Speaker 1 (00:01):
This is the first that we are hearing from President Trump.
Yesterday's horrific attack and Border Colorado will not be tolerated
in the United States of America. He came in through
Biden's ridiculous open border policy, which has hurt our country
so badly acts of terrorism whill we prosecuted to the
fullest extent of the log My heart goes out to
(00:21):
the victims and the great people of Border Colorado.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
You're listening to the forty seven Morning Update with Ben ferguson.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
Good Tuesday morning. It's so nice to have you with
us on the forty seven Morning Update, and we've got
some very big news for you. So I'm going to
say at the beginning, please make sure that you share
this podcast wherever you can. Also it hit the subscribe
or auto download button so you do not miss an episode.
Story number one is going to shock you, and it's
(00:50):
one that the media is not wanting you to know about.
It is the evidence now that we have that Barack
Obama ordered the FBI and the DOJAY to not charge
Hillary Clinton with any crimes when it came to her
email server or massive amounts of classified information that she
mishandled In fact, the Clinton team knew there was no
(01:13):
way she'd ever be charged with any crime, and James Comey,
the FBI director, was in on it as well. I'll
have all those details for you in just a moment.
Speaking of the media line, we also are going to
cover what's going on in Colorado, and more information about
a radical terrorist and his plan to kill Jewish, innocent
(01:35):
elderly people. And finally, one of the biggest frauds in
American government history, this time dealing with food stamps, has
been uncovered, and you'll be angry to find out just
how much of your tax money was stolen. It's the
forty seven Morning Update and it starts right now.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
Story number one.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
There are shocking new allegations that the FBI and the
Depot Department of Justice were ordered by Barack Obama not
to arrest Hillary Clinton for espionage and violation of eighteen
US Code seven ninety three. In fact, Barack Obama effectively
served as Hillary Clinton's personal lawyer. And there's a reason
(02:19):
why this story I'm telling you right now is not
going viral. In fact, there's silence in the media on
this issue, and that's exactly why I want you to
share this podcast wherever you can so that we can
get these details out. Here's what we know. Former FBI
lawyer at least A Page testified before Congress that the
(02:41):
DOJ advise the FBI not to pursue charges against Clinton
for gross negligence in handling classified information. Page stated that
the DOJ considered the term quote gross negligent to be
constitutionally vague, influencing the decision not to proceed with this
specific charge. The FBI Director James Commey, in a twenty
(03:04):
sixteen press conference, described Clinton's actions as quote extremely careless,
but concluded that quote no reasonable prosecutor would bring such
a case, recommending that no charges be filed. Why did
he say that, because he was also protecting the Clinton family.
President Barack Obama publicly stated that he guaranteed there would
(03:27):
be no political influence in the FBI investigation of the
Clinton emails, emphasizing that evidence, not politics, would dictate the outcome.
But behind closed doors, he did the complete opposite of
that with the new allegations that are coming forward. In fact,
I want you to hear this report from Fox News
(03:47):
and Brett Baer.
Speaker 4 (03:48):
Right about what the Obama Justice Department ordered federal lawyers
to do and not to do concerning the Hillary Clinton
email investigation. Chief Intelligence correspondent Katherine Harris tells us in
sworn to testimony on Capitol Hill, one of the insiders
told lawmakers what she was told.
Speaker 5 (04:05):
During closed door testimony last summer. Former FBI lawyer Lisa
Paige said the Obama administration's Justice Department advised the FBI
not to pursue the gross negligent statute for Hillary Clinton
in the mishandling of classified information. Former US attorney and
House Republican John Radcliffe led the line of questioning about
the statute, known as eighteen USC. Seven ninety three. Ratcliffe,
(04:28):
you're making it sound like it was the department that
told you you're not going to charge gross negligence because
we're the prosecutors, Paige interrupted, that is correct. Page's testimony
appears to conflict with then FBI Director James Comey's recommendation
in July twenty sixteen against criminal charges for Clinton.
Speaker 6 (04:45):
What I can assure the American people is that this
investigation was done honestly, confidently, and independently. No outside influence
of any kind was brought to bear.
Speaker 5 (04:55):
The Republican Ledhouse Oversight and Judiciary Committee investigation and didn't. January,
with Democrats now in control, the committee's new ranking Republican
made the page transcript public.
Speaker 7 (05:06):
The transcript releases show an inherent two tier system, one
in which Hillary Clinton gets the treatment that she got
where they was actually at first concern that they were
going to charge her, and then with Loretta Lynch in
charge before she recused herself, made it very clear that
that was not going to happen.
Speaker 5 (05:20):
The tip off came from a chart drawn up by
federal investigators assigned to the Clinton case, known as Meteor Exam.
Fox News has confirmed that the chart listed possible federal
statutes for prosecution. Next to gross negligence was a notation
quote DOJ not willing to charge this. Only known cases
are military cases when accused lost the information. In response
(05:40):
to the page revelations, the President tweeted the transcripts quote
make the Obama Justice Department look exactly like it was
a broken and corrupt machine. The page transcript also confirms
Fox's earlier reporting. The page testified Russia collusion was still
unproven when Special Counsel Robert Muller was appointed.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
So let's just recap the as we know them now.
Number One, the FBI and the DOJ were ordered by
Barack Obama to not arrest Hillary Clinton. Why because they
were protecting her at all costs. Number Two, James Comey
deliberately lied to the American people days before the election
in twenty sixteen, and yes, he was also protecting the
(06:21):
Clinton family at Barack Obama's orders. The CIA, John Radcliffe
sang quote Lisa Page confirmed to me under oath that
the FBI was ordered by the Obama DOJ not to
consider charging Hillary Clinton. In other words, no matter what
crime she committed, no matter what she did with her emails,
(06:43):
no matter what she didn't destroying them, no matter what
servers they were on, and no matter how much classified
information she had in her possession that she was not
supposed to have in a laptop or in emails or
on a private server, it didn't matter. The FBI, under
Barack Obama's orders, was never going to charge Hillary Clinton
(07:06):
with anything, whether it was gross negligence or the mishandling
of classified information. All of this goes back to the
single issue how much were we lied to in this
country by a corrupt deep state that was led by
Barack Obama. Well, now we know just how bad it
actually was. Next story number two, there's one thing that
(07:30):
we know for sure. The media lied to us about
the Egyptian illegal who let innocent people on fire in Boulder, Colorado.
We also know that the police chief in Boulder, Colorado
played politics and didn't want to tell you the truth
about this being a terrorist act. Well, that's not all
they're covering up, and that's part of the reason why
we do this show so you know exactly what is
(07:52):
happening in this investigation. One thing is for sure is
the Egyptian illegal immigrant who was led into this country
during the Biden administration said he quote wanted to kill
all Zionis people and had planned the attack for at
least a year. Mohammed Soliman has just been charged with
a federal hate crime. Here is more of what we've
(08:14):
learned from my good friends at Fox and Kaylee Mcanany.
Speaker 8 (08:18):
We have some new details federal authorities releasing the charges
for the man accused of setting eight people on fire
and that targeted terror attack in Boulder, Colorado. Officials say
he's now being charged with a hate crime. That's federally
and this is what they found. They found at least
fourteen unlit molotov cocktails on his person, along with that
makeshift flamethrower. The molotovs comprised of glass wine caraff bottles
(08:42):
or ball jars containing clear liquid and red rags hanging
out of the bottles. He made these himself. In fact,
it says that he researched on YouTube how to do this,
and later during an interview with the officials, the suspects stated, outright,
and he's talking. He stated he wanted to quote kill
all Zionist people and wished they were all dead. He
(09:02):
also stated that he would do it again emily. He
also said during the Center Mean he specifically targeted the
Zionist group that had gathered in Boulder. He knew they
planned to meet that day, Sunday at one pm. He
arrived at twelve fifty five and waited for them.
Speaker 9 (09:16):
I love that. He also said that he's been planning
this attack for over a year, but he wanted to
wait until his daughter graduated because he gets to make
that choice. But what about the choice of the Jewish
victims who don't get to make a choice when they
are attacked, or don't get to make a choice if
they die, which, by the way, there with an attempt
to murder them. The hate crime charge brings a life
imprisoned sentence, which I hope he gets. This is so foul.
(09:38):
And he also said that he learned on YouTube how
to make a molotov cocktail. This is what is being
fomented right now that someone has the audacity, the ability,
and the actionable information to molotov cocktail and then flamethrow
against peaceful Jewish citizens and gets the luxury of doing
so after his daughter graduates, after he drives across the
country and builds his molotov with gas at the gas station.
(10:01):
This is absolutely unacceptable. We know that there are questions
surrounding his identity, given that he's for some reason twenty
one on his identification, he shouldn't have been in this country,
and now people are suffering for it horrifically, including a
Holocaust survivor. As you pointed out earlier.
Speaker 3 (10:15):
A Holocaust survivor is one of the victims of this individual.
So the question you have to ask yourself is this,
why is the media still covering up this story? Why
are they not wanting to tell you that the terrorist
suspect said quote he would do it again and showed
no remorse to those as he was speaking in law enforcement.
(10:38):
This also brings up another big story. We also have
the largest ICE ray that's just been conducted, resulting in
over fourteen hundred illegals being arrested in Massachusetts, and the
question is how many more terrorists are out there that
came to this country illegally, just like Mohammed Soliman, the
man who came from Egypt. Well, take a listen to
(11:00):
what the ICE director had to say when talking about
why they were forced to go into Massachusetts and do
a massive cleanup.
Speaker 10 (11:08):
In the meantime, in Massachusetts, you had I think the
largest ever raid or at least a netting of arrests
of one thy four hundred and sixty one people. That's
the largest so far. And those that were arrested, seven
hundred and ninety of them had criminal convictions and two
hundred and seventy seven had what we were just talking about,
final orders of removal or deportation.
Speaker 8 (11:28):
Tell us Mark and Dana.
Speaker 11 (11:30):
It was a great operation and the fact that it
was over the course of a month really shows the
commitment of the men and women of vice here in
Massachusetts and all over New England, and we took a
whole government approach.
Speaker 7 (11:38):
We used all of our partners.
Speaker 11 (11:40):
To include diplomatic security, the US Marshall Service atf FBI
DEA to really locate and arrest these criminal aliens. One
highlight for this operation is the fact that it was
successful because we worked with our joint partners in a
sanctuary state like Massachusetts, where it's extremely difficult. Where we
had operations Tidal Wave last month in Florida, there was
(12:00):
a week long operation working with our state partners. That's
a state that cooperates with us. Here in Massachusetts, we
don't have any cooperations from local departments or from the state,
which makes it extremely difficult for ICE to get out
there and find these bad guys.
Speaker 3 (12:13):
You think about how many prospective terrorists are among us
that came across the border, and we're given, in essence,
the ability to stay here and protection from the Biden
Harrish regime. When you look at what's happening in Massachusetts
where the state and local authorities are refusing to take
out the bad guys, it tells you just how dangerous
it is for every America, no matter where you live.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
And here is story number three.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
It is a story that is shocking but becoming all
too normal. Six people, including a USDA employee, have been
busted and what is being described as a sixty six
million dollar food stamp fraud scheme. A USDA employee responsible
for identifying SNAP fraud allegedly sold hundreds of EBT numbers,
(13:02):
enabling over thirty six million in fraudulent SNAP redemptions at
unauthorized stores. Michael Keyo reportedly orchestrated network that supplied the
approximately one hundred and sixty unauthorized EBT terminals to stores
across the New York area to illegally process more than
(13:24):
thirty million in EBT transactions. This is now going down
in history as one of the largest food stamp frauds ever.
The USDA employee and five others that have been now
charged in the multimillion dollar food stamp fraud and bribery
scheme are being looked at for exactly what they are
con artists that had access within our government to pull
(13:48):
this off. The question now is where else could this
be done around the country and how much of your
tax dollars are being stolen by fraudulent terminals and fake
people and fake food stamps that are actually just going
to let people get extremely rich. There is one good thing.
It's very clear now that the Trump administration is going
(14:11):
all in to find this type of waste, fraud and abuse.
And yes, Elon Musk may have moved on from what
was always going to be a temporary role with DOGE,
but it doesn't mean that the work is stopping anytime soon,
and this is a perfect example of it.
