for the attack at Brown University? Operation Overlord the d

(01:51):
We'll explain it all. It's the forty seven Morning Update
and it starts right now.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Story number one.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
Tragedies happening all over the world. President Donald Trump talking
to the American people, being honest about what just happened.
Donald Trump addressing the attacks at the White House, the
attacks in Syria that cost Americans their lives, the attacks
at Brown University, and the attacks in Australia. The politics
(02:21):
of this already playing out as Democrats are blaming Donald
Trump for several of these attacks without any evidence, of course,
to back that up, and Democrats wasting no time using
these tragedies to push their political agenda, demanding that we
ban all ARS fifteen style weapons, even though at Brown University,
(02:43):
what we've been told so far is that there was
two handguns that were used. If that is the case,
then they want to pass the law and the name
of people that died at Brown that would have not
had any impact on saving their lives. I want you
to listen to what President Trump had to say of
the trio tax and what do you have to say
about what we need to do moving forward.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
And before we begin, however, I want to just pay
my respects to the people. Unfortunately two are no longer
with us Brown University, nine injured and two are looking
down on us right now from heaven. And likewise, in Australia,
(03:25):
as you know, that was a terrible attack. Eleven did,
twenty nine badly wounded, and that was an antisemitic attack obviously,
and that I just want to pay my respects to everybody,
I must say. In Syria also we had an attack
in Syria and we had three great patriots terminated by
(03:46):
bad people and not the Syrian government. It was isis
Syrian government fought by our side. The new president fought
by our side. But I just want to pay my
respects to the families. We also had three injured, but
two of them are already out of the hospital and
one's going to be okay. But we lost three, so
it was a rough it was a rough day. But
(04:08):
to Australia and the Prime Minister, to everybody that we
know so well, we get along with so well, we
have a great relationship. That's a terrible situation going on
over there. Think of that. And Brown University, great school,
great really one of the greatest schools anywhere in the world.
Things can happen. So to the nine injured, get well fast,
(04:32):
and to the families of those two that are no
longer with us. I pay my deepest regards and respects
from the United States of America. Thank you very much.
It's a very important thing to.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
Say, and.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
We mean it. I can tell you in Syria there
will be a lot of damage done to the people
that did it. They got the person, the individual person,
but there'll be big damage done. And the other supposedly
they call them a person of interest. So I'll keep
it along those lines. So we don't get ourselves in
any trouble, but they have a person of interest at
(05:08):
Brown and in Australia. You probably read it's been a
very brave person actually who went and attacked frontally one
of the shooters and saved a lot of lives. So
very brave person who's right now in the hospital, pretty
seriously wounded. So I great respect to that man that
(05:29):
did that. But we're here for a different reason. We're
here to celebrate Christmas and to celebrate and I think
today we converse a loudly, we celebrate Hanukkah because that
was such a horrible attack. That was a purely anti
Semitic attack.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
The President United States of America pausing from the celebration
at the White House to address all of those attacks.
We look at the attack at Brown University. First shooting
occurred at Brown University in Province Rhode Island during the
second day of final exam week. The attack taking place
in the Barras and Hollybuilding, which housed the School of
(06:06):
Engineering and Physics. Shots were fired inside a classroom during
exam review session. We know that two people were killed
as a result of the shooting. Nine others were wounded.
Most were students. One injured person was hit by fragments
rather than a direct bullet. Some of the wounded are
in critical but stable condition, and at least one remains
in critical care. Authorities have detained a person of interest
(06:30):
in connection with the shooting, and you heard the President
mention that a moment ago. The person of interest has
described now as a twenty four year old man from Wisconsin.
He was apprehended at a hotel in Rhode Island, about
fifteen to seventeen miles from the Brown campus. Two firearms
were found as possession, including one they say with a
laser sight, but officials have yet to formally charge him
(06:51):
or confirm his role as the actual shooter. Law enforcement
we know, including province PD, state agencies, the FBIATS have
been involved in the investigation. Security footage has been released
showing the suspect walking near the campus, though his face
was not clearly visible in the early videos. There was
also initial confusion occurred regarding an arrest on Saturday evening.
(07:15):
One person initially detained was later released after being determined
unrelated to that shooting. Even though many on social media
said we've got the shooter, that was not the case.
We also know that Brown University activated shelter and place
alert during the shooting, and after the shooting, students hit
under desks under with the lights turned off, waiting for
(07:35):
police instructions. The campus lockdown was eventually lifted on Sunday morning.
Brown has canceled the remaining classes, remaining exams, and final
assignments for the semester. In the aftermath of the horrific shooting,
the university president, Christina Packson, called the events devastating and
know the community was in mourning. National local leaders have
condemned the violence and offered support, including statements from elected
(07:59):
officials and community vigils that are popping up. Brown University
is an Ivy League institution located in the College Hill
neighborhood of Providence. Preliminary reports indicate the shooter targeted an
active academic setting, making this one of the most serious
canvas shootings in recent US history. And what are Democrats
now saying? Going straight to politics? Senator Chris Murphy now
(08:22):
blaming the Brown shooting on Donald Trump, saying Donald Trump
is the man that is campaigning to increase violence in
this country. This coming from the Democratic Party, the same
Democratic Party that's fighting against Donald Trump taking out violent
criminals in many different cities that they run, places like Memphis,
(08:44):
places like Chicago, places like Minneapolis, Saint Paul. And yet
when Donald Trump does everything you can to get violent
criminals off the street, they attack the president, stand in
his way and try to stop him no matter what.
These are the same democrats that demonize law enforce, ice agents,
the FBI. The list goes on and on. But when
(09:04):
there's an actual attack that takes place on a college
campus that was a again, a liberal gun free zone
that didn't work. It was a failure yet again. In fact,
gun free zones are a failure one hundred percent of
the time when someone decides to break that rule, Chris
Murphy doesn't look at that. No, Instead, he says it
is time to attack Trump, saying that Donald Trump's campaign
(09:28):
is to increase violence in this country. Democrats also calling
for gun control laws and the banning of guns that
weren't even used in the attack based on the information
we know, because what do they say, never let a
crisis go to waste. So here we are with the
President of United States of America standing up yet again
(09:49):
for what's right in this country. There is now reports
out that the attacker was yelling a la ogbar. I
just want to throw that out there for you. Of course,
you know that's certainly something we're not allowed to talk about, right.
We have to keep that PC. That's that's that is,
That's not something that the police want you to know.
Right if if if that I like, that is that
(10:10):
that's That's just part of this conversation. We're not allowed
to have, folks. You can't you can't talk about a
radical religion. And now it's completely incompetent or incapable of
mingling with freedom, not just in America, anywhere around the
world where there's freedom and democras. It's incredibly frustrating. It
is beyond frustrating. It drives me insane because political correctness
(10:34):
is going to undo the United States of America. I
want you to listen to what the police said about
this attack at Brown University, and I'm gonna go on
a limb and say, I'm guessing it has something to
do with al Now, I don't want to say that. No, No,
they're going to say the guy just said something, but
we're not gonna tell you anything about it.
Speaker 4 (10:50):
Again, my condolences and thought some prayers with the families
that were impacted by these actions. So yes, the main stated,
we have detained someone of interest, but respect and to
protect the integrity of the investigation, I would only be
limited in my details. The next process for us is
what we do best and our detectives, is to coordinate
with the prosecutors to collect evidence, to conduct interviews, and
(11:13):
then from there we'll be able to when it's appropriate
and accurate, to share more details with you all. But
I'm pleased to say that the mayor stated the collaboration
between our federal partners, our different municipalities in the state,
it's all hends on deck. And you know when this
instance in the city that's chacter conscious, we know for
a fact that we just stay up and the federal agents,
(11:35):
the federal partners, I want to thank them for their resistance,
but as well every single municipality, the state police, and
every other chief in the state. We came together as
a small state. It impacted a lot of us the
incident that occurred, and so again I'm just happy to
share with you that we're in the process now of
coordinating with prosecution, conducting interviews and being able to collect evidence.
(11:58):
So that we can protect the integrity of the investigation
and that we can hold the individuals accountable for their action.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
Police have a suspect of the mass shooting at Brown University,
but they're refusing to provide the suspect's age, race, or motive,
only stating the shooter yelled something quote unquote before the
attack and that the weapon used has a unique characteristic
on it. So why would they not tell us that
it's got a Fox News channel. I'll give you another
perspective of what journalism sounds.
Speaker 5 (12:25):
Like and called into police. I mean, the reality is
is that this is a seven story physics and engineering
building that was unlocked, but this individual went to a
specific classroom that was essentially in a study session for
an exam on economics and chose that classroom. And we
know from a witness inside that this gunman yelled something.
(12:45):
We don't know what this individual yelled and then began shooting.
We also know that this person reportedly used a handgun,
so a lot of questions also as to whether or
not they recovered that handgun or what kind of ballistics
evidence may have led them for perhaps to this individual
as well. So we have more questions than answers other
than the fact that we know the lockdown has been lifted,
(13:07):
and at least according to the mayor, this community can
breathe a sigh of relief, but hopefully we hope to
find out more than the coming hours.
Speaker 3 (13:15):
It's amazing Fox News has to report the news the
way that the police told it. That's what journalism is.
They won't tell the journalists what was actually said. Now
what Democrats will do instead of telling you the motive
or what the man yelled. I'm going to guess had
something to do with Allah going to go out in
a limb here. If I'm wrong, I'll be the first
to apologize. But Democrats don't want you to know what
(13:36):
he yelled. Instead, what they do want to do is
they want to tell you that somehow the Brown University
shooting is the fault of Donald Trump. Never let a
crisis go to way. Senator Chris Murphy said this Onstad
of the Union.
Speaker 6 (13:48):
Not shocking because over the last year President Trump has
been engaged in a dizzying campaign to increase violence in
this country. He's restoring gun rights to felons and people
who have lost their ability to buy guns. He eliminated
the White House Office of Gun Violence Protection, and he
has stopped funding mental health grants and community anti gun
(14:10):
violence grants that Republicans and Democrats supported in that twenty
twenty two bill. So he has been engaged in a
pretty deliberate campaign to try to make violence more likely
in this country. And I think you're unfortunately going to
see the results of that on the streets of America.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
That's a pretty big statement.
Speaker 7 (14:28):
He's in a campaign to make violence more likely, of.
Speaker 6 (14:31):
Course, I mean he's knowingly restoring gun rights to dangerous people.
He is cutting off grants that have bipartisan support try
to interrupt violence in our cities, or to try to
get necessary mental health resources to families and children in need.
The evidence tells you that when you stop funding mental health,
(14:54):
when you stop funding community anti gun violence programs, when
you give gun rights back to dangerous people, you are
going to have and increase in violence that is knowable
and that is foreseeable.
Speaker 3 (15:03):
That is your Democratic Party. And if that's not enough,
I go back to gun violence. O. No, no, Now over
at CNN, John Miller, he's now wanting you to be
afraid of lasers. So that's the next thing they're going
to want to ban forget guns now, No, no, we
want to ban lasers on guns. Like a laser pointer
is what it is.
Speaker 7 (15:23):
Listen, at four o'clock in the morning, hit this hotel
room in Coventry and took this man into custody. What
we're told from law enforcement sources now is that they
seize two firearms from this twenty four year old suspect.
One of those firearms, we are told was equipped with
a laser site device. This has significance because number one,
(15:44):
that's a fairly sophisticated device for a handgun.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
Where by the way, that's a lie. It is not
the idea of this is a sophisticated device. That is
what like making blank up really is like pathological liar.
People use these things to play with cats and make
videos on the internet, folks. That's how advanced they are. Okay, Like,
(16:08):
if we're gonna if we're gonna listen to crazy people
say crazy things, then we should really just talk about
how stupid they are. That is how stupid this guy is.
He is sitting there trying to convince you that a
product you can buy on Amazon that you use to
play with cats is a quote very sophisticated thing. I
(16:33):
go back to what I was saying a moment ago.
This is total insanity by the radical left who sit
there and they try to tell you. Every time some
of this happens, don't ask the right question. No, no, no, no,
ask a different one. What gun should we be getting
rid of today? Now it's red dots and lasers, because
we should get rid of those today.

the federal partners, I want to thank them for their resistance,
but as well every single municipality, the state police, and
every other chief in the state. We came together as
a small state. It impacted a lot of us the
incident that occurred, and so again I'm just happy to
share with you that we're in the process now of
coordinating with prosecution, conducting interviews and being able to collect evidence.
(11:58):
So that we can protect the integrity of the investigation
and that we can hold the individuals accountable for their action.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
Police have a suspect of the mass shooting at Brown University,
but they're refusing to provide the suspect's age, race, or motive,
only stating the shooter yelled something quote unquote before the
attack and that the weapon used has a unique characteristic
on it. So why would they not tell us that
it's got a Fox News channel. I'll give you another
perspective of what journalism sounds.
Speaker 5 (12:25):
Like and called into police. I mean, the reality is
is that this is a seven story physics and engineering
building that was unlocked, but this individual went to a
specific classroom that was essentially in a study session for
an exam on economics and chose that classroom. And we
know from a witness inside that this gunman yelled something.
(12:45):
We don't know what this individual yelled and then began shooting.
We also know that this person reportedly used a handgun,
so a lot of questions also as to whether or
not they recovered that handgun or what kind of ballistics
evidence may have led them for perhaps to this individual
as well. So we have more questions than answers other
than the fact that we know the lockdown has been lifted,
(13:07):
and at least according to the mayor, this community can
breathe a sigh of relief, but hopefully we hope to
find out more than the coming hours.
Speaker 3 (13:15):
It's amazing Fox News has to report the news the
way that the police told it. That's what journalism is.
They won't tell the journalists what was actually said. Now
what Democrats will do instead of telling you the motive
or what the man yelled. I'm going to guess had
something to do with Allah going to go out in
a limb here. If I'm wrong, I'll be the first
to apologize. But Democrats don't want you to know what
(13:36):
he yelled. Instead, what they do want to do is
they want to tell you that somehow the Brown University
shooting is the fault of Donald Trump. Never let a
crisis go to way. Senator Chris Murphy said this Onstad
of the Union.
Speaker 6 (13:48):
Not shocking because over the last year President Trump has
been engaged in a dizzying campaign to increase violence in
this country. He's restoring gun rights to felons and people
who have lost their ability to buy guns. He eliminated
the White House Office of Gun Violence Protection, and he
has stopped funding mental health grants and community anti gun
(14:10):
violence grants that Republicans and Democrats supported in that twenty
twenty two bill. So he has been engaged in a
pretty deliberate campaign to try to make violence more likely
in this country. And I think you're unfortunately going to
see the results of that on the streets of America.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
That's a pretty big statement.
Speaker 7 (14:28):
He's in a campaign to make violence more likely, of.
Speaker 6 (14:31):
Course, I mean he's knowingly restoring gun rights to dangerous people.
He is cutting off grants that have bipartisan support try
to interrupt violence in our cities, or to try to
get necessary mental health resources to families and children in need.
The evidence tells you that when you stop funding mental health,
(14:54):
when you stop funding community anti gun violence programs, when
you give gun rights back to dangerous people, you are
going to have and increase in violence that is knowable
and that is foreseeable.
Speaker 3 (15:03):
That is your Democratic Party. And if that's not enough,
I go back to gun violence. O. No, no, Now over
at CNN, John Miller, he's now wanting you to be
afraid of lasers. So that's the next thing they're going
to want to ban forget guns now, No, no, we
want to ban lasers on guns. Like a laser pointer
is what it is.
Speaker 7 (15:23):
Listen, at four o'clock in the morning, hit this hotel
room in Coventry and took this man into custody. What
we're told from law enforcement sources now is that they
seize two firearms from this twenty four year old suspect.
One of those firearms, we are told was equipped with
a laser site device. This has significance because number one,
(15:44):
that's a fairly sophisticated device for a handgun.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
Where by the way, that's a lie. It is not
the idea of this is a sophisticated device. That is
what like making blank up really is like pathological liar.
People use these things to play with cats and make
videos on the internet, folks. That's how advanced they are. Okay, Like,
(16:08):
if we're gonna if we're gonna listen to crazy people
say crazy things, then we should really just talk about
how stupid they are. That is how stupid this guy is.
He is sitting there trying to convince you that a
product you can buy on Amazon that you use to
play with cats is a quote very sophisticated thing. I
(16:33):
go back to what I was saying a moment ago.
This is total insanity by the radical left who sit
there and they try to tell you. Every time some
of this happens, don't ask the right question. No, no, no, no,
ask a different one. What gun should we be getting
rid of today? Now it's red dots and lasers, because
we should get rid of those today.
