0:07
Speaker 1: This one year in a verse God, who.
0:09
Speaker 2: Is protecting me?

Speaker 5: Good Monday morning, so nice to have you with us
0:23
Speaker 5: on the forty seven Morning Update and hear the big
0:25
Speaker 5: stories we're covering today. First up, it has been one
0:29
Speaker 5: year since the assassination attempt on President Donald Trump and
0:32
Speaker 5: Butler Pennsylvania. The President set down to do an interview
0:35
Speaker 5: on that and many other issues, and oddly enough, he
0:38
Speaker 5: wasn't too worried about the assassination attempt. He's more worried
0:42
Speaker 5: about putting Americans first, and we'll have that for you
0:45
Speaker 5: in just a moment. Also, Democrats got to go to Alcatrez,
0:50
Speaker 5: you know, Alligator Alcatraz, and what do they do? They
0:53
Speaker 5: freaked out and they lied. Tom Homan set the record
0:56
Speaker 5: straight of what actually is happening at Alligator Alcatraz, and
0:59
Speaker 5: we have the details for you. But first I want
1:02
Speaker 5: to talk to you about starting my day. I do
1:04
Speaker 5: it every morning with an amazing cup of Crockett coffee.

1:14
Speaker 5: my first cup a few moments ago. I've got a

1:50
Speaker 5: one other thing I love. It is owned by great conservatives,

2:49
Speaker 4: Story number one.
2:50
Speaker 5: It has been one year since the assassination attempt on
2:54
Speaker 5: Donald Trump. Donald Trump looking back at that year, making
2:57
Speaker 5: it clear that he is doing this job now for
3:00
Speaker 5: the American people, and it's clear that he has a
3:03
Speaker 5: mission to do what he promised, which was to put
3:06
Speaker 5: Americans first. The president was asked about that one year
3:09
Speaker 5: since Butler Pennsylvania in an interview that he did with
3:13
Speaker 5: his daughter in law on Fox News Channel. And I
3:16
Speaker 5: want you to hear what the President had to say
3:18
Speaker 5: looking back over the last year.
3:20
Speaker 3: But they briefed me, and I'm satisfied with it. I'm
3:23
Speaker 3: satisfied with it. They should have had somebody in the building.
3:26
Speaker 3: That was a mistake. They should have had communications with
3:29
Speaker 3: the local police. They weren't tied in, and they should
3:31
Speaker 3: have been tied in. So there were mistakes made and
3:34
Speaker 3: that you know, shouldn't have happened. And that building was
3:36
Speaker 3: a prime building in terms of what they were trying
3:39
Speaker 3: to do. So but I was satisfied in terms of
3:43
Speaker 3: the bigger plot, the larger plot.
3:45
Speaker 1: I was satisfied.
3:46
Speaker 3: And you know, I have great confidence in these people.
3:50
Speaker 3: I know the people and they're very talented, very capable.
3:53
Speaker 3: That they had a bad day, and I think they'll
3:55
Speaker 3: admit that had a rough day. This is a very
3:58
Speaker 3: dangerous job being president, you know, I say, a race
4:01
Speaker 3: guard driver one percent of one percent, think of that die.
4:06
Speaker 1: It's not a lot a bull rider. I think that's
4:09
Speaker 1: pretty dangerous.
4:11
Speaker 3: It's like one tenth of one percent die, and with
4:14
Speaker 3: a president's like five percent.
4:16
Speaker 1: Why didn't you tell me this?
4:17
Speaker 3: I could have maybe made a different decision, but I
4:20
Speaker 3: wouldn't have made a different decision because we're doing so well.
4:23
Speaker 1: The country's back.
4:25
Speaker 5: The country's back. The President of the United States of
4:27
Speaker 5: America making it clear that he has a mission, a
4:30
Speaker 5: mission statement, and his mission is to protect Americans and
4:34
Speaker 5: put Americans first. He also had this to say about
4:38
Speaker 5: a what he wants for the future of this country.
4:40
Speaker 2: A lot of people look at what you've done, though,
4:42
Speaker 2: and they say, had you not had four years in between,
4:46
Speaker 2: maybe all this success would not be possible.
4:50
Speaker 1: Do you agree with that? Well, experience is very important
4:55
Speaker 1: in life.
4:56
Speaker 3: I think talent is more important than experience, But if
4:58
Speaker 3: you can have them both somehow, it's a very good thing.
5:01
Speaker 1: But experience is very important. I think it also helped.
5:04
Speaker 3: It was very bad for the country, but it also
5:07
Speaker 3: helped to have four years of horror. What went before
5:10
Speaker 3: me was horror, and by comparison, I think anything looks good,
5:15
Speaker 3: and I don't want it to mean what we've done,
5:17
Speaker 3: because we've done a lot of records, but what they've
5:20
Speaker 3: done to our country should never be forgiven. Allowing millions
5:25
Speaker 3: and millions of people to come into our country that
5:27
Speaker 3: shouldn't be here.
5:28
Speaker 1: It's such a big aspect of what.
5:29
Speaker 3: We're doing now with the borders, and it could have
5:32
Speaker 3: been so easy. When I gave over the country, the
5:34
Speaker 3: border was great. Now it's better than it was, but
5:38
Speaker 3: it was much worse than it was in twenty sixteen
5:40
Speaker 3: when I took it over.
5:41
Speaker 1: That was a border problem also.
5:42
Speaker 3: But I think when people see the horror show that
5:45
Speaker 3: we had for four years, an absolute horror show. They
5:49
Speaker 3: tried to kill it was almost like they tried to
5:51
Speaker 3: kill our country. And the beautiful thing is now we
5:54
Speaker 3: have the hottest country in the world the present.
5:57
Speaker 5: Making it clear, I have a lot to do. I
6:00
Speaker 5: have a legacy. I am working for the American people.
6:04
Speaker 5: I am doing things. For example, the Big Beautiful Bill,
6:08
Speaker 5: which is going to help Americans, and I made it
6:11
Speaker 5: a reality, another part of his commitment to the American people.
6:15
Speaker 1: It's unbelievable.
6:17
Speaker 3: It's the most incredible bill, one of the most incredible
6:19
Speaker 3: bills ever passed, and it's the biggest.
6:22
Speaker 1: It's the biggest bill.
6:23
Speaker 3: Of its kind ever passed, and we have to talk
6:26
Speaker 3: about it when you think about no tax on tips,
6:28
Speaker 3: no tax on Social Security, no tax on overtime, a
6:32
Speaker 3: big tax cut in addition to that, plus we're saving
6:35
Speaker 3: the tax cut.
6:35
Speaker 1: That we made years ago, which is big.
6:37
Speaker 3: It expired in another couple of months that would have expired,
6:41
Speaker 3: they would have had a sixty eight percent tax increase.
6:45
Speaker 1: And now they have a tax cut.
6:46
Speaker 3: And you have to explain that to people, because you
6:49
Speaker 3: know the public, they're driving a cab, they're working as
6:53
Speaker 3: a lawyer, accountant, or a teacher, or doing it any
6:56
Speaker 3: one of a million different things.
6:58
Speaker 1: They're not into it like we are.
7:00
Speaker 3: You have to explain it, so every chance you get,
7:02
Speaker 3: because what they do is they set a phony.
7:04
Speaker 1: You know, they're fake. The Democrats are fake.
7:06
Speaker 3: They're part of the fake news, and the fake news
7:09
Speaker 3: will take it and they'll go with it.
7:10
Speaker 1: It's unbelievable.
7:12
Speaker 5: I love this president how quickly he moves on from
7:16
Speaker 5: a question like, hey, year ago, they tried to kill you.
7:19
Speaker 5: He's making jokes. He is making jokes and going back
7:24
Speaker 5: to what he's trying to do put together an incredible
7:27
Speaker 5: administration with an incredible cabinet that is doing incredible things
7:31
Speaker 5: for the American people.
7:33
Speaker 3: We have really good people this time, and they get
7:36
Speaker 3: along with each other, they love each other, they love
7:39
Speaker 3: the country, and it's smoother.
7:42
Speaker 1: I think it's smoother.
7:43
Speaker 3: You know, we did a lot of people thought my
7:45
Speaker 3: first term was phenomenal.
7:47
Speaker 1: I did. I thought.
7:48
Speaker 3: You know, we got the largest tax cut in history,
7:51
Speaker 3: the biggest tax cut in history, the biggest regulation cuts
7:55
Speaker 3: in history by four times. Nobody even came close. We
7:58
Speaker 3: rebuilt our military. They gave some of it away to Afghanistan,
8:02
Speaker 3: and one of the most embarrassing moments ever. But you know,
8:05
Speaker 3: we we terminated ISIS was one gone and terminated. They
8:12
Speaker 3: started making a little bit of a comeback since Biden
8:14
Speaker 3: got in, as you know, but they were gone, and
8:17
Speaker 3: we'll take care of it. But now we're doing things
8:20
Speaker 3: that maybe are on even a different level.
8:23
Speaker 1: Now.
8:23
Speaker 3: It's been especially this last couple of weeks, has been
8:27
Speaker 3: pretty amazing.
8:28
Speaker 5: Protecting Americans, standing up for Americans, protecting us at the border,
8:33
Speaker 5: protecting us with taxes, protecting us from terrorists. That's what
8:37
Speaker 5: the president wants.
8:38
Speaker 4: You to remember about it now. Story number two.
8:40
Speaker 5: President Donald Trump made it very clear when he was
8:42
Speaker 5: running for president, if you vote for him, he's going
8:45
Speaker 5: to secure the southern border and also have the largest
8:47
Speaker 5: deportation this country has ever seen of illegal immigrants. The
8:51
Speaker 5: President holding true to that promise, regardless of how much
8:54
Speaker 5: the media tax him. Which brings us to the big
8:57
Speaker 5: story about Alligator Alcatraz. It is simply the Everglades Detention Center.
9:03
Speaker 5: It's located at the Dad Callier Airport in the Florida Everglades,
9:06
Speaker 5: and the facility has actually been nicknamed Alligator Alcatraz. And
9:11
Speaker 5: that's where the media lost their minds now. It began
9:14
Speaker 5: operations on July third. It's intended to hold up to
9:17
Speaker 5: five thousand immigration to dainees. As of today, lawmakers and
9:22
Speaker 5: the press have visited under tight restrictions. Democrat officials infuriated,
9:28
Speaker 5: describing it as quote vile, horrible, and citing overcrowded cages,
9:34
Speaker 5: lack of sanitation, extreme heat, worm infested food, flooding toilets,
9:40
Speaker 5: and restricted legal access. The reality that's all a lot
9:45
Speaker 5: the Trump administration. Republican officials have defended it, saying it
9:50
Speaker 5: meets standards and it serves a deterrent, and plans exist
9:54
Speaker 5: to replicate this model in other states, doubling down now.
9:59
Speaker 5: It's currently a flashpoint in the immigration debate, praise by
10:03
Speaker 5: many like myself who support the present saying this is
10:06
Speaker 5: effective in condemning illegal immigration, even as Democrats quote unquote
10:12
Speaker 5: call it inhumane. Well, the President of the United States
10:15
Speaker 5: of America making it clear, sending out Tom Holman to
10:19
Speaker 5: do TV to talk about immigration and also Alligator Alcatraz,
10:25
Speaker 5: and he set the record straight with Dana bash On
10:27
Speaker 5: see it in take a listen.
10:29
Speaker 2: I do want to turn to what is going on
10:33
Speaker 2: in Florida, and that is what the administration, what you
10:37
Speaker 2: call Alligator Alcatraz, was visited by Democratic members of Congress yesterday.
10:43
Speaker 2: They were given limited access. And this, of course is
10:48
Speaker 2: a new detention facility set up by Florida Governor Ron DeSantis.
10:52
Speaker 2: What these congress people described was sweltering heat, bug and infestations,
10:57
Speaker 2: meager meals. They say, they heard detail needs crying out
11:00
Speaker 2: for help. The wife of one man detained there said
11:03
Speaker 2: he's not been given access to a lawyer. He's been
11:06
Speaker 2: in detention for about two weeks. Is that acceptable to you?
11:10
Speaker 2: And is that what you're saying when you go, I
11:12
Speaker 2: have not been there.
11:13
Speaker 6: Yet, and I doubt a lot of that's factual. I mean,
11:16
Speaker 6: bottom line is, you know from the day one I've
11:19
Speaker 6: been doing this job since nineteen eighty four, detainees complain
11:23
Speaker 6: about the conditions of detention. And I said this many times.
11:26
Speaker 6: You can simply go to ICE dot GUB and look
11:30
Speaker 6: at the detention standards ICE has. They have the highest
11:32
Speaker 6: attention standards in the industry. But these same congressmen that
11:35
Speaker 6: complaining about alligator alcatracts, you didn't see him complaining about
11:39
Speaker 6: under Biden administration people being held in borbitual parking lot
11:42
Speaker 6: surrounded by a fence and the swacter heat. Not a word.
11:46
Speaker 6: You didn't hear a word about half a million children
11:48
Speaker 6: being trafficked in the country and them not being able
11:50
Speaker 6: to locate three hundred thousand. President Trump, this administration is
11:53
Speaker 6: finding thousands of those children. So you know, they have
11:57
Speaker 6: a lot of anger under President Trump and how we're
11:59
Speaker 6: doing business. And they ignored four years of open borders,
12:02
Speaker 6: historic migrant death, historic Americans dying from fatanhl, historic numbers
12:06
Speaker 6: and women chilling me a sex traffic, historic number of
12:10
Speaker 6: people on Jervis's coming across the border. Silence, silence because
12:14
Speaker 6: they're complicit. But they didn't take the administration on and
12:17
Speaker 6: ask them security border. You can't have strong national security
12:21
Speaker 6: in this country if we don't have border security. We
12:24
Speaker 6: got to know who's coming and what's coming to where's coming. Well,
12:26
Speaker 6: instead they kept silent, and they kept feeding the American people.
12:30
Speaker 6: We have a secure border, and we did.
12:31
Speaker 5: Not tom home and make it clear that Trump officials
12:35
Speaker 5: have given him a job. And reportedly they arrested thirty
12:38
Speaker 5: thousand undocumented migrants in June, the Trump administration putting out
12:43
Speaker 5: the new numbers, saying that this was a significant escalation
12:47
Speaker 5: in immigration enforcement. According to ICE data, now, the surge
12:52
Speaker 5: reflects a focus on detaining individuals, with over fourteen thousand
12:58
Speaker 5: convicted criminals nine eight hundred facing pending charges. Among those
13:03
Speaker 5: apprehended since January, only about eighteen thousands so far have
13:08
Speaker 5: actually been deported, highlighting a gap due to overcrowded attention
13:12
Speaker 5: facilities and pending asylum cases, yet again proving the point
13:16
Speaker 5: of just how many illegal immigrants were allowed into the country. Now,
13:20
Speaker 5: you may ask, what is the reason behind Alcatraz? Right,
13:24
Speaker 5: this alligator Alcatraz is the media keeps freaking out over.
13:29
Speaker 5: It's obviously meant to be a deterrent. Do not break
13:33
Speaker 5: in to the United States of America. If you do,
13:37
Speaker 5: we will come after you. Dana Bash also asking Homan
13:42
Speaker 5: about this and listen to his response.
13:44
Speaker 6: In communities and sanctuary cities.
13:46
Speaker 2: Well, you just said that there are called collateral arrests
13:51
Speaker 2: and that is sparking fear in communities where people are
13:57
Speaker 2: again scared to go out. Well, I guess my question
14:01
Speaker 2: is do you have compassion for those people who are
14:05
Speaker 2: seeing what's going on hearing you speak, seeing what's happening
14:09
Speaker 2: in their neighborhoods, shouldn't have any concern, but do just
14:14
Speaker 2: because of.
14:14
Speaker 6: The reality data. The bottom line is if you want
14:20
Speaker 6: less collabor arrest and let us in the jail, I
14:22
Speaker 6: mean we want to arrest a bad guy in the
14:24
Speaker 6: safety and security of the accounty jail, with sanctuary cities
14:26
Speaker 6: or releasing in the community, which means we've got to
14:28
Speaker 6: go to the community and find him. And when we
14:30
Speaker 6: find that bad person, many many times, whether it's at
14:33
Speaker 6: the work site or in the community, they're with other people.
14:35
Speaker 6: Other people in the United States illegally and We're going
14:38
Speaker 6: to let ICE enforce law, uphold the ohth they took.
14:41
Speaker 6: We're not going to be like the last administration who
14:43
Speaker 6: told Ice instructed Ice you can't arrest somebody for simply
14:47
Speaker 6: being here illegally. They got to be convicted of a
14:49
Speaker 6: serious offense. That's not the law, says we're enforcing the law.
14:53
Speaker 6: But look, immigration enforcement, I'm going to be clear. Immigration
14:55
Speaker 6: force has always been emotional. It's always been controversial. I've
14:58
Speaker 6: been doing this since nineteen eighty four. I get it,
15:01
Speaker 6: and I understand why people want to come to the
15:04
Speaker 6: greatest nation on Earth. I get it. Well, we can
15:07
Speaker 6: send the message to the whole world it's okay to
15:10
Speaker 6: enter this countryly. You don't worry about it. Emails of
15:12
Speaker 6: crime coming enter I legally, and when you get order
15:15
Speaker 6: removal from a judge, you don't have to leave. You
15:17
Speaker 6: can become effusitive and we'll never look for it. We
15:20
Speaker 6: got to send a message the whole world. There are
15:22
Speaker 6: consequences of breaking laws, and I think that's why one
15:25
Speaker 6: of the reason we have the most secure boarder in
15:27
Speaker 6: history of this nation today. It's just not because we've
15:29
Speaker 6: got boots on the ground on the border, not because
15:32
Speaker 6: we end the catcher leaves a lot of its consequences.
15:35
Speaker 6: You're watching what's happening, We're enforcing the immigration law, and
15:38
Speaker 6: I think that consequence has a lot to do with
15:40
Speaker 6: having the most secure border in the history of this nation.
15:43
Speaker 5: Having the most secure border in the history of this nation,
15:46
Speaker 5: exactly what President Donald Trump promised, and now we're seeing
15:49
Speaker 5: the numbers backing it up.
