixteen against criminal charges for Clinton. 77 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 6: What I can assure the American people is that this 78 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:53,839 Speaker 6: investigation was done honestly, confidently, and independently. No outside influence 79 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 6: of any kind was brought to bear. 80 00:04:55,600 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 5: The Republican Ledhouse Oversight and Judiciary Committee investigation and didn't. January, 81 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 5: with Democrats now in control, the committee's new ranking Republican 82 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 5: made the page transcript public. 83 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:09,600 Speaker 7: The transcript releases show an inherent two tier system, one 84 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 7: in which Hillary Clinton gets the treatment that she got 85 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 7: where they was actually at first concern that they were 86 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 7: going to charge her, and then with Loretta Lynch in 87 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 7: charge before she recused herself, made it very clear that 88 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 7: that was not going to happen. 89 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 5: The tip off came from a chart drawn up by 90 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 5: federal investigators assigned to the Clinton case, known as Meteor Exam. 91 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 5: Fox News has confirmed that the chart listed possible federal 92 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:33,159 Speaker 5: statutes for prosecution. Next to gross negligence was a notation 93 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 5: quote DOJ not willing to charge this. Only known cases 94 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 5: are military cases when accused lost the information. In response 95 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 5: to the page revelations, the President tweeted the transcripts quote 96 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 5: make the Obama Justice Department look exactly like it was 97 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 5: a broken and corrupt machine. The page transcript also confirms 98 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:55,280 Speaker 5: Fox's earlier reporting. The page testified Russia collusion was still 99 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 5: unproven when Special Counsel Robert Muller was appointed. 100 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 3: So let's just recap the as we know them now. 101 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:05,280 Speaker 3: Number One, the FBI and the DOJ were ordered by 102 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 3: Barack Obama to not arrest Hillary Clinton. Why because they 103 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,839 Speaker 3: were protecting her at all costs. Number Two, James Comey 104 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:17,039 Speaker 3: deliberately lied to the American people days before the election 105 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 3: in twenty sixteen, and yes, he was also protecting the 106 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:27,599 Speaker 3: Clinton family at Barack Obama's orders. The CIA, John Radcliffe 107 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:31,360 Speaker 3: sang quote Lisa Page confirmed to me under oath that 108 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 3: the FBI was ordered by the Obama DOJ not to 109 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,479 Speaker 3: consider charging Hillary Clinton. In other words, no matter what 110 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 3: crime she committed, no matter what she did with her emails, 111 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 3: no matter what she didn't destroying them, no matter what 112 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 3: servers they were on, and no matter how much classified 113 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 3: information she had in her possession that she was not 114 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 3: supposed to have in a laptop or in emails or 115 00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:01,719 Speaker 3: on a private server, it didn't matter. The FBI, under 116 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 3: Barack Obama's orders, was never going to charge Hillary Clinton 117 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 3: with anything, whether it was gross negligence or the mishandling 118 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 3: of classified information. All of this goes back to the 119 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 3: single issue how much were we lied to in this 120 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 3: country by a corrupt deep state that was led by 121 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 3: Barack Obama. Well, now we know just how bad it 122 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 3: actually was. Next story number two, there's one thing that 123 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 3: we know for sure. The media lied to us about 124 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 3: the Egyptian illegal who let innocent people on fire in Boulder, Colorado. 125 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 3: We also know that the police chief in Boulder, Colorado 126 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 3: played politics and didn't want to tell you the truth 127 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 3: about this being a terrorist act. Well, that's not all 128 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 3: they're covering up, and that's part of the reason why 129 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 3: we do this show so you know exactly what is 130 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 3: happening in this investigation. One thing is for sure is 131 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,239 Speaker 3: the Egyptian illegal immigrant who was led into this country 132 00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 3: during the Biden administration said he quote wanted to kill 133 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 3: all Zionis people and had planned the attack for at 134 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 3: least a year. Mohammed Soliman has just been charged with 135 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 3: a federal hate crime. Here is more of what we've 136 00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 3: learned from my good friends at Fox and Kaylee Mcanany. 137 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 8: We have some new details federal authorities releasing the charges 138 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:24,119 Speaker 8: for the man accused of setting eight people on fire 139 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 8: and that targeted terror attack in Boulder, Colorado. Officials say 140 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 8: he's now being charged with a hate crime. That's federally 141 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 8: and this is what they found. They found at least 142 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:36,840 Speaker 8: fourteen unlit molotov cocktails on his person, along with that 143 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 8: makeshift flamethrower. The molotovs comprised of glass wine caraff bottles 144 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:45,760 Speaker 8: or ball jars containing clear liquid and red rags hanging 145 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,560 Speaker 8: out of the bottles. He made these himself. In fact, 146 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 8: it says that he researched on YouTube how to do this, 147 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:55,520 Speaker 8: and later during an interview with the officials, the suspects stated, outright, 148 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 8: and he's talking. He stated he wanted to quote kill 149 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:02,320 Speaker 8: all Zionist people and wished they were all dead. He 150 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,719 Speaker 8: also stated that he would do it again emily. He 151 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 8: also said during the Center Mean he specifically targeted the 152 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 8: Zionist group that had gathered in Boulder. He knew they 153 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:14,440 Speaker 8: planned to meet that day, Sunday at one pm. He 154 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:16,840 Speaker 8: arrived at twelve fifty five and waited for them. 155 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:18,840 Speaker 9: I love that. He also said that he's been planning 156 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 9: this attack for over a year, but he wanted to 157 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 9: wait until his daughter graduated because he gets to make 158 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 9: that choice. But what about the choice of the Jewish 159 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 9: victims who don't get to make a choice when they 160 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:30,320 Speaker 9: are attacked, or don't get to make a choice if 161 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 9: they die, which, by the way, there with an attempt 162 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 9: to murder them. The hate crime charge brings a life 163 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 9: imprisoned sentence, which I hope he gets. This is so foul. 164 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 9: And he also said that he learned on YouTube how 165 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,320 Speaker 9: to make a molotov cocktail. This is what is being 166 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:47,079 Speaker 9: fomented right now that someone has the audacity, the ability, 167 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:52,080 Speaker 9: and the actionable information to molotov cocktail and then flamethrow 168 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:56,080 Speaker 9: against peaceful Jewish citizens and gets the luxury of doing 169 00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:58,440 Speaker 9: so after his daughter graduates, after he drives across the 170 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 9: country and builds his molotov with gas at the gas station. 171 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,439 Speaker 9: This is absolutely unacceptable. We know that there are questions 172 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:07,560 Speaker 9: surrounding his identity, given that he's for some reason twenty 173 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:10,319 Speaker 9: one on his identification, he shouldn't have been in this country, 174 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:13,120 Speaker 9: and now people are suffering for it horrifically, including a 175 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 9: Holocaust survivor. As you pointed out earlier. 176 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 3: A Holocaust survivor is one of the victims of this individual. 177 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 3: So the question you have to ask yourself is this, 178 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:27,559 Speaker 3: why is the media still covering up this story? Why 179 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:30,080 Speaker 3: are they not wanting to tell you that the terrorist 180 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 3: suspect said quote he would do it again and showed 181 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:38,599 Speaker 3: no remorse to those as he was speaking in law enforcement. 182 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 3: This also brings up another big story. We also have 183 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 3: the largest ICE ray that's just been conducted, resulting in 184 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 3: over fourteen hundred illegals being arrested in Massachusetts, and the 185 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,560 Speaker 3: question is how many more terrorists are out there that 186 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 3: came to this country illegally, just like Mohammed Soliman, the 187 00:10:56,440 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 3: man who came from Egypt. Well, take a listen to 188 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 3: what the ICE director had to say when talking about 189 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,960 Speaker 3: why they were forced to go into Massachusetts and do 190 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 3: a massive cleanup. 191 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 10: In the meantime, in Massachusetts, you had I think the 192 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:14,800 Speaker 10: largest ever raid or at least a netting of arrests 193 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,079 Speaker 10: of one thy four hundred and sixty one people. That's 194 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:20,760 Speaker 10: the largest so far. And those that were arrested, seven 195 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:23,559 Speaker 10: hundred and ninety of them had criminal convictions and two 196 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,160 Speaker 10: hundred and seventy seven had what we were just talking about, 197 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:28,760 Speaker 10: final orders of removal or deportation. 198 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:30,200 Speaker 8: Tell us Mark and Dana. 199 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 11: It was a great operation and the fact that it 200 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:33,959 Speaker 11: was over the course of a month really shows the 201 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:35,559 Speaker 11: commitment of the men and women of vice here in 202 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:37,680 Speaker 11: Massachusetts and all over New England, and we took a 203 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 11: whole government approach. 204 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:40,559 Speaker 7: We used all of our partners. 205 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 11: To include diplomatic security, the US Marshall Service atf FBI 206 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:48,319 Speaker 11: DEA to really locate and arrest these criminal aliens. One 207 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 11: highlight for this operation is the fact that it was 208 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 11: successful because we worked with our joint partners in a 209 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:57,440 Speaker 11: sanctuary state like Massachusetts, where it's extremely difficult. Where we 210 00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 11: had operations Tidal Wave last month in Florida, there was 211 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 11: a week long operation working with our state partners. That's 212 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 11: a state that cooperates with us. Here in Massachusetts, we 213 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 11: don't have any cooperations from local departments or from the state, 214 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:11,920 Speaker 11: which makes it extremely difficult for ICE to get out 215 00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 11: there and find these bad guys. 216 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 3: You think about how many prospective terrorists are among us 217 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,720 Speaker 3: that came across the border, and we're given, in essence, 218 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,440 Speaker 3: the ability to stay here and protection from the Biden 219 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 3: Harrish regime. When you look at what's happening in Massachusetts 220 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:29,679 Speaker 3: where the state and local authorities are refusing to take 221 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 3: out the bad guys, it tells you just how dangerous 222 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 3: it is for every America, no matter where you live. 223 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 2: And here is story number three. 224 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 3: It is a story that is shocking but becoming all 225 00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 3: too normal. Six people, including a USDA employee, have been 226 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 3: busted and what is being described as a sixty six 227 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:56,559 Speaker 3: million dollar food stamp fraud scheme. A USDA employee responsible 228 00:12:56,600 --> 00:13:02,440 Speaker 3: for identifying SNAP fraud allegedly sold hundreds of EBT numbers, 229 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 3: enabling over thirty six million in fraudulent SNAP redemptions at 230 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 3: unauthorized stores. Michael Keyo reportedly orchestrated network that supplied the 231 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 3: approximately one hundred and sixty unauthorized EBT terminals to stores 232 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 3: across the New York area to illegally process more than 233 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 3: thirty million in EBT transactions. This is now going down 234 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 3: in history as one of the largest food stamp frauds ever. 235 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 3: The USDA employee and five others that have been now 236 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 3: charged in the multimillion dollar food stamp fraud and bribery 237 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 3: scheme are being looked at for exactly what they are 238 00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:48,360 Speaker 3: con artists that had access within our government to pull 239 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:52,120 Speaker 3: this off. The question now is where else could this 240 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:55,559 Speaker 3: be done around the country and how much of your 241 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 3: tax dollars are being stolen by fraudulent terminals and fake 242 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 3: people and fake food stamps that are actually just going 243 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 3: to let people get extremely rich. There is one good thing. 244 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 3: It's very clear now that the Trump administration is going 245 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:16,120 Speaker 3: all in to find this type of waste, fraud and abuse. 246 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 3: And yes, Elon Musk may have moved on from what 247 00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 3: was always going to be a temporary role with DOGE, 248 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:27,720 Speaker 3: but it doesn't mean that the work is stopping anytime soon, 249 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 3: and this is a perfect example of it. 250 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 2: Thank you for listening to the forty seven Morning Update 251 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 2: with Ben Ferguson.
