Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: It just seems to me in general here we're at large.
- 0:05Speaker 1: If you abide by the immigration laws, stop all this
- 0:09Speaker 1: sanctuary city business, that's the most affordable thing possible you save.
- 0:15Speaker 1: I mean, I look at what's happened in New York.
- 0:17Speaker 2: You know, sanctuary cities are only good for people. It's
- 0:20Speaker 2: sanctuary for criminals.
- 0:21Speaker 1: Okay, they are protecting criminals.
- 0:24Speaker 3: You're listening to the forty seven Morning Update with Ben ferguson.
- 0:27Speaker 2: Good Thursday morning.
- 0:28Speaker 4: Nice to have you with us on the forty seven
- 0:30Speaker 4: Morning Update, and we've got a big story for you.
- 0:32Speaker 4: Gavin Newsom, you know, the governor of California. Well, he's
- 0:36Speaker 4: now spent more than a billion dollars to import more
- 0:40Speaker 4: than four hundred thousand illegal immigrants to replace American citizens.
- 0:47Speaker 4: Where did all that money go? We have the receipts.
- 0:50Speaker 4: It's the forty seven Morning Update and it starts right.
- 0:53Speaker 2: Now, story number one. All right, I want to just
- 0:56Speaker 2: ask you a question real quick.
- 0:58Speaker 4: How mad would you be if you knew that your
- 1:01Speaker 4: tax dollars were being spent to import illegal immigrants. I'm
- 1:10Speaker 4: asking that question because we're now finding out that that
- 1:13Speaker 4: is exactly what happened in California. California Governor Gavin Newsom,
- 1:20Speaker 4: we're now being told covertly spent not one million, not
- 1:26Speaker 4: ten million, not even fifty million, not even one hundred million,
- 1:29Speaker 4: not even five hundred million. He's spent one billion dollars
- 1:36Speaker 4: importing four hundred thousand migrants from poor countries to serve
- 1:42Speaker 4: the state's democratic political machine. This according to data provided
- 1:49Speaker 4: by the Manhattan Institute in New York.
- 1:53Speaker 2: Let me just read for you from what we've learned. Quote.
- 1:58Speaker 4: Since Newsom took off, California has granted massive contracts to
- 2:04Speaker 4: migrant related services. This is also what you could describe
- 2:08Speaker 4: as a kickback to his donors and supporters.
- 2:12Speaker 2: More than two hundred and.
- 2:14Speaker 4: Fifty million dollars alone went to the Catholic Charities, eighty
- 2:20Speaker 4: five million to Jewish Family Services, twelve million to the
- 2:25Speaker 4: Centro Legal de la Raza whatever that is, and twenty
- 2:30Speaker 4: three million to the Immigration Institute of the Bay Area.
- 2:35Speaker 4: That's just some of the biggest people that got checks.
- 2:39Speaker 2: Now.
- 2:39Speaker 4: The funding is also in addition to California's share of
- 2:44Speaker 4: massive and this is where your tax dours, no matter
- 2:46Speaker 4: where you're listening right now, matter the most. They have
- 2:50Speaker 4: a massive federal funding that's been directed that's your tax
- 2:54Speaker 4: dollars by then President Joe Biden's pro immigration border chief Alejandromiorchis.
- 3:01Speaker 4: The state's democratic government also steered one hundred and ten
- 3:05Speaker 4: million to the major Latino political machine known as the
- 3:10Speaker 4: Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights Los Angeles. That organization can
- 3:16Speaker 4: be described as a one stop activist machine with the
- 3:20Speaker 4: ability to not only produce and I'm not joking political propaganda,
- 3:24Speaker 4: then engage in legal action, and most importantly, get people
- 3:28Speaker 4: into the streets. The group coordinates the LA Rapid Response Network,
- 3:34Speaker 4: which also tracks ICE raids and where ICE agents are,
- 3:39Speaker 4: and then takes direct action they say, to shut down
- 3:42Speaker 4: detention centers.
- 3:43Speaker 2: That's their own words. Now.
- 3:45Speaker 4: During the wave of fake protests in LA, this organization
- 3:50Speaker 4: and their activists agitated on social media, led us street protest,
- 3:56Speaker 4: and then they were the ones that called for what
- 3:58Speaker 4: spread as the quote Summer of Resistance. All of this
- 4:03Speaker 4: was not organic. All of this was paid for, and
- 4:06Speaker 4: much of it with your tax dollars. Now, at the
- 4:09Speaker 4: height of the unrest, we're also learning this. The executive
- 4:12Speaker 4: director of this Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights Los Angeles,
- 4:17Speaker 4: Angelica sALS spoke in a street protest, telling crowds that
- 4:22Speaker 4: ICE agents we're conducting a militarized siege against illegal migrants,
- 4:28Speaker 4: saying quote, we are going to stop Trump's tear campaign
- 4:32Speaker 4: against our community. We will not stop marching, we will
- 4:37Speaker 4: not stop fighting. The article is titled quote how Gavin
- 4:42Speaker 4: Newsom subsidized the Migrant invasion, where all of this is
- 4:46Speaker 4: being exposed. I hope you'll download it and read it again,
- 4:50Speaker 4: put it into Google How Gavin Newsom subsidized the Migrant Invasion.
- 4:55Speaker 4: It also concluded in the report that the quote two
- 4:58Speaker 4: million legal migrants in California are ponds merely instruments of
- 5:05Speaker 4: activist class that would like to see America burn quote unquote.
- 5:11Speaker 4: Now newsome support for the migration is better understood as
- 5:14Speaker 4: the self serving operation of California's democratic political machine, and
- 5:20Speaker 4: this is why the money was being spent the way
- 5:22Speaker 4: that it was. They're using the plans that have been
- 5:25Speaker 4: used in New York, New York City, in Boston, in Denver,
- 5:29Speaker 4: in Minneapolis. California's democratic machine once more low wage migrants,
- 5:35Speaker 4: because the migrants serve as customers for the state's education
- 5:39Speaker 4: and welfare agencies. In time, the multi ethnic migrant customers
- 5:45Speaker 4: become clients and beneficiaries, and then, most importantly to them,
- 5:49Speaker 4: modern day slaves, dependents of the multi ethnic machine that
- 5:54Speaker 4: the Democratic Party has set up. And then they eventually
- 5:58Speaker 4: will repay that machine, the Democrats with their votes, and
- 6:02Speaker 4: gradually they are expected to then get citizenship, right to
- 6:06Speaker 4: be naturalized. It's all a part of the overall plan.
- 6:10Speaker 4: But now we're witnessing just how much money it's costing you. Now,
- 6:15Speaker 4: the process in California is not any different from what
- 6:18Speaker 4: the Irish political machine that emerged in Chicago and Boston
- 6:22Speaker 4: and New York during the late eighteen hundreds. Did you
- 6:25Speaker 4: remember these saying history repeats itself, Well, it literally is
- 6:29Speaker 4: right now in front of us in real time. You
- 6:32Speaker 4: go back then and you study that story. New York's
- 6:36Speaker 4: Timmani Hall, for example, gained power as many Irish migrants
- 6:41Speaker 4: fled the famine, and then lost power when the Americans
- 6:44Speaker 4: elected to Congress to block migration the nineteen twenties. Now
- 6:48Speaker 4: Newsom's migrant clients also serve as business allies as well,
- 6:53Speaker 4: because Democrats claim they want to quote living wage, but
- 6:56Speaker 4: they want to pay a low wage worker instead of
- 6:59Speaker 4: an American worker welfare aided customers. They're fine with that
- 7:04Speaker 4: because also brings them new consumers. And these are also
- 7:08Speaker 4: individuals that will rent their slums, you know, their apartments,
- 7:12Speaker 4: because many of them are apartment sharing renters.
- 7:15Speaker 2: Let me just give you one example.
- 7:17Speaker 4: In March, missionlocal dot org reported that San Francisco had
- 7:23Speaker 4: to inflate real estate values in the state. Why did
- 7:27Speaker 4: this happen? Well, I'll give you another example of that. Camello,
- 7:31Speaker 4: forty three, was looking for a place to live for
- 7:33Speaker 4: almost six months after arriving in the United States of
- 7:36Speaker 4: America three years ago and more In the article, it
- 7:39Speaker 4: says they finally found his current room through a friend
- 7:41Speaker 4: of friends of his nephew. Carmelo works at a neighborhood
- 7:46Speaker 4: grocery store on Sixteenth Street. He was stacking cabbages on
- 7:50Speaker 4: the shelf and pulling bad looking mushrooms out of the
- 7:53Speaker 4: bend as he spoke to the Mission Local about finding
- 7:56Speaker 4: housing and paying rent in San Francisco. The one documented
- 8:00Speaker 4: immigrant we call them an illegal immigrant, arrived three years
- 8:04Speaker 4: ago from the Yucatan. He lives in an apartment with
- 8:07Speaker 4: three others, his twenty five year old son and two
- 8:10Speaker 4: of his nephews. They pay two nine hundred and fifty
- 8:13Speaker 4: dollars total.
- 8:15Speaker 2: Here we are.
- 8:16Speaker 4: There isn't another option, Camellos said in Spanish. One immigrant
- 8:20Speaker 4: family from El Salvador cran not one, not two, not five,
- 8:24Speaker 4: but fifteen people into a two bedroom unit in the
- 8:29Speaker 4: Excelsior neighborhood during the pandemic. The migrants also serve the
- 8:33Speaker 4: state's Democratic leading prosperous class with low cost services such
- 8:39Speaker 4: as manicures, gardening, and cheap car washes. I wish I
- 8:44Speaker 4: was joking, but this is actually why the Democrats are
- 8:47Speaker 4: taking advantage of them. Of course, the mass inflow of
- 8:51Speaker 4: wage cutting, rent spiking, Democrat voting illegal immigrants also pushes
- 8:57Speaker 4: ordinary hardworking Americans out of the democrats amnesty zones and
- 9:02Speaker 4: towards southern and Midwestern cities and states with lower taxes
- 9:06Speaker 4: and family friendly laws. The elite's widespread use of illegal
- 9:12Speaker 4: migration against ordinary Americans is often protected by the Democrats,
- 9:19Speaker 4: and they're dubbed you guessed it, sanctuary cities. Now in
- 9:23Speaker 4: these cities, in these zones, Democrats and even some GOP
- 9:27Speaker 4: politicians are barring police enforcement of popular migration related labor
- 9:33Speaker 4: laws and also try to block the democratic implementation of
- 9:39Speaker 4: President Donald Trump's twenty twenty four popular mandate. This is
- 9:44Speaker 4: how the Democrats are going to move forward. Take your money,
- 9:49Speaker 4: as much of it as they can, and give it
- 9:52Speaker 4: to illegal immigrants communists. Johani Mundani doubling down on sanctuary
- 9:57Speaker 4: policies protecting criminal illegal Just last week, he had this
- 10:02Speaker 4: to say.
- 10:03Speaker 5: First and foremost, I'm going to follow up with my
- 10:06Speaker 5: team around what cuny policies are and what they need
- 10:09Speaker 5: to be. I think we've seen a number of times
- 10:12Speaker 5: where we are proud of the sanctuary city policies we
- 10:16Speaker 5: have in New York City, and we also want to
- 10:18Speaker 5: be clear that and I'll say this as the mayor,
- 10:22Speaker 5: I do not want a future of this city where
- 10:24Speaker 5: we learn how to deal with ice. I believe that
- 10:26Speaker 5: ice should be abolished, and I've said this both publicly
- 10:32Speaker 5: and privately, and I've even told the President directly that
- 10:35Speaker 5: I believe that ice ice raids are cruel and inhumane,
- 10:39Speaker 5: and I think that they don't do anything to serve
- 10:41Speaker 5: in the stated public interest of public safety.
- 10:44Speaker 2: So there you have it. Follow the money.
- 10:47Speaker 4: Time after time, this is what we are seeing democratic policies,
- 10:52Speaker 4: not only don't work. But even nearly fifty four thousand
- 10:56Speaker 4: we're now hearing Los Angeles County residence fled in a
- 10:59Speaker 4: single year wine because they can't afford the rent, they
- 11:03Speaker 4: can't afford to deal with a crime, and they can't
- 11:06Speaker 4: afford to work for next to nothing, competing with illegal
- 11:10Speaker 4: aliens and what they're willing to make and live on
- 11:13Speaker 4: top of each other in the housing. Here's just one
- 11:17Speaker 4: example of how Fox Business described the massive excess not
- 11:21Speaker 4: from California, but fifty four thousand a year from Los
- 11:24Speaker 4: Angeles County alone.
- 11:26Speaker 6: The exodus continues. We've got shocking new figures showing Los
- 11:29Speaker 6: Angeles losing tens of thousands of residents, one of the
- 11:32Speaker 6: biggest population drops in the nation. Experts pointing to soaring costs,
- 11:37Speaker 6: shrinking opportunity, and policy failures driving people out.
- 11:41Speaker 7: Eventually, that system collapses, because the problem with socialism is
- 11:45Speaker 7: you run out of other people's money. So that system
- 11:48Speaker 7: collapses if enough people leave. And I know we're just
- 11:51Speaker 7: talking about LA but then eventually these states, that system
- 11:55Speaker 7: can't support itself because there isn't the tax space to
- 11:58Speaker 7: support all of the public funds that you want.
- 12:01Speaker 8: I hate to say it But to your point, they
- 12:03Speaker 8: make all these promises. If you heard what Zora Madamie said,
- 12:06Speaker 8: it's going to be free this, free that, free this,
- 12:07Speaker 8: I'm gonna take care of everyone. I'm going to tax
- 12:09Speaker 8: the rich. Don't you worry about it? You stay right
- 12:11Speaker 8: where you are. Well, guess what, how's that working out?
- 12:13Speaker 8: The state's not going to the state's not going to
- 12:15Speaker 8: raise income taxes on the wealthy. It's an election here,
- 12:18Speaker 8: Kathy Okle, she'll do it January if she gets re elected,
- 12:21Speaker 8: but she's not going to do it now. And so
- 12:22Speaker 8: Mondomie has been forced to out raid the Reserve Fund.
- 12:25Speaker 8: How do people feel about that?
- 12:27Speaker 1: So?
- 12:28Speaker 2: I hate to say it, but you really have.
- 12:30Speaker 8: Elections matter, and you have to pay attention whether or
- 12:32Speaker 8: not you get involved in politics. You have to understand
- 12:35Speaker 8: what's going on in politics. You recognize the decision you
- 12:38Speaker 8: make as consequences.
- 12:40Speaker 4: And that decision is costing you literally more than one
- 12:44Speaker 4: billion dollars to import four hundred thousand extra illegal immigrants
- 12:49Speaker 4: into California alone. This is how you destroy a country
- 12:54Speaker 4: from within, and Gavin Newsom is clearly going full speed
- 12:57Speaker 4: ahead to replace you with an illegal immigrant.
