You're listening to the forty seven Morning Update with Ben ferguson.
Good Wednesday morning. Welcome, it's the forty seven Morning Update, and let me start by saying this. If you are new to the show, please make sure you hit that subscribe button and share today's show everywhere, because we are exposing the lies of the left and the media on what's happening with the riots in LA, which brings me
to the first story. We are going to expose the media line saying that what you're witnessing is peaceful, and we're also going to talk about the prediction that was made right here that this is not organic and now we're seeing it spread in a very organized way to more than twenty states and major sanctuary cities. We're also going to talk about Donald Trump and what he had to say at Fort Bragg about holding the people in LA accountable for the lawlessness that we're witnessing. It's an
important show, so share it. Wherever you can on social media. But first, folks, we are seeing something truly disturbing, and that is anti Semitism on the rise around the world, and sadly, right here in America. Jewish schools are being targeted, synagogues are being threatened, families are living in fear. It's something we'd hoped we'd never see again in our lifetime. And let me say this, silence is not an option.
This is the moment that we stand with men, women, and children and Holocaust survivors in Israel and in America. And that's why I want you to know about the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. They are on the front lines providing real help where it's needed the most. They're giving food and shelter to Jewish families under threat, They're building bomb shelters for children. They're helping survivors of hate rebuild their lives. And they don't just respond to crisis,
they work every day to prevent it as well. Your gift to forty five dollars will help support their life saving work by helping provide food, shelter, and much more. The Bible says I will bless those who bless you, and supporting IFCJ is a spiritual stand. It's showing up for God's people when they need us the most. So please think about getting involved with IFCJ, as I've done. They're an incredible organization where what you do has a direct impact on the people of Israel. The number eight
eight eight for eight eight IFCJ. That's eight eight eight four eight eight IFCJ, or go online to IFCJ dot org. Every dollar helps, so please give and make a difference IFCJ dot org or eight at eight four eight eight IFCJ. It's the forty seven Morning Update and it starts right now.
Story number one.
US cities are all now under siege. If it is a Democrat or sanctuary city, it is not organic what we are witnessing in LA and now we have a big list of cities in more than twenty states where protests quote in solidarity with the Los Angeles anti ice demonstrations are expanding. You may remember that we talked about this on this show a few days ago, and we predicted that this is exactly what was going to happen.
It is going to be just like the summer of rage that we saw with Black Lives Matter and Now the west coast in California, it's expanded far beyond there. Yes, San Francisco's gotten into the action, Santa Anna, Sacramento, and now it's moved to Phoenix, Houston, San Antonio, Austin, Dallas, Seattle, Portland, Salt Lake City, Detroit, Michigan, Hartford, Boston, Philadelphia. All of these cities now and very well orchestrated events are doing
the same thing that's happening in LA. We're also singing it in Atlanta, in Baltimore, New York City, Washington, d C, Tampa, Florida, Jacksonville, Florida, Raleigh, North Carolina, Louisville, Kentucky. Now, if you look at what we've seen so far, these quote solidarity protests have span at least twenty states, indicating a quote nationwide response to the LA raids and federal actions. Now, while most have quote been peaceful, the media wants you to believe some
have included arrests and confrontations. But wait, isn't it the media that's been lying to us the entire time saying that this is not actually cars being set on fire or businesses that are, you know, being looted. In fact, let's just go to California congresswoman. She said she was out there, she saw it, and there was nothing bad happening.
And even those who were out of step with what we are advocating peaceful protest, did not create any violence. Nobody was shot, nobody was killed. Get it in your head. And so when martial law is called, what are you going to say, I missed the pont. Don't miss the pont. You all don't think that somehow because they called out the National Guard there was violence. There was no violence. I was on the street, I know, and I went from downtown Detention back out into the community talking to people.
What happened in Paramount, what happened in Compton, what happened in Inglewood. So first of all, get it straight and don't just rely on what you have been told. Are the few incidents that.
You saw Maxine Waters telling you. Don't believe you're lying eyes. Don't believe that there are cars on fire, businesses on fire, looting and rioting in LA. It's not happening. Now She's not the only one getting it on the action. Here's another montage we put together for you of the media also lying and telling you that what you are witnessing is not actually happening.
The La County Police say that they have it under control. Hearing a flag is not illegal. As you know, what did happen in nineteen ninety two was so different from what we're seeing now. I mean, that was a real riot.
Video after video has shown that these agents are the ones provoking protesters and also making up aggression by these protesters, and later video shows people were not aggressive.
We are having an administration that's targeting peaceful protests, people that are there at protests. The president is sitting in the National Guard because he doesn't like the scenes. He doesn't like the scenes of people peacefully protesting.
Unrest is isolated. LA has homed millions of people, most of them are having a normal day here on Sunday.
You know, you've heard reports that there are riots on the streets of Los Angeles. That is not what's happening across the city of Los Angeles.
Covenson's right, like a riot happening on Friday, Saturday, And we just.
Witnessed protesters thanking a National guardsman for his service. Here in California.
LAPD by most estimates, had this under control last night.
No I don't think the National Guard is needed now. Things in La are calm.
There was a protest that got a little unruly late at night.
There have been no violence where anybody that was protesting hit, anybody, shot anybody, right, anybody nothing.
What is just a bunch of people having fun watching cars burn.
Most of those demonstrations were very peaceful.
They were chanting, they were shoting, people were driving by plonking their arms.
This is again the media wanting you to believe that nothing at all bad happened in La or in any other cities where this is going to expand. Now, let me also be very clear about one other issue. This is not organic. We now are seeing and witnessing that this isn't organized campaign very much like we saw in the Summer of Rage just a few years ago. And even the media that is trying to cover this in a okay, it's not that bad way, are now having
to tell you a little bit of the truth. NBC News newest headline says his immigration raids continue, ice protests spread coast to coasts. Activists quote plan even more events in New York, Chicago, Dallas, and Atlanta. A curfew covering a compact area of downtown Los Angeles as likely. The mayor has also said, now they are finally having to show the cars that are on fire, and so yes,
they are being caught in their own lives. We have to make sure that every American understands this is all being done for one reason, to undermine the rule of law, fundamentally changes country and advocating for illegal immigrants over American citizens.
Now story number two.
President Donald Trump went to Fort Hood and he also took a moment to make sure that the American people knew what he believed in his stance on what is happening in LA now. Not only was he greeted with cheers from the troops, he also talked about giving back the old name of Fort Hood over whatever they called it before in the woke agenda of the last administration, Donald Trump telling the soldiers the LA protests are a national security risk. Here's more of what he had to say.
Before going further, I want to say a few words about the situation in Los Angeles, California. Have you heard of the place where I've deployed thousands of National Guard troops and hundreds of Marines to protect federal law enforcement from the attacks of a vicious and violent mob, and some of the radical left they say, oh, that's not nice. Well, if we didn't do it, it wouldn't be a los Ange. It would be burning today, just like the houses were
burning a number of months ago. Generations of army heroes did not shed their blood on distant sures only to sto our country be destroyed by invasion and third world lawlessness here at home, like is happening in California. As commander in Chief, I will not let that happens, Never gonna happen. What your witnessing in California is a full blown assault on peace, on public order, and a national sovereignty carried out by rioters bearing foreign flags with the
aim of continuing a foreign invasion of our country. We're not going to let that happen. Under the Trump administration. This anarchy will not stand. We will not allow federal agents to be attacked, and we will not allow an American city to be invaded and conquered by a foreign enemy. That's what they are. A lot of those people will lit in here by the Biden administration. They just poured right in.
They just poured right in. Now there's also another few that is happening right now, and that is between Gavin news Simmon, Donald Trump, and the latest clash is well over a lie. Apparently that Gavin news I'm told about not having a call with President Trump. Well, guess what
the Trump administration says. We've got the receipts President Trump telling Fox News did he contacted Gavin Newsom, the governor of California, on June the seventh, and in fact they spoke for about sixteen minutes to discuss the unrest in Los Angeles. He's now offered a screenshot of a call log as proof. Newsom, of course, is denying any communication with Donald Trump in the past day, stating there was quote no call or voicemail and accusing the White House
of misleading the public. Now, he maintained that while he did speak with Trump late Friday night around one thirty am Saturday, the National Guard deployment never came up during the nearly twenty minute conversation. He called Trump a stone cold liar for mischaracterizing what happened in the call. Now,
the key discrepancy here is this. The log showed June seventh at won twenty three am, and he publicly declared the call happened a day ago, now is acknowledging a Friday late night chat, but emphasize the National Guard issue was not mentioned then, and then any claim of a recent call is quote false. So yet again you've got a story changing and the governor lying to the people,
all for a political reason. The disagreement is also part of the escalating tension around Donald Trump having to send in the National Guard and the people in La feeling unsafe. This is now moving into multiple days of protests and it does not look like the governor or the mayor has anything really under control. In fact, take a listen to the mayor of La in her own words at her press conference.
We need to stop the raids. Should not be happening in our city. It is not warranted and it does the only thing it does is contribute to chaos. This was chaos that was started at Washington, d C. On Thursday. The city was peaceful on Friday. It was not because of the intervention of the federal government.
That also a lie from the mayor. We have pictures and proof of cars being set on fire before the National Guard was sent in. We have pictures and proof video of the police being attacked in LA. The Vice President JD Vance putting a tweet out saying this, Kevin Newsom says he didn't have a problem until Trump got involved. Both of these photos were taken before the President authorized the National Guard to go protect our border patrol in California.
The pictures show the massive smoke, cars on fire and also the vandalism of actual police cars by the rioteurs. JD Vance goes on to say this does this look like quote unquote no problem. Newsom and his students Cane Bass have encouraged the riots because their entire political movement exists for one purpose, to promote mass migration into our country. It is their reason for being cretic. Leadership has no
solution for the economy, for prosperity, or for security. They use their power when they're in the majority to import millions of illegal immigrants, and when they're in the opposition, they do everything possible to prevent deportations. Jeddie Vance went on to say, quote, under Newsom's leadership, Medicaid was extended
to all legal immigrants in twenty twenty four. This means that he elected to take health care from impoverished and disabled Californians and give it to illegal aliens, and now everything is President Trump's fault. Give me a break. If you want to know why illegal aliens flock to your state, stop accusing Donald Trump. Look in the mirror. If you want to know why border patrol fear for their lives
over enforcing the law, look in the mirror. It was your policies that encourage mass migration into California, Your policies that protected those migrants from common sense law enforcement, Your policies that offered massive welfare benefits to reward legal immigrants, Your policies that allowed those illegal immigrants and their sympathizers to assault our law enforcement. Your policies that allowed Los Angeles to turn into a war zone. You sure as
hell had a problem before President Trump came along. The problem is you. Now, the facts are a stubborn thing, and the fact is there was anarchy and looting and cards being set on fire, roadways being shut down, and police being attacked before Donald Trump sent in the National Guard. So make sure that you share this information with everyone you know, because the facts are a stubborn thing, especially on this issue.
