1 00:00:01,800 --> 00:00:04,640 Speaker 1: In twenty twenty four, the UN budgeted three hundred and 2 00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:08,159 Speaker 1: seventy two million dollars in cash assistance to support an 3 00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:12,119 Speaker 1: estimated six hundred and twenty four thousand migrants journeying into 4 00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:15,720 Speaker 1: the United States. Think of that, the UN is supporting 5 00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:18,439 Speaker 1: people that are illegally coming into the United States and 6 00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:20,360 Speaker 1: then we have to get them out. The UN also 7 00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:23,840 Speaker 1: provided food, shelter, transportation, and debit CODs. 8 00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:28,480 Speaker 2: You're listening to the forty seven Morning Update with Ben ferguson. 9 00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:30,240 Speaker 3: Good Thursday morning. Nice to have you with us on 10 00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:33,120 Speaker 3: the forty seven Morning Update. And there's one major story 11 00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:36,479 Speaker 3: recovering today, and that is the demonizing of ICE agents 12 00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:41,240 Speaker 3: is now causing more attacks. This time the second time 13 00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:45,080 Speaker 3: we've seen attack on ICE facilities in Dallas alone. So 14 00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:48,800 Speaker 3: what are Democrats saying in response? They're blaming ICE for 15 00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:53,760 Speaker 3: doing their jobs and Democrats continue to demonize even hours 16 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:59,160 Speaker 3: before the attack. Federal immigration law enforcement officers. All right, 17 00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 3: I want to take a moment and I want to 18 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:03,279 Speaker 3: talk to you real quick about what you can do 19 00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:07,400 Speaker 3: to help the people in Israel. It was nearly two 20 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:11,440 Speaker 3: years ago that the terrorists murdered more than twelve hundred 21 00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:14,760 Speaker 3: innocent Israelis and they took two hundred and fifty hostages. 22 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 3: Today it seems as if the cries of the dead 23 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:20,480 Speaker 3: and dying have been drowned out by the shouts of 24 00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 3: anti Semitism and just pure hatred, not just in America 25 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 3: but around the world. And the most brutal attack on 26 00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 3: Jewish people happened. It happened since the Holocaust, and now 27 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:34,679 Speaker 3: it's like they're trying to act like it never happened. Now. 28 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:37,040 Speaker 3: This is where it is important for us to stand 29 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:40,679 Speaker 3: with the people in Israel.

It's the forty seven Morning 54 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 3: Update and it starts right now. 55 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:12,360 Speaker 2: Story number one. 56 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 3: On Wednesday, a gunman open fire on an Immigration and 57 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:20,920 Speaker 3: Customs Enforcement ICE facility in Dallas, Texas, leaving one migrant 58 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:25,240 Speaker 3: detainee dead and two others in critical condition. The Federal 59 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 3: Bureau of Investigations, the FBI director Caspattel, has also revealed 60 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 3: that at least one of the shellcasings from the guvernman's 61 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 3: bullet was etched with anti ICE messaging, indicating a left 62 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 3: wing ideological motive for the attack. For months and the 63 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 3: lead up to the attack on the Dallas Ice facility, 64 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 3: Democrats have continuously made statements demonizing ICE agents, doxing ICE agents, 65 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 3: and also going after the agency's acting director, Todd Lyons. 66 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 3: Todd Lions is publicly asked to halt the rhetoric for 67 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 3: fear of a targeted attack just like the one we 68 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 3: witness on Wednesday. Now there are eight different occasions when 69 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 3: Democrats could have chosen the high road, but clearly, in 70 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 3: a coordinated effort, are continuing to go after ICE agents 71 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 3: for enforcing federal immigration law. Gavin Newsom, for example, claims 72 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 3: ICE agents will help suppress voter turnout. In fact, just 73 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 3: eight hours before the attack in Dallas, he was demonizing 74 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 3: ICE agents on national TV and here's what he had 75 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:36,719 Speaker 3: to say. 76 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,600 Speaker 4: That's happening in the United States of America. Masked men 77 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 4: jumping out of unmarked cars, people disappearing, no due process, 78 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 4: no oversight, zero accountability happening in the United States of 79 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 4: America today, People ask, well, is authoritarianism you're being hyperbolic. 80 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 4: We're being hyperbolic if you're a black and brown community. 81 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 5: It's here in this country. 82 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:02,240 Speaker 4: And so I'm proud that I had the privilege of 83 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 4: signing the nation's first bill to address the issue of masking, 84 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 4: also to require you have simple identification. To your point, 85 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:12,640 Speaker 4: I mean, if some guy jumped out of an unmarked 86 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:14,599 Speaker 4: car in a van with a mask on tried to 87 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,720 Speaker 4: grab me, I mean, by definition, you're going to push back. 88 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:22,040 Speaker 4: And so these these are not just authoritarian tendencies. These 89 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 4: are authoritarian actions by an authoritarian government. You saw what 90 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 4: Stephen Miller said last week. This should put chills a 91 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 4: fine called the Democratic Party an extremist organization, basically a 92 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:38,280 Speaker 4: terrorist organization, saying he's going after his enemies. You saw 93 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 4: the tweet that Donald Trump sent out true social basically 94 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 4: telling PAMBONDI, I want these three people taken out. That's 95 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 4: happening in the United States. 96 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 3: That was eight hours eight hours before the attack on 97 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 3: ICE agents in Dallas. Gavin Newsom said people need to 98 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 3: push back on ICE agents because they're the result of 99 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:03,599 Speaker 3: an authority Harry and government. And this morning a sniper 100 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:08,280 Speaker 3: shot up an ICE facility, killing innocent by the way immigrants, 101 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:11,720 Speaker 3: to be very clear, But that's not the only time 102 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:15,000 Speaker 3: Gavin Newsom has been saying this. Last month, during a 103 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 3: podcast episode, the California governor made the unprecedented claim that 104 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 3: ICE agents may be used by President Donald Trump's in 105 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 3: next year's midterm election to help suppress voter turnout. Quote. 106 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 3: Trump's already sending out mass people to intimidate folks when 107 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 3: we launched our campaign. Did it down in Little Tokyo 108 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 3: in LA? Do you think ICE is not going to 109 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 3: show up around voting and pulling booze to chill participation? 110 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 3: And you know that the National Guard, you know that. 111 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 3: That's what he went on to say. Yes, this is 112 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 3: the insanity of the left advocating for exactly what is 113 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:57,839 Speaker 3: happening today and having people get angry. Jasmine Crockett, the 114 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 3: representative from Texas, made in lamatory suggestions that ICE agents 115 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 3: are aching to slave patrols during an interview with MSNBC 116 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 3: just last week. Here's her in her own words. 117 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 6: What they're doing right now. It almost feels like, you know, 118 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 6: I've seen the memes about the purge and all these things, 119 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:21,840 Speaker 6: but as somebody who understands history, when I see ICE, 120 00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 6: I see slave patrols. Now, I never live through the 121 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 6: slave patrol period. But if you know the history of 122 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 6: policing in this country, then you understand that they were 123 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 6: born out of slave patrols. And now with the Supreme 124 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 6: Court saying this, it's almost like you can just go 125 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 6: grab them up, that is what they're saying, and that 126 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 6: is a problem. 127 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 5: We all should have a problem with that. 128 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 6: But when you don't want to teach American history that 129 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 6: includes black history, then you lose out on the benefit 130 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 6: of understanding that we have been down this road before 131 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:53,880 Speaker 6: and it was not good, and we fixed it once 132 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 6: and it is a shame that we are relitigating this 133 00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 6: and we are going to have to fix it again. 134 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 3: So just be very clear. Jasmine Crockett refers to ICE 135 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 3: agents grabbing illegal immigrants, many of them that have committed 136 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 3: heinous crimes as slave patrols. And you wonder why we 137 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 3: are now witnessing what we are witnessing right now with 138 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 3: a violence against ICE agents. The Boston mayor, Michelle wu 139 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 3: she said this about ICE agents. 140 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 7: I don't know of any police department that routinely wears masks. 141 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,840 Speaker 7: We know that there are other groups that routinely wear masks. 142 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 7: NSC one thirty one routinely wears masks. 143 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:41,319 Speaker 5: They are just a clarifier. 144 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:42,319 Speaker 8: You're comparing ICE. 145 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:46,600 Speaker 5: You said to NSC one thirty one the neo Nazi group. 146 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:48,679 Speaker 5: Are you comparing them to a neo Nazi group? 147 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 7: What I said is that Boston Police, and no police 148 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 7: department that I know of at the local level routinely 149 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 7: wears masks. 150 00:08:55,960 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 3: Boston Mayor comparing ICE agents to neo Nazi Tim Waltz 151 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:06,080 Speaker 3: saying this at a graduation ceremony about Department of Home 152 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 3: in Security and ICE. 153 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:11,520 Speaker 9: DESCAPO is scooping folks up off the streets. They're in 154 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 9: unmarked vans, wearing masks, being shipped off to foreign torture dungeons. 155 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 9: No chance to mount of defense, not even a chance 156 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 9: to kiss the loved one goodbye, just grabbed up by 157 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 9: massed agents, shoved into those vans and disappeared to be clear, 158 00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:27,679 Speaker 9: there's no way for us to know whether they were 159 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:28,680 Speaker 9: actually criminals or not. 160 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,720 Speaker 5: Because they refused to give them a trial. We're supposed 161 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 5: to just take their word for it. 162 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:37,560 Speaker 3: That is the man who was the vice presidential candidate 163 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 3: and a governor of a state saying that ICE agents 164 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 3: are the Gestapo. So you look at all of that 165 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 3: and then you go back to what happened in Dallas. 166 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,680 Speaker 3: I want you to listen closely to what the acting 167 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:57,319 Speaker 3: director of the Dallas Ice Field Office had to say 168 00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:01,320 Speaker 3: today about this being the second time it's happened in 169 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 3: his jurisdiction. 170 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 10: This is the. 171 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 11: Second time I've had to stand in front of you 172 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,320 Speaker 11: and talk about a shooter. 173 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 5: At one of my facilities. 174 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:14,080 Speaker 11: And I think that the takeaway from all of this 175 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 11: is that the rhetoric has to stop. There are people 176 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:23,600 Speaker 11: out there who are seeing what is being placed online 177 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:26,679 Speaker 11: and they're coming and they're doing acts of violence against 178 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:31,320 Speaker 11: ICE employees. It's dangerous and people are losing their lives. 179 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:36,959 Speaker 3: People are losing their lives. But what are the Democrats saying. 180 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 3: Not even close to that. They're now blaming ICE for 181 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:47,200 Speaker 3: being divisive. Yes, MSNBC, as people have been shot and 182 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:49,880 Speaker 3: there are people that are clinging for their lives, and 183 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 3: after we are seeing this happen on MSNBC, one of 184 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 3: their correspondents said today, quote, it's very early to know 185 00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 3: the motive of the ICE facility shooter. And know we 186 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 3: knew it was written on the bullet casings and then 187 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 3: they went on to blame ICE. We have also seen 188 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:10,840 Speaker 3: the very dramatic videos of ICE nabbing individuals, they said, 189 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 3: and tossing them into unmarked vehicles, justifying the violence centered. 190 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 3: Ted Cruz also coming out talking about how this must stop. 191 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 3: Here's what he said. 192 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:29,080 Speaker 12: This states to stop violence is wrong. Politically motivated violence 193 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 12: is wrong. It was two weeks ago today that we 194 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 12: saw a political assassination in Utah that tore the heart 195 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:39,840 Speaker 12: out of much of this country. This is the third 196 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:46,319 Speaker 12: shooting in Texas directed at ICE or CBP. This must 197 00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:52,720 Speaker 12: stop to end politician who is using rhetoric demonizing ICE 198 00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:58,839 Speaker 12: and demonizing CBP. Stop to every politician demanding that ICE 199 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 12: agents be doc and calling for people to go after 200 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 12: their families. Stop This has very real consequences. Look in America, 201 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 12: we disagree. That's fine, that's the democratic process. But your 202 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 12: political opponents are not Nazis. We need to learn to 203 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 12: work together without demonizing each other, without attacking each other. 204 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,080 Speaker 12: And I want to say thank you. I want to 205 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 12: say thank you to the brave men and women of 206 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 12: law enforcement. I want to say thank you to the 207 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 12: brave men and women of ICE and CBP and everyone 208 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 12: who puts their lives on the line to keep us safe. 209 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 12: The divisive rhetoric tragically has real consequence. I hope that 210 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,559 Speaker 12: every one of us will I hope that every one 211 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:46,840 Speaker 12: of us will pray number one for the safety of 212 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:49,839 Speaker 12: law enforcement that are risking their lives to keep us safe. 213 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 12: Number two, for the health of those who were shot 214 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 12: and injured. Today we still don't know the full details 215 00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 12: of who was injured, but for the families also of 216 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:03,840 Speaker 12: the victy of this shooting. Violence has no place, It 217 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 12: is wrong, and we should come together. If we want 218 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:09,719 Speaker 12: to have a debate of an immigration policies, we can 219 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 12: do so in the halls of Congress without demonizing each other, 220 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 12: and especially without demonizing the men and women who every 221 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 12: day put on a badge and go risk their lives 222 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 12: to keep us safe. And we should not be putting 223 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:32,400 Speaker 12: language out there that inspires mad men to commit evil crimes. 224 00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 12: Our prayers are with the men and women of law enforcement, 225 00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 12: and we ought to come together and have some decency 226 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 12: across the political aisle to say this violence is wrong 227 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:44,439 Speaker 12: and it needs to stop. 228 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 3: So will there be that type of decency. Well, moments 229 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 3: later on MSNBC. This is what they said, targets. 230 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 10: What about the politically motivated side of this. This is 231 00:13:56,440 --> 00:14:00,679 Speaker 10: now the fourth shooting that we've seen in just a 232 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:04,599 Speaker 10: little bit over a year where the suspect has allegedly 233 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 10: written on the casings of bullets some sort of politically 234 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 10: motivated message. 235 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, so, I mean terrorism is theater. 236 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 8: It's intended to influence an audience beyond its imeded victims. 237 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:23,160 Speaker 8: It's putting a message out. And terrorism falls into real 238 00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 8: really three categories. It's either religiously motivated, ideologically motivated, or 239 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 8: in this case, politically motivated. And the politically motivated ones. 240 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 8: It doesn't happen in a vacuum. It happens because conditions 241 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 8: have been set that people start acting out against. What 242 00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 8: are the conditions, So, you know, distrusted institutions that's been 243 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 8: building for quite some time, a tax on institutions, the 244 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 8: wealth gap, oppressive policies at least this is what people perceive. 245 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 8: And then the militarization of ice and other federal law 246 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 8: for the wearing of the mask. 247 00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:58,320 Speaker 5: Aggressive tactics. 248 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 8: So the people who who are starting to act out 249 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 8: against this feel it's their only. 250 00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 5: Recourse. Again, this is predictable. 251 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 8: We see this happening throughout our history and in other 252 00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 8: places as well. So you know we can tone down 253 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 8: the rhetoric and that that's the right message, but you 254 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 8: also have to start looking at what policies you've implemented, 255 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 8: what tactics you're using, because if you tourned down the 256 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:28,960 Speaker 8: rhetoric but you leave those other pieces in place, nothing's 257 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:29,360 Speaker 8: going to try. 258 00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:30,840 Speaker 5: So I wonder, though, I mean, this. 259 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 3: Is this is incredible. ICE needs to change their policies, 260 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:39,480 Speaker 3: meaning don't actually enforce the laws, go back to what 261 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:44,080 Speaker 3: was happening before and allow so many radicals to come 262 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 3: into this country. Those that are selling fetanyl killing Americans, 263 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 3: those that are sex trafficking children and abusing children, those 264 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 3: that are committing murders and violent crimes and rape. No, 265 00:15:55,880 --> 00:16:00,120 Speaker 3: they're saying, go back to the Biden policies or there 266 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:04,640 Speaker 3: will be more violence against ICE agents. JD. Vance, the 267 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 3: Vice President United its America, summed it up perfectly when 268 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:08,880 Speaker 3: he said this. 269 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 13: You don't have to agree with my immigration policies. You 270 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:15,440 Speaker 13: don't have to agree with Donald Trump's immigration policies, but 271 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:20,560 Speaker 13: if your political rhetoric encourages violence against our law enforcement, 272 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 13: you can go straight to hell, and you have no 273 00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 13: place in the political conversation of the United States of America. 274 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:31,360 Speaker 13: When Democratic politicians incur doxing, when they encourage us to 275 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:35,040 Speaker 13: unmask ice enforcement officers, what do you think is going 276 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 13: to happen? Political violence has gotten out of control in 277 00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 13: this country. We got to stop it, we gotta condemn it, 278 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:45,480 Speaker 13: and that starts, unfortunately at the very top of the Democratic. 279 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 3: Party, aim into that JD vance. If your political rhetoric 280 00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:52,920 Speaker 3: encourages violence against our law enforcement, you can go straight 281 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 3: to hell. 282 00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:57,000 Speaker 2: Thank you for listening to the forty seven Morning Update 283 00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:00,440 Speaker 2: with Ben Ferguson.
