• 0:20
  Speaker 5: Good Monday morning. It's Ben Ferguson. Nice to have you
• 0:23
  Speaker 5: with us, and here are the big stories we're covering today.
• 0:25
  Speaker 5: On the forty seven Morning Update. Columbia's President Petro buckled
• 0:30
  Speaker 5: under Donald Trump's trade war threat after the President refused
• 0:35
  Speaker 5: to allow planes to land in his country filled with
• 0:37
  Speaker 5: illegal immigrants from his nation. I'll have the latest on
• 0:41
  Speaker 5: how Donald Trump pulled this off in a moment. Also,
• 0:44
  Speaker 5: we now have the CIA saying that the government lied
• 0:48
  Speaker 5: to you about the lab leak theory coming out of
• 0:51
  Speaker 5: the Wuhan Institute of Virology, the new CIA director explaining
• 0:55
  Speaker 5: exactly what the evidence is. We'll play that for you
• 0:59
  Speaker 5: in a moment as well. And finally, Vice President jd
• 1:02
  Speaker 5: Vance calling out the Catholic Church for protecting illegal immigrants
• 1:07
  Speaker 5: and profiting off them as well. It's the forty seven
• 1:11
  Speaker 5: Morning Update and it starts right now.
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: Story number one.
• 1:14
  Speaker 5: Sunday was a very busy day for Donald Trump and
• 1:18
  Speaker 5: foreign policy, especially after Columbia's President Petro decided to stop
• 1:24
  Speaker 5: two military planes landing in his country filled with illegal
• 1:29
  Speaker 5: immigrants had been rounded up in America. The worst part
• 1:32
  Speaker 5: about the story is he had said early on he
• 1:35
  Speaker 5: would allow the planes to land and then decided to
• 1:39
  Speaker 5: block them. Well, President Donald Trump wasn't having any of
• 1:42
  Speaker 5: that and said, Okay, you want to go to war,
• 1:45
  Speaker 5: let's do it. And that is when Donald Trump responded
• 1:49
  Speaker 5: with some incredible threats to the country. In a response,
• 1:53
  Speaker 5: Trump swiftly enacted a wave of retaliatory measures, including ordering
• 1:58
  Speaker 5: a twenty five one percent tariff be imposed on all
• 2:02
  Speaker 5: Colombian goods coming to the US. Now, many in the
• 2:05
  Speaker 5: media that were acting like that wasn't a big deal,
• 2:08
  Speaker 5: except if you look at what Colombia exports to America,
• 2:12
  Speaker 5: it is a big deal, including Colombian coffee. These measures
• 2:16
  Speaker 5: are just the beginning. Trump said, we will not allow
• 2:19
  Speaker 5: the Colombian government to violate its legal obligations with regard
• 2:24
  Speaker 5: to the acceptance and return of the criminals they forced
• 2:29
  Speaker 5: into the United States. Trump went on to warn that
• 2:33
  Speaker 5: that tariff that starts at twenty five percent would then
• 2:37
  Speaker 5: jump to fifty percent at the end of week one.
• 2:41
  Speaker 5: Now before the South American leader cave, the Secretary of
• 2:44
  Speaker 5: State Marco Rubio also alleged that the President of Columbia
• 2:49
  Speaker 5: had canceled his authorization for the flights of Colombian nationals
• 2:53
  Speaker 5: when the planes were already in the air. It is
• 2:56
  Speaker 5: a responsibility of each nation to take back their citis
• 3:00
  Speaker 5: who are illegally present in the United States in a
• 3:03
  Speaker 5: serious and expeditious manner. The Colombian president had authorized the
• 3:08
  Speaker 5: flights and provided all needed authorizations, and then canceled his
• 3:12
  Speaker 5: authorization when the plans were in the air. Rubio went
• 3:15
  Speaker 5: on to say on x as demonstrated by today's actions,
• 3:20
  Speaker 5: we are unwavering in our commitment to end illegal immigration
• 3:24
  Speaker 5: and bolster America's border security. Rubio went on to state, well,
• 3:29
  Speaker 5: guess what happened. The President of Columbia instantly caved after
• 3:34
  Speaker 5: the list came out of exactly what President Trump was
• 3:37
  Speaker 5: going to do. It wasn't just the emergency tariffs that
• 3:41
  Speaker 5: were jumping from twenty five to fifty percent at the
• 3:43
  Speaker 5: end of one week, but also a travel ban and
• 3:46
  Speaker 5: an immediate visa revocations on the Colombian government officials, also
• 3:52
  Speaker 5: all of their allies and supporters. Donald Trump wasn't done
• 3:56
  Speaker 5: with that, saying visa sanctions will happen on all all
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: party members, family members, and supporters of the Colombian government.
• 4:05
  Speaker 5: And just to add on to that, the President said
• 4:08
  Speaker 5: he was going to have enhance customs and border protection
• 4:12
  Speaker 5: inspections of all Colombian nationals as well as cargo because
• 4:17
  Speaker 5: of the national security grounds. And finally, the President said
• 4:22
  Speaker 5: the IEPA treasury, banking and financial sanctions will be fully imposed.
• 4:29
  Speaker 5: These measures are just the beginning, the President stated, and
• 4:32
  Speaker 5: we will not allow the Colombian government to violate its
• 4:35
  Speaker 5: legal obligations with regard to the acceptance and the return
• 4:39
  Speaker 5: of criminals that they forced into the US. Well, guess
• 4:43
  Speaker 5: what the Colombian president did. Not only did he say okay,
• 4:47
  Speaker 5: let's all get along, but he even said he would
• 4:51
  Speaker 5: send his own presidential jet to America to pick up
• 4:56
  Speaker 5: the one hundred and sixty plus the legal immigrants that
• 4:59
  Speaker 5: we were originally flying back to Columbia. If you want
• 5:02
  Speaker 5: to know what make America Great Again looks like well,
• 5:05
  Speaker 5: Donald Trump, he's bringing it.
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: Week one now, story number two.
• 5:10
  Speaker 5: So remember the lie that we were told for years
• 5:13
  Speaker 5: from the Biden Harris administration that there was no such
• 5:16
  Speaker 5: thing as a lab leak when it came to the
• 5:18
  Speaker 5: origins of COVID nineteen. You may also remember the doctor
• 5:22
  Speaker 5: Fauci lied to the American people and even needed a
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: preemptive pardon because of what he said the American people
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: about the Institute of Virology in Wuhan and the lab
• 5:32
  Speaker 5: leak theory. He also fund a gain of function research
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: and lied about that. Well, now because all of those
• 5:40
  Speaker 5: individuals are out of the government, we're finding out exactly
• 5:44
  Speaker 5: what really happened and the CIA. It is now being
• 5:48
  Speaker 5: reported by Politico, the Wall Street Journal, the BBC, Fox News,
• 5:52
  Speaker 5: even CNN and the Associated Press are now running headlines
• 5:56
  Speaker 5: that say the CIA believes COVID most likely origin from
• 6:00
  Speaker 5: a lab. Yes. Another headline, the CIA releases new analysis
• 6:05
  Speaker 5: on COVID origins, favoring lab leak theory. Politico's headlines AA
• 6:09
  Speaker 5: now says COVID nineteen is more likely to have originated
• 6:12
  Speaker 5: from a lab leak. These headlines would have been banned
• 6:16
  Speaker 5: from social media and had your account silenced or even
• 6:20
  Speaker 5: shut down if you share them during COVID nineteen in
• 6:24
  Speaker 5: the pandemic. But now we're hearing a lot more about
• 6:27
  Speaker 5: the facts. John Radcliffe is now the CIA director after
• 6:32
  Speaker 5: being confirmed this past week, and here is what he
• 6:35
  Speaker 5: had to say about the American people. It's time that
• 6:37
  Speaker 5: they are able to trust their government again.
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: Part of what we have to do is we have
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: to restore Americans trust in our own institutions like the
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: intelligence community and law enforcement, and that includes the CIA.
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: And you know, one of the things that the President stress,
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: you know, the purpose of the CIA is to protect Americans,
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: to keep us safe from foreign threats and foreign adversaries.
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: But we also need to be truthful with Americans. And
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: he has stressed to me and others that these aren't
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: mutually exclusive missions. We can do both. And so in
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: the case of the CIA, which is the best foreign
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: intelligence service in the world, after five years, to not
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: have a public assessment, to be honest with the American
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: people about where the likely source of a pandemic that
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: killed millions around the world, including a million Americans, and
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: really impacted all three hundred and forty five million Americans
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: in some way. People lost jobs, they lost houses, they
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: lost their health, they lost their businesses, all of that.
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: And so I had the opportunity on my first day
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: to make public an assessment that actually took place in
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: the Biden administration, so it can't be accused of being political,
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: and it does assess The CIA has assessed that the
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: most likely cause of this pandemic that has wrought so
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: much devastation around the world was because of a laborated
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: incident in Wuhan, and so we'll continue to investigate that
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: moving forward. But I think it was important for the
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: American people to see an institution like the CIA get
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: off the sidelines and be truthful about what our intelligence
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: shows at the same time of protecting us from adversaries
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: like China if they caused or contributed to this.
• 8:22
  Speaker 5: It's very clear from Ratcliffe's words there that the President
• 8:25
  Speaker 5: of United States of America, Donald Trump, is instructing the
• 8:28
  Speaker 5: people in his cabinet to be transparent with the American people,
• 8:33
  Speaker 5: to bring back faith to institutions like the CIA or
• 8:37
  Speaker 5: the FBI or the Department of Homeland Security. And I
• 8:40
  Speaker 5: have a feeling what we're going to witness in the
• 8:42
  Speaker 5: days and the weeks ahead is more people like Radcliffe
• 8:46
  Speaker 5: stepping up and saying this is what they were hiding
• 8:49
  Speaker 5: from you in the Biden and Harris administration. It is
• 8:53
  Speaker 5: clear this is an initiative of Donald Trump. So get
• 8:56
  Speaker 5: ready for more bombshells and also many moments that are
• 9:00
  Speaker 5: going to probably be like I knew I was right,
• 9:02
  Speaker 5: moments where we relied to by our government.
• 9:05
  Speaker 4: And lastly, story number three.
• 9:07
  Speaker 5: There's a very famous saying. It is a saying that
• 9:10
  Speaker 5: you've probably heard before. Follow the money. Well, nothing could
• 9:13
  Speaker 5: be truer when it comes to government and politics, and
• 9:17
  Speaker 5: many times when there is a crisis and money is
• 9:19
  Speaker 5: thrown at that crisis, there are always people on the
• 9:22
  Speaker 5: take that are more than happy to get rich. Well, jd.
• 9:27
  Speaker 5: Vance is now calling out the Catholic Church saying they
• 9:31
  Speaker 5: are doing more to help immigrants, illegal immigrants, specifically to
• 9:36
  Speaker 5: actually help their bottom line, not so much because they
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: believe in a policy. Well, Vice President Jady Vance ruffled
• 9:43
  Speaker 5: a lot of feathers when he got into it back
• 9:45
  Speaker 5: and forth over the idea now that the government is
• 9:48
  Speaker 5: going to raid churches to if there are legal immigrants
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: in attendance, there are some saying that is inhumane, and
• 9:57
  Speaker 5: the President of the United States of America is saying
• 9:59
  Speaker 5: there should be no that is off limits to violent
• 10:02
  Speaker 5: illegal immigrants, even if they seek refuge in a church.
• 10:07
  Speaker 5: Take a listen to what JD. Van t had to
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: say about the Catholic Church profiting off of quote taking
• 10:15
  Speaker 5: care of illegal immigrants in America.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: Of Catholic bishops this week condemned some of the executive
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: orders signed by President Trump, specifically those allowing immigration and
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: customs enforcement to enter churches and to enter schools. Do
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: you personally support the idea of conducting a raid or
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: enforcement action in a church service at a.
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: School, Well, let me let me address this.
• 10:38
  Speaker 6: Of course, if you have a person who is convicted
• 10:41
  Speaker 6: of a violent crime, whether they're an illegal immigrant or
• 10:44
  Speaker 6: a non illegal immigrant, you have to go and get
• 10:46
  Speaker 6: that person to protect the public safety. That's not unique
• 10:49
  Speaker 6: to immigration.
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: But let me just address this particular issue, Margaret, because.
• 10:53
  Speaker 6: As a practicing Catholic, I was actually heartbroken by that statement,
• 10:58
  Speaker 6: and I think that the US Conference of Catholics needs
• 11:00
  Speaker 6: to actually look in the mirror a little bit and
• 11:03
  Speaker 6: recognize that when they receive over one hundred million dollars
• 11:06
  Speaker 6: to help resettle illegal immigrants. Are they worried about humanitarian
• 11:11
  Speaker 6: concerns or are they actually worried about their bottom line.
• 11:14
  Speaker 6: We're going to enforce immigration law. We're going to protect
• 11:17
  Speaker 6: the American people. Donald Trump promised to do that, and
• 11:21
  Speaker 6: I believe the US Conference.
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: Of Catholic Bishops. If they're worried about.
• 11:24
  Speaker 6: The humanitarian costs of immigration enforcement, let them talk about
• 11:28
  Speaker 6: the children who have been sex trafficked because of the wide.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: Open border of Joe Biden. You person talk about going
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: people like Blake and Riley who are brutally murdered.
• 11:37
  Speaker 6: I support US doing law enforcement against violent criminals, whether
• 11:40
  Speaker 6: they're all legal immigrants or anybody else, in a way
• 11:43
  Speaker 6: that keeps US safe. Let me ask this question, Margaret,
• 11:46
  Speaker 6: let's separate the immigration issue.
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: If you had a violent murderer in a school, of course.
• 11:51
  Speaker 6: I want law enforcement to go and get that person out.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: Of course, the point of the question, you change the
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: regulation this week. That's the point of the.
• 11:58
  Speaker 6: Question exactly, the to go into church, going to school,
• 12:02
  Speaker 6: the empowered law enforcement to enforce the law everywhere to
• 12:06
  Speaker 6: protect Americans.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: In fact, a chilling effect arguably to people to not
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: send their pipes to school.
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: I desperately hope it has a chilling effect.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: You think the the US Conference of Catholics Bishops are
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: actively hiding criminals.
• 12:20
  Speaker 6: I think the US Conference of Catholic Bishops has frankly
• 12:23
  Speaker 6: not been a good partner in common sense immigration enforcement
• 12:26
  Speaker 6: that the American.
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: People voted for.
• 12:28
  Speaker 6: And I hope again as a devout Catholic, that they'll
• 12:31
  Speaker 6: do better.
• 12:32
  Speaker 5: As a devout Catholic, he hopes they'll do better. So
• 12:35
  Speaker 5: follow the money, what are we talking about. Early reports
• 12:38
  Speaker 5: have been coming out after Vance did that interview showing
• 12:42
  Speaker 5: millions and millions and millions and millions of dollars have
• 12:47
  Speaker 5: been flowing into the Catholic charities to make sure that
• 12:51
  Speaker 5: they take care of the illegal immigrants. Yes, the Catholic
• 12:55
  Speaker 5: Church is profiting off of this, There's no doubt about it.
• 12:59
  Speaker 5: And now you have the Vice President of the United
• 13:01
  Speaker 5: States of America calling them out for it.
• 13:04
