1 00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:05,640 Speaker 1: We will pursue charges in this case. I see various 2 00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:08,400 Speaker 1: crimes that have occurred. Exactly what they are, I'm not 3 00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:11,080 Speaker 1: going to flag, but the Face Act has been mentioned 4 00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:14,000 Speaker 1: as one of the predicates there. In other cases, the 5 00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:18,439 Speaker 1: Biden DOJ used the Clan Act conspiracy charges tacked on 6 00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:20,759 Speaker 1: to the Face Act in the case of protests outside 7 00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:24,360 Speaker 1: abortion clinics to bring much longer sentences. So there are 8 00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:25,960 Speaker 1: a number of tools available with us. 9 00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:30,440 Speaker 2: You're listening to the forty seven Morning Update with Ben ferguson. 10 00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:31,920 Speaker 3: Good Tuesday morning.

She added that investigators have opened what she 56 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 3: described as a sweeping fraud probe totally at least nineteen billion, 57 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 3: sharpening her criticism of the Minnesota Governor Waltz and the 58 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 3: Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Fry for what she called a failure 59 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 3: to protect public safety. In a statement, Nomes said the 60 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 3: Department of Homeland Security law enforcement officers carried out the 61 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 3: arrests and that about three thousand were made in the 62 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 3: past six weeks alone. She said, those arrests included murderers, rapists, 63 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:51,520 Speaker 3: child sex offenders, and other violent criminals. But the media, 64 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 3: they don't want you to know this story. Christy Nome 65 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 3: is a great example of one of those that the 66 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 3: so called media loves to go after. And on Sunday 67 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 3: morning on Face the Nation on CBS, there was this 68 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 3: exchange and it was amazing because Christy Nome took the 69 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 3: anchor to the woodshed over her own lives. I want 70 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 3: you to listen to the DHS secretary destroying CBS News's 71 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 3: Margaret Brennan over the ice arrests and listened to the 72 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,799 Speaker 3: bias that was on the show that she didn't allow 73 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:27,280 Speaker 3: to become reality. 74 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,359 Speaker 4: You just said, millions, what's the breakdown of the percentage 75 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,800 Speaker 4: of those who you have in custody who have actually 76 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:37,039 Speaker 4: committed a criminal offense versus just the civil infraction. Every 77 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 4: single individual has committed a crime, but seventy percent of 78 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 4: them have committed or have charges against them on violent 79 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 4: crimes and crimes that they are charged with or have 80 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 4: been convicted of that have come from other countries that 81 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,599 Speaker 4: are here illegally. First of all, and then they have 82 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 4: committed a criminal act while they've been here or in 83 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 4: their home countries as well. It's not seventy percent, yes, 84 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 4: it is is seventy percent of everyone, you guys, it's 85 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:05,280 Speaker 4: changing your percentage. You pick and choose what numbers you 86 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:08,000 Speaker 4: think work. But that is the facts is that seventy 87 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:11,600 Speaker 4: percent of the people that we have detained have charges 88 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 4: against them or have been convicted of charges, and they 89 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 4: need to be brought to justice. And we're going to 90 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 4: keep doing that no matter how much you guys keep 91 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:21,479 Speaker 4: lying and don't tell the public the truth. It absolutely 92 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 4: is that these law enforcement officers are out there every 93 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:27,039 Speaker 4: day doing the work to protect the American people, and 94 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 4: they will keep doing that because they believe in enforcing 95 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:31,800 Speaker 4: the law, which is exactly what President Trump has charged 96 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 4: them with. 97 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 3: You listen there to again the lies coming from CBS News. 98 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 3: They try to spend the numbers, they try to say 99 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 3: what she said is not accurate, and then when they're 100 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 3: called out on it, you notice how quiet Brennan shut 101 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 3: down because she knows that this is the actual number, 102 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 3: which also brings us to another part of this story. 103 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 3: You may not know the headline that I'm about to 104 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 3: give you, and that is the DOJ is investigating the 105 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 3: Minnesota governor as well as the Minneapolis mayor their boat 106 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 3: to crime. The probe is a quote intimidation tactic, and 107 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 3: the liberal media is more than happy to spend it 108 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:15,479 Speaker 3: that way. Exactly for them. CNN doing a perfect job 109 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 3: of giving you state sponsored media from the governor and 110 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 3: the mayor, as they reported on this story between Jake 111 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 3: Tapper and Caitlin Collins. Listen to how they tried to 112 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 3: explain the story to you so that you think that 113 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 3: somehow Donald Trump is the one doing something wrong, not 114 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 3: the mayor who said that we should get the Ice 115 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 3: Agency f out of his city, or the governor who 116 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 3: said it's civil war. And let's also be clear, why 117 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 3: are they saying that, Because billions of dollars have been 118 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:53,239 Speaker 3: coming into their state and have been disappearing through corruption, fraud, 119 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 3: and much of the money actually going directly to terrorist 120 00:06:56,040 --> 00:07:00,840 Speaker 3: organizations like al Shabab. There is a massive in the 121 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:04,479 Speaker 3: entire state and they don't want the federal government there 122 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:08,000 Speaker 3: trying to clean it up. So CNN says, yeah, we'll 123 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 3: give you cover to that, no problem. 124 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 5: I've confirmed that the Justice Department is investigating Minnesota Governor 125 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 5: Tim Wallas and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frye. A source familiar 126 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 5: has told me that that confirms what was reported earlier 127 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 5: by CBS, and essentially, Jake, as we're still trying to 128 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 5: figure out what exactly the contours of this investigation are, 129 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,760 Speaker 5: we have a pretty good idea so far. And we 130 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 5: heard from the Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanch earlier this 131 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 5: week after we had heard these comments from Mayor fry 132 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 5: from Governor Walls following the shooting of a woman by 133 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 5: an ICE agent in Minneapolis. Earlier this week, Todd Blanche 134 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 5: was saying that ICE operates in a bunch of different 135 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 5: counties without incidents going on. He referred to what's happening 136 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 5: in Minnesota as an insurrection and said it's the direct 137 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 5: result of a failed governor and an all caps terrible 138 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 5: mayor who he accused of encouraging violence against law enforcement, 139 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 5: something that Todd Blanch called discussing, and he said, I'm 140 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:06,240 Speaker 5: focused on stopping you from your terrorism by whatever means necessary. So, Jake, 141 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 5: I think that gives us a pretty good sense of 142 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 5: what exactly it is that the Justice Department is at 143 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 5: least trying to base this investigation off of where it goes. 144 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 5: It's not really clear right now, but this does come 145 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 5: as the FBI director and the Deputy Attorney General we're 146 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 5: seen in Minneapolis today as they've been surging law enforcement 147 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 5: to the area, as those tensions have only continued since 148 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 5: the shooting of Renee Good. But it does show you, Jake, 149 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 5: who the Justice Department is focusing their targets on when 150 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 5: it comes to the aftermath of the shooting of Renee 151 00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 5: Good here and right now, it is the Minnesota Governor 152 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 5: Tim Walls and the mayor here, both of whom have 153 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:43,680 Speaker 5: been criticized by multiple White House officials for their comments, 154 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 5: including Mayor Fry telling Ice to get the f out 155 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 5: of Minneapolis the day that she was killed, and Governor 156 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 5: Wallas as well making multiple public comments talking about the 157 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:56,839 Speaker 5: massive federal presence in their state. And so now it's 158 00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 5: an investigation by the Justice Department. It's not clear, Jake, 159 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 5: that either of them have actually been served subpoenas as 160 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 5: a result of this. And where this is going to go. 161 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 5: It seems to be in the very early stages of 162 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:10,960 Speaker 5: whatever investigation this is, but that is what we have 163 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:11,960 Speaker 5: learned so far, Jake. 164 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 3: You notice there they didn't talk about the actual problems 165 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 3: in Minnesota. They did not talk about the fraud. They 166 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 3: didn't talk about the millions that turn into billions of 167 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 3: dollars that have gone missing from the taxpayers. No, No, Instead, 168 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 3: what did they do there? They made up a totally 169 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 3: different issue, and that was some sort of retaliation or 170 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:37,679 Speaker 3: retribution as they described it for a Trump administration they 171 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 3: claim is angry. Yes, the Trump administration, by the way, 172 00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:43,079 Speaker 3: is angry either angry that billions of dollars of our 173 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:46,679 Speaker 3: tax dollars have gone missing in corruption and fraud that 174 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,960 Speaker 3: the governor and the mayor looked the other way on purpose, 175 00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 3: which brings us back to Christino and what she had 176 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 3: to say on Monday. The federal authorities have not only 177 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 3: arrested more than ten thousand criminal legal alans in Minneapolis, 178 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 3: but she added that investigators have opened what she described 179 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 3: as that sweeping fraud probe totally at least nineteen billion, 180 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 3: and then explaining it very clearly, this is at the 181 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:18,320 Speaker 3: government's footsteps. This is a defeat of the governor of 182 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 3: Minnesota and the mayor of Minneapolis. She also made it 183 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 3: clear that the worst, the worst are who they're targeting 184 00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:28,680 Speaker 3: in Minnesota, and we are finding the rapists, the child 185 00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 3: sex offenders, the violent criminals, the murderers. Gno I writing 186 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 3: this peace and public safety in Minneapolis. We have arrested 187 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 3: over ten thousand criminal illegal aliens who were killing Americans, 188 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 3: hurting children, and raiding terror in Minneapolis because Tim Wall 189 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:49,320 Speaker 3: Jacob Frye refused to protect their own people and instead 190 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 3: protect criminals. Nome continued, in the last six weeks, our 191 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 3: brave Department of Homeland Security law enforcement have arrested three 192 00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:03,199 Speaker 3: thousand criminal illegal aliens and putting vicious murderers, rapist, child pedophiles, 193 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:08,200 Speaker 3: and incredibly dangerous individuals, a huge victory for public safety. 194 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 3: Gnoam also alleged massive fraud in her own words, totally 195 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 3: as she described it, at least nineteen billion, and said 196 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 3: Home in Security investigation agents were conducting large scale investigations 197 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 3: aimed at recovering money and holding those responsible accountable. Known, 198 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:30,079 Speaker 3: by the way, did not provide any details outside of that. 199 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 3: Why well, of course, because she doesn't want the criminals 200 00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 3: to know what we're actually doing. But what she did 201 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 3: say was this, there is massive fraud in Minneapolis, at 202 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 3: least nineteen billion, and that's just the tip of the Iceberg, 203 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:45,440 Speaker 3: our home insecurity investigators are on the ground in Minneapolis 204 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:49,440 Speaker 3: conducting wide scale investigations to get justice for the American 205 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 3: people who have been robbed blind. Now you notice she 206 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 3: didn't say Minnesota. She said nineteen billion in Minneapolis, one 207 00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 3: single city in America, by the way, not releasing records, names, 208 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:07,000 Speaker 3: or other details. Why because of course they don't want 209 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:10,080 Speaker 3: to help the criminals know what's coming. Now. We also 210 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:13,080 Speaker 3: know that the Justice Department is investigating whether walt and 211 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 3: Fry impeded federal immigration enforcement through public statements. According to 212 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:22,960 Speaker 3: people familiar with that investigation, both Waltz and Fry have 213 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 3: criticized the investigation, and of course, as you heard from 214 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 3: CNN earlier, they're describing it as an intimidation tactic. No, 215 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 3: it's an actual massive investigation. One other thing that's also 216 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,560 Speaker 3: really interesting is a federal judge in Minneapolis has barred 217 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 3: DHS agents from arresting what they describe as peaceful protesters 218 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 3: who are not suspected of crimes or obstructing officers after 219 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:52,600 Speaker 3: residents alleged violations of their constitucial rights while observing or 220 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 3: protesting immigration raids. NOMES fraud allegations also arrive against the 221 00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 3: backdrop of Minnesota's law running Feeding Our Future case high 222 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:08,559 Speaker 3: profile federal investigation tied to pandemic era child nutrition programs. 223 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 3: What we know about this is shocking. Minnesota's Office of 224 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 3: the Legislative Auditor summarized that the US Department of Justice 225 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:20,720 Speaker 3: has now charged not ten, not twenty, not thirty, not forty, 226 00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 3: not fifty, not sixty, but seventy individuals between September of 227 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,920 Speaker 3: twenty twenty two and February of twenty twenty four in 228 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 3: connection with US suspected two hundred and fifty million dollars 229 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 3: scheme involving federally funded nutrition programs, and said the alleged 230 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 3: fraud centered on the Minnesota nonprofit Feeding Our Future. Waltz's 231 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:49,720 Speaker 3: office previously said it had not received notice of the 232 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 3: Justice Department's investigation, while Fry said the probe appears aimed 233 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 3: at just intimidating him for opposing what he called dangerous 234 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 3: federal actions in his city. One thing is for sure, 235 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:07,800 Speaker 3: the Trump administration is not backing down, and because of 236 00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:11,720 Speaker 3: President Trump's leadership, others are doing their jobs the way 237 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 3: they're supposed to. That includes Christy Nome, the FBI, and 238 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 3: Cashpartel and many others who are now going to hold 239 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:23,440 Speaker 3: those accountable in Minnesota for the crimes that they've committed 240 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 3: and that, my friends, is far from quote intimidation, even 241 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 3: if CNN lies to you and says otherwise. 242 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 2: Thank you for listening to the forty seven Morning Update 243 00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 2: with Ben Ferguson.
