  Speaker 3: deported in Trump's first year in office. That doesn't count
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: all that are being stopped at the southern border. Also,
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: the courts have thrown out that egregious over a half
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: billion dollar penalty in the civil trial with Donald Trump,
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: So what comes next? And finally, Democrats have now been

• 3:03
  Speaker 3: It's a forty seven morning Update, men, it starts right now.
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: Story Number one.
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: Promises Made, Promises kept. That for me is the theme
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: of Donald Trump's time in office so far. The Trump administration,
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: we're now being told, is on pace to deport four
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: hundred thousand illegal immigrants in one year. Trump administration is
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: deporting about one thousand and five hundred people per day.
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: Is on track to deport more than four and a
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: one thousand people in his first year in office. The
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: New York Times is now reporting now, of course they're
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: criticizing the president for doing it. That's how you know
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: the presdent's doing a damn good job. At least one
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: hundred and eighty thousand people have been deported by Immigrations
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: and Customs Enforcement under President Donald Trump. The Time states
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: deportations have increased as ICE got a massive increase in
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: funding from the Big Beautiful bill that was signed into law. Again,
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: the bill that they said was going to ruin America
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: so much for that lie. At its current pace, ICE
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: would deport more than four hundred thousand people. That is
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: a sharp increase from the two hundred and seventy one
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: thousand people removed last year by ICE, though far short
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: of the goal of one hundred or of one million
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: set by the Trump administration. Now, the Department of All
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: Land Security says the total number of deportations so far
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: under Trump is three hundred and twenty two thousand. That
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: figure includes people who are turned around or quickly deported
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: at the US borders by Customs and Border Protection. The
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: Times also states ICE is using a dozen charter planes
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: per day. If that's not taxpayer money used the right way,
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: I don't know what is to conduct deportations and transport detainees.
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: That's double the number used in January. According to Tom Cartwright,
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: an immigration advocate who is tracking the ICE flights, yes
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: they're angry. There are more than sixty thousand people in custody.
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: The Times reported ICE is at at least fifty new
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: detention centers since Trump took office as well, and more
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: than six thousand people being held there. The White House
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: for months has emphasized the administration's broader strategy on immigration
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: as the deportation tally has ticked upward. Through its Project
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: Homecoming initiative announce in May, the administration has offered financial
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: incentives and streamlined processes to encourage voluntary departures, with aggressive
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: enforcement measures for those who remain. That according to a
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: White House fact sheet that was put out in public messaging,
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: officials have described the deportation campaign as historic, an aggressive effort,
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: highlighting record breaking numbers of arrests and expanded capacity for
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: detaining and removing undocumented immigrants. So here we are the President,
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: United States of America, promising to clean up the immigration
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: problem in this country. And what we're witnessing right now
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: is that Trump administration is on pay to deport more
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: than four hundred thousand people in year one. This is
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: also happening as liberals are fighting every time they get
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: a chance to stop the President and Ice from doing
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: their jobs. Could the numbers go up? Yes? Could they
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: go even higher next year? Yes? One thing is for sure.
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: The President is setting a message that while he's in
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: office on what happened under Joe Biden will never happen again.
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: Next story number two.
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: All right, an appeals court, and this is big news.
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: A New York appeals court has thrown out a five
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: hundred million dollar penalty against Donald Trump Letitia James, that crazy,
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: insane civil case. It's another story and another big victory
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: for the president United States of America. The court ruled
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: that this was an excessive fine that actually violated the
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: Eighth Amendment. Yes, it violated it, and that's exactly why
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: they said no. The appellate court throwing out the five
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: hundred million dollar civil fraud penalty against the sitting president
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: in this quote high profile case brought by that radical
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: leftist New York attorney general. Now, remember when she was
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: running for office, what did she say she was going
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: to do. She was going to make sure that Donald
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: Trump knew her name. She said, if you vote for me,
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: I'm going after Donald Trump. And that's exactly what she did.
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: And when she went after Donald Trump, she also fundraised
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: off of it, saying give me your money. I'm the
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: one trying to lock up Donald Trump. Well, now we
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: have real justice. The New York Coppellate Division overturning the penalty,
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: ruling that this was egregious. It was an excessive fine
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: that clearly violates the Eighth Amendment. The five member panel
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: all upheld findings that Trump and his companies were liable,
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: affirming that James acted within her authority and that this
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: injunctive relief to curb Trump's organization practices as they described it,
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: were appropriate. Now, remember this is a liberal court. But
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: here's the other part you need to understand. The ruling
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: leaves liability intact, but eliminates the massive financial penalty of
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: three hundred and sixty four million plus interests, which actually
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: rises to a round five hundred million. Trump took the
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: true social to declare quote a total victory and railed
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: against James and the original trial judge you may remember
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: him as Arthur James claimed a win too, of course,
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: because the left always does that, noting that the appeals
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: court upheld the findings of fraud and restrictions on Trump's businesses,
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: and she pledged to appeal the penalty decision. Total victory,
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: she said, is fake news. Yes, Trump, there you go.
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: That's who she's going after. Here's the other thing that
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: was interesting. Listen carefully quote. I greatly respect the fact
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: that court had to the courage to throw out this
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: unlawful and disgraceful decision. Was hurting businesses all throughout New
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: York State. Others were afraid to do business there. The
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: amount in quitting interests and penalties was over five hundred
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: and fifty million. It was a political witch hunt there,
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: and said in a business sense the likes of which
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: no one has ever seen before. The court, by the way,
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: agreed with the president on that. Trump also blasted the
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: case his election interference, saying it was tried during the
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: twenty twenty four presidential campaign, locking him up in court
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: instead of out on the campaign trail. He also praised
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: Justice David Friedman, who issued a partial dissent, Freeman wrote
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: that james true aim was political and argue the entire
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: case should be dismissed. He said her ultimate goal was
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: not market hygiene, but political hygiene, ending with the derailment
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: of President Trump's political career and the destruction of his
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: real estate business. Freeman also blasted james use of section
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: sixty three twelve of New York's executive law, which gives
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: the state attorney general broad power to pursue civil fraud claims.
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: He wrote that it was unprecedented and political, giving James
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: essentially limited less power to prosecute her political opponents, which,
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: if you go back to her own words, that's what
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: she said she was going to do. Elect me, vote
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: for me, keep me in office, send me your money,
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: and I'm going to lock up Donald Trump and his family.
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: Freeman wrote that Trump's business deals involved sophisticated parties who,
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: by the way, profited without harming the public, and concluded
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: he would reverse the judgment and dismiss the complaint. Now
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: section sixty three twelve has never been used in the
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: way it is being used in this case. He continued
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: to write, namely to attack successful private commercial transactions negotiated
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: arms links between highly sophisticated parties, fully capable of monitoring
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: and defending their own interests. Friedman continued, All parties to
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: these private transactions profited handsomely from the deals from which
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: there were no negative effects on the public interest. So
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: this was one of those like victimless crimes. No one
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: was hurt, everybody made money. And what do they do.
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: They went after the President of the United States of
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: America instead. It's disgusting.
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: And here is story number three.
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: The Biden administration, we're now learning, packed swing states with
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: over one million illegal aliens. Why solely for a power
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: grap in. Just two years into his first term as president,
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: President Joe Biden's border policies helped welcome more than a
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: million illegal aliens to the nation's electoral swing states, and
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: additionally some four hundred and fifty thousand illegal aliens into
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: Texas alone. The latest Pew Research Center estimates specifically look
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: at the rate at which Biden increased the illegal alien
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: population in a two year window from twenty twenty one
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: to twenty twenty three. Notably, the Biden administration packed swing
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: states with more than a million illegal aliens during those
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: two years, with likely many more resettling in such states.
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: From twenty three through twenty twenty four, in particular, the
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: swing state of Florida, so it's illegal alien population grow
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: by a staggering seven hundred thousand in just two years
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: under President Biden. Another example of just how much they
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: wanted to pack this country with the legal immigrants to
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: change the electoral map completely is Georgia. Georgia not even
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: close to the border with Mexico, well, their illegal alien
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: population grew by more than one hundred thousand. Pennsylvania and
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: Michigan each added at least eighty thousand legal aliens to
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: their resident populations in twenty twenty one. In twenty twenty two,
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: North Carolina is another great example, as a swing state,
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: added one hundred thousand plus illegal aliens from twenty twenty
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: one in twenty twenty two. In Ohio adding almost seventy
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: five thousand more as well. Arizona added fifty thousand legal
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: aliens in the two years of the first two years
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: of Biden administration. Nevada and Wisconsin each absorbed thirty thousand
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: illegal aliens during the first two years. Colorado, which is
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: rapidly turned blue in the last decade saw more than
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: one illegal aliens added to its population in twenty twenty
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: one and twenty twenty two. If you look at the
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: total population from these states, this is a massive increase.
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: And then look at New Hampshire for example, they have
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: a population of one point four million. They added more
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: than ten thousand illegal aliens in the first two years
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: of the Biden administration. Now why is this so significant?
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: The Biden administration knew what they were doing, and they
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: knew they were overseeing a massive surge of illegal aliens
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: in non border states that would help them when it
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: came to redistricting and to how many representatives different states
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: receive based on population. They knew that illegal immigrants are
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: going to be counted in the census. And that's exactly
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: why when the bob wire was put down at the
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: southern border in Texas, Joe Biden sent in what forkliffs
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: to raise it up to allow more illegals into the country.
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: You'll look at illegal aliens in New Jersey, for example,
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: which election predators say could be taped over the next
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: ten years. In Texas, a GOP stronghold, the Democrats have
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: long sought to flip to their side Texas alone, during
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: the first two years the Biden administration absorbed about a
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: half a million illegal aliens in just the first two
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: years under Biden. Now, New Jersey saw an influx of
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: more than one hundred and fifty thousand illegal aliens during
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: that same period. The Pew Research Center estimates that the
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: illegal alien population also had a record in twenty twenty
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: three under Biden at more than fourteen million. Now, again,
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: this was in twenty twenty three. Scholarly estimates from years
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: prior suggests the illegal alien population today in twenty twenty
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: five as well, above twenty two million, which brings us
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: back to reality. Why is Donald Trump doing so much
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: to secure the border, and why is Donald Trump doing
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: so much to make sure the census doesn't count legal aliens?
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: And why is Donald Trump doing so much to make
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: sure that illegal immigrants are not given the right to
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: vote so they alter and change our elections. Because he
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: understands what the Biden administration was trying to do. They
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: were trying to pack swing states with well over a
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: million illegal aliens from day one of the Biden administration
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: within the first two years, and what happened after we
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: had an open border policy during those first two years.
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: They then rolled out the red carpet for illegal aliens.
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: They started giving them hotel rooms and credit cards and
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: sell phones and food. They started giving them everything to
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: entice them to flood America. And you may ask yourself
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: this question, why do we not have the numbers after
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: twenty twenty two, because there's so many people who are
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: trying to count. There are so many illegal immigrants there.
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: And this goes back to what Donald Trump has been
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: saying since the very beginning. If you don't have a
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: secure border, you don't have a country. And now we
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: understand the plan Biden administration said, Let's pack the Swing States,
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: just like we want to pack the Supreme Court, and
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: then we'll give them in and they'll vote for US forever.
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: And that's exactly why Donald Trump is fighting it so
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: hard right now.
