Speaker 1 (00:00):
Biden fudged the numbers.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
The numbers were totally fake, and he gave fake numbers.
I knew they were fake.

Speaker 1 (00:07):
Everybody knew they were fake. But now it came out
and terrible. What they did that administration was a horror
show for this country.

Speaker 3 (00:14):
You're listening to the forty seven Morning Update with Ben Ferguson.

Speaker 1 (00:18):
Good Friday morning to you. It's Ben Ferguson. Nice to
have you on the forty seven Morning Update, and we've
got one heck of a show for you today, including
this Hunter Biden is saying now he's broke. It only
took a couple of weeks after Joe Biden left the
White House for Hunter Biden to say, I don't have
any money. I'm millions of dollars in debt and I
can't even keep a lawsuit that I sued someone else

(00:39):
over my laptop. How bad is it for him economically.
I'll explain his sad song story to you in just
a second. Also, Christy nom now saying she knows who
the internal individuals were in our government that were leaking
the location of ICE agents to help illegal immigrants get away,
and now they're facing prosecution. And finally almost one hundred

(01:02):
terror linked migrants were purposely and deliberately released into the
United States of America by the Biden administration. It's a
shocking story and I'll give you all the details in
just a moment. It's the forty seven Morning Update and
it starts right now.

Speaker 3 (01:17):
Story number one.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
It is an important story, the story of the Biden
crime family. As you know, in the final moments of
Joe Biden being in office, he pardoned many of his
family members and others that were involved in what he
believed was probably criminal activity. That's exactly why he gave
them a pardon. One of those pardons went to Hunter Biden,
and Hunter Biden was selling access to Daddy for decades. Well,

(01:41):
Hunter Biden now says he's broke. The sales of his
memoir and art have slowed to a trickle, and his
rental home was impacted, he claims, by the Pacific Palisades Fire. Yes,
all of this happening within weeks of Daddy leaving the
White House. A pardon from his dad spared him from prison.
The former president son remained saddled with debt and was

(02:03):
forced out of his house that he was running by
the fires that is what he is now whining and
complaining about. Biden detailed his grim financial situation in a
court filing yesterday, saying he has struggled to sell his
paintings in recent months. I wonder why moving only one
in the past fourteen months compared to twenty seven paintings

(02:27):
in the prior two or three years. These are his words.
In the court filing. He reported quote significant debts and
lackluster sales of his memoir just more than four thousand
and two inter copies during a one year period that
led up to the trial in Delaware last spring in
which he was found guilty of lying about his drug
addiction on a federal gun purchase form. Quote. Given the

(02:49):
positive feedback and reviews of my artwork and memoir, I
was expecting to obtain paige speaking engagements and paid appearances,
but that has not happened, and Biden wrote, citing the
financial burden of ongoing legal fees. Biden is now asking
a federal judge in LA to quote allow him to
drop a lawsuit that he filed in twenty twenty three

(03:11):
accusing former Trump White House aid of hacking the contents
of his laptop, which I guests now they're saying yet
again is actually real. Now The Daily Mail is also
reporting on this right now, and they're saying that he's
in serious financial trouble. Also now, Hunter Biden's lawyer claims
that in a letter to Ziegor's attorney this week, who

(03:33):
he was suing right because he hated him because he's
a ex Trump White House staffer. He indicated the former
first son is straight up out of cash and can
no longer tap his sugar brother that Hollywood attorney Kevin
Morris for funds and is not being bailed out by
Democratic donors either. The letter the Dailymail dot Com has
exclusively gotten says Hunter lacks the resources to continue his

(03:57):
litigation at this time, so was close to the case
also told the Dailymail dot Com that the pardon felon
is planning to quit California moved back to the East Coast.
The legal letter claimed hard up Hunter's financial woes have
been exacerbated after the fires in the Pacific Palisades in
early January up ended the planet's life by rendering his

(04:18):
rental house unlivable for an extended period of time. Now,
if you want to know how much the broke man
was paying for rent in Malibu. Apparently it was fifteen
thousand and eight one hundred dollars per month. It was
a four million dollar home, three bedroom, three bath, the
nineteen fifties style with a panoramic view over the Pacific Coast.
Sounds like the guys really broke right well. In September

(04:39):
of twenty twenty three, Hunter who's fifty five, he had
no problem suing Zieglor, the twenty nine year old former
Trump staffer, and his right wing nonprofit called Marco Polo,
in California federal court for alleged computer hacking. Why did
he do it? They're the ones that published a six
hundred and forty four page report on his alleged illegal
activity based on material from his infamous abandoned laptop. But

(05:01):
now apparently Hunter Biden just wants to drop the whole
case because he just doesn't have any money. Isn't amazing
how quick he goes broke after Daddy leaves office and
the gig is up, Just so you know, it's not
going to be that easy for Hunter Biden to get
out of the case. The furious man that was suedes
Iglor told the Daily Mail dot Com that the former
President Son isn't getting away that easily. Hunter wants to

(05:22):
cry uncle. We are opposing that. He said. We want
our attorneys fees to be paid, for Hunter to cease
lying about us and me, and just generally to shut
the f up. I couldn't have said it better myself.
Next story number two, sanctuary city mayors are now being
forced to testify on Capitol Hill. These are the same

(05:43):
mayors that refuse to hand over individuals that are wanted
by ICE. Why because they're a loving city, a sanctuary city,
and they refuse to abide by the law of the land. Well,
those sanctuary city mayors were forced to testify and it
didn't go very well for them. Take a listen.

Speaker 4 (06:00):
Would you turn that criminal over to Ice?

Speaker 5 (06:03):
This happened outside the city of Boston, but I can
tell you in the city, whenever someone commits a crime,
whenever there's a criminal warrant, we hold them accountable. If
ICE deems that they are dangerous enough to hold, obtain
a criminal warrant and the Boston Police will.

Speaker 4 (06:17):
Enforce it, will you turn that criminal over to ICE?

Speaker 5 (06:21):
We follow the laws and make sure.

Speaker 1 (06:24):
Do you consider yourself a sanctuary city?

Speaker 3 (06:26):
That's just we do not under that definition.

Speaker 1 (06:28):
You don't use the deficition. You're not a sanctuary.

Speaker 4 (06:31):
We call ourselves a welcoming city.

Speaker 2 (06:32):
We're not pulling the curtain back. We have ripped the
curtain from the rods. We have revealed to America just
how fast we could have secured our border if you
had an executive that was willing to enforce the law.
So now we're paying attention to municipalities, and every one
of them is lawyered up. If change their narrative, you'll

(06:56):
be held accountable. One of you said you're willing to
go to jail, we might give you that opportunity.

Speaker 1 (07:02):
Mayor yes or no?

Speaker 6 (07:03):
They should be deported, okay, ma, any individuals had breaks
up should be held. This is why you have six
percent approval rating, because you suck it answering questions. I
do not think you guys are bad people, but I
think that you are ideologically misled, which is why, unfortunately,
based on your responses, I'm all going to be criminally
referring you to the Department of Justice for investigation.

Speaker 1 (07:25):
All of you will be referred for criminal investigation Department
of Justice, all because these radicals are sitting there in
cities refusing to hand over criminals to ICE. There is
a new whistleblower that has also come forward in Denver.
The city of Denver now being forced to release videos
showing ICE agents chasing down and arresting a suspected major

(07:50):
cartel gang member who had just been literally released from jail.
Why was he released? Denver refused to hand him over
to ICE inside the safety of the facility due to
their sanctuary policies. Instead, this criminal was street released and
fled upon seeing the ICE agents outside waiting. ICE says

(08:11):
he assaulted an agent while being taken into custody. The
local Channel nine news reported that ICE requested a forty
eight hour heads up on this man's release he was
a high value target, but they received that notification from
the Denver jail just ninety minutes before he walked out
the front door. Now, ICE says it makes no sense

(08:32):
for sanctuary policies to ban the transfer of these hardcore
criminals inside the jail, where it is safer for everyone,
including the individual wanted by ICE. In this case. By
the way, six ICE officers had to show up to
apprehend the uncoughed gang member after he was released from

(08:53):
the Denver jail literally walking out the front door. Denver
Mike Johnson says he reached out to Ice yesterday and
is asking to sit down with him to discuss the
quote best procedures moving forward. In translation this Denver Mayor
Johnson wants to discuss the best procedures when he already
knows what they are. What would the best procedure be?

(09:15):
Stop releasing criminal legal aliens from your jails, especially when
you receive an ICE detainer. It's just common sense. There's
literally nothing else to discuss. And the question voters should
be asking themselves now is what side are the mayors
actually on, on the side of your safety or are
they siding with the drug cartels?

Speaker 3 (09:36):
And here is story number three.

Speaker 1 (09:37):
It is some of the most shocking news that we've
seen thus far, finding out exactly how bad it got
under Joe Biden's leadership, especially in twenty twenty four, when
it comes to releasing people that are terrorists or connected
to known terrorists deliberately and purposely into the United States
of America when we had them caught. President Joe Biden's deputies,

(10:00):
we now have learned have released almost one hundred terror
linked migrants into America's communities. In twenty twenty four, this
coming from Tulsa Gabbert, President Donald Trump named the Director
of National Intelligence. She had a press conference in Eagle Pass, Texas,
at the southern border, with the Vice President by her side,

(10:20):
and here is what she had to say about the
shocking new news.

Speaker 4 (10:24):
Pump has been in office. Really, what you're seeing here today.

Speaker 7 (10:27):
And what you'll continue to see as a unified effort
across President Trump's National security team, the Department of Homeland
Security towards our mission, which is to ensure a safe, free,
and prosperous society for Americans. As Director of National Intelligence, there.

Speaker 4 (10:42):
Are a number of areas where we are focused.

Speaker 7 (10:44):
The President talked about in his speech. Over twenty one
million people have come across our borders illegally under Joe
Biden's administration. There are many of them that we don't
know who they are. They have not been vetted, we
don't know where they are. I'll give you one quick
example of one of the problems that we are getting
after from Central Asia. There were over four thousand people
who came across our borders using an ISIS affiliated network.

(11:09):
Our National counter Terrorism Center went through and identified those individuals.

Speaker 4 (11:13):
There were hundreds of them who.

Speaker 7 (11:15):
Were either known terrorists or associated with known terrorists. That
information was provided to the Biden administration. You may remember
in some of the news a little over one hundred
of those people were arrested.

Speaker 4 (11:25):
In twenty twenty four.

Speaker 7 (11:28):
Of those who were arrested, only eight were either deported
or remained in custody only eight. The rest of them
were released back into our country. Where are they, what
are they doing? What may they be plotting? This is
just the beginning. There are many, many areas that we
need to stay very focused on, working with Department of
Homeland Security, working with the FBI to ensure that we're

(11:50):
keeping the American people safe. Our counter Terrorism Center is
working on making sure that we have that single source
for vetting so that we can figure out who is
actually in our country and identify those who pose a
threat and get them removed. The President's designation of the
cartels as foreign terrorist organizations falls directly into this, especially
as we're seeing some of the tactics that these cartels

(12:11):
are using reflect some of the tactics that we've seen
used by Islamus terrorists in countries that many of us
have served in overseas. Our mission is very clear. Our
objective is to keep the American people safe. I'm grateful
to be a part of this team that President Trump
has assembled to accomplish that mission.

Speaker 4 (12:27):
Thank you.

Speaker 1 (12:29):
So let's dive into some of the facts of what
she just said. From Central Asia, there were over four
thousand people who came across her border using an ISIS
affiliated network. She then said, our National counter Terrorism Center
went through and identified those individuals. There were one hundreds
of them who were either known terrorists or directly associated

(12:49):
with known terrorists. The information was provided directly to the
Biden administration. And what do they do. Nothing. In fact,
they said, let them go into the United States of
America's interior. Now, most of you right now that are
listening to this are probably very angry over the fact
that the Biden administration knew they had terrorists that they
had caught and they said not just let them go.

(13:10):
The question you have to ask yourself is why. Well,
partly because they didn't want to have to admit that
their open border policy was allowing for known terrorists to
come into the United States of America at record numbers.
And if they held these terrorists they were going to
have to tell the American people that they had, in fact,
caught about one hundred terrorists coming across the southern border.
Now there's also a bigger problem, and that is foreign

(13:33):
countries allowing the transit of illegal immigrants into America. Well,
the President of the United States of America has empowered
the Secretary of State, Marco Rubio to announce a new policy,
a policy going after those foreign countries and penalizing them.
Any country that allows the transit of illegal immigrants will
now be penalized by the United States of America. The

(13:55):
moral of the story, Donald Trump is going on offense
and exposing exactly what the administration did to put many
of our lives at risk. We also know that many
of these terrorists are being hunted down right now by
Ice agents and our government at all levels. This is
exactly why the President said it is time for us
to secure the border at all costs, because yes, there

(14:17):
are some bad own brakes who are coming across the border,
many of them who are actual terrorists.
