Speaker 1: This movement says, I don't need donors ads, I don't
Speaker 1: need consultants. I'm going right to the people with TikTok
Speaker 1: and grassroots and they've disintermediated the entire donor class, dis
Speaker 1: mediated the entire consulting class. And this is a revolution.
Speaker 1: And so this is going to happen again and again.
Speaker 1: The Democratic Party is now Blockbuster. These kids are Netflix.
Speaker 1: We are selling CDs out the trunk. This is a
Speaker 1: napster becoming Spotify.
Speaker 2: This after the night.
Speaker 3: If you're listening to the forty seven Morning Update with
Speaker 3: Ben ferguson.
Speaker 2: Good Friday morning, nice to have you with us on
Speaker 2: the forty seven Morning Update. And we've got one massive
Speaker 2: story for you. We have now learned that they were
Speaker 2: preparing to sue President Donald Trump before America even voted.
Speaker 2: And I'm talking about attorney generals that are Democrats. We
Speaker 2: now have the fallout in this story that no one
Speaker 2: is talking about. Now, before we get to that, I
Speaker 2: want to take a moment and talk to you about
Speaker 2: how you can have a real impact on your value
Speaker 2: in this country with a bill that you have and
Speaker 2: you pay every single month. Now, so many brands today
Speaker 2: claim they stand for American values, but most of the
Speaker 2: time it's all talk and no action. And that's what
Speaker 2: makes Patriot Mobile different and why I use them. For
Speaker 2: more than twelve years, Patriot Mobile has been living their
Speaker 2: values and standing in the gap for every American who
Speaker 2: believes that freedom is actually worth fighting for. Their business
Speaker 2: was founded on a simple conviction. If culture is being
Speaker 2: shaped through commerce, then Americans deserve a real conservative alternative.
Speaker 2: You may not realize just how liberal Big Mobile really
Speaker 2: is and how much money they give to organizations fighting
Speaker 2: against our values, and that is how Patriot Mobile became
Speaker 2: what they are today. They are Americas only Christian conservative
Speaker 2: wireless provider. They are for you premium priority nationwide service
Speaker 2: on any of the three major networks, with unlimited data plans,
Speaker 2: international roaming, and one hundred percent US based customer support.
Speaker 2: And with Patriot Mobile you can even have two separate
Speaker 2: networks on one phone, giving you unmatched coverage and peace
Speaker 2: of mind you can't get with other carriers. Now, besides
Speaker 2: the great tech, what truly is amazing about Patriot Mobile
Speaker 2: is this. Every year they contribute millions of dollars to
Speaker 2: organizations defending free speech, religious liberty, the sanctity of life,
Speaker 2: the Second Amendment in America's future. Now, Patriot Mobile isn't
Speaker 2: sitting on the sidelines. They're on the front lines fighting
Speaker 2: for our freedoms. So join the movement and get great covers. Today,
Speaker 2: I want to give you a free month of service
Speaker 2: as well. You can try Patriot Mobile. It's Patriot Mobile
Speaker 2: dot com slash ben forty seven, or you can call
Speaker 2: them nine seven to Patriot and if you use the
Speaker 2: promo code Ben forty seven, you'll get a free month
Speaker 2: of service. That's Patriotmobile dot com slash ben forty seven
Speaker 2: or nine seven to Patriot and you'll make a difference
Speaker 2: with every call you make. It's a forty seven morning
Speaker 2: Update and it starts right now.
Speaker 3: Story number one.
Speaker 2: I want you to understand the magnitude of what we're
Speaker 2: learning about the organized legal resistance to President Donald Trump.
Speaker 2: I'm talking about liberal ages conspiring to go after Donald
Speaker 2: Trump with law fair months before he became president. Yet again, now,
Speaker 2: Democrats not only they spend years telling Americans that Donald
Speaker 2: Trump was a threat to democracy, they also told you
Speaker 2: elections were sacred. They told you voters must be respected,
Speaker 2: and they told you that when the American people speak
Speaker 2: of the ballot box, especially if it's for a Democrat,
Speaker 2: then you must accept the results. But apparently Democrat attorney
Speaker 2: generals around the country they didn't see any of it
Speaker 2: that way. In fact, they were preparing for something very different.
Speaker 2: In the new shocking allegations. Months before Americans voted in
Speaker 2: the twenty twenty four President Joe election, Democrat attorney generals
Speaker 2: conspired together on how they would fight a second Trump
Speaker 2: administration in court if he won.
Speaker 1: Now, I want you to.
Speaker 2: Think about the significance of that. Donald Trump hadn't won yet,
Speaker 2: Kamala Harris hadn't lost yet. In fact, Joe Biden was
Speaker 2: still the nominee. The American people hadn't cast their ballots
Speaker 2: even early voting yet, and Trump hadn't even taken the
Speaker 2: oath of office. Now, not only that, but Donald Trump
Speaker 2: hadn't signed a single executive order because Joe Biden was
Speaker 2: still the president. And Democrat Attorney general said, hold on
Speaker 2: a second, we got to get ready to tie up
Speaker 2: Trump if he wins with a full out legal war.
Speaker 2: Now this isn't speculation. After the fact, we now know
Speaker 2: this is what was really going on. The Democrat Attorney
Speaker 2: General's Association itself later highlighted reporting the Democrat governors and
Speaker 2: attorney generals had spent months strategizing about how to respond
Speaker 2: to a potential second Trump administration. For example, the New
Speaker 2: York Attorney General, Letitia James has said that attorney generals
Speaker 2: began meeting before the election to discuss fighting Donald Trump
Speaker 2: in his second term. And after Trump won, according to
Speaker 2: subsequent reporting, now Democrat ages dramatically intensified their coordination. In
Speaker 2: other words, they were ready, and boy did they use it.
Speaker 2: Donald Trump. They said, you know what, he takes office
Speaker 2: January twentieth, and the lawsuits, well, they started flying, one
Speaker 2: after another, executive orders, federal funding, immigration, environmental regulations, government restructuring,
Speaker 2: federal employees, education, health policy, even elections and tariffs. Whatever
Speaker 2: the policy fight was, the Democrat attorney generals turned to
Speaker 2: the courtroom and they made that into their battlefield. And
Speaker 2: by April the first of twenty twenty six, the Democrat
Speaker 2: Attorney General's Association proudly announced something extraordinary. Democrat Attorney generals
Speaker 2: had collectively filed their one hundredth lawsuit against the Trump administration.
Speaker 2: This is lawfare, and they were celebrating it. One hunderd lawsuits,
Speaker 2: not in four years, just over a year into Trump's
Speaker 2: second term, and their own political organization celebrated it. And
Speaker 2: by the way, they were wasting your tax dollars because
Speaker 2: you're the one paying the legal fees. So I think
Speaker 2: Americans are entitled to ask this question, at what point
Speaker 2: does a legitimate constitutional oversight become organized political lawfare, because
Speaker 2: the attorney generals absolutely have a constitutional role if a
Speaker 2: president exceeds his authorities state to have the right to
Speaker 2: challenge the federal government. Now, Republican attorney generals did that
Speaker 2: with Barack Obama, and they did it with Joe Biden.
Speaker 2: But the difference here is this Democrat attorney generals did
Speaker 2: it during Trump's first administration. That is the part of
Speaker 2: the American system. But this is where it becomes so
Speaker 2: much different. The second time, they were already conspiring. They
Speaker 2: were already preparing the legal machinery before Trump had even
Speaker 2: been elected, before you had even been able to cast
Speaker 2: your vote. They didn't know what actions President Trump would
Speaker 2: ultimately take. It didn't matter. They didn't know precisely what
Speaker 2: regulations would be issued. Again, it didn't matter. They didn't
Speaker 2: know which executive orders would survive the internal policy process
Speaker 2: and yet again it didn't matter. They knew one thing.
Speaker 2: If Trump won, they were going to be ready to
Speaker 2: sue him, to stop him in court on anything he did.
Speaker 2: In other words, they said, if the American people choose Trump,
Speaker 2: we're going to undermine the will of the people. We're
Speaker 2: going to undermine their vote, We're going to undermine the country.
Speaker 2: We're going to undermine free and fair elections. We're going
Speaker 2: to undermine it all to stop the agenda that the
Speaker 2: American people actually voted for. That is what all of
Speaker 2: this coordination was really all about, which brings me to
Speaker 2: the big point here. This wasn't merely a reaction to
Speaker 2: something Trump did. This was a setup of a resistance
Speaker 2: infrastructure weaponizing our government through the Democratic Party and the
Speaker 2: attorney generals to stop the will of the people. Democrats
Speaker 2: spent four years saying Republicans need to respect election results. Okay, well,
Speaker 2: Donald Trump won the election in twenty twenty four, he
Speaker 2: wins the electoral college, who's the popular vote, Republicans win
Speaker 2: control of Congress. The voters gave Trump another term, they
Speaker 2: gave him a mandate. And what do they do. The
Speaker 2: Democratic Attorney general said, we're waiting at the courthouse door,
Speaker 2: and we're going to stop everything you want to do
Speaker 2: that the American people voted for. Now, Democrat ags have
Speaker 2: won injunctions and other favorable rulings in many of these
Speaker 2: cases early on. Much of it, by the way, is
Speaker 2: then overturned by the other courts after they get out
Speaker 2: of the activist judge's way. And then Democrats are now
Speaker 2: saying they're never going to stop.
Speaker 4: This is their new policy.
Speaker 2: They want to freeze anybody out who is elected by
Speaker 2: the American people they don't agree with. I want you
Speaker 2: to hear what Senator Ted Cruz had to say about
Speaker 2: all of this, and what a threat this is truly
Speaker 2: to this country and our democracy in general. That's who
Speaker 2: he is. Finally, I want to get to this other story,
Speaker 2: and it deals with ags conspiring to go after after
Speaker 2: Donald Trump's months ahead of his reelect. Let's tell people
Speaker 2: what we found out.
Speaker 4: Well, another story that broke its headlined Democrat ags planned
Speaker 4: to sue Trump nearly seven months before he was re elected.
Speaker 4: There it is nearly two dozen state attorneys general banded
Speaker 4: together as early as April twenty twenty four to plot
Speaker 4: litigation against President Donald Trump, long before he was reelected,
Speaker 4: According to a confidential document attained by The Center Square,
Speaker 4: The document was signed approximately three months before President Joe
Speaker 4: Biden exited from the race and Vice President Kamala Harris
Speaker 4: became the Democratic nominee for president. It was signed nearly
Speaker 4: seven months before Trump was re elected by two point
Speaker 4: three million more votes than Harris, almost nine months before
Speaker 4: he was inaugurated. State attorneys general has sued the Trump
Speaker 4: administration nearly one hundred times since January twenty twenty five.
Speaker 4: The coordinated effort appears to have a nickname quote the
Speaker 4: Project for Federal Accountability. Not all of the lawsuits have
Speaker 4: been joined by each attorney general, and some offices take
Speaker 4: a lead on different cases. At the last count California
Speaker 4: Attorney General Rob Bonta has participated in eighty two lawsuits.
Speaker 4: Colorado Attorney General Phil Wiser has joined at least seventy
Speaker 4: five lawsuits. Washington State Attorney General Brown has joined seventy lawsuits.
Speaker 4: Arizona Attorney General Chris Mays has joined forty six lawsuits.
Speaker 4: At a news conference on Tuesday, Montes stated the lawsuits
Speaker 4: are a political yeah right. He announced the lawsuits have
Speaker 4: cost California taxpayers nineteen million dollars and he will continue
Speaker 4: to file them as needed. If Trump doesn't want to
Speaker 4: get sued, all he has to do is follow the law.
Speaker 4: Bonta said, I don't think our cases are likely to
Speaker 4: be dismissed. Trump shows no sign of slowing down, so
Speaker 4: we will continue to sue him. This is an example
Speaker 4: where the deep state in the Democrat machine, they like
Speaker 4: to talk about we support democracy. They beat their chest,
Speaker 4: we're four democracy. Yeah, today's democrats hate democracy. And I
Speaker 4: don't mean to be provocative in that statement, but if
Speaker 4: they actually respected democracy, they would say, you know what,
Speaker 4: the voters get to choose who the president's gonna be.
Speaker 4: We're gonna have an election November twenty twenty four, and
Speaker 4: they're going to choose either Donald Trump or initially it
Speaker 4: was Joe Biden. But then when they realized Joe Biden
Speaker 4: was deep into dimension was no longer capable of winning,
Speaker 4: they threw Joe Biden overboard. They tossed him into a
Speaker 4: shark pit and immediately inserted Kamala Harris, who nobody had
Speaker 4: voted for. YEP, and when Trump won, they do not care.
Speaker 4: They're using law fair to destroy him. And understand these
Speaker 4: Democrat ags joined together to do so seven months before
Speaker 4: he was elected president. Because they don't care what the
Speaker 4: voters say. They want power and they're willing to abuse
Speaker 4: the system to get it.
Speaker 2: How big of a deal is this moving into the midterms,
Speaker 2: It's a massive deal. You need to know exactly who's
Speaker 2: on the ballot. You need to understand what the Democrats
Speaker 2: are going to continue to do moving forward. They made
Speaker 2: it clear lawfare is part of their strategy. They've made
Speaker 2: it clear that they're going to continue to elect and
Speaker 2: they're going to continue to re elect any individual that's
Speaker 2: willing to use their position of power to silence and
Speaker 2: shut down the American people and their will. Make no mistake,
Speaker 2: this isn't just an attack on Donald Trump. This is
Speaker 2: an attack on the American voter. And what the Democrats
Speaker 2: are now saying is if an American voter votes for
Speaker 2: someone they don't like, not only will they go after
Speaker 2: that person, but they will go after their agenda using lawfair.
Speaker 2: They will do whatever they can to stop the will
Speaker 2: of the American people. This is so much bigger than
Speaker 2: Donald Trump. This is about a man Erica's freedom and
Speaker 2: democracy and the will of the people being silenced by
Speaker 2: radicals on the left who are abusing their power each
Speaker 2: and every day.
