• 0:01
  Speaker 1: Are you going to deploy marines in California.
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: We'll see what happens. I mean, I think we have
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: it very well under control. I think it would have
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: been a very bad situation. It was heading in the
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: wrong direction. It's now heading in the right direction. And
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: we hope to have the support of Gavin because Gavin's
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: the big beneficiary as we straighten out his problems. I mean,
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: his state is a mess.
• 0:21
  Speaker 3: You're listening to the forty seven Morning Update with Ben ferguson.
• 0:25
  Speaker 4: Good Tuesday morning. Welcome, it is the forty seven Morning Update,
• 0:29
  Speaker 4: and we have one big story for you today. Gavin
• 0:33
  Speaker 4: Newsom says it's not an insurrection in California, but he
• 0:37
  Speaker 4: is wanting to sue the President of the United States
• 0:39
  Speaker 4: of America, suing Trump for what he says is the
• 0:42
  Speaker 4: legal takeover of the California National Guard. Legal experts say
• 0:47
  Speaker 4: Gavin Newsom's gonna lose this battle, but it doesn't matter
• 0:51
  Speaker 4: because he's decided to put politics over public safety. We're
• 0:55
  Speaker 4: also going to talk about this spreading and is this
• 0:59
  Speaker 4: organic or is this just another summer of rage being
• 1:03
  Speaker 4: paid for by the radical left that we saw under
• 1:05
  Speaker 4: Black Lives Matter and Finally, what is the president saying
• 1:10
  Speaker 4: in response to all of this? You're gonna hear his
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: own words. It's the forty seven Morning Update, and it
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: starts right now.
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: Story number one.
• 1:19
  Speaker 4: Anarchy and chaos continuing to erupt in LA and now
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: coming to a city near you. In fact, it's almost
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: likely seen this before in the summer of rage with
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: Black Lives Matter protests that popped up all over the country. Well,
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: now in LA, they're not going after the actual bad
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: guys that are attacking law enforcement. No, no, no, they're
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: now coming after Donald Trump and threatening to sue the governor,
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: making this his political stand. Let me just remind you
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: what the same Democrats were saying over the weekend. Elizabeth
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: Warren was saying it was just, you know, peaceful protests.
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: Kamala Harris refer to it overwhelmingly peaceful protests. Corey Booker
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: said it was a peaceful protest again on the Sunday
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: morning shows, and Gavin Newsom said that the anarchy you're
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: seeing right now on TV is quote under control. Even
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: the Los Angeles Police Department line saying it was quote
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: a weekend you know, without incident quote unquote. So how
• 2:24
  Speaker 4: did it change? So quickly. We're now California is saying
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: they're suing Donald Trump and they're angry that Donald Trump
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: set in the National Guard. Now, I want to play
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: for you. Donald Trump, in his own words, asked about
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: two different things, one about setting in the National Guard
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: and two Gavin Newsom in California threatening to sue Donald Trump.
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: That's right. They're not going after the rapists or the terrorists.
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: They're not going after the human smugglers, the sex traffickers.
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: They're not going after those that are selling FETNL that
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: is killing more Americans my age than anything else in
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: this country's history. No, no, no, Instead, they're doing what
• 3:04
  Speaker 4: democrats do well. They're suing Donald Trump.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: When you were talking about unrest in American cities, you said, quote,
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: we have to go by the laws. We can't call
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: in the National Guard unless we're requested by a governor.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: What change now, why is this situation different to not
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: consult with governor? Knew some about the Well, the.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: Biggest change from that statement is we have an incompetent governor.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: So I talked about governors, but I didn't talk about
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: he's an incompetent governor. Look at the job he's doing
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: in California. He's destroying one of our great states. And
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: if I didn't get involved, if we didn't bring the
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: guard in, and we would bring more in if we
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: needed it, because we have to make sure there's going
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: to be law and order. You had a disaster happening,
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: and they now admit it was a disaster. I watched
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: the chief yesterday. It was a good man, by the way,
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: and he said, well, we're lucky we did this, because
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: they would They were overwhelmed. You saw what was happening,
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: So we did the right thing. Everybody agrees to that.
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: But you have a governor who let the city burn
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: down and didn't want water to be sent down to
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: im and I sent billions of gallons of water. I
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: wanted to do it in the first term. We wouldn't
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: do it over I don't know they have environmental reasons,
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: but there were no environmental reasons. It's I think it's
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: just a political philosophy. But it's lucky for the people
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: in Los Angeles and in California that we did what
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: we did. We got it just in time. It's still
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: simmering a little bit. Primary crime is running for governor
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: because he's done such a bad job. What he's done
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: to that state is like what Biden did to this country,
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: and that's pretty bad. It's a wrong philosophy. Thousands, hundreds
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: of thousands of illegal immigrants, many of them prisoners. They
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: are taking up your health care, they're taking up your
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: space and schools, they're taking up your hospital and in
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: many cases they're criminals, and we have to do something
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: about it, and we're doing something about it. I want
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: to thank the incredible patriots of Ice and Tom Holman
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: who's been incredible, and Christinome likewise incredible the job they're doing.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: And it's like an unforced eraror there was no reason
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: for this. Twenty one million people were allowed into our
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: country and many of those people were criminals, and it's
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: a shame. It's a shame, but we're getting them out.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: And I will say I think it's a ninety five
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: to five issue, just like so many other issues, ninety
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: five to five, and the Democrats lost an election in
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: a landslide because they're on the wrong side of the issues.
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's not even conceivable that somebody would do
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: the kind of things that he did. And then you know,
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: you talk about projects they want to build a train
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: going from San Francisco to la and it's costing hundreds
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: of billions of dollars more than they thought it was
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: going to cost. It's not even believable to bread and
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: to people sitting here. Would you believe that a train
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: it was going to cost X dollars that it might
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: be one hundred times X would have paid for this
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: for about fifty million American children. You're right, fifty million
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: American children. Instead of a three mile train track that
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: never got built. We could have put Lincoln in judge
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: with no experience. He would have done a good job.
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: I guarantee you that, please, Peter.
• 6:18
  Speaker 5: So it seems like Gavin Newsom likes the attention that
• 6:22
  Speaker 5: he's getting right now. From I do, it seems like
• 6:24
  Speaker 5: he does. He If you look at recent history, somebody
• 6:29
  Speaker 5: who was running for president you who got arrested and
• 6:32
  Speaker 5: had a mugshot, you could make the argument that politically
• 6:35
  Speaker 5: that wound up helping you. Are you worried at all
• 6:38
  Speaker 5: at this moment, but talking about him getting arrested could
• 6:41
  Speaker 5: be helpful to his political prospects because a lot of
• 6:45
  Speaker 5: people think he wants to be sitting right where you.
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: Are, well in my case, it was a witch hunt
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: and everybody knew it, and I was able to explain
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: that during the process, otherwise I wouldn't be sitting here
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: right now, And it was a total witch hunt. Has
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: proven to be a witch hunt. And you see what's
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: happened in his case. It really is very obvious to
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: look at what's happened between the fires. Between it. I
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: could name ten things right now. We talk about the trains,
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: we talk about all of the costs in California, you
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: talk about all of the people that are flowing and
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: destroying life for everyone else. So no, I don't think
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: it's going to help them. I think it's actually very
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: bad for him.
• 7:19
  Speaker 5: And right around the time that we were walking in here,
• 7:22
  Speaker 5: the governor and the state attorney general said that they're
• 7:26
  Speaker 5: going to sue you for sending the National Guard. And
• 7:28
  Speaker 5: they're saying there's no invasion, there's no rebellion. The president
• 7:31
  Speaker 5: is trying to manufacture chaos and crisis on the ground
• 7:35
  Speaker 5: for his own political ends. Federalizing the California National Guard
• 7:39
  Speaker 5: is an abuse of the president's authority under law.
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: Well, you know, it's interesting, you watched the same clips
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: as I did, cars burning all over the place, people
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: riding and by the way we stopped it, we were
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: able to make it much better, but it still looked
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: pretty bad. And in watching clips last night, people were saying,
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: this is really a big problem until we went in.
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: If we didn't do the job, that place would be
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: burning down, just like the houses burned down. They were
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: in big trouble last night, Peter, you know it, and
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: the night before and the night before that. And I
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: feel we had no choice. I don't want to see
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: I don't want to see happen what happened so many
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: times in this country. I watched Minneapolis burn, I watched
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: look at what happened in so many different parts of California.
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: You take a look at what happened in San Diego.
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: There's so many different places where we let it burn.
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: We want to be politically correct, We wanted to be nice.
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: We want to be nice to the criminal, and what
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: you're doing is destroying the fabric of our life in
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: this country. Now, we did the right thing. We've been
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: given credit for by people that I would least suspect why.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: I would say that some of the people that came
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: in and said thank goodness, they said some of them.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: Thank God that Trump got involved, and I'm very happy
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: I got involved, and I think Gavin, in his own way,
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: is probably happy I got involved.
• 8:58
  Speaker 5: You go ahead, But what do you make of the
• 9:01
  Speaker 5: fact that he says, you want a civil war on
• 9:04
  Speaker 5: the streets of America.
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: No, that's just the opposite. I don't want a civil war.
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: Civil war would happen if you left it, if you
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: left it to people like him. And I liked him,
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: you know, I always got along with him, never had
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: a problem with him. But he's grossly incompetent.
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: One thing's for sure, Donald Trump is not backing down.
• 9:22
  Speaker 4: He is going to protect American citizens, even in sanctuary cities,
• 9:26
  Speaker 4: Which brings me the second part of the conversation, what
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: is going to happen next? It is very clear that
• 9:32
  Speaker 4: the Democrats and their donors are going to help spread
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: all of this chaos to many other cities. As I'm
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: doing the show right now, we are seeing protests pop
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: up from Florida to Texas and pretty much now everywhere
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: in between. There is no doubt that the Democratic Party
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: is behind this, and they're mega donors. This is what
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: they do. I also want to say this, expect a
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: lot more of this to happen in the days and
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: the weeks ahead. Democrats believe that law and orders should
• 10:06
  Speaker 4: not take place in their sanctuary cities. In fact, they
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: want this chaos so they can blame it on Donald Trump,
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: which brings me to Christie no. Christy Nome, the Department
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: of Homeland Security secretary, came out and had this to
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: say about what's happening in LA. Listen carefully to the
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: words she chooses as she's explaining what's happening with the
• 10:29
  Speaker 4: leaders there.
• 10:30
  Speaker 6: Yeah, well, absolutely mean that's Sean. Those are the people
• 10:32
  Speaker 6: we're going after. I mean, those are our targets today
• 10:35
  Speaker 6: we head over four to five hundred targets we were
• 10:37
  Speaker 6: going after. There were known members of gangs in LA
• 10:41
  Speaker 6: that have been victimizing people for years that Gavin Newsom
• 10:45
  Speaker 6: has done absolutely nothing about.
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: That.
• 10:47
  Speaker 6: Mayor Bass has done absolutely nothing about Listen. I served
• 10:50
  Speaker 6: with her in Congress before she was ever mayor, and
• 10:53
  Speaker 6: she is a train wreck of a mayor now that
• 10:55
  Speaker 6: is endorsing these kind of activities, has allowed her city
• 10:59
  Speaker 6: to be completely devastated with crime, and now she's holding
• 11:02
  Speaker 6: press conferences talking about the fact that people have the
• 11:05
  Speaker 6: right to peacefully protest and that they're a city of immigrants. Well,
• 11:09
  Speaker 6: they're not a city of immigrants, they're a city of
• 11:11
  Speaker 6: criminals because she has protected them for so many years.
• 11:14
  Speaker 6: And so we're coming in and doing what the President
• 11:17
  Speaker 6: has said that he's going to do, and he's going
• 11:19
  Speaker 6: to allow people to live in a safe community again,
• 11:22
  Speaker 6: and we're going to use the authority that he has
• 11:24
  Speaker 6: as president of the United States to conduct these operations.
• 11:28
  Speaker 6: And the more that people conduct violence against law enforcement officers, boy,
• 11:32
  Speaker 6: we're going to hit him back, and we're going to
• 11:33
  Speaker 6: hit him back harder than we ever had before. And
• 11:36
  Speaker 6: we conducted more operations today than we did the day before,
• 11:39
  Speaker 6: and tomorrow we're going to double those efforts again. The
• 11:42
  Speaker 6: more that they protest and commit acts of violence against
• 11:46
  Speaker 6: law enforcement officers, the harder ice is going to kind
• 11:49
  Speaker 6: of come after them. Because these people are patriots. These
• 11:52
  Speaker 6: ice officers are people who are fighting for their country
• 11:55
  Speaker 6: and I'm so proud of them. They've acted with dignity,
• 11:58
  Speaker 6: they've acted with grace under stressful situations, and when they've
• 12:02
  Speaker 6: been disrespected, they've responded appropriately under the law to make
• 12:06
  Speaker 6: sure that they were treating every single individual the same
• 12:09
  Speaker 6: and making sure that due process was followed and that
• 12:12
  Speaker 6: they were doing their jobs. So this is an unfortunate
• 12:16
  Speaker 6: situation that we see violence and instigators out there, but
• 12:20
  Speaker 6: the President Trump is really dedicated to bringing peace again.
• 12:23
  Speaker 4: Christine Noman's right. LA is not a city of immigrants.
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: They are a city of criminals under the mayor's protection,
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: and she protected them for so many years that this
• 12:32
  Speaker 4: anarchy and chaos is now the reality. I will also
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: say it again and remember this moment. The Democratic Party
• 12:40
  Speaker 4: is going to do everything they can to turn La
• 12:44
  Speaker 4: into the test case. They're going to learn from what
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: they've done, and they're going to move this to other cities.
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: They're going to act like it's organic. It is pre planned,
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: well organized, and paid for by the radical left that
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: cares more or about illegal immigrants than those in this
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: country that are actually American citizens. And that's exactly who
• 13:08
  Speaker 4: Donald Trump is trying to protect.
