- 0:00Speaker 1: Barack Obama said that aliens are real. Have you seen
- 0:05Speaker 1: any evidence of non human visitors or.
- 0:09Speaker 2: Well, he gave less and right information. He's not supposed
- 0:11Speaker 2: to be doing that. You know the aliens are real. Well,
- 0:14Speaker 2: I don't know if they're real or not. I can
- 0:15Speaker 2: tell you he gave less of fight information. He's not
- 0:17Speaker 2: supposed to be doing that. Well, he made a big
- 0:20Speaker 2: for sake, he took it out at lasses that inflammation.
- 0:24Speaker 3: You're listening to the forty seven Morning Update with Ben ferguson.
- 0:27Speaker 4: Good Friday morning. Nice to have you with us on
- 0:29Speaker 4: the forty seven Morning Updating. We've got two big stories
- 0:32Speaker 4: for you. First up, Democrats are not just looking to
- 0:35Speaker 4: get rid of Ice, but now they're saying they want
- 0:38Speaker 4: to dismantle the entire Department of Homeland Security. What would
- 0:42Speaker 4: that look like? And what is the White House saying
- 0:44Speaker 4: in response? We have all that for you in a moment. Also, aliens, Yes,
- 0:50Speaker 4: you may be curious. Well, after Barack Obama came out
- 0:54Speaker 4: and said there are aliens, Donald Trump had a response,
- 0:58Speaker 4: and you're gonna get to see some classified information. It's
- 1:02Speaker 4: the forty seven Morning Update and it starts right now.
- 1:05Speaker 3: Story number one.
- 1:07Speaker 4: Democrats, we are now learning are looking not only to
- 1:10Speaker 4: dismantle ICE, but also the entire Department of Homeland Security.
- 1:15Speaker 4: Remarks now coming from Representative lam Omar signal that the
- 1:20Speaker 4: National Democrats as a party are pursuing sweeping changes that
- 1:26Speaker 4: extend far beyond their calls to quote abolish ICE. During
- 1:31Speaker 4: a town hall, Omar said, Democrats are not only discussing
- 1:35Speaker 4: eliminating immigration and customs enforcement, but are also engaged in
- 1:39Speaker 4: conversations about dismantling the Department of Homeland Security altogether. Quote.
- 1:45Speaker 4: What I will say is that there is an easier
- 1:48Speaker 4: conversation happening today than six seven years ago when I
- 1:53Speaker 4: got to Congress about what we need to do with ICE,
- 1:56Speaker 4: which is to abolish it, Omar told attendees in Golden
- 1:59Speaker 4: vas Avali, Minnesota. She added, there's a lot of conversation
- 2:04Speaker 4: about what the dismantlement of the Department of Homeland Securities
- 2:08Speaker 4: should look like now. O Mar's remarks come as Democrats
- 2:11Speaker 4: continue to protests federal immigration enforcement operations directed under President
- 2:17Speaker 4: Donald Trump. ICE, which was established in two thousand and
- 2:21Speaker 4: three under the DHS, has carried out immigration enforcement actions
- 2:26Speaker 4: for more than two decades now. Thursday mark the sixth
- 2:30Speaker 4: day of a federal shutdown forced by Congressional Democrats over
- 2:35Speaker 4: their new demands to get rid of ICE, or at
- 2:38Speaker 4: the bare minimum, as they describe it, reform it, which
- 2:41Speaker 4: actually means shut it down.
- 2:43Speaker 5: Now.
- 2:43Speaker 4: Democrats are pushing for, they say, a series of major
- 2:47Speaker 4: new restrictions on ICE operations. What does that include? Banning
- 2:53Speaker 4: agents from wearing face masks and requiring judicial warrants before
- 2:59Speaker 4: making the arrests at all. They are also calling for
- 3:03Speaker 4: a mandate that ICE agents wear body cameras, something the
- 3:07Speaker 4: Trump administration is already moving towards, but of course they
- 3:11Speaker 4: want to seem like there's fake outrage. In fact, ICE
- 3:14Speaker 4: agents have been requesting the body cameras to prove their
- 3:18Speaker 4: innocence in many of the accusations that are coming from
- 3:21Speaker 4: the radical left now. In addition, Democrats are seeking to
- 3:26Speaker 4: prohibit immigration enforcement actions at what they describe as sensitive locations,
- 3:32Speaker 4: meaning they'll become safe havens for actual criminals. What are
- 3:36Speaker 4: these places? Hospitals, schools, and polling sites. Just so you know,
- 3:43Speaker 4: with American individuals that have broken laws, as an American citizen,
- 3:48Speaker 4: you can be arrested right now at a hospital or
- 3:50Speaker 4: a school or at a polling site. So why would
- 3:53Speaker 4: we give special care to illegal immigrants? Is the question
- 3:57Speaker 4: every American should be asking. One uther side point about
- 4:01Speaker 4: the insanity of them saying that you can't arrest illegal
- 4:04Speaker 4: immigrants at polling sites. Republicans, they're laughing at that, noting
- 4:09Speaker 4: that non citizens, by the way, are literally prohibited from
- 4:12Speaker 4: voting in US elections under federal law. So why are
- 4:16Speaker 4: Democrats so angry and wanting to demand that our laws
- 4:20Speaker 4: would make it impossible for law enforcement too, You guessed it,
- 4:26Speaker 4: arrest illegal immigrants at polling sites? Is it because they
- 4:30Speaker 4: want them to vote? Or know that some of them
- 4:32Speaker 4: already are voting right now now. In recent weeks, several
- 4:36Speaker 4: Democratic leaders have strongly condemned ICE operations, including Minnesota Governor
- 4:42Speaker 4: Tim Waltz, a Democrat who lost to twenty twenty four
- 4:45Speaker 4: election to Trump and Vice President jd. Vance. He now
- 4:48Speaker 4: warned that federal enforcement efforts could expand nationwide, therefore we
- 4:53Speaker 4: must defund them. He also had this warning to America,
- 4:58Speaker 4: quote to Americans, to our watching this, if you're in Portland,
- 5:02Speaker 4: or you're in LA or you're in Chicago, or you're
- 5:06Speaker 4: wherever they're coming next. Now, to be clear, for me,
- 5:11Speaker 4: that's a good thing if we're sending law enforcement to
- 5:14Speaker 4: clean up cities that are filled with tons of criminals.
- 5:19Speaker 4: Yet again the Democrats showing whose side they're actually on now.
- 5:23Speaker 4: Republicans have urged that ICE enforcement actions are not only
- 5:27Speaker 4: lawful operations carried out by federal authorities, but they are
- 5:31Speaker 4: needed to protect American citizens, and the crime statistics have
- 5:35Speaker 4: shown where ICE agents have been out in major enforcement actions,
- 5:39Speaker 4: we've seen the crimes drastically drop in those areas. Of course,
- 5:44Speaker 4: critics of Democratic proposals say dismantling ICE or DHS more
- 5:48Speaker 4: broadly would significantly not only reshape national security of the
- 5:53Speaker 4: home land, but it would allow for criminals to run
- 5:56Speaker 4: a mock DHS. By the way, overseas twenty two agency
- 6:00Speaker 4: focusing on national security and public safety. Major components include
- 6:05Speaker 4: Customs and Border Protection known as CBP. If you get
- 6:09Speaker 4: rid of Homeland security, you would get rid of that.
- 6:12Speaker 4: You'd also get rid of obviously, immigration, customers enforcement, ICE agents,
- 6:17Speaker 4: and the TSA. So yes, Democrats want to shut down
- 6:20Speaker 4: the same people that keep you safe when flying on airplanes.
- 6:24Speaker 4: They also want to get rid of FEMA. That is
- 6:26Speaker 4: also yet again under the Department of Home in Security.
- 6:30Speaker 4: So the next time there's a national disaster, guess what, Yeah,
- 6:33Speaker 4: no one from the federal government would be there to
- 6:35Speaker 4: help you if the Democrats get their way. Oh and
- 6:38Speaker 4: if you're at c or you're a drug dealer, or
- 6:41Speaker 4: maybe some other country that's looking to do harm, don't worry.
- 6:44Speaker 4: Democrats also say, yeah, that includes the US Coast Guard.
- 6:48Speaker 4: So if you're sinking on a boat, tough luck for you.
- 6:51Speaker 4: Democrats say no more. And if you are caring about
- 6:55Speaker 4: our president and others around him and other cabinet members,
- 6:59Speaker 4: well you would like the Secret Service protection. If Democrats
- 7:02Speaker 4: get their way shutting down the Department of Homeland Security,
- 7:06Speaker 4: that would include the Secret Service. And finally, maybe this
- 7:09Speaker 4: is what it's really all about for them. US Citizenship
- 7:13Speaker 4: and Immigration Services under the USCIS, Yes, you've probably dealt
- 7:18Speaker 4: with them. If you've ever had to get a passport
- 7:20Speaker 4: or other things like that, well, Democrats also apparently say nah,
- 7:25Speaker 4: let's get rid of that as well. So to be clear,
- 7:28Speaker 4: in the midterm elections, Democrats are saying exactly what they believe.
- 7:33Speaker 4: They hate this country. They hate secure borders, they hate
- 7:36Speaker 4: law and order, they hate FEMA, they hate the Coastguard,
- 7:39Speaker 4: they hate the Secret Service, and they hate the people
- 7:42Speaker 4: they help US citizens and immigration services as well, and
- 7:46Speaker 4: they want to abolish all of it just because they
- 7:49Speaker 4: don't like ICE actions. This is what the midterms are
- 7:53Speaker 4: going to be about. And thank goodness, Donald Trump has
- 7:55Speaker 4: made it clear as he had a campaign rally for
- 7:58Speaker 4: the midterms, we must continue to fight back against this anarchy.
- 8:03Speaker 3: Now, story number two.
- 8:04Speaker 4: Here's something I never thought i'd say, a war of
- 8:06Speaker 4: words between Donald Trump and Barack Obama. Now, that's happened before,
- 8:11Speaker 4: but over the issue of little Green men aliens. That
- 8:15Speaker 4: is something I never thought I'd be talking about. But
- 8:17Speaker 4: Barack Obama went on a podcast this week and he
- 8:21Speaker 4: was asked a question about aliens, and here's what he
- 8:24Speaker 4: had to say.
- 8:26Speaker 1: Are aliens real?
- 8:28Speaker 5: They're real, but I haven't seen them, and they're not
- 8:32Speaker 5: being kept in fifty one. There's no underground facility unless
- 8:39Speaker 5: there's this enormous conspiracy. And they hit it from the
- 8:44Speaker 5: President of the United States.
- 8:46Speaker 4: Now, that comment turned into a much bigger issue on
- 8:50Speaker 4: social media and online, as many were freaking out that
- 8:54Speaker 4: the President of the United States of America, Donald Trump,
- 8:56Speaker 4: is now hiding from US aliens. Donald Trump was asked
- 9:01Speaker 4: about this, and I want you to hear what he
- 9:03Speaker 4: had to say. He wasn't laughing near as much as
- 9:07Speaker 4: Barack Obama was.
- 9:08Speaker 2: And here's what he said, No discrimination.
- 9:12Speaker 1: Something to get a lot of attention to week, Barack
- 9:14Speaker 1: Obama said that aliens are real. Have you seen any
- 9:19Speaker 1: evidence of non human visitors or well?
- 9:22Speaker 2: He gave pless of right information. He's not supposed to
- 9:24Speaker 2: be doing that. Well, I don't know if they're real
- 9:28Speaker 2: or not. I can tell you he gained classified information.
- 9:30Speaker 2: He's not supposed to be doing that. Well, he made
- 9:33Speaker 2: it big for sake. He took it out of class
- 9:35Speaker 2: of my information. No, I don't. I don't have an
- 9:38Speaker 2: opinion on it. I never talked about it. A lot
- 9:40Speaker 2: of people do, a lot of people believe it.
- 9:44Speaker 1: Do you believe that, Peter, Well, if the press can
- 9:46Speaker 1: declassify anything that he wants, Tom.
- 9:50Speaker 2: I may get him out of trouble by declassifying. We
- 9:52Speaker 2: know illegal aliens?
- 9:53Speaker 1: Really?
- 9:54Speaker 2: Yeah, illegal, only illegals? What else?
- 9:57Speaker 4: Only illegals?
- 9:58Speaker 3: What else?
- 9:59Speaker 5: Now?
- 9:59Speaker 4: The president and said that, which then caused Barack Obama
- 10:02Speaker 4: to backtrack very quickly on what he had said on
- 10:07Speaker 4: that podcast, Barack Obama came out and posted on Instagram
- 10:12Speaker 4: clarifying that he saw no evidence during his presidency that
- 10:18Speaker 4: aliens had made contact with Earth. His point was that statistically,
- 10:24Speaker 4: life elsewhere in the universe is likely given in its vastness,
- 10:28Speaker 4: but there's no proof of visits here. Well, then Donald
- 10:32Speaker 4: Trump decided to do what well Donald Trump always does.
- 10:36Speaker 4: He likes to let the American people know exactly what's
- 10:39Speaker 4: going on and doesn't think that there should be a
- 10:42Speaker 4: lot of secrets from you. So President Donald Trump said
- 10:46Speaker 4: on Thursday that he will direct the Pentagon Chief Headseth
- 10:51Speaker 4: and other relevant agencies to begin the process of identifying
- 10:56Speaker 4: and releasing government files related to aliens and extraterrestrial life,
- 11:03Speaker 4: as well as unidentified aerial phenomena known as UAPs and
- 11:10Speaker 4: unidentified flying objects you know them as UFOs. Trump on
- 11:15Speaker 4: True Socials said, based on the tremendous interest shown, I
- 11:19Speaker 4: will be directing the Secretary of War and the other
- 11:22Speaker 4: relevant departments and agencies to begin the process of identifying
- 11:26Speaker 4: and releasing government files related to aliens and extraterrestrial life,
- 11:32Speaker 4: as well as unidentified aerial phenomenon, unidentified flying objects, and
- 11:37Speaker 4: any and all other information connected to these highly complex
- 11:42Speaker 4: but extremely interesting and important matters the present then putting
- 11:47Speaker 4: in all caps God bless America. One thing is for sure,
- 11:52Speaker 4: Barack Obama saying that aliens are real and then trying
- 11:55Speaker 4: to take it back, well, it may not fly in
- 11:59Speaker 4: The President of the United States of America wants you
- 12:01Speaker 4: to know about anything and everything. That is fine. I
- 12:05Speaker 4: have to say the best part of this story is
- 12:08Speaker 4: the transparency. The President of the United States of America saying,
- 12:12Speaker 4: you know what you The American people deserve to know
- 12:15Speaker 4: what we know, and we shouldn't be hiding it from
- 12:17Speaker 4: you when it comes to the UFOs. This also is
- 12:20Speaker 4: what many Americans have been demanding on other issues, just
- 12:23Speaker 4: like the Epstein files, and the President of the United
- 12:25Speaker 4: States of America time and time again is saying, okay,
- 12:29Speaker 4: if the American people want to see it, I am
- 12:32Speaker 4: more than happy to let you see what's actually happening
- 12:35Speaker 4: within your government. Wouldn't it be amazing if the guy
- 12:39Speaker 4: by the name of Barack Obama would have done the
- 12:41Speaker 4: same thing for eight years when he was in office.
- 12:44Speaker 4: He now gives you the teasers, as he has no
- 12:48Speaker 4: power to actually disclose anything, and even if it means
- 12:52Speaker 4: that he was, you know, doing is what the President said,
- 12:55Speaker 4: giving you classified information. That's not his job then or now,
- 13:00Speaker 4: and so the Presdent's doing it the lawful way, the
- 13:03Speaker 4: right way, and saying to the government, go ahead and
- 13:06Speaker 4: do what you need to do to let the American
- 13:08Speaker 4: people see exactly what's going on.
