1
00:00:01,760 --> 00:00:05,560
Speaker 1: My fellow Americans, get ready for an incredible future, because

2
00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:10,399
Speaker 1: the Golden Age of America has only just begun. It

3
00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:14,320
Speaker 1: will be like nothing that has ever been seen before.

4
00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:16,040
Speaker 1: Thank you, God, bless you.

5
00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:17,200
Speaker 2: And God bless.

6
00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:21,680
Speaker 3: Welcome to the forty seven Morning Updates Special Address to

7
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:23,520
Speaker 3: Congress Edition with Ben Ferguson.

8
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:27,320
Speaker 2: Welcome. It is the forty seven Morning Update Special Edition

9
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 2: after the State of the Union, Ben Ferguson with you,

10
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:34,000
Speaker 2: and there's just one story we're talking about. On today's

11
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:37,040
Speaker 2: Morning Update, the President of the United States of America

12
00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:40,839
Speaker 2: delivered one of the most effective and powerful addresses I

13
00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:44,160
Speaker 2: would argue in my lifetime. The President wove his early

14
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:47,479
Speaker 2: accomplishments into his agenda and his vision for the future.

15
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 2: And for years, failed politicians have said they needed legislation

16
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:55,400
Speaker 2: to secure the border, especially on the Democratic side. Well,

17
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:58,640
Speaker 2: President Trump showed it was not a matter of legislation,

18
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 2: but a matter of will, and the American people are

19
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:06,480
Speaker 2: clearly in favor of the lowest border crossing numbers that

20
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:10,480
Speaker 2: have ever been recorded in history. In February, the President

21
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 2: also focused on the issues that united the country around

22
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:16,480
Speaker 2: his campaign and the issues that will continue. As he

23
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:20,320
Speaker 2: put it, to bring the country together, such as lowering taxes,

24
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:25,880
Speaker 2: keeping men out of girls' sports, restoring American manufacturing, fighting

25
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:30,200
Speaker 2: crime in our cities, and restoring national security. President Trump

26
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 2: put a face to the policies in an emotional and

27
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 2: personal way, which is where the biggest shock of the

28
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:41,080
Speaker 2: night came, as Democrats put their face of anger and

29
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:44,920
Speaker 2: radical policies and positions that they want to divide the

30
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 2: country on display. Instead of standing for things that you

31
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:53,120
Speaker 2: would assume everyone could be in favor of, the Democrats

32
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:57,920
Speaker 2: refused to show support for lowering taxes, fighting child cancer,

33
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 2: capturing terraces, protecting girl athletes, law and order and law

34
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 2: enforcement officers. And that's just some of the highlights. So

35
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:12,639
Speaker 2: what did the President say? And maybe you didn't get

36
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,640
Speaker 2: to see the entire speech, we decide to put together

37
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 2: a montage of the biggest moments of the night. Here's

38
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 2: the President of the United States of America, Donald J. Trump,

39
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:23,359
Speaker 2: in his own words.

40
00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:27,919
Speaker 1: I returned to this chamber tonight to report that America's

41
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:32,359
Speaker 1: momentum is back, our spirit is back, our pride is back,

42
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 1: our confidence is back, and the American dream is surging

43
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,240
Speaker 1: bigger and better than ever before.

44
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 2: How we have ended.

45
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:44,360
Speaker 1: Weaponized government, where as an example, a sitting president is

46
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 1: allowed to viciously prosecute his political opponent like me. How

47
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 1: did that work out?

48
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:53,919
Speaker 3: Not to go?

49
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 1: Not to Within hours of taking the oath of office,

50
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,960
Speaker 1: I declared a national emergence on our southern border, and

51
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 1: I deployed the US military and Vorder patrol to repel

52
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:10,839
Speaker 1: the invasion of our country. And what a job they've done.

53
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 1: As a result, illegal border crossings last month were by

54
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 1: far the lowest ever recorded ever. To unshackle our economy,

55
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:30,120
Speaker 1: I have directed that for every one new regulation, ten

56
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 1: old regulations must be eliminated, just like I did in

57
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 1: my very successful first day, and I have stopped all

58
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 1: government censorship and brought back free speech in America.

59
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 2: It's back.

60
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 1: We've ended the tyranny of so called diversity, equity, and

61
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 1: inclusion policies all across the entire federal government, and indeed

62
00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 1: the private sector and our military and our country will

63
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:11,120
Speaker 1: be worked no longer. I also signed an executive order

64
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 1: to ban men from playing in women's sports, and in

65
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 1: the near future, I want to do what has not

66
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 1: been done in twenty four years balance the federal budget.

67
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:26,599
Speaker 2: We're going to balance it.

68
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:32,800
Speaker 1: One point three million people from ages one hundred and

69
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 1: fifty to one hundred and fifty nine and over one

70
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 1: hundred and thirty thousand people according to the Social Security

71
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:47,719
Speaker 1: databases our age over one hundred and sixty years old.

72
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 2: We have a.

73
00:04:49,920 --> 00:05:00,080
Speaker 1: Healthier country than I thought, Bobby, concluding to finish more

74
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,799
Speaker 1: than thirty nine people between the ages of two hundred

75
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:05,880
Speaker 1: and twenty and two hundred and twenty nine, one person

76
00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:08,040
Speaker 1: between the age of two hundred and forty and two

77
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:12,080
Speaker 1: hundred and forty nine, and one person is listed at

78
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:16,839
Speaker 1: three hundred and sixty years of age, more than one

79
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 1: hundred years, more than one hundred years older than our country.

80
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 1: But we're going to find out where that money is going,

81
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 1: and it's not going to be.

82
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,919
Speaker 2: Pretty so as the President has America behind him on

83
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 2: stopping waste, fraud, and abuse, which you heard him talking

84
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 2: about right there, Democrats were sitting on their hands. They

85
00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:40,720
Speaker 2: were angry. So let's go through the major list of

86
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:44,400
Speaker 2: all the things the Democrats refused to clap for, refuse

87
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,440
Speaker 2: to stand for. Many of them were actually not political things,

88
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,480
Speaker 2: but since the President was talking about it, they decided

89
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,799
Speaker 2: to say no to it, no matter what tax cuts

90
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 2: they are not in favor of that, and refuse to clap.

91
00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 2: The border being closed, something they claim they were in

92
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 2: favor of, and said that they were willing to pass

93
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 2: the legislation to quote get it done. They wouldn't clap

94
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 2: for that either. Even foster children finding hope and success

95
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 2: was something that apparently Democrats are not in favor of.

96
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,800
Speaker 2: And then there was the personal stories of children being

97
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 2: murdered by illegal immigrants and the parents being in the audience.

98
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 2: They wouldn't even clap for the family members. Police officers

99
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:31,279
Speaker 2: dying in the line of duty being honored and their

100
00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:35,479
Speaker 2: family something they would not stand to honor. Supporting workers

101
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:39,440
Speaker 2: including us still workers with something apparently they couldn't clap for.

102
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:44,360
Speaker 2: And even a child with brain cancer becoming an honorary

103
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:49,800
Speaker 2: Secret Service member was too much for the Democratic Party

104
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:55,000
Speaker 2: to say, we can stand with J. D. Daniels. The

105
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 2: President had no problem honoring him with a special surprise

106
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:00,240
Speaker 2: and this is what he said.

107
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 1: DJ Daniel. He is thirteen years old and he has

108
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 1: always dreamed of becoming a police officer. In twenty eighteen,

109
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 1: DJ was diagnosed with brain cancer. The doctors gave him

110
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 1: five months at most to live. That was more than

111
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 1: six years ago, and tonight, DJ, We're going to do

112
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:22,560
Speaker 1: you the biggest honor of them all. I am asking

113
00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 1: our new Secret Service Director, Sean Curran to officially make

114
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:31,640
Speaker 1: you an agent of the United States Secret Service.

115
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 2: The clapping that you heard there was the Republicans, not

116
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 2: the Democrats. There was even also a surprise for a

117
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 2: teenager who had lost a family member, a father, getting

118
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:54,760
Speaker 2: into West Point, something they couldn't clap for. Even the

119
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 2: men and women in uniform that traditionally do not clap

120
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 2: that are in attendance serving our arms knew that was

121
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,640
Speaker 2: a moment where it was okay for them to clap

122
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 2: for that teenager getting into West Point. Advancing our military

123
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 2: and defense structure was something Democrats couldn't support either. And then,

124
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 2: in a more shocking moment, as the President announced the

125
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 2: apprehension and extradition of an ISIS terrorists linked to the

126
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 2: twenty twenty one abbigate bombing in Afghanistan where thirteen Americans

127
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 2: lost their lives, the Democrats couldn't be bothered to clap

128
00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:34,680
Speaker 2: when he talked about catching that terrorist in the country.

129
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:38,480
Speaker 1: Tonight, An please to announce that we have just apprehended

130
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:43,360
Speaker 1: the top terrorists responsible for that atrocity, and he is

131
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,120
Speaker 1: right now on his way here to face the swift

132
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 1: sword of American justice.

133
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:54,000
Speaker 2: Yes, Republicans were excited because the President broke news in

134
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,439
Speaker 2: that moment. All the people in the chamber did not

135
00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 2: know that that had just happened, and there was genuine

136
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,880
Speaker 2: hearing for a moment knowing that that isis terrace was

137
00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 2: coming to America. That wasn't just on that issue. The

138
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 2: Democrats couldn't stand or clap. Bringing an American hostage home

139
00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 2: from Russia because it was done under Donald Trump's time

140
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 2: in office was something they couldn't clap for. And even

141
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:22,400
Speaker 2: the man who died because the Butler Rally assassination attempt,

142
00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 2: when the President honored him, Democrats refused to honor that man. So,

143
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 2: if you want to know where we are right now

144
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 2: with the forty seventh President of the United States of

145
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 2: America and his time in office, these are the issues

146
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:41,240
Speaker 2: the Democrats refused to stand for now. The Democratic Party,

147
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:44,200
Speaker 2: they clearly are out of touch with the American people.

148
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 2: And one thing that's for sure is what Donald Trump

149
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 2: said at the State of the Union is an agenda

150
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:53,960
Speaker 2: that is driven by the people. A mandate that the

151
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:57,120
Speaker 2: people gave him to work on all of these issues,

152
00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,319
Speaker 2: and I have a feeling the president's approval rating will

153
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:04,239
Speaker 2: go up significantly because of what he said to America.

154
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,880
