Speaker 1 (00:00):
We will stop the plunder, rape, slaughter, and destruction of
our American suburb cities and towns.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
This week, I will reinstate any service members we're objecting
to the COVID vaccine mandate with full back pay.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
You're listening to the forty seven Morning Update with Ben Ferguson.
Speaker 4 (00:18):
Good Tuesday morning, Ben Ferguson with you. It's nice to
have you with us. And the three big stories we're
going to be covering today are well, as Donald Trump
would say, huge. First up, Donald Trump says, let's be clear,
we're going after the worst first when it comes to
illegal immigrants, and Democrats don't know what to do well,
they decided they'll do what they always do when they
(00:38):
can't figure out how to fight.
Speaker 5 (00:40):
Back, lie to the American people.
Speaker 4 (00:42):
They've now been caught in a massive lie where they
claim that ICE agents were going into schools.
Speaker 5 (00:48):
Guess what.
Speaker 4 (00:49):
It never happened, and we'll explain the details in a moment. Also,
Donald Trump made good on his big promise to reinstate
those men and women in our military that were persecuted
and discharge from our military for refusing the COVID nineteen vaccine.
This is a massive victory and we'll give you the details.
Plus you're fired. Key officials under Jack Smith who went
(01:13):
after the president of the United States of America have
been fired for the Department of Justice. I'll give you
their names coming up in just a moment. It's the
forty seven Morning Update and it starts right now.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
Story number one.
Speaker 4 (01:26):
Donald Trump made a promise to every American voter on
April the second of twenty twenty four that if you
elected him president of the United States of America again,
he would do this.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
We will end deadly sanctuary cities immediately. I will shift
massive portions of federal law enforcement to immigration enforcement, and
we will impose a naval blockade on the cartels, and
we will hit the cartels very hard.
Speaker 4 (01:50):
Donald Trump paying off on those promises already, as NBC
News is now losing their mind over the fact that
ICE has made well over two five hundred immigration arrests
in the last week since Donald Trump was inaugurated. So
when you are being successful at going after the worst
among us, the question then is how do you turn
(02:14):
the table on Donald Trump If you're the left. Well,
they've gone back to their basic playbook, and that is
to lie to the American people. There was a story
that broke over the last twenty four hours accusing Donald
Trump and ICE agents of raiding a school. Well, many
of you may not know this, it never happened. Democrats,
(02:36):
including the governor of Illinois, knew that they were lying
when they leaked to the press that ICE agents had
come into a school. Yes, raided a school to take
out children. Well, we now have found out that the
governor knew it was a lie when he told the
story to the world. And what did the press do?
They ran with it. So what actually happened. Tom Homan
(03:00):
went on Fox News channel to explain because he was
in Chicago and to call out the Democratic leaders for
yet again lying to you.
Speaker 6 (03:08):
So something crazy happened in Chicago at the end of
last week. Two Secret Service agents went to a local
elementary school because they were running down a threat that
was made on TikTok. They identified themselves to the school principle.
They even left cards saying, look, if you want to
get back to us, here's how you get back to us.
Suddenly the story became that it was ICE agents who
(03:29):
went to this school. Tom and Peter Martinez, the Chicago
Public School CEO said this, listen.
Speaker 7 (03:34):
Here, we had individuals that came to one of our schools,
Hamlin Elementary School, that presented credentials that are that and
share that they were from ICE. And so our staff
followed the protocols. We're very clear. We've we've been training
our principles, our security guards, any front office staff to
make sure that making sure that they know that we
(03:56):
are not to share any information with anybody from the
Immigition Department or RICE.
Speaker 6 (04:01):
So not only did the CEO of Chicago Public Schools
pass off misinformation about US Secret Service agents who are
interpreted to be ICE, but listen to what JB. Pritzker,
the Governor of Illinois said after that, after a week
of Republicans sewing fear and chaos, the first reports of
raids in Chicago are at an elementary school, targeting children
and separating families as cruel and un America. To be clear, again,
(04:24):
these were Secret Service agents running down a threat that
was made on TikTok. They were not ICE agents. ICE
never went near that school. What do you say to
Pedro Martinez and the governor of Illinois who appeared to
be not only sewing information but fear.
Speaker 8 (04:38):
Well, Peter Martinez lied. He lied to the City of
Chicago because he knew those Secret Service agents, because I
talked to that people involved. They left their credentials. He
knew exactly who were there. So we lied again, sowing
fear in the immigrant community and Governor of Prisker rather
than calling ICE and asking us did this happen? Did
not have? He goes on social media and terrifies ICE
(05:00):
agers are walking in there now. He accuses me of
terrifying the community. No, he terrified the community. He terrified
the children. You know what ICE sug yesterday, they saved children.
We arrested nine sexual predators, many of them child sex predators.
We saved children. Ice saved children. We're not going in
schools and scaring the hell album Governor Prisker deserves. He
needs to give ICE an apology. What he did was
(05:21):
just playing wrong and by doing that, he put fear
in the community. They shouldn't have to be there. Children
shouldn't have to fear ICE ags walking into l elementary
school with the rest them.
Speaker 4 (05:29):
Did you hear the last thing that he said there?
Children shouldn't have to fear that ICE agents are going
to come into their school.
Speaker 5 (05:36):
And arrest them. This is exactly why we.
Speaker 4 (05:39):
Are doing this show every day, because we want you
to know what's happening. They are lying to you. They
knew this was Secret Service agents. They then decided to
take those agents and lie. Do the American people say
they were Ice agents rating a school. It never happened.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
Now, story number two.
Speaker 4 (06:00):
During the presidential campaign, Donald Trump made it very clear
that he was going to defend our men and women
in uniform who were fired for refusing, even for religious reasons,
to take the COVID nineteen vaccine. The Harris and Biden
administration wanted to punish them and get them out of
the military because I guess they assumed they were probably conservative.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Well.
Speaker 4 (06:21):
As of January of twenty twenty five, more than eight
thousand men and women that are serving their country have
been discharged for refusing that COVID nineteen vaccine.
Speaker 5 (06:33):
While Donald Trump made it.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
Clear the day that he was inaugurated that he was
going to fix that injustice.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
This week, I will reinstate any service members who were
unjustly expelled from our military for objecting to the COVID
vaccine mandate with full.
Speaker 5 (06:51):
Back pain, with full back pay.
Speaker 4 (06:56):
That made many liberals in Washington lose their President Trump said,
I don't care. I'm signing this executive order to reinstate
these service members with their previous rank, full back pay,
and full benefits. Prior to this order, only forty three
of the discharge personnel had rejoined the military. After the
(07:19):
vaccine mandate was rescinded in twenty twenty three, Donald Trump
said that wasn't good enough. And the new man in
charge of the Pentagon, who just got confirmed, Secretary Headsis,
said this about his first days in the Pentagon.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
And today there are more executive orders coming that we
fully support on removing DEI inside the Pentagon, reinstating.
Speaker 5 (07:43):
Troops who were pushed out because of COVID mandates.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
That's right, he's saying, you're welcome back with open arms.
We are reinstating those troops who pushed out because of
standing up for their rights, their medical rights, and even
asking for religious exemptions. The President of the United States
of America paying off on this very important move. It's
even more interesting, and this is the part that the
(08:07):
media doesn't want you to know. Many of these eight
thousand men and women that were kicked out of our
military were people that had served their country in high
ranking positions and had served this country in the battlefield.
Many of them had risked their lives fighting al Qaeda
and ISIS, and some of them were the best warriors
(08:29):
that America has had in modern warfare. Well, the good
news is not only are they welcome back into our
armed services, but they are going to receive the back
pay and benefits that they and their families deserve and
fought for.
Speaker 5 (08:43):
And lastly, story number three, law fair.
Speaker 4 (08:46):
It was one of the most important tools that democrats
use to try to overthrow the will of the people
and to lock up their political opponent, a guy by
the name of Donald Trump. You know, the guy who's
the President of the United States of America right now. Well,
one of the men that led that crusade to lock
up Donald Trump was a Special Council prosecutor by the
name of Jack Smith. Well, it is official the US
(09:09):
Department of Justice, under the Acting Attorney General James mcginry,
terminated the employment of over a dozen federal prosecutors who
had been involved in criminal cases against President Donald Trump.
These individuals were primarily part of former Special counsel Jack
Smith's team, which quoted investigated Trump's alleged mishandling of classified
(09:32):
documents and his effort they claimed to overturn the twenty
twenty election results. Now, the acting Attorney General also made
it clear he wanted America to understand why these individuals
were going to be fired. He said, these individuals they
cannot trust to assist in faithfully implementing the president's agenda. Well,
(09:54):
that's pretty obvious statement if you asked me for a
reason to fire somebody, especially since the last next thing
they were working on was locking up Donald Trump. Now,
McHenry has transmitted a letter to each official notifying them
of their termination. A Justice Department official also said today
it's unclear how many other officials will be fired in
(10:16):
the coming days. It seems that they are starting at
the top and working their way down. This action quote
is consistent with the mission of ending the weaponization of government,
the officials also said to Fox News. The move comes
after the Justice Department reassigned more than a dozen officials
in the first week of the Trump administration to a
(10:38):
sanctuary city task force and other measures. It also comes
after Trump vowed to end the weaponization of the federal
government against anyone in politics. The former Attorney General you
may remember a guy by the name of Merrick Garland
appointed Smith, a former Justice Department official, as Special council
back in November of twenty twenty two. Smith came in
(11:01):
is nothing more than a hit man to take out
Donald J. Trump, and he led that investigation into Trump's
retention of classified documents. After leaving the White House, he
also was involved in the raid of Marlago and then
he went after Donald Trump for other charges and other cases.
And just for the record, so you know, Special Counsel
(11:22):
Jack Smith, he's also without a job today, so I
guess he's got some drinking buddies to hang out with
that we're all in cahoots to overthrow the will of
the people and to lock up Donald Trump.
