It's the 27 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 4: forty seven Morning Update and it starts right now. 28 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:26,400 Speaker 3: Story number one. 29 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 4: Donald Trump made a promise to every American voter on 30 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,959 Speaker 4: April the second of twenty twenty four that if you 31 00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:35,919 Speaker 4: elected him president of the United States of America again, 32 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:37,080 Speaker 4: he would do this. 33 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:41,279 Speaker 1: We will end deadly sanctuary cities immediately. I will shift 34 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 1: massive portions of federal law enforcement to immigration enforcement, and 35 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 1: we will impose a naval blockade on the cartels, and 36 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 1: we will hit the cartels very hard. 37 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:55,680 Speaker 4: Donald Trump paying off on those promises already, as NBC 38 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 4: News is now losing their mind over the fact that 39 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 4: ICE has made well over two five hundred immigration arrests 40 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 4: in the last week since Donald Trump was inaugurated. So 41 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:10,640 Speaker 4: when you are being successful at going after the worst 42 00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 4: among us, the question then is how do you turn 43 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 4: the table on Donald Trump If you're the left. Well, 44 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 4: they've gone back to their basic playbook, and that is 45 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:24,240 Speaker 4: to lie to the American people. There was a story 46 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 4: that broke over the last twenty four hours accusing Donald 47 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 4: Trump and ICE agents of raiding a school. Well, many 48 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 4: of you may not know this, it never happened. Democrats, 49 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:40,799 Speaker 4: including the governor of Illinois, knew that they were lying 50 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,880 Speaker 4: when they leaked to the press that ICE agents had 51 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 4: come into a school. Yes, raided a school to take 52 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 4: out children. Well, we now have found out that the 53 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:52,920 Speaker 4: governor knew it was a lie when he told the 54 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 4: story to the world. And what did the press do? 55 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 4: They ran with it. So what actually happened. Tom Homan 56 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 4: went on Fox News channel to explain because he was 57 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 4: in Chicago and to call out the Democratic leaders for 58 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,360 Speaker 4: yet again lying to you. 59 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 6: So something crazy happened in Chicago at the end of 60 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,359 Speaker 6: last week. Two Secret Service agents went to a local 61 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,800 Speaker 6: elementary school because they were running down a threat that 62 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:20,640 Speaker 6: was made on TikTok. They identified themselves to the school principle. 63 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 6: They even left cards saying, look, if you want to 64 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 6: get back to us, here's how you get back to us. 65 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 6: Suddenly the story became that it was ICE agents who 66 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,680 Speaker 6: went to this school. Tom and Peter Martinez, the Chicago 67 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 6: Public School CEO said this, listen. 68 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 7: Here, we had individuals that came to one of our schools, 69 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 7: Hamlin Elementary School, that presented credentials that are that and 70 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 7: share that they were from ICE. And so our staff 71 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 7: followed the protocols. We're very clear. We've we've been training 72 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 7: our principles, our security guards, any front office staff to 73 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 7: make sure that making sure that they know that we 74 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 7: are not to share any information with anybody from the 75 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 7: Immigition Department or RICE. 76 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 6: So not only did the CEO of Chicago Public Schools 77 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 6: pass off misinformation about US Secret Service agents who are 78 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 6: interpreted to be ICE, but listen to what JB. Pritzker, 79 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 6: the Governor of Illinois said after that, after a week 80 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 6: of Republicans sewing fear and chaos, the first reports of 81 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 6: raids in Chicago are at an elementary school, targeting children 82 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 6: and separating families as cruel and un America. To be clear, again, 83 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:27,039 Speaker 6: these were Secret Service agents running down a threat that 84 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 6: was made on TikTok. They were not ICE agents. ICE 85 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 6: never went near that school. What do you say to 86 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 6: Pedro Martinez and the governor of Illinois who appeared to 87 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 6: be not only sewing information but fear. 88 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 8: Well, Peter Martinez lied. He lied to the City of 89 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 8: Chicago because he knew those Secret Service agents, because I 90 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:47,000 Speaker 8: talked to that people involved. They left their credentials. He 91 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,719 Speaker 8: knew exactly who were there. So we lied again, sowing 92 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 8: fear in the immigrant community and Governor of Prisker rather 93 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 8: than calling ICE and asking us did this happen? Did 94 00:04:55,520 --> 00:05:00,720 Speaker 8: not have? He goes on social media and terrifies ICE 95 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 8: agers are walking in there now. He accuses me of 96 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 8: terrifying the community. No, he terrified the community. He terrified 97 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 8: the children. You know what ICE sug yesterday, they saved children. 98 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:12,280 Speaker 8: We arrested nine sexual predators, many of them child sex predators. 99 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 8: We saved children. Ice saved children. We're not going in 100 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 8: schools and scaring the hell album Governor Prisker deserves. He 101 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 8: needs to give ICE an apology. What he did was 102 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 8: just playing wrong and by doing that, he put fear 103 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,040 Speaker 8: in the community. They shouldn't have to be there. Children 104 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 8: shouldn't have to fear ICE ags walking into l elementary 105 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 8: school with the rest them. 106 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:31,680 Speaker 4: Did you hear the last thing that he said there? 107 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 4: Children shouldn't have to fear that ICE agents are going 108 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:36,799 Speaker 4: to come into their school. 109 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 5: And arrest them. This is exactly why we. 110 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 4: Are doing this show every day, because we want you 111 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 4: to know what's happening. They are lying to you. They 112 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:50,920 Speaker 4: knew this was Secret Service agents. They then decided to 113 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:54,720 Speaker 4: take those agents and lie. Do the American people say 114 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 4: they were Ice agents rating a school. It never happened. 115 00:05:58,720 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 3: Now, story number two. 116 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 4: During the presidential campaign, Donald Trump made it very clear 117 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,039 Speaker 4: that he was going to defend our men and women 118 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:10,720 Speaker 4: in uniform who were fired for refusing, even for religious reasons, 119 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 4: to take the COVID nineteen vaccine. The Harris and Biden 120 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:17,919 Speaker 4: administration wanted to punish them and get them out of 121 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 4: the military because I guess they assumed they were probably conservative. 122 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:21,920 Speaker 2: Well. 123 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 4: As of January of twenty twenty five, more than eight 124 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 4: thousand men and women that are serving their country have 125 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:33,039 Speaker 4: been discharged for refusing that COVID nineteen vaccine. 126 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 5: While Donald Trump made it. 127 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 4: Clear the day that he was inaugurated that he was 128 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 4: going to fix that injustice. 129 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 2: This week, I will reinstate any service members who were 130 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,920 Speaker 2: unjustly expelled from our military for objecting to the COVID 131 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 2: vaccine mandate with full. 132 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:56,159 Speaker 5: Back pain, with full back pay. 133 00:06:56,560 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 4: That made many liberals in Washington lose their President Trump said, 134 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 4: I don't care.

Now, the acting Attorney General also made 178 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:44,679 Speaker 4: it clear he wanted America to understand why these individuals 179 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:48,320 Speaker 4: were going to be fired. He said, these individuals they 180 00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:54,720 Speaker 4: cannot trust to assist in faithfully implementing the president's agenda. Well, 181 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 4: that's pretty obvious statement if you asked me for a 182 00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 4: reason to fire somebody, especially since the last next thing 183 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,679 Speaker 4: they were working on was locking up Donald Trump. Now, 184 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:08,319 Speaker 4: McHenry has transmitted a letter to each official notifying them 185 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:12,560 Speaker 4: of their termination. A Justice Department official also said today 186 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 4: it's unclear how many other officials will be fired in 187 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 4: the coming days. It seems that they are starting at 188 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 4: the top and working their way down. This action quote 189 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:28,439 Speaker 4: is consistent with the mission of ending the weaponization of government, 190 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:32,200 Speaker 4: the officials also said to Fox News. The move comes 191 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:36,239 Speaker 4: after the Justice Department reassigned more than a dozen officials 192 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 4: in the first week of the Trump administration to a 193 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 4: sanctuary city task force and other measures. It also comes 194 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 4: after Trump vowed to end the weaponization of the federal 195 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:50,720 Speaker 4: government against anyone in politics. The former Attorney General you 196 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:52,960 Speaker 4: may remember a guy by the name of Merrick Garland 197 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 4: appointed Smith, a former Justice Department official, as Special council 198 00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:01,200 Speaker 4: back in November of twenty twenty two. Smith came in 199 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 4: is nothing more than a hit man to take out 200 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:07,400 Speaker 4: Donald J. Trump, and he led that investigation into Trump's 201 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 4: retention of classified documents. After leaving the White House, he 202 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 4: also was involved in the raid of Marlago and then 203 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:19,079 Speaker 4: he went after Donald Trump for other charges and other cases. 204 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 4: And just for the record, so you know, Special Counsel 205 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 4: Jack Smith, he's also without a job today, so I 206 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 4: guess he's got some drinking buddies to hang out with 207 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 4: that we're all in cahoots to overthrow the will of 208 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,240 Speaker 4: the people and to lock up Donald Trump. 209 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 3: Thank you for listening to the forty seven Morning Update 210 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 3: with Ben Ferguson.
