• 0:22
  Speaker 3: Good Saturday morning to you.
• 0:23
  Speaker 4: Ben Ferguson with you, and these are some of the
• 0:26
  Speaker 4: stories that you may have missed that we talked about
• 0:29
  Speaker 4: this week on the forty seven Morning Update. First off,
• 0:32
  Speaker 4: a protester at Columbia University has direct ties to a
• 0:37
  Speaker 4: terrorist organization. We have the indictment and why the Trump
• 0:41
  Speaker 4: administration is now going after Columbia getting rid of their
• 0:45
  Speaker 4: taxpayer dollars that you were sending by the millions. We
• 0:49
  Speaker 4: also are going to cover what's going on in Colorado
• 0:52
  Speaker 4: and more information about a radical terrorist and his plan
• 0:56
  Speaker 4: to kill Jewish, innocent elderly people. And finally, one of
• 1:01
  Speaker 4: the biggest frauds in American government history this time dealing
• 1:06
  Speaker 4: with food stamps has been uncovered and you'll be angry
• 1:10
  Speaker 4: to find out just how much of your tax money
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: was stolen. It's the forty seven Morning Update and it
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: starts right now.
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: Story number one.
• 1:18
  Speaker 4: The Trump administration is very upset right now with many
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: American universities who are allowing anti Semitism to explode on
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: college campuses. Colombia is a perfect example of this, where
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: a protester and self proclaimed Jew hater, we now have
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: learned had direct links to Hamas terrasl this coming from
• 1:40
  Speaker 4: disturbing phone records as the DOJ is revealing all of this.
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: A Jew hater quote unquote, who.
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: Protested against Israel on Columbia University's campus and contemplated we
• 1:52
  Speaker 4: now have learned setting a student on fire allegedly had
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: a direct link to the Hamas Deadly Al Casam Brigade
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: militant group.
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: The Post is now reviewing.
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: The man is now a wedding trial after being indicted
• 2:07
  Speaker 4: on three federal hate crimes against Jewish people. He was
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: a member of a chat group that received regular updates
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: from the terrorist organization as well, and the accusation is
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: the first evidence of an agitator receiving information directly from
• 2:24
  Speaker 4: Hamas and taking action during protests on the University of
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: Colombia campus. Now the individual was twenty. I want to
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: be clear, he was not a Columbia student, but he
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: was on the campus protesting. He frequently wore the green
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: headband used by Hamas Terras and boasted to friends about
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: having relatives overseas who were actually a part of the
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: terror group. This all coming from the DOJ court filing.
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: While on Colombia's campus during protests in April of last year,
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: the individual allegedly Texas pals, saying he lit a flare
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: and consider delighting someone on fire, but that there was
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: quote too many people around him to take on, otherwise
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: he would have hurt them. A Columbia University said has
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: quote no record of the man being on campus and
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: wanted to quote be clear that this individual is not
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: affiliated with our university in any way. All right, so
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: why did you allow him to protest on your campus?
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: The university added that the school quote strongly condemns anti
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: Semitism and violence, and we are horrified by the violence
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: and hate crimes described in the incident. Well, you can
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: say that all you want, but the reality is Columbia
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: University has allowed this hate to grow on its campus,
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: which brings me to the second part of the story.
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: The Trump administration is now escalating pressure on Colombia, as
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: the Education Department is questioning the university's accreditation altogether.
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: Here's more of the story from Fox News.
• 3:54
  Speaker 5: The Trump administration is not backing down as it continues
• 3:57
  Speaker 5: its crackdown on campus anti semitism. The State Department is
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: vowing to investigate the visa status of anti Israel protesters
• 4:04
  Speaker 5: who are arrested after storming the school library this week.
• 4:07
  Speaker 6: The nature of our promise that people who are in
• 4:10
  Speaker 6: this country with the visa ange laws or affect the
• 4:14
  Speaker 6: nature of what's important to our country when it comes
• 4:17
  Speaker 6: to our foreign policy and national security, will be acted
• 4:19
  Speaker 6: on in that regard. And yes, he said it, and
• 4:22
  Speaker 6: I believe them, and that's the word you can take
• 4:24
  Speaker 6: for it.
• 4:25
  Speaker 5: Congress Woman Elise Stephanic says that schools like Columbia just
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: aren't paying attention. Here listen to what she has to say.
• 4:33
  Speaker 7: And the fact that these universities have allowed that to
• 4:36
  Speaker 7: perpetuate shows that they have been incapable of showing strong
• 4:39
  Speaker 7: leadership to allow safety for students, and they've allowed this
• 4:42
  Speaker 7: anti semitism to continue to rise. US taxpayers do not
• 4:46
  Speaker 7: want their dollars to prop up institutions that are unsafe
• 4:49
  Speaker 7: for Jewish students, and that has been the case at
• 4:51
  Speaker 7: places like Columbia.
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: One thing's for sure, the Trauma administration isn't screwing around
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: with anti semitism on college campuses, and they're going to
• 4:59
  Speaker 4: make it hurt for universities it refused to rein it in.
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: So well done to the Trump administration for doing this.
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: They're not holding back and they're stopping anti semitism, especially
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: when your tax dollars are going to these universities that
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: have been looking the other way for far too long.
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: Next story number two, there's one thing that we know
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: for sure. The media lied to us about the Egyptian
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: illegal who lit innocent people on fire in Boulder, Colorado.
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: We also know that the police chief in Boulder, Colorado
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: played politics and didn't want to tell you the truth
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: about this being a terrorist act. Well, that's not all
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: they're covering up, and that's part of the reason why
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: we do this show so you know exactly what is
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: happening in this investigation. One thing is for sure is
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: the Egyptian illegal immigrant who was led into this country
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: during the Biden administration said he quote wanted to kill
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: all Zonus people and had planned the attack for at
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: least a year. Mohammed Soliman has just been charged with
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: a federal hate crime. Here is more of what we've
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: learned from my good friends at Fox and Kaylee Mcanany.
• 6:06
  Speaker 8: We have some new details. Federal authorities releasing the charges
• 6:09
  Speaker 8: for the man accused of setting eight people on fire
• 6:12
  Speaker 8: and that targeted terror attack in Boulder, Colorado. Officials say
• 6:15
  Speaker 8: he's now being charged with a hate crime that's federally
• 6:18
  Speaker 8: and this is what they found. They found at least
• 6:21
  Speaker 8: fourteen unlit molotov cocktails on his person, along with that
• 6:25
  Speaker 8: makeshift flamethrower. The molotovs comprised of glass wine caraff bottles
• 6:30
  Speaker 8: or ball jars containing clear liquid and red rags hanging
• 6:34
  Speaker 8: out of the bottles. He made these himself. In fact,
• 6:37
  Speaker 8: it says that he researched on YouTube how to do this,
• 6:40
  Speaker 8: and later during an interview with the officials, the suspects stated, outright,
• 6:43
  Speaker 8: and he's talking. He stated he wanted to quote kill
• 6:47
  Speaker 8: all Zionist people and wished they were all dead. He
• 6:50
  Speaker 8: also stated that he would do it again emily. He
• 6:54
  Speaker 8: also said during this centerview he specifically targeted the Zionist
• 6:57
  Speaker 8: group that had gathered in Boulder. He knew they plan
• 7:00
  Speaker 8: to meet that day Sunday at one pm. He arrived
• 7:03
  Speaker 8: at twelve fifty five and waited for them.
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: I love that.
• 7:05
  Speaker 9: He also said that he's been planning this attack for
• 7:07
  Speaker 9: over a year, but he wanted to wait until his
• 7:09
  Speaker 9: daughter graduated because he gets to make that choice. But
• 7:12
  Speaker 9: what about the choice of the Jewish victims who don't
• 7:15
  Speaker 9: get to make a choice when they are attacked, or
• 7:17
  Speaker 9: don't get to make a choice if they die, which,
• 7:19
  Speaker 9: by the way, there with an attempt to murder, then
• 7:22
  Speaker 9: the hate crime charge brings a life imprisoned sentence, which
• 7:24
  Speaker 9: I hope he gets.
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: This is so foul.
• 7:26
  Speaker 9: And he also said that he learned on YouTube how
• 7:29
  Speaker 9: to make a Molotov cocktail. This is what is being
• 7:31
  Speaker 9: fomented right now that someone has the audacity, the ability,
• 7:35
  Speaker 9: and the actionable information to molotov cocktail and then flamethrow
• 7:40
  Speaker 9: against peaceful Jewish citizens and gets the luxury of doing
• 7:44
  Speaker 9: so after his daughter graduates, after he drives across the
• 7:46
  Speaker 9: country and builds his molotov cocktail with gas at the
• 7:49
  Speaker 9: gas station.
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: This is absolutely unacceptable.
• 7:51
  Speaker 9: We know that there are questions surrounding his identity given
• 7:54
  Speaker 9: that he's for some reason twenty one on his identification,
• 7:57
  Speaker 9: he shouldn't have been in this country and now people
• 7:59
  Speaker 9: are sufferings were horrifically, including a Holocaust survivor.
• 8:02
  Speaker 8: As you pointed out earlier.
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: A Holocaust survivor is one of the victims of this individual.
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: So the question you have to ask yourself is this,
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: why is the media still covering up this story.
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: Why are they not wanting to tell you that the.
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: Terrorist suspect said quote, he would do it again and
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: showed no remorse to those as he was speaking in
• 8:26
  Speaker 4: law enforcement. This also brings up another big story. We
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: also have the largest ICE raid that's just been conducted,
• 8:32
  Speaker 4: resulting in over fourteen hundred illegals being arrested in Massachusetts.
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: And the question is how many more terrorists are out
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: there that came to this country illegally, just like Mohammed Soliman,
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: the man who came from Egypt. Well, take a listen
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: to what the ICE director had to say when talking
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: about why they were forced to go into Massachusetts and
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: do a massive cleanup.
• 8:57
  Speaker 10: In the meantime, in Massachusetts, you had I think the
• 8:59
  Speaker 10: largest ever raid or at least a netting of arrests
• 9:03
  Speaker 10: of one thy four hundred and sixty one people.
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: That's the largest so far. And those that were arrested, seven.
• 9:09
  Speaker 10: Hundred and ninety of them had criminal convictions and two
• 9:12
  Speaker 10: hundred and seventy seven had what we were just talking
• 9:14
  Speaker 10: about final orders of removal or deportation.
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: Tell Us More and.
• 9:18
  Speaker 11: Dan, it was a great operation and the fact that
• 9:20
  Speaker 11: it was over the course of a month really shows
• 9:22
  Speaker 11: the commitment of the men and women of Vice here
• 9:23
  Speaker 11: in Massachusetts and all over New England.
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: And we took a whole government approach.
• 9:27
  Speaker 11: We used all of our partners, to include diplomatic security,
• 9:30
  Speaker 11: the US Marshall Service atf FBI DEA to really locate
• 9:34
  Speaker 11: and arrest these criminal aliens. One highlight for this operation
• 9:38
  Speaker 11: is the fact that it was successful because we worked
• 9:41
  Speaker 11: with our joint partners in a sanctuary state like Massachusetts,
• 9:44
  Speaker 11: where it's extremely difficult. Where we had operations tidal Wave
• 9:47
  Speaker 11: last month in Florida, there was a week long operation
• 9:49
  Speaker 11: working with our state partners. That's a state that cooperates
• 9:52
  Speaker 11: with us. Here in Massachusetts, we don't have any cooperations
• 9:55
  Speaker 11: from the local departments or from the state, which makes
• 9:58
  Speaker 11: it extremely difficult for IC get out there and find
• 10:00
  Speaker 11: these bad guys.
• 10:01
  Speaker 4: You think about how many prospective terrorists are among us
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: that came across the border, and we're given, in essence,
• 10:08
  Speaker 4: the ability to stay here and protection from the Biden
• 10:10
  Speaker 4: Harrish regime. When you look at what's happening in Massachusetts
• 10:14
  Speaker 4: where the state and local authorities are refusing to take
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: out the bad guys, it tells you just how dangerous
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: it is for every American, no matter where you live.
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: And here is story number three.
• 10:26
  Speaker 4: It is a story that is shocking but becoming all
• 10:29
  Speaker 4: to normal. Six people, including a USDA employee, have been
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: busted in what is being described as a sixty six
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: million dollar food stamp fraud scheme. A USDA employee responsible
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: for identifying SNAP fraud allegedly sold hundreds of EBT numbers,
• 10:50
  Speaker 4: enabling over thirty six million in fraudulent SNAP redemptions at
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: unauthorized stores. Michael Keyo reportedly orchestrated network that supplied the
• 11:03
  Speaker 4: approximately one hundred and sixty unauthorized EBT terminals to stores
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: across the New York area to illegally process more than
• 11:12
  Speaker 4: thirty million in EBT transactions. This is now going down
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: in history as one of the largest food stamp frauds ever.
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: The USDA employee.
• 11:23
  Speaker 4: And five others that have been now charged in the
• 11:25
  Speaker 4: multimillion dollar food stamp fraud and bribery scheme are being
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: looked at for exactly what they are con artists that
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: had access within our government to pull this off. The
• 11:37
  Speaker 4: question now is where else could this be done around
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: the country and how much of your tax dollars are
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: being stolen by fraudulent terminals and fake people and fake
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: food stamps that are actually just going to let people
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: get extremely rich. There is one good thing. It's very
• 11:56
  Speaker 4: clear now that the Trump administration is going all to
• 12:00
  Speaker 4: find this type of waste, fraud and abuse.
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: And yes, Elon Musk may.
• 12:06
  Speaker 4: Have moved on from what was always going to be
• 12:09
  Speaker 4: a temporary role with DOGE, but it doesn't mean that
• 12:13
  Speaker 4: the work is stopping anytime soon, and this is a
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: perfect example of it.
