And finally, Donald Trump says it's time 58 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 2: to make a deal with Iran. He would rather make 59 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:43,959 Speaker 2: that deal than well go to war. I'll have the 60 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 2: latest on the threat against Iran, especially with their nuclear program. 61 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 2: It's the forty seven Morning Update and it starts right now. 62 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 2: Story number one, Cutting waste, fraud, and abuse is clearly 63 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,640 Speaker 2: a theme of the Trump administration. Exposing it is the 64 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 2: hard part, but it seems that Elon Musk and Doge 65 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 2: are having success every single day. Their latest success comes 66 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 2: as an even bigger shock to American tax payers. We 67 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 2: have now found out that Doge says that FEMA sent 68 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 2: fifty nine million dollars in payments just last week to 69 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 2: hotels in New York City that are housing illegal aliens. 70 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 2: The Department of Government Efficiency uncovering that fifty nine million 71 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 2: dollar FEMA payment from just last week to house all 72 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 2: of these legal aliens and what they described as quote, 73 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 2: luxury hotels in New York City. Now, to be clear, 74 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 2: there are quite a few Americans that are suffering from 75 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 2: natural disasters. They are not receiving fifty nine million dollars 76 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:50,680 Speaker 2: from FEMA for luxury hotels, whether it's in California with 77 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 2: the wildfires or the flooding that we saw after a 78 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 2: hurricane hit the East coast all the way down to Tennessee. Now, 79 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 2: this is what we've also found out about these payments 80 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 2: and serious corruption involved with them. The payments come after 81 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 2: the Biden administration had claimed that FEMA was not using 82 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 2: funds to support illegal immigrants. Quote it's just categorically false. 83 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 2: It is not true. That was the statement from the 84 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 2: former White House pres Secretary Jean Pierre that she said 85 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:24,039 Speaker 2: over and over again, including in October when she was 86 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:29,160 Speaker 2: asked about are FEMA funds going to support illegal aliens. 87 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 2: Republicans have argued that FEMA did not have enough money 88 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 2: in the fall to help victims of the hurricane in 89 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:38,280 Speaker 2: North Carolina and in Tennessee. The President Joe Biden's Apartment 90 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 2: of Homeland Security claimed those reports were quote completely false, 91 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:46,039 Speaker 2: and noted the agency had enough money to fund relief 92 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 2: efforts and the FEMA Emergency Food and Shelter Program, which 93 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,359 Speaker 2: the Biden administration authorized in late twenty twenty two to 94 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:57,240 Speaker 2: respond to the migrant crisis. Well, now we know they 95 00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:02,159 Speaker 2: were lying to every single American, every taxpayer. Musk, who 96 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:05,239 Speaker 2: is leading the Doge initiative to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, 97 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 2: said the THEEMA payment violated the law and quote a 98 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:14,480 Speaker 2: clawback demand will be made today to recoup those taxpayer 99 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 2: funds now. He also tweeted out more about exactly how 100 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 2: this went down, saying, the DOGE team just discovered that 101 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 2: the FEMA payments were sent last week fifty nine million 102 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:28,919 Speaker 2: in total to quote, luxury hotels in New York City 103 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 2: to specifically house illegal immigrants. Sending this money violate the 104 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:37,600 Speaker 2: law and is a gross in subordination to the President's 105 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:40,839 Speaker 2: executive order. What this means is the deep state is 106 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:44,360 Speaker 2: still fighting back against President Donald Trump. They knew they 107 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 2: were not allowed to make this payment and they did 108 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 2: it anyway. He then said that money is meant for 109 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:53,240 Speaker 2: American disaster relief and instead is being spent on high 110 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 2: end hotels for illegals. The other question everyone should be 111 00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 2: asking now is who's getting the kickbacks and who got 112 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 2: these hotels hooked up with these massive payments, and how 113 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:06,480 Speaker 2: long have they been receiving the payments, and how much 114 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:10,280 Speaker 2: money are we talking about overall that went to illegal 115 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:14,719 Speaker 2: immigrants now. President Donald Trump announced this executive order to 116 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 2: improve FEMA's efficiency, priorities, and competence, including evaluating whether FEMA's 117 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 2: bureaucracy in disaster response ultimately harms the agency's ability to 118 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 2: successfully respond. 119 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 1: The executive order reads. 120 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 2: It has lost mission focus and diverting limited staff and 121 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 2: resources to support missions beyond its scope and authority, spending 122 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 2: well over a billion dollars to welcome illegal aliens. The 123 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 2: order added, Trump suggested on January the twenty fourth, just 124 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 2: four days after he was sworn in, the quote, maybe 125 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 2: getting rid of FEMA and instead permitting the federal government 126 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 2: to send funds to the state to deploy to disaster 127 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,480 Speaker 2: relief would be a better use of our tax dollars. 128 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 2: President then said, I also will be executive order to 129 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:05,919 Speaker 2: begin the process of fundamentally reforming and overhauling FEMA or 130 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 2: maybe getting rid of FEMA. I think, frankly, FEMA is 131 00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 2: not good. Well, now we know that FEMA said, we 132 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 2: don't care what you say, mister President, we are going 133 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 2: to send to people that own these hotels massive payments 134 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 2: of fifty nine million to house illegal immigrants, putting illegal 135 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 2: immigrants ahead of American citizens. Question now, is how quick 136 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 2: will the present move to shut down FEMA In response 137 00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 2: to this, We'll keep you. 138 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 5: Posted now story number two. 139 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 1: If there's anything you. 140 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 2: Can take away from the Trump administration, it's that very 141 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 2: clearly they are working twenty four to seven for the 142 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 2: American people, whether it's protecting your tax dollars or dealing 143 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 2: with issues of national security and foreign policy. Donald Trump 144 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:55,080 Speaker 2: has a very new and very real demand when it 145 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 2: comes to Hamas. He is demanding that they free all 146 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 2: the hostages by Saturday or the ceasefire deal is off 147 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 2: and Israel can unleash Holy Hell the present in his 148 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 2: own words, saying this from the Oval Office, Well. 149 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 4: I would say this, and I'm going to let that 150 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:14,840 Speaker 4: because it's Israel's decision. 151 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 3: But as far as I'm concerned. 152 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 4: If all of the hostages aren't returned by Saturday at 153 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 4: twelve o'clock, I think it's an appropriate time. I would say, 154 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 4: cancel it, and all bets are off and let hell 155 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 4: break out. 156 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 3: I'd say they. 157 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 4: Ought to be returned by twelve o'clock on Saturday. And 158 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 4: if they're not returned, all of them, not in drips 159 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 4: and drafts, not two and one and three and four 160 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 4: and two Saturday at twelve o'clock, and after that, I 161 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 4: would say, all hell is going to break out. 162 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 2: All hell is going to break out. President Trump issuing 163 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:53,480 Speaker 2: this ultimatum to Hamas saying, you got a week or less. 164 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 2: He said it on Monday, you must release all the 165 00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 2: remaining Israeli hostages and American hostages from Gaza by nuone 166 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 2: on Saturday, or. 167 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:02,199 Speaker 1: The ceasefire deal is over. 168 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,960 Speaker 2: This is a threat that President Donald Trump has made 169 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 2: that Joe Biden didn't make in well over a year. 170 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 2: When he says all bets are off, let hell break out, 171 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:15,320 Speaker 2: it's very clear that the President saying I am supporting 172 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 2: Israel fighting back and unleashing Holy hell on you. The 173 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 2: President made his announcement why after Hamas said it would 174 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 2: delay the release of the hostages in the first phase 175 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:33,839 Speaker 2: of the six week ceasfire deal, citing supported Israeli violations. 176 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:34,959 Speaker 1: They claim of the deal. 177 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 2: In Israelis speculate that Hamas had been badly stung by 178 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 2: the global reaction to the site of an emancipated Israeli 179 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 2: hostage being released on Saturday. The president himself said that 180 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 2: they reminded him of Holocaust survivors after the Second World War. 181 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 2: Times of Israel reported this way. US President Donald Trump 182 00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 2: says the Godza seasfire and hostage release deal should be 183 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 2: canceled if all the hostages are not released by twelve 184 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 2: on Saturday noon. Trump said in December that there would 185 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 2: be quote all hell to pay if Hamas did not 186 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 2: release the hostages by January the twentieth. Now, the current 187 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:16,840 Speaker 2: hostage deal was reached in January, and Trump appeared to 188 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:20,559 Speaker 2: accept the Biden administration's plan to have the hostages released 189 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 2: in a multi phase process. There are seventy three hostages 190 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 2: still in Gaza, seventeen of whom are still slay to 191 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,600 Speaker 2: be released in the first phase. Not all of them 192 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:37,200 Speaker 2: are alive, and dozens would have remained in captivity until 193 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:40,960 Speaker 2: a second phase of the agreement. Now the President saying 194 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 2: I want them all home. Now, we'll have to wait 195 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 2: and see what the next move is by Hamas, but 196 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 2: it's clear that the President is not willing to wait 197 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 2: any longer. 198 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:53,320 Speaker 5: And lastly, story number three. 199 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:56,960 Speaker 2: It is very clear that Donald Trump's foreign policy is 200 00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 2: one that he is willing to make changes, especially when 201 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 2: it comes to different countries. The way he treats Hamas, 202 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 2: for example, is very different than the way he's talking 203 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:09,439 Speaker 2: about Iran right now. How do we know this because 204 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 2: of a sit down interview that the President has done 205 00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,800 Speaker 2: talking about Iran and saying he's ready to make a deal. 206 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 1: It's also very clear that the. 207 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:21,319 Speaker 2: President is not going to let Iran get a nuclear weapon. 208 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:23,959 Speaker 3: Take a listen, they went down to nothing. Now they 209 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 3: are up to a tremendous amount of money. I think 210 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 3: there's a deal there in Iran. Yeah, I think we're 211 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 3: going to make a deal in I Run. I think 212 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 3: I would rather okay. 213 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 6: And you know, there are a lot of people think 214 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 6: that we are going to attack or Israel or with 215 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 6: our blessing or. 216 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 3: Is what Israel needs us? Everybody needs us. 217 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 6: We have the weapons, we have the strength, We're very strong, 218 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 6: I rebuilt on militia, and people forget I rebuilt on now. 219 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:50,120 Speaker 6: They shouldn't have given a lot to Afghanistan, which they did. 220 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 3: They gave a lot. There was no reason for that. 221 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 3: But we're very strong. 222 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 6: We have things that nobody else has, so they need us. 223 00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 3: But everyone thinks Israel, with our. 224 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 6: Health or or approval, we'll go in and bomb the 225 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 6: hell out of them. 226 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:05,400 Speaker 3: I would prefer that not happened. 227 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,839 Speaker 6: I'd much rather see a deal with Iran where we 228 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:12,320 Speaker 6: can do a deal, supervise, check it, inspect it, and 229 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 6: then blow it up, or just make sure that there's 230 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:15,520 Speaker 6: no more nuclear there. 231 00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 3: We just a better deal than the Obama nuclear deal. 232 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 6: Well that there was the dumbest elle by the way, 233 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 6: that would have expired by now. That was a road 234 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 6: to a nuclear weapon. It was a short term deal. 235 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:27,920 Speaker 6: You can make a deal with just a few years 236 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 6: on it. That deal would be expired by now, think 237 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:32,439 Speaker 6: of it, and they would have a. 238 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:34,320 Speaker 3: Legal right to have a nuclear weapon. 239 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 6: You can't allow them to have a Nukeluban, but there's 240 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 6: two ways of stopping them with bombs or with a 241 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,679 Speaker 6: written piece of paper. And I'd much rather do a 242 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,560 Speaker 6: deal that's a deal that's not going to hurt them, 243 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,600 Speaker 6: and I think they wanted to. I think that Iran 244 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 6: is very concerned. I think that Iran is very frightened, 245 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 6: to be honest with you, because the defense is pretty 246 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 6: much gone. Maybe they get to trying to get new 247 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 6: defense as we speak, you know, they're meaning air defense, 248 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 6: but the defense is largely gone. 249 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 3: They've had some very bad moments. 250 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 6: The whole thing with the Pages was a disaster for them. 251 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 3: The Pages, you know what I'm talking about. It was a. 252 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 6: Horrible thing, but it was, you know, knocked out a 253 00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 6: lot of leadership like nobody's ever seen before. But I 254 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:19,080 Speaker 6: think of Iran is very nervous. I think they're scared. 255 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 6: I think Iran would love to make a deal, and 256 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 6: I would love to make a deal with them without 257 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 6: bombing them. 258 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 2: This is making Liberals' heads explode. They want to blame 259 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 2: Donald Trump is a guy that's going to get us into. 260 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:30,680 Speaker 1: War War three. 261 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 2: But it's very clear the presents willing to make a deal. 262 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,440 Speaker 2: That's the question that everyone asked at the very beginning. 263 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 2: Could Donald Trump make a deal? Well, he's walking up 264 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 2: to Iran right now saying let's make a deal instead 265 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 2: of US having a major war. The President says he 266 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 2: believes he will get that deal done. And there's many 267 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 2: in the foreign policy arena that believe that Iran is 268 00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:55,439 Speaker 2: willing to now make a real deal for a long 269 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 2: term stability with an Iran nuclear program. And if it 270 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 2: doesn't happen, and it's also sag, he is going to 271 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 2: make sure they don't get a nuclear weapon. So it's 272 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 2: up to a Ran now what happens, but the President 273 00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:09,240 Speaker 2: clearly is sag. 274 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 1: Let's talk. 275 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:13,000 Speaker 5: Thank you for listening to the forty seven Morning Update 276 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 5: with Ben Ferguson.
