1
00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:03,680
Speaker 1: How many of you are worried about biological men and

2
00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:06,640
Speaker 1: boys competing against women and girls in sports. That's almost

3
00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:08,360
Speaker 1: the entire that is the entire route.

4
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:10,400
Speaker 2: It's so crazy.

5
00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:11,399
Speaker 1: How do you stop it?

6
00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:13,680
Speaker 2: If you just ban it, President bans it, you just

7
00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:14,640
Speaker 2: don't let it happen.

8
00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:20,360
Speaker 3: You're listening to the forty seven Morning Update with Ben Ferguson.

9
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:23,079
Speaker 4: Good Wednesday morning, Ben Ferguson with you, and here are

10
00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:25,239
Speaker 4: the big stories that we're covering this morning on the

11
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:29,640
Speaker 4: forty seven Morning Update. First up, Donald Trump shocks the

12
00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:33,280
Speaker 4: world by announcing at the White House that the US

13
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:37,279
Speaker 4: will take over Gaza quote, we will own it and

14
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:40,199
Speaker 4: make it the riviera of the Mid East. I have

15
00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 4: the details on this for you in just a moment.

16
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:45,479
Speaker 4: Also one of the reasons why I love doing this show,

17
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,240
Speaker 4: we get to give you news that's going to happen.

18
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:50,760
Speaker 4: And I've been told that Donald Trump is going to

19
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:56,320
Speaker 4: sign an executive order banning trans athletes from women's sports.

20
00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 4: One of his promises to protect women in sports on

21
00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:03,640
Speaker 4: the campaign trail is going to becoming a reality quite

22
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 4: possibly today. And finally, Zelenski, now, is I guess becoming

23
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:13,199
Speaker 4: a whistleblower now? Claiming that less than half the money

24
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,600
Speaker 4: that the US has sent has ever actually showed up.

25
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:20,080
Speaker 4: It's a forty seven morning update and it starts right now.

26
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:21,199
Speaker 3: Story number one.

27
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 4: It may go down in history is the biggest announcement

28
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,040
Speaker 4: that Donald Trump has ever made, that the US will

29
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 4: take over Gaza and we will own it, becoming the

30
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:34,320
Speaker 4: riviera of the Mid East. The world's people, the President declaring,

31
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 4: will live there. Now. To be clear, this wasn't an

32
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:40,480
Speaker 4: off the cuff remark. These remarks made by President Trump

33
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 4: were made in prepared remarks that he was reading from

34
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,080
Speaker 4: this meaning it was very obvious this was a well

35
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 4: thought out plan kept secret by the Trump administration without

36
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 4: a single person leaking it to the press. The President

37
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 4: making it clear to the world that America still has

38
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,919
Speaker 4: a role to play in the Middle East. Take a listen.

39
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 2: The only reason the Palestinians want to go back to

40
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:07,240
Speaker 2: Gaza is they have no alternative. It's right now a

41
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 2: demolition site. This is just a demolition site. Virtually every

42
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:15,120
Speaker 2: building is down. They're living under fallen concrete. That's very

43
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 2: dangerous and very precarious. They instead can occupy all of

44
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 2: a beautiful area with homes and safety and they can

45
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 2: live out their lives in peace and harmony instead of

46
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 2: having to go back and do it again. The US

47
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 2: will take over the Gaza Strip and we will do

48
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 2: a job with it too. We'll own it and be

49
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:36,800
Speaker 2: responsible for dismantling all of the dangerous unexploded bombs and

50
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,959
Speaker 2: other weapons on the site. Level the site and get

51
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 2: rid of the destroyed buildings, level it out, create an

52
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:47,240
Speaker 2: economic development that will supply unlimited numbers of jobs and

53
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 2: housing for the people of the area. Do a real

54
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 2: job to something different. Just can't go back. If you

55
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 2: go back, it's going to end up the same way

56
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 2: it has for a hundred years.

57
00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 4: That is what the present said, as net who was

58
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 4: staring on Now the big question is Netnah Who's response

59
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 4: to this? Was this something he was prepared for. Well,

60
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,840
Speaker 4: BB made it clear that he said this could quote

61
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:14,360
Speaker 4: change history. Now, let me give you more details on

62
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 4: exactly what this means. Donald Trump saying the US will

63
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 4: take over the Gaza Strip and we will do this job.

64
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:22,679
Speaker 4: You're going to love it. He says, We're going to

65
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,800
Speaker 4: be responsible for dismantling all of the dangerous bombs and

66
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:27,919
Speaker 4: other weapons on the site. We're going to get rid

67
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,800
Speaker 4: of the destroyed buildings and create an economic development that

68
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 4: will supply unlimited numbers of jobs and housing. Now this

69
00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 4: surprise announcement came as the President spoke with Netan Yahoo,

70
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:42,720
Speaker 4: the first foreign leader to visit Trump since his inauguration

71
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 4: last month. Now, Trump had previously said that he would

72
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 4: also like to see most or all of the Palestinian

73
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 4: population of Gaza moved to another Arab or Muslim country.

74
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 4: The idea of actually taking over Gaza and establishing a

75
00:03:55,680 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 4: US presence well was both unexpected and completely new. Trump

76
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:05,080
Speaker 4: added that the US would develop Gaza economically, sending troops

77
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 4: also if necessary, and making major investments. He called the

78
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 4: potential of Gaza quote unquote unbelievable, but said that Palestinian

79
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,280
Speaker 4: control of Gaza will never work. He added, you have

80
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,840
Speaker 4: to learn from history. We have an opportunity to do

81
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 4: something phenomenal the riviera of the Middle East. He said

82
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 4: that he envisioned the world's people living there, adding I

83
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 4: think you'll make Gaza into an international, unbelievable place. I

84
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:32,280
Speaker 4: think the potential in the Gaza strip is unbelievable, and

85
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 4: I think the entire world, representatives from all over the

86
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:38,600
Speaker 4: world will be there. A reporter also attacked Donald Trump, saying, well,

87
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,360
Speaker 4: what right does the US have to take over Gaza,

88
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:45,520
Speaker 4: calling it, by the way, inaccurately sovereign territory. Just to

89
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:49,159
Speaker 4: put in perspective, there is no Palestinian state right now

90
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:52,480
Speaker 4: and no sovereign power in the territory. But hey, let's

91
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:54,000
Speaker 4: not get facts get in the way of a good

92
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 4: angry press briefing reporter right Well, Trump did not reply directly,

93
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:02,159
Speaker 4: but said that a mayor control of Gaza would increase

94
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:07,040
Speaker 4: stability in the region as the various nations pursue piece together.

95
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:11,279
Speaker 4: Netan Yahoo, who had never publicly advocated for anything like

96
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:13,840
Speaker 4: what Trump proposed at the White House, said the idea

97
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 4: was quote unquote something that could change history and that

98
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,279
Speaker 4: it was worth considering now.

99
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 3: Story number two.

100
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:24,920
Speaker 4: Back during the presidential campaign trail, Donald Trump sat down

101
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:28,160
Speaker 4: with Harris Faulkner for a town hall. A very important

102
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 4: issue was the issue of well, how to deal with

103
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:36,280
Speaker 4: men acting like women taking over women's sports, And the

104
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,720
Speaker 4: President pledged that he was going to make it a

105
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 4: real issue if you gave him his vote. Now, let

106
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 4: me remind you what Harris Faulkner said and what the

107
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 4: president said at the time. This was back in October

108
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:49,239
Speaker 4: October the sixteenth, to be exact, right in the heat

109
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,280
Speaker 4: of the presidential election cycle.

110
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 1: How many of you are worried about biological men and

111
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,719
Speaker 1: boys competing against women and girls in sports. To show me,

112
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 1: that's almost the entire That is the entire room. And

113
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:01,160
Speaker 1: I know you have a question that you do.

114
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,840
Speaker 2: By the way, excuse me, it's so crazy.

115
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,040
Speaker 1: Your question, your name and your hometown.

116
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 2: My name is Linda and I'm from Milton, Georgia. My

117
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:12,840
Speaker 2: question is, how do you plan on addressing the transgender

118
00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:16,360
Speaker 2: issue in women's sports. It's such an easy question, and

119
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:18,320
Speaker 2: everybody in the room and you know that answer. We're

120
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:21,280
Speaker 2: not going to let it happen. You look, just yesterday

121
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:23,679
Speaker 2: they had a volleyball metch Did you see that where

122
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 2: a person that transitioned. Okay, we have to be very

123
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 2: careful because this can terminate your political career if you

124
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:35,359
Speaker 2: say it's slightly offer right, but transitioned from man to female.

125
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,719
Speaker 2: It was on a volleyball, and I saw the slam.

126
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,280
Speaker 2: It was a slam. I never saw a ball hit

127
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 2: so hard hit the girl on the head. But other people,

128
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,160
Speaker 2: even a volleyball they've been permanently. I mean they've been

129
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,719
Speaker 2: really hurt badly. Women playing men. But you don't have

130
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 2: to do the volleyball. We stop it. We stop it,

131
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,400
Speaker 2: We absolutely stop it. You can't have it. It's a

132
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:57,039
Speaker 2: man playing in the game, I mean physically from a

133
00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 2: muscular say, even if it was a little bit less,

134
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 2: maybe they do well sor it's a pest and drugs

135
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:04,800
Speaker 2: and everything else. Look at what's happened in swimming. Look

136
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:05,400
Speaker 2: at the records.

137
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:07,919
Speaker 1: How do you stop it? Do you go to the

138
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:09,840
Speaker 1: sports leagues? Do you go to the Olympics? You just

139
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:10,240
Speaker 1: ban it?

140
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 2: The president bans it. You just don't let it happen.

141
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 4: The audience goes wild. Now the question is could the

142
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 4: present pay off on this. I'm now being told from

143
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 4: those around the president that Donald Trump plans as early

144
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:31,160
Speaker 4: as today to sign an executive order banning trans athletes

145
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:34,440
Speaker 4: from women's sports. Just like he said in that interview,

146
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 4: President Trump is set to sign this executive order that

147
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 4: would ban transgender athletes from playing in girls and women's

148
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 4: sports and schools that accept federal funding. Now, the presidents

149
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 4: expect to sign the order as early as I mentioned today,

150
00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 4: to coincide with National Girl and Women in Sports Day. Now,

151
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,720
Speaker 4: let me break down for you what this could actually accomplish.

152
00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 4: To be clear, President does not have the authority to

153
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 4: place an outright nationwide ban on transgendered athletes playing as females. However,

154
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 4: the executive Order and the Executive Branch does control federal

155
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,920
Speaker 4: funding as it pertains a Title nine So it's likely

156
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 4: that this order will direct Title nine rules to be rewritten,

157
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 4: and they would be rewritten to exclude trans athletes from

158
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 4: playing as females or risk a cutoff of the federal

159
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:29,120
Speaker 4: funds that clearly are controlled by the US government. Now,

160
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:33,840
Speaker 4: in a signal, the NCAA president Charlie Baker already signaled

161
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 4: that if Title nine rules are changed, his college sports

162
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:41,360
Speaker 4: organization would quote quickly move to adhere to the letter

163
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:45,840
Speaker 4: of such changes, saying, quote we're a national governing body

164
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 4: and we follow federal law, Baker said before Congress in December.

165
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:53,720
Speaker 4: He also urged lawmakers at the time to provide quote

166
00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 4: clarity on the issue. This is exactly why Donald Trump

167
00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 4: is probably going to write it this way, making it

168
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 4: that he was going to address the issue of transgendent

169
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 4: athletes if he were to win the White House and

170
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,840
Speaker 4: now paying off on it. But most importantly what this

171
00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:11,920
Speaker 4: will do is this will protect young women and there

172
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:15,679
Speaker 4: is a mandate. Polls show that Trump has strong support

173
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 4: among voters. In fact, a recent poll found that sixty

174
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 4: percent oppose the extreme left wing Democratic transgender agenda, and

175
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 4: another poll found that seventy five percent of parents oppose

176
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:33,080
Speaker 4: the harmful transagenda in schools. This is exactly why so

177
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 4: many mothers voted for Donald Trump.

178
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:37,320
Speaker 3: And lastly's story number three.

179
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:40,720
Speaker 4: If you've ever studied Ukraine, you know that the country

180
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:44,720
Speaker 4: is insanely corrupt. The leadership's corrupt, the oligarchs are corrupt,

181
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:48,400
Speaker 4: and when you send money to Ukraine it disappears very quickly.

182
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 4: It's also saying something that even people in Russia say, Yeah,

183
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,959
Speaker 4: we know our country is corrupt, but you've seen nothing

184
00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 4: until you've seen Ukraine. Well, just how bad is it?

185
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:00,120
Speaker 2: Well?

186
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:04,120
Speaker 4: Zelensky is now claiming the Ukraine received quote less than

187
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:07,840
Speaker 4: half of usaid and they don't know where all the

188
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:12,360
Speaker 4: money went. Yes, Ukrainian President Zelensky has said that his

189
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,600
Speaker 4: country has only received around seventy eight billion in aid

190
00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:19,480
Speaker 4: from the United States, despite America authorizing around a one

191
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:23,200
Speaker 4: hundred and seventy five billion to quote support the war

192
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:28,560
Speaker 4: torn country, meaning one hundred billion dollars is missing now.

193
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:32,640
Speaker 4: In an interview with the Associated Press published Zolensky said

194
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:34,680
Speaker 4: he doesn't know where most of the money the United

195
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:38,280
Speaker 4: States allocated under the Biden administration the Ukraine has gone.

196
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,080
Speaker 4: When I hear both in the past and even now

197
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:44,319
Speaker 4: from the US that America has provided Ukraine with hundreds

198
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:47,600
Speaker 4: of billions, as the president of a nation at war,

199
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 4: I can tell you we've received no more than seventy

200
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:55,480
Speaker 4: five billion, he said. We're talking about tangible things because

201
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:58,559
Speaker 4: this aid didn't come as cash, but rather as weapons,

202
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:02,679
Speaker 4: which amount to a seventy billion dollars. But when it's

203
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 4: said that Ukraine received two hundred billion to support the

204
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 4: army during the war, that's not true. I don't know

205
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 4: where all that money went, Zelenski admitted. So they got

206
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 4: the money, but now it's missing. Perhaps it's true on paper,

207
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:21,120
Speaker 4: He went on to say, with hundreds of different programs,

208
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 4: I won't argue, and we're immensely grateful for everything, but

209
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:30,520
Speaker 4: in reality, we received about seventy six billion. It's significant aid,

210
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:34,000
Speaker 4: but it's not two one hundred billion. The Ukrainian leader

211
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:38,080
Speaker 4: suggested that perhaps the additional funds went to humanitarian programs,

212
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:42,199
Speaker 4: which he said he was uninformed about except for knowing

213
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:46,160
Speaker 4: of their existence. Now, the question that you're obviously asking

214
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:49,760
Speaker 4: yourself right now is, Okay, did the money even leave America?

215
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:52,880
Speaker 4: And if it did leave America, who has it now? Well,

216
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:56,720
Speaker 4: there have been long noted concerns in Washington over sending

217
00:11:56,760 --> 00:12:00,720
Speaker 4: billions of dollars to Ukraine given its corruption issues. In

218
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:05,360
Speaker 4: twenty twenty three, Transparency International ranked Ukraine as the second

219
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 4: most corrupt European nation, only behind Russia, with a score

220
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 4: of thirty three out of one hundred. In fact, the

221
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:17,160
Speaker 4: Oversight Committee in the US House of Representatives found that

222
00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:23,840
Speaker 4: Ukrainian government officials allegedly engaged in bribery, used government vehicles

223
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:29,520
Speaker 4: for personal use, and purchase inflated food supplies for Ukrainian forces,

224
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 4: padding their own pockets. Now, despite previously downplaying the widespread

225
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:37,920
Speaker 4: corruption in the former Soviet state, The New York Times

226
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:42,319
Speaker 4: even reported in twenty twenty three that unnamed Ukrainian officials

227
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:47,520
Speaker 4: admitted US taxpayer money intended for military contracts had quote

228
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:51,920
Speaker 4: failed to produce weaponry or ammunition, and that some money

229
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:55,760
Speaker 4: has well just vanished. Moral of the story, it's probably

230
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 4: time for Elon Musk and his team to take a

231
00:12:59,000 --> 00:12:59,880
Speaker 4: look at Ukraine.
