Speaker 1 (00:00):
Now I think we're gonna have a lot of big wins.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
I don't know if it's gonna be covered that way
by the big news, but the winds are gonna be
very substantial.

Speaker 1 (00:07):
You know, we're losing. We were losing.

Speaker 3 (00:10):
Five million a day.

Speaker 1 (00:11):
I've got that number way down, and soon it's going
to be very, very positive. We'll be making five millions.

Speaker 4 (00:18):
You're listening to the forty seven Morning Update with Ben Ferguson.

Speaker 1 (00:21):
Good Tuesday morning. Welcome. It is Ben Ferguson with you,
and it's so nice to have you on the forty
seven Morning Update. And here are the three big stories
that we're covering today. First up, we are one hundred
days officially right now into the Trump administration, and we
now have some of the intel on just how secure
the southern border has become, because Donald Trump's promised to

(00:44):
do exactly that, secure the southern border no matter what.
Up next, we'll also talk about how the media lost
their minds as they put up posters on the White
House lawn showing the violent criminals that have been arrested
since Trump has been in office. On that in just
a second. And finally, so what are the Democrats doing
one hundred days into the Trump administration, they're calling for

(01:08):
impeachment of Donald Trump. Yes, official articles of impeachment apparently
from Congress. It's the forty seven Morning Update and it
starts right now.

Speaker 4 (01:18):
Story number one.

Speaker 1 (01:19):
Today is a very important day in the administration of
Donald Trump. The first hundred days is officially here. And
the question that everyone asks, well, was it worth it?
Did we vote for the right man? And is he
doing what he promised he was going to do. Well,
We're going to take a special look at the first
hundred days of the president. We're going to start with

(01:40):
this promise to secure the southern border. President Donald Trump
delivered on his campaign promises to secure the US border,
achieving historic reductions in illegal crossings and apprehensions of dangerous criminals.
His administration has implemented tough policies, including designating violent gangs
as foreign terrace organizations and resuming border wall construction, to

(02:05):
enhance national security and public safety. Through mass deportation operations
and targeted enforcement, the administration has now arrested over one
hundred and fifty thousand illegal immigrants, including gang members and criminals,
while drastically reducing the number of unaccompanied minors also crossing

(02:25):
the southern border. In fact, illegal border encounters are down
ninety five percent in the first hundred days of Trump
being in office. Ninety nine point nine to nine percent
is a very important number. It deals with catch and release.
From the worst month of Joe Biden to where we
are now, it is down ninety nine point nine nine percent. Now.

(02:48):
President Trump has taken decisive action to eliminate sanctuary cities
as well and cut federal benefits for illegal immigrants, redirecting
resources instead to support American citizens, putting us first. Trump's
administration has also invoked the Alien Enemies Act to dismantle

(03:08):
migrant criminal networks and also to shut down immigration apps
used to exploit the system. With measures like the Lake
and Riley Act and executive orders to streamline border security,
it is clear in the first one hundred days that
Donald Trump's policies have literally transformed the border into the
most secure in modern American history. Now, you don't have

(03:31):
to take my word for it. Since President Donald Trump
took office, he and his administration have ushered in the
most secure border in modern American history, and he didn't
need legislation to do it. President Trump has made good
on the promise he made on the campaign trail to
usher in the unprecedented error of homeland security being a priority.

(03:53):
Now I said a moment ago. You don't have to
take my word for it. Just take a listen to
what the media has said in their reporting of just
how quickly things have changed now. The President also made
this promise when he was running for president, saying, quote,
we will close the border. We will stop the invasion
of illegal aliens into our country. He said that in Aurora, Colorado,

(04:15):
September twelfth of twenty twenty four, when he was making
his closing arguments to the American people of why they
should vote for him. Well, let's talk about that promise
that has been kept. Number One, illegal border encounters are
now down ninety five percent. Illegal immigrant got aways, the
top threat to public safety, are down ninety nine percent.

(04:36):
And then the media is backing up what the president
is saying. Fox News correspondent Bill Malusian put it this way.
Quote if Fox were to send me down there right now,
I would have trouble finding a single migrant on camera.
CBS immigration reporter saying it this way. Typically, when we
go to the US Mexico border. We at least see

(04:58):
one group of people who are trying to cross into
the US illegally. We did not see a single migrant
this time. The Wall Street Journal saying it this way,
border crossings grind to a halt as Trump's tough policies
take hold. Bloomberg said it this way, US bound migration
plunges ninety nine percent along the Panama Jungle route, as

(05:21):
people from all over the world clearly know that now
is not a time to come to America. The Washington
Times saying it this way. Under President Trump, border catch
and release has dropped ninety nine point nine to nine
percent from worse Biden month, and the Los Angeles Times
putting it this way, California Mexico border, once overwhelmed, now

(05:43):
nearly empty. Yes, the President United States of America paid
off on this campaign promise to secure the border, and
he did it in his first hundred days Now story
number two. The White House on Monday morning made it
very clear that they wanted to remind the American peak
full of exactly who they are arresting in the first
hundred days of the administration, and on Monday morning, images

(06:07):
of the worst criminal illegal immigrants arrested since President Donald J.
Trump took office were placed on the lawn of the
White House for the world to see. Why, Because they
want to highlight the Trump administration's unprecedented effort to secure
our home land and send these vicious criminals back to
where they belong. The White House said, we want you

(06:28):
to meet the worst. The media, of course lost their minds,
saying it was unfair to have the signs behind them
of these criminals while they're trying to do their live
shots from the lawn of the White House. Well, the
important thing is is that you meet the worst among us.
Here is an example of some of those that were
actually put out there on the lawn of the White

(06:50):
House with the boards, letting you know who this administration
is going after and more importantly, who the Biden administration
allowed to come into this country illegally and allowed to
stay here. I'll give you an example the arrest of
a Jamaican national convicted of first degree murder. Ice Baltimore
arrested a man, a fifty one year old citizen of Jamaica.

(07:11):
His criminal history includes convictions for murder first degree in
two counts of assault second degree in Prince George County
in Upper Marlboro, Maryland. Let's move on to someone else.
Another man arrested and convicted of rape. Ice Buffalo arrested
a forty nine year old citizen of Fosco. The criminal
history included a conviction for rape in New York County,

(07:33):
New York. Again someone that should have never been in
this country. Another arrest of a Mexican national convicted of
murder and aggravated battery. This time it was a man
that is forty three years old of Mexico. He has
a criminal history including convictions for murder and aggravated battery
in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Who should have never been
in this country. Or you can move on to an

(07:55):
Indian national convicted of aggravated sexual assault of a child.
Ice Houston arrested the man a citizen of India. His
criminal history includes a conviction for aggravated sexual assault of
a child in Harris County, Texas. There's also the arrest
of a Mexican national, a man who was convicted of
predatory sexual assault of a child. I Chicago arrested the

(08:17):
forty five year old citizen of Mexico with a criminal
history that includes a conviction for predatory criminal sexual assault
of a child in Cook County, Illinois. Again someone that
should have never been the country that the Biden administration
allowed to stay. We can move to the arrest of
a Mexican national also convicted of sexual assault of a child.
Ice Denver arrested a thirty six year old citizen of

(08:40):
Mexico with a criminal history that includes convictions of sexual assault,
sex offense against a child, obstructing police, and driving under
the influence of alcohol in Houston County, Texas. There's also
the arrest of Mexican national, a man convicted of sexual
abuse of a minor Ice. Chicago arrested the fifty seven

(09:01):
year old citizen of Mexico with a criminal history including
a conviction for aggravated criminal sexual abuse of a minor
in Illinois, also the arrest of a Salvadorian national convicted
of sex with a minor. Is San Francisco arrested the
forty year old citizen of El Salvador who has the
criminal history of including a conviction for sex with a

(09:22):
minor in San Mateo County, California. There's also the arrest
of a Mexican national convicted of sexual abuse of a
child is San Francisco, arresting that forty five year old
citizen of Mexico. Gomez's criminal history includes a conviction for
continuous sexual abuse of a child in San Bernardino County, California.
Arrest also of a Dominican national convicted of murder. Ice

(09:46):
Buffalo arrested the thirty four year old citizen of the
Dominican Republic with a criminal history including a conviction for
murder in New York County, New York. Also the arrest
of a Salvadorian national convicted of sexual offense with a child,
this time Ice Atlanta arrested the thirty two year old
cent of El Salvador with a criminal history including a

(10:06):
conviction for sexual offense with a child in Wake, North Carolina.
And then there's the arrest of a Mexican national convicted
conspiracy to distribute cocaine. Ice Houston arrested the sixty four
year old drug dealer, a citizen of Honduras with a
criminal history including a conviction for murder in Los Angeles County, California.

(10:26):
There's also the arrest of an Indian national convicted of
leude acts against a child under fourteen. Ice, San Francisco
arrested the thirty nine year old citizen of India. The
criminal history of this man includes a conviction for lude
acts against a child under fourteen in Sacramento, California. Then
there's the arrest of a Mexican national convicted of sexual

(10:48):
assault of a child. Ice Denver arrested the thirty six
year old, a citizen of Mexico. He is a registered
sex offender with criminal history which includes convictions for sexual
assault of a child and interference with school and fail
to leave in Lake County, Colorado, and a conviction for
theft in Summit County, Colorado. The list goes on and

(11:09):
on and on and on and on. Literally, it would
probably take me another forty five minutes of stories just
like these to tell you just that the pictures put
at the White House. So what did the media have
to say about this moment? Were they glad that these
criminals were taken off the streets in the US. They
were not. In fact, they were angry that the signs

(11:31):
were in their live shot. Take a listen to this
from MSNBC.

Speaker 2 (11:35):
Aria Teresa Kumar. Before we let you go, we want
to get your reaction to something that just occurred. The
White House has put up about one hundred posters of
what they say are unauthorized immigrants who have been arrested
for violent crimes. You could see them there. They put
them up on the driveway of the White House. If
you look here, that's the West Wing, just at the
forefront the Executive Mansion itself to the left. But what's

(11:56):
particularly noteworthy about this location is it is right directly
behind mind the positions where TV correspondents do their hits
from the White House lawnch So therefore, no matter what
network you're on that includes MSNBC, if you're doing a
hit from the White House right now, those pictures will
be behind you. The White House doing a briefing in
about a half hour about what they're doing here. Maria,

(12:19):
your response to this imagry.

Speaker 5 (12:21):
So, I have to say, one of the biggest challenges
that we have with the deportations that we know of
so far, for example with Kilmer, Bradam Garcia, we don't
know if they've had due process. We don't know if
in fact these individuals do have a wrap sheet. So
I would encourage those individuals that have that as a
backshot to blur those people out. The job of journalism

(12:43):
is to ensure that we are presenting the facts that
we are cross referencing. We know that polyfact actually checked
the Trump administration because of an earlier picture that they
released on Kilmer, recognizing that it was altered, that it
was false, that they placed gang signs on getting kit
signs tattoos on him, that that weren't real, And so

(13:04):
I would really the press right now we are absolutely
under attack. Our job is always to have our true north,
to make sure that we're presenting balanced news and making
sure that we are not putting folks that are potentially
in danger and having that representation of those pictures in
the background. We can't allow that to basically for us

(13:26):
to carry the water of potentially innocent people. So I
would encourage I recognize live shots are tough, but I
would encourage folks to actually make sure that those shots
are blurred to the best of your abilities.

Speaker 1 (13:36):
That's right, the media losing their minds demanding that the
mugshots of the people I just told you about are
blurred out to protect them instead of the American people.
So if you want to know if Donald Trump is
breaking the media, you better believe it. All you have
to do is listen that report and just one hundred
days in the most important part of the whole story
is these killers and those that are going after your

(13:59):
kids kids and selling drugs are being taken off the
streets at record numbers.

Speaker 4 (14:05):
And finally, story number three.

Speaker 1 (14:07):
As we hit the one hundred day mark of the
Trump administration, there's a question that has to be asked,
what are the Democrats doing one hundred days into Trump's administration. Well,
they're going back to their old playbook. The headline on
the one hundred days of Trump in office from the
Democrats is this idea introducing impeachment articles against Donald Trump.

(14:30):
What I'm about to play for you as an actual
Democratic congressman. And no, this is not a Saturday Night
Live skit.

Speaker 3 (14:37):
This is Congressman Shritanidar. Donald Trump has already done real
damage to our democracy. But defining a unanimous nine to
ozer Supreme Court ruling that has to be the final
straw is time the impeach Donald J.

Speaker 1 (14:54):
Trump.

Speaker 3 (14:54):
The court said the wrongfully deported kilmer Garcia must be
allowed to re ton and received due process. Trump ignored it.
He ignored the Constitution he ignored the very checks and
balances that keep our democracy intact. This isn't an isolated incident.
It's part of a dangerous, deliberate pattern. That's why today

(15:19):
I introduced a resolution to impeach Donald J. Trump.

Speaker 1 (15:25):
So there it is. One hundred days is all it
took for the Democrats to introduce impeachment articles yet again
against Donald Trump. Another example of just how bad Trump
derangement syndrome really is. And you better believe they're gonna
keep doing this, to keep accusing Donald Trump of obstructing justice,

(15:46):
abusing trade powers, tyranny, and they're going to try to
impeach him another time. This is also why so many
Americans are standing behind Donald Trump, because they look at
the Left and they realize they bring nothing to the
table but anarchy and chaos. And if you don't believe
me on that, just look at the multiple judges that

(16:08):
we're arrested for trying to help illegal migrant to escape arrest,
who are now behind bars.
