1 00:00:01,840 --> 00:00:05,440 Speaker 1: Dosee also discovered that one point three million Aliens are 2 00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:10,600 Speaker 1: now receiving medicaid. Millions received driver's licenses, some registered to vote, 3 00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:12,840 Speaker 1: and dough says some actually did vote. 4 00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:16,840 Speaker 2: You're listening to the forty seven Morning Update with Ben Ferguson. 5 00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:19,360 Speaker 3: Good Wednesday morning, Ben Ferguson with you. It's nice to 6 00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:21,599 Speaker 3: have you on the forty seven Morning Update. And here 7 00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:25,639 Speaker 3: the three big stories we're covering. First up, Doge finds 8 00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:30,320 Speaker 3: a shocking scheme for legal immigrants to take your jobs 9 00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:34,520 Speaker 3: with a massive amount given so security numbers. We'll expose 10 00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:36,680 Speaker 3: all of this for you and why you should be 11 00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:39,839 Speaker 3: so angry about it in just a moment. Also, Donald 12 00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:44,080 Speaker 3: Trump says to China FAFO, it's official a tariff of 13 00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:45,600 Speaker 3: one hundred and four percent. 14 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:47,919 Speaker 4: So what happens next will explain that. 15 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:51,000 Speaker 3: And finally, you may remember the COVID mandate in the 16 00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:54,320 Speaker 3: military is no longer a thing. Well now the government 17 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 3: official behind that mandate has been fired. It's the forty 18 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:00,960 Speaker 3: seven Morning Update, and it's arts right now. 19 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 5: Story number one. 20 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:04,679 Speaker 3: Let me start by saying, the story you're about to 21 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:07,760 Speaker 3: hear is one that you need to share everywhere you 22 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:11,839 Speaker 3: can on social media. Make sure you grab this podcast, 23 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:14,479 Speaker 3: hit that share button right now and put it up 24 00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 3: wherever you have family or friends, or text it to them, 25 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 3: because this is a story that every American needs to 26 00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 3: know about. Elon Musk and the Dogs team recently exposed 27 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:30,639 Speaker 3: how rampant immigration fraud and government corruption became so bad 28 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 3: under the Biden administration. 29 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:34,080 Speaker 4: Specifically, they showed. 30 00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:38,959 Speaker 3: How aliens were getting asylum can receive quote work authorization 31 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 3: and with it an automatic Social Security number, which enables 32 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 3: them to obtain drivers' licenses, commit voter fraud, and receive 33 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 3: other government benefits. This already sounds alarming, but the truth 34 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 3: apparently is even worse than that. Under the current US regulations, 35 00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 3: asylum applicants can apply for a work author of document 36 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 3: with the Department of Home Insecurity five months after their 37 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:10,640 Speaker 3: asylum application is filed, rather than five months after it's granted. 38 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 3: There's no filing fee for asylum applications, meaning there is 39 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 3: literally no cost involved in applying. This creates a huge 40 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:24,640 Speaker 3: incentive for inadmissible aliens to file fraudulent asylum applications to 41 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 3: gain US work authorization, and that means takeaway jobs from 42 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 3: American citizens just like you and while adjudicating the asylum 43 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 3: application can take the Department of Homeland Security or the 44 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:43,360 Speaker 3: Justice Department literally years to complete. The DHS prioritizes granting 45 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:50,400 Speaker 3: employment authorization applications, averaging mere months to complete such applications. 46 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:55,360 Speaker 3: In other words, individuals can fraudulently apply for asylum and 47 00:02:55,480 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 3: then receive work authorization shortly thereafter, safe in the knowledge 48 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 3: that their asylum application may not be decided for literally years. 49 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 3: And that is a loophole that was set up clearly 50 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,359 Speaker 3: to allow for massive amounts of illegal immigrants to come 51 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,240 Speaker 3: into this country. Here is how the story was explained 52 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 3: on Fox Business with Stuart Varney. 53 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 1: Dosh has found that Immigration gave a work authorization document 54 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 1: to illegals just five months after they filed for asylum. 55 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 1: That document allowed them to work while they waited to 56 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 1: hear whether their asylum requested being accepted or denied. So 57 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 1: they could work as an illegal. Knowing it would take 58 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 1: years before their case was heard, the Immigration Department mailed 59 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: them a social security number, no interview, no proof of 60 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 1: identity to put it in the mail. Here's your number 61 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty one, does says two hundred and seventy 62 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 1: thousand new aliens were issued Social Security numbers five hundred 63 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 1: ninety thousand twenty twenty two, nine hundred and sixty four 64 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 1: thousand twenty twenty three, and two point one million in 65 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 1: twenty four, right before Biden left office. Doze also disc 66 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 1: covered that one point three million aliens are now receiving medicaid, 67 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 1: millions receive driver's licenses, some registered to vote, and does 68 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 1: says some actually did vote. Try and square that against 69 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:16,159 Speaker 1: Democrat claims that Musk is destroying social Security and cutting Medicaid. 70 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:19,000 Speaker 1: He's not destroying, He's weeding out people. It don't qualify 71 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 1: who is really guilty of misinformation in this case, it 72 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 1: is not Elon Musk. 73 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 3: Now, the question that everyone should be asking is number one, 74 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 3: how is this not criminal? And how are the Democrats 75 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 3: able to get away with this? Costing you hundreds of 76 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:39,039 Speaker 3: billions of dollars at minimum? Now, if you think this 77 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 3: is the only thing that Elon Musk is working on, 78 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:45,600 Speaker 3: I hate to tell you you're wrong. Another example of just 79 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 3: how much waste, fraud, and abuse there are is this 80 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:54,600 Speaker 3: federal agencies spending billions of dollars on furniture and you're 81 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 3: the one paying for it. 82 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,720 Speaker 6: Since physical year twenty twenty one, executive agencies have spent 83 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 6: more and four point six billion dollars on furniture alone. 84 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,480 Speaker 6: That amount could buy nine point two million American families 85 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 6: a modest, five hundred dollar kitchen table. During the peak 86 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 6: years of the COVID emergency, from twenty twenty to twenty 87 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 6: twenty two, agency spent three point three billion on furniture. 88 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 6: Even as work migrated to zoom, the SEC managed to 89 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 6: spend seven hundred thousand dollars furnishing a single conference room 90 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:27,159 Speaker 6: in New York, and social distancing guidelines failed to keep 91 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 6: even the Centers for Disease Control from buying solar powered 92 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:34,359 Speaker 6: picnic tables with charging ports that, by their owned rules, 93 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:38,040 Speaker 6: should have sat unoccupied. And an added burden for taxpayers 94 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 6: is that many spaces are on long term disrepair. As 95 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 6: we mentioned before, federal buildings need three hundred and seventy 96 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 6: billion dollars in fixes. 97 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 4: So yes, you heard that correct. 98 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 3: Federal agencies put four point six billion worth of taxpayer 99 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 3: dollars towards furniture in the past four years, even though 100 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:58,160 Speaker 3: the vast majority of staffers were working from home. 101 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 4: How is this also not criminal? Well? 102 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,280 Speaker 3: Doeg is looking into all of it and saving American 103 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 3: taxpayers billions and billions of dollars in the process. 104 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 5: Now story number two. 105 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 3: President Trump made it very clear on Liberation Day that 106 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:18,200 Speaker 3: tariffs were going to go into effect on countries that 107 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:21,320 Speaker 3: were taking advantage of America. There was no bigger abuser 108 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 3: than China. And then China made a historic mistake by 109 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 3: retaliating against the United States. Well, you can file this 110 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,920 Speaker 3: yet again under FAFO, and when it comes to Donald Trump, 111 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 3: he's not messing around. President Donald Trump has now implemented, 112 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 3: at this exact moment, a comprehensive tariff strategy, increasing duties 113 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 3: on imports from numerous countries, with China now facing the 114 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 3: highest levee at one hundred and four percent. This move 115 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 3: is part of the administration's efforts, they say, to address 116 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 3: trade and balances and bolster domestic manufacturing in this country, 117 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 3: not just because we need to put American workers first, 118 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 3: but also because of the issue of national security, especially 119 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 3: when it comes to China. Now here are the key 120 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 3: points you need to understand about the China tariffs. The 121 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 3: one hundred and four percent tariff on Chinese imports aims 122 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 3: to pressure Beijing into addressing the trade practices deemed unfair 123 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 3: by the Trump administration. President Trump's express openness by the 124 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 3: way to negotiate and customize bilateral trade deals with countries 125 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 3: that are seeking tariff relief, emphasizing that current tariffs will 126 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 3: remain until trade imbalances and unfair practices are addressed. This 127 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 3: is something he's made very clear He's not willing to 128 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 3: compromise on this, especially when it comes to China. Now, 129 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 3: the global impact is what you also need to know about. 130 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 3: Beyond China, there are other nations, including US allies such 131 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 3: as Japan, South Korea, and the European Union. They're subject 132 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 3: to tariffs ranging from seventeen to twenty five. These measures 133 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 3: are intended to encourage fair trade practices and reduce the 134 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 3: US trade deficit. 135 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 4: Well, guess what's happened. 136 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 3: More than seventy countries have now reached out and are 137 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 3: sending delegations to the United States of America to meet 138 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 3: with the Trump administration to make a deal, which is 139 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 3: exactly what Donald Trump said was going to happen. The 140 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 3: administration asserts that these tarists will incentivize companies to relocate 141 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 3: production to the United States and thereby revitalizing domestic industries 142 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 3: and creating jobs, but also creating jobs that are important 143 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 3: in manufacturing areas that deal with national security. President Trump 144 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:44,679 Speaker 3: described these measures as a declaration of economic independence, underscoring 145 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 3: his commitment to reshaping international trade dynamics in favor of 146 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 3: American interest. Now, while these terrorists have introduced volatility in 147 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 3: the global markets, the administration maintains that they are a 148 00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 3: necessary step towards achieving long term economic benefits of the 149 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 3: United States of America. Another way of putting it is 150 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:07,319 Speaker 3: this way, what goes down in the market must come 151 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,839 Speaker 3: back up. And that is what the President is saying 152 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 3: the White House talking about China and this one hundred 153 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,360 Speaker 3: and four percent tariff. And here's what was said in 154 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:16,560 Speaker 3: the White House briefing room. 155 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:20,280 Speaker 4: You mentioned this seventy countries or so. I'm curious, though, 156 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 4: under what conditions. 157 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:24,079 Speaker 6: At this point when President Trump talked to President Shew 158 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 6: about tariffs. 159 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 7: Well, look, I just spoke to the President about this, 160 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:28,839 Speaker 7: and he believes that China wants to make a. 161 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 2: Deal with the United States. 162 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:32,200 Speaker 7: He believes China has to make a deal with the 163 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 7: United States. It was a mistake for China to retaliate 164 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:39,200 Speaker 7: the President. When America is punched, he punches back harder. 165 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,440 Speaker 7: That's why there will be one hundred and four percent 166 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 7: tariff's going into effect on China tonight at midnight. But 167 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 7: the President believes that she and China want to make 168 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 7: a deal, they just don't know how to get that started. 169 00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 7: And the President also wanted me to tell all of 170 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 7: you that if China reaches out to make a deal, 171 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,560 Speaker 7: he'll be incredibly gracious, but he's going to do what's 172 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:57,680 Speaker 7: best for the American people. 173 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 3: Going to do what is best for the American people. 174 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 3: So if you want to know what the present's mindset is, 175 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:07,680 Speaker 3: it is putting Americans yet again, first before other nations 176 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 3: that take advantage of all of us. 177 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 5: And lastly, story number three. 178 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 3: It will go down in history as one of the 179 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:18,840 Speaker 3: worst moves ever made by any administration, especially when it 180 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 3: came to military readiness. Between twenty twenty one and twenty 181 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 3: twenty three, approximately eight thousand, two hundred plus US military 182 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:32,800 Speaker 3: service members were discharged for refusing to comply with the 183 00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:39,200 Speaker 3: Department of Defense's radical COVID nineteen vaccine mandate. This figure 184 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 3: encompasses personnel from all branches of the military, well in 185 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:46,800 Speaker 3: January of twenty twenty five, President Donald Trump signed an 186 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 3: executive order directing the reinstatement of these service members with 187 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:55,439 Speaker 3: full back pay and benefits. As of April of twenty 188 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:57,960 Speaker 3: twenty five, the Army has re enlisted over twenty three 189 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 3: soldiers who were previously dis charge for vaccine refusal. Other 190 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:06,679 Speaker 3: branches are actively reaching out to eligible former service members 191 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 3: to facilitate the return to service. Well, we now know 192 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 3: who is behind that decision that clearly discriminated against your 193 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 3: right to choose what you're going to do with your vaccines. 194 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:25,959 Speaker 3: A senior CIA official was the one who facilitated Biden's 195 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 3: military COVID nineteen vaccine mandate. Terry Aderim, a senior Intelligence 196 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 3: Agency official and former senior Defense official who played a 197 00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 3: pivotal role and potentially illegal role in the Biden administration's 198 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:46,960 Speaker 3: military vaccine mandate, has been fired from the agency. That 199 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:52,079 Speaker 3: coming from Breitbart News. Adiam is a former senior Biden 200 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:55,439 Speaker 3: appointee at the Department of Defense who was performing the 201 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 3: duties of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs 202 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 3: and had to kill in December to the CIA as 203 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 3: director of CIA's Center for Global Health Services until about 204 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:10,960 Speaker 3: a week ago. According to sources, her firing was related 205 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 3: to a role enforcing service members to choose between taking 206 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 3: a vaccine that was under Emergency use authorization or being 207 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:20,319 Speaker 3: kicked out. 208 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:22,199 Speaker 4: According to sources. 209 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,640 Speaker 3: Now, on September the fourteenth of twenty twenty one, that 210 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:27,440 Speaker 3: was about a month after the Defense Secretary of Lloyd 211 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 3: Austin ordered the vaccine mandate, at Ourim issued a memo 212 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 3: instructing the DoD healthcare providers to consider the vaccine available 213 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 3: to service members, giving multiple ones, saying they were interchangeable 214 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:42,200 Speaker 3: even though they were not approved by the FDA. In fact, 215 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 3: per her guidance that she wrote, she said, the two 216 00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 3: vaccines are interchangeable and DoD healthcare providers should use doses 217 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 3: distributed under the EUA to administer the vaccination series as 218 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:58,840 Speaker 3: if the doses were the licen's vaccine. Translation, if you 219 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 3: don't have the Pfizer vaccine, we got another one that'll 220 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,960 Speaker 3: eventually get approved, so just you know, go with that one. Now, 221 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 3: our memo was considered legally dubious even inside the Pentagon. 222 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,440 Speaker 3: That was reported also by bright Bart News in September 223 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 3: of twenty twenty two, a month after Adurim issued her memo. 224 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:20,440 Speaker 3: A senior defense official proposed allowing service members who did 225 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 3: not want to take the EUA vaccine to wait for 226 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:29,280 Speaker 3: the FDA approved vaccine before facing punishment for being unvaccinated. 227 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 3: The Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Threadingess Policy 228 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 3: and Oversight, David Smith proposed in a draft memo that 229 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:40,559 Speaker 3: would replace the Adiam memo, saying quote, if a service member, 230 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:46,760 Speaker 3: after medical consulting declines, the administration of the EUA manufactured 231 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 3: product DoD healthcare providers should engage with their logistics change 232 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:57,640 Speaker 3: is secure and administer the manufactured bio Pfizer Intech product 233 00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:01,679 Speaker 3: prior to any punitive action being taken against the service member. Right, 234 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 3: this actually seems to make some sense. I don't know 235 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:06,560 Speaker 3: what this is. I don't want it my body. I'd 236 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:10,080 Speaker 3: rather wait for the Pfizer biointech one. That's what I 237 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:13,760 Speaker 3: want to do. And what did the military say? Well, no, 238 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:17,679 Speaker 3: that is not what happened at all. Smith's actions memo 239 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 3: was addressed to Adaim with a recommendation for her to 240 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:24,320 Speaker 3: sign the draft memo with a proposed change. According to 241 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 3: documents obtained by Bret Bart News, the draft memo have 242 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 3: been sent to the military services for coordination, and a 243 00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 3: senior Air Force official objected to it, arguing that adopting 244 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 3: the change could open the military up for more litigation 245 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,760 Speaker 3: and possibly force it to reverse punishments already given to 246 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 3: those that had not taken the vaccine. So now you 247 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,720 Speaker 3: know how little they actually cared in the Biden administration 248 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:51,160 Speaker 3: about those men and women that are willing to die 249 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:54,360 Speaker 3: for this country. And they looked at them as a headache. 250 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 3: And we're willing to give them a vaccine that actually 251 00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 3: hadn't been approved yet. And what do they do to 252 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:02,840 Speaker 3: those service that said they had real concerns, They said, 253 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 3: you're fired. 254 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 4: Well now at. 255 00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 3: Least a woman who wrote that memo has also been fired. 256 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 3: Paying off with what Donald Trump said, I'm going to 257 00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:15,200 Speaker 3: get back into office and I'm gonna put our war 258 00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:18,760 Speaker 3: fighters at the forefront of my advocacy. 259 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 2: Thank you for listening to the forty seven Morning Update 260 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 2: with Ben Ferguson.
