Speaker 1 (00:01):
I want to do a fantastic job. We have four years,
just about almost close to four years. We're getting a
lot of credit for having done a great job in
the first almost one hundred days. And we have some
big things we're going to be announcing over the next
two days. And you know very well, Peter and I
think it's going to be something that's going to bring
a lot of wealth back to our country, tremendous wealth
back to our country.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Actually, you're listening to the forty seven Morning Update with
Ben Ferguson.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
Good Tuesday morning, Ben Ferguson with you. It's nice to
have you on the forty seven Morning Update. And here
are the three big stories that you need to know
about that are happening right now. First up, the polls
don't lie. Most Americans are now backing Donald Trump's deportation
efforts of criminals who not only have broken into this
country but also have committed crimes. So why is the
(00:48):
left still fighting against this. We'll break those numbers down
for you. Also, citizens in America are uniting to find
the Tesla Teris, you know, those that are king Swastika
and the sides of cyber trucks. Well, America seems to
be fighting back and tracking them down. And finally the
Trump administration announcing a probe into Harvard's anti semitism and
(01:12):
it could cost the university billions of dollars in federal funds.
It's the forty seven Morning Update and it starts right now.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
Story number one.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
Donald Trump promised that he was going to go after
the bad own braids that have come across our border illegally,
and those that have committed crimes in the US were
going to be the first to be deported. Democrats have
done everything they can to try to stop him from
doing that, and they're even moral outrage over the idea
of sending the worst criminals to Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. They
thought that was going to change American's minds. Then they
(01:44):
tried something new over the last few weeks, saying that
those that are being deported haven't been given quote due process,
and this is what a dictator or tyrant would do again,
protecting these individuals that have come across the border illegally, yes,
breaking our law and also breaking other significant laws on
top of that. That is who the Democratic Party is defending. Well,
(02:07):
the American people are having none of the liberals propaganda
against Donald Trump. In fact and new polling numbers we've
seen now most Americans approve of President Donald Trump's program
to deport illegal immigrants period. That means, if you came
into America illegally, that is enough for the American people
to say you should be deported, not just committing other
(02:30):
crimes on top of that. Yes, this is an incredible
new number that we're seeing. The poll was taken between
March to twenty seventh and the twenty eighth and fifty
eight percent say they approve of the Trump administration's program
to deport illegal immigrants in the US, compared to forty
two percent who say they disapprove. Translation, an overwhelming majority
(02:51):
of Americans stand with Donald Trump.
Speaker 4 (02:53):
Now.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
What's even more interesting about what we're witnessing right now
is the fact that the media is angry at dem
Democrats on Capitol Hill for not going out and going
to war with Donald Trump over deportations. Many of them,
they believe, apparently now are just cowards and they're angry
and shocked that the majority of Americans are supporting Trump.
(03:15):
MSNBC is a perfect example where they say they cannot
believe what they're witnessing with their own eyes.
Speaker 5 (03:22):
You heard Stephen Miller say in an interview on the
lawn of the White House, look at you to a
CBS reporter, Are you seriously defending people who are here
from Venezuela who are gang members even though there had
been no due process to know whether they were gang members.
But it was a kind of perfect demonstration of the
way that the administration flips this against any critics to
(03:43):
say that you are inherently pro illegal immigrant. You are
inherently pro people who are here illegally or have done
bad things. And it's so difficult. It makes it hard
for the Democrats to defend the rights of these people,
which is why you're not hearing much outcry. I mean,
it was interesting talking to Applebaum just a minute ago
off cameras, who's saying, we've gone further than Hungary in
(04:04):
the United States already just in the space of three months.
Auband took ten years to do this, We've done it
in the space of three months. And it's even more
chilling here what is happening. But you're hearing so little
opposition to it from Democrats.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
You're hearing so little opposition to it from Democrats. Hell
may be freezing over because MSNBC is now attacking Democrats,
they say, for not being radical enough at standing up
to what the American people are saying they want overwhelmingly.
You also heard in there the fear mong grey saying
that Hungary, which they've attacked Victor Orbond, the leader of
(04:41):
that country relentlessly, since Donald Trump set his name and
said he's doing a great job on the issue of immigration,
they are now saying that what it took him years
or decades to accomplish in Hungary has only taken Donald
Trump three months. Like that's a bad thing. It's very
clear the American people are loving Donald Trump is doing,
and it's exactly what he ran on for president. No
(05:04):
one should be surprised that this is his agenda item.
In fact, you could argue this is exactly why the
American people voted him back into the White House. So
the good news is, no matter what the Democrats have
said so far in the first three months of his presidency,
none of it seems to be working, and the American
people seem to be united behind Donald Trump to get
(05:25):
rid of illegal immigrants who entered the country illegally.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Next story Number two.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
The story that you're about to hear is one that's
very important, and I hope every one of you will
share this podcast wherever you can on social media because
the American people are standing up and finding these Tesla terrists.
In recent weeks, there have been a significant increase in
attax targeting Tesla vehicles, dealerships, charging stations, both in the
(05:54):
United States of America and internationally. The incense of range
from basic vandalism to full on arson, to bombs even
being planted at dealerships around the country, whether it's Las
Vegas or Colorado, Brooklyn, New York. Nationwide, we have seen
a massive uptick. And then on Saturday you had the
(06:14):
international protest of Elon Musk and the activist group Tesla
Takedown organize over two hundred protests, they claim, at Tesla
dealerships across the country. In response, Tesla' sen a video
message to its sales staff urging them to stay vigilant.
It is very obvious that much of this is organized
and being pushed by the radical left. The FBI has
(06:37):
formed a task force to address the rising number of
attacks on Tesla properties, collaborating with the Bureau of Alcohol
tobacco on firearms and investigating all of these incidents with
local law enforcement. They're also now treating this as domestic terrorism.
Well here's the best part. Americans are getting involved as well.
(06:57):
Many of the attacks on Tesla vehicles are being caught
by the Tesla camera systems and then the owners are
putting them on the internet. Well, guess what's happening. Americans
are identifying the attackers and turning them into police. In fact,
one man whose car was vandalized with a swastika keyed
into the side found because the internet the man who
(07:20):
did it, and he confronted him and it was all
caught on video. I'll say it again, You're not gonna
see or hear this anywhere else, so make sure you
share this with all of your family and friends on
social media. Now, the man that's being confronted realizes that
he is being taped and that the whole world is
going to see who he is, putting his entire livelihood,
(07:40):
in his life, his businesses, and his quote good name
in a bad light. So what did he say when
he was confronted by the man who tracked him down,
whose car he put these swastika in? Will take a
listen to his own words.
Speaker 4 (07:54):
Frue service, and how about you pay for the repairs,
write a check. You just bought a test, I can
wipe it off. No, no, it's not. It is a
heat crime. It is a heat crime. Did you write
a swastika on upset? Did you write a swat It
didn't even work? Did you write a swastika on the
it's a key, sir, we see it on the video.
(08:15):
Did you Is it a swast Is it a swastika?
Speaker 1 (08:21):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (08:22):
Is it a It's at the police right now. It's
being fingerprinted.
Speaker 6 (08:27):
What do you mean it's being finger printed because they.
Speaker 4 (08:29):
They were trying to track you down. Thankfully Facebook tracked
you down, so your business, your freaking livelihood, everything down
because you chose to write au so tough Facebook that
you're sorry for writing a swastika on a test.
Speaker 6 (08:43):
Listen, I said, I'm sorry for what. I have nothing
against what are and I have nothing against you.
Speaker 4 (08:51):
So why would you write a swastika?
Speaker 6 (08:54):
Obviously I have something against but.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
That's not because we think it was so. It was
bought and paid for a long time.
Speaker 6 (09:03):
That's why it's misguided. And obviously I did not intend
to do this.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
This should serve as a warning to anyone thinking about
going after Tesla vehicles that if you're caught on camera,
there are a lot of good Americans that are out
there willing to find you and expose you for actually
who you are. We also are finding out that there
are consequences for those who've already done this. A man
suspected of setting fire to Tesla vehicles in Las Vegas,
(09:30):
we were told today, will remain jailed until trial. Tesla
taire is also spreading in Europe, as dealerships have gone
up in flames and vandals hit another in at tax
on Trump and Elon Musk. It's obvious that the left
is realizing now that when they can't control Donald Trump, well,
they're going to at least try to burn down everything
(09:52):
that's important to him and Elon Musk.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
And here is story number three.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
There are two basic questions that American taxpayers should be
asking when it comes to universities like Harvard. Number one,
why are your federal tax dollars going there? Especially when
Harvard University's endowment at the end of June of twenty
twenty four, their fiscal year was valued at fifty three
(10:16):
point two billion dollars. By the way, that represented a
two point five billion dollar increase from the previous fiscal year.
The second question is why is the government giving nine
billion in federal funds to a university that also has
anti Semitic tendencies. Well, both of those questions are now
(10:37):
being answered by the Trump administration as they are probe
being Harvard for exactly that anti semitism and looking at
the real possibility of pulling the nine billion in federal funds.
The Trump administration announcing on Monday that they are looking
into Harvard over its chronic problem with anti semitism, placing
(10:57):
the nine billion in federal grants at risk. At the
nation's most elite academic institution, Harvard's campus has become increasingly
hostile to Jews in recent years, as radical anti Israel
activists have become well one to one basically with a
university and their mindset. Especially since the hamas Tera attacks
of October the seventh, which dozens of student groups blamed
(11:21):
on Israel on campus, the university has struggled to respond.
In fact, the former Harvard president, Clouding Gay could not
even commit to Congress that the university would take action
if there were calls for genocide of Jews on campus.
She resigned weeks later in disgrace. Three separate federal departments
announced a joint investigation on Monday of Harvard in a
(11:45):
press statement saying this Today, the Department of Education, Health
and Human Services, and the US General Services Administration announced
a comprehensive review of federal contracts and grants at Harvard
University and its affiliates. This review is part of the
ongoing efforts of the Joint Task Force to Combat Anti Semitism.
(12:05):
The task Force will review more than two hundred and
fifty five million in contracts between Harvard University, its affiliates,
and the federal government. The review also includes more than
eight point seven billion in multi year grant commitments to
Harvard University and its affiliates to ensure the university is
in compliance with federal regulations, including its civil rights responsibilities.
(12:32):
Harvard has served as a symbol of the American dream
for generations, the pinnacle aspiration for students all over the
world to work hard and earn it mission to the
storied institution. Harvard's failure to protect students on campus from
anti Semitic discrimination, all while promoting divisive ideologies over free
(12:53):
inquiry has put its reputation in serious jeopardy. Harvard can
right these wrongs and restore itself to a campus dedicated
to academic excellence and truth seeking where all students feel
safe on its campus now. The Trump administration took a
similar approach in addressing anti semitism on the campus of
(13:13):
Columbia University, which quickly agreed to make major policy changes,
though it later seemed to backtrack privately after the enaction
of the Biden administration, which was reluctant to confront its
own radical base about anti Jewish bigotry. Donald Trump clearly
has no problem confronting anti semitism on college campuses, clearly
(13:36):
making sure that every Jewish student feel safe no matter
what campus they're on in America. As for Harvard, if
they keep up their anti Semitic ways, it's going to
cost them billions of dollars.
