1
00:00:00,880 --> 00:00:03,800
Speaker 1: The Democrats are pushing it, and the problem is that

2
00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 1: it's turning out to be the Democrats that were with

3
00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:09,520
Speaker 1: and conspired with epsoin. So I think you're probably going

4
00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:12,239
Speaker 1: to see a little pullback from them. But think of it,

5
00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:16,200
Speaker 1: they were working together to try and help me lose

6
00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:19,560
Speaker 1: the election, but this is the Oval office, so I

7
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:21,000
Speaker 1: guess that didn't work out too well.

8
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:25,640
Speaker 2: You're listening to the forty seven Morning Update with Ben ferguson.

13

Speaker 4: Found in Minnesota is bad, apparently we've seen nothing yet.

14
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:40,159
Speaker 4: Take a look at California and it's truly unbelievable what

15

Speaker 7: First Assistant US Attorney Bill Assale says, there's a tremendous

91
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:00,679
Speaker 7: amount of fraud in this state. And that's today's bus

92
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 7: of one man who misused twenty three million dollars alone

93
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 7: may show how little oversight there is.

94
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:09,479
Speaker 8: California was pushing this money out quickly. A lot of

95
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:13,080
Speaker 8: money went out the door with frankly, very little vetting,

96
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 8: very little checks and balances, and he's one of the

97
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:17,240

98
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,400

102
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,040
Speaker 3: Now this is just the tip of the iceberg.

103
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 4: In fact, we now have the same man, Nick Shirley,

104
00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:38,000

105
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:41,360
Speaker 4: Minneapolis and exposing it to the world that is landed

106
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:44,600
Speaker 4: in California, and he's now saying that's even worse than

107
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:45,359
Speaker 4: anyone else.

108
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:46,160
