You know, we have 59 countries that agreed to the deal.
00:00:08.540
We have a peace in the Middle East for the first time ever.
00:00:11.280
We made a deal with Hamas that, you know, they're going to be very good.
1.00
00:00:16.020
And if they're not, we're going to go and we're going to eradicate them if we have to.

You're listening to the 47 Morning Update with Ben Ferguson.
00:00:27.280
It's nice to have you with us on the 47 Morning Update.
00:00:31.160
And here are the two big stories that are coming out of the White House this morning.
00:00:34.480
First up, the Department of Homeland Security has announced an incredible feat,
00:00:39.720
arresting more than 480,000 illegal immigrants in the first nine months of President Trump being in office.
00:00:47.020
You're going to be shocked to know just how many of these 480,000 have criminal records.
00:00:53.340
Also, there was a massive win for the President when it comes to deploying the National Guard.
00:00:59.040
This time coming from the 9th U.S. Circuit decision, dealing with him doing exactly this in Portland.
00:01:07.040
And what does this mean for other cities around the country?
00:01:10.160
But first, did you see that gold just hit an all-time new high of over $4,000 an ounce?
00:01:17.400
And if you hear that and you're like, are you kidding me?
00:01:20.040
And you're thinking, gosh, I missed my opportunity.
00:01:23.040
Well, I don't know if you missed your opportunity.
00:01:25.340
But my friends at Kurt Elliott Precious Metals, they can answer that question for you.
00:01:30.400
You also may not be paying attention to the incredible gains with silver that are happening right now as well.
00:01:36.860
And that's why I trust the guidance of the team at Kurt Elliott.
00:01:40.520
In fact, I literally just got a 100-ounce bar of silver the other day.
00:01:46.360
And the reason why is because after I talked to the team at Kurt Elliott Precious Metals,
00:01:51.520
they let me understand exactly where I could have a big upside in investing in silver.
00:01:56.980
Now, the other part that I love about them is this.
00:02:02.380
There are a lot of gold companies that you'll hear about if you listen to talk radio or podcasts or watch TV.
00:02:07.920
But do they tell you how the pricing actually works?
00:02:15.060
Just 8% when you buy and zero commissions when you sell with no hidden fees ever.
00:02:22.300
That is the other reason why I recommend them to all of you.
00:02:26.140
They also don't sell you, quote, rare coins or precious coins that you pay insane markups on.
00:02:32.260
And then when you go to sell them, you find out they're really not worth that much.
00:02:44.940
That means you get more gold or silver for your money at fair value when it's time for you to sell.
00:02:51.840
So if you're ready to find out if gold and silver is right for you and your portfolio,
00:03:19.580
Kirk Elliott, Precious Metals Online at KEPM.com.
00:03:25.600
It's the 47 Morning Update, and it starts right now.
00:03:30.700
We've got a very big story coming out of the White House,
00:03:33.260
and it is a promise that President Donald Trump made to every American if he was elected president.
00:03:39.040
It was that he was going to do whatever he could to get rid of illegal immigrants in this country,
1.00
00:03:44.720
and he was also going to get rid of the illegal immigrants first that had committed the most heinous crimes.
0.74
00:03:50.400
He also promised he was going to make dangerous cities safe again.
00:03:57.680
But now we have some of the biggest data we've seen so far backing this up.
00:04:02.940
The Department of Homeland Security has arrested more than 480,000 illegal immigrants in the first nine months of the Trump administration.
00:04:15.620
480,000 illegal immigrants in a nine-month span.
00:04:21.760
This, while many illegal immigrants have been hanging out in sanctuary cities, being protected by the radical left.
00:04:28.040
Now, here's something else that you need to know.
00:04:30.000
70% of the 480,000 illegal immigrants that have been arrested had been convicted of crimes or had criminal charges against them pending.
00:04:42.100
Chrissy Noem made the announcement during a stop in Braden and Florida,
00:04:45.660
As they also put out a press release giving you some of the background saying,
00:05:20.680
Fugitives, illegal aliens convicted of crimes in other countries, gang members, and also suspected terrorists.
00:05:30.440
Noem highlighted nine of the worst of the worst illegal immigrants who have been arrested in South and Central Florida alone.
00:05:42.800
We are not going to let these individuals terrorize our streets anymore.
00:05:47.220
And we're not going to let them make victims out of families that live in this country.
00:05:52.420
I want you to hear directly from Chrissy Noem at the press conference.
00:05:57.980
I'll give you some examples of individuals that were brought to justice here in Sarasota and in this area.
00:06:02.980
The first one I'll talk about is a convicted murderer whose name is Eric Carlos Artelis Ramos, an illegal alien who was from Cuba.
00:06:11.000
He had a prior removal order in 2008, and now because of the work of this office, he is off the streets.
00:06:17.300
He was also previously convicted of kidnapping and carjacking.
00:06:21.780
We also have another individual, Oscar Alfredo Retina Marroquin, an illegal alien from El Salvador.
00:06:28.280
He was convicted of sexual assault against a child in 1995, and he was also arrested for DUI.
00:06:36.240
He has been deported twice before, in 1999 and in 2019.
00:06:41.420
Reentry after deportation, I'll remind all of you, is a felony.
00:06:50.520
He was arrested for driving drunk, and he's already been deported once before.
00:06:54.160
He reentered, which is a felony, and was issued a final order of removal in 2016.
00:07:00.420
He had previously been arrested for burglary as well, for possession of cocaine and larceny,
00:07:05.380
and has convictions for multiple DUIs and lewd acts against a minor.
00:07:10.740
And again, I'll talk about Lelis Rinaldo Benaro Zarin, who is an individual from Honduras,
00:07:17.760
who's been in this country illegally, and he has a conviction for domestic battery.
00:07:21.420
He'd been deported twice before, in 2011 and in 2017.
00:07:27.140
These individuals are just a handful of people that have been in this country creating victims
00:07:32.640
out of American citizens that now those families do no longer have to worry about.
00:07:37.500
Not only have they been brought into and incarcerated, but they're going to be brought to justice
00:07:44.760
Every single day, our law enforcement officers put their lives at risk to protect the American people.
00:07:49.900
Every single day, they get up and they go do their jobs to make sure that American families
00:07:54.240
can live the lives that they've dreamed of since they were young.
00:07:58.480
The left's anti-cop rhetoric has led to a thousand percent increase in violence against our law enforcement officers.
00:08:06.160
We have to stop the rhetoric that is allowing individuals the cover that they want
00:08:11.340
to perpetuate violence against those who enforce our laws.
00:08:14.760
Last month, we had an individual open fire at an ICE facility,
00:08:19.680
and we also saw that we saw victims from that attack that happened,
00:08:24.180
not just against ICE agents, but also about detainees that were there at that facility.
00:08:29.620
That individual, when he fired upon the building, created some victims.
00:08:35.540
Three individuals were hurt, and two died later on after that event.
00:08:40.580
The suspect had anti-ICE written on the ammunition and on his bullet casings,
00:08:46.720
proving that he had targeted against individuals that were working to keep our streets safe.
00:08:52.140
Criminals are now even placing bounties on our law enforcement officers.
00:08:56.520
This last month, the Department of Homeland Security arrested a criminal,
00:09:00.200
illegal alien, and a Latin Kings gang member who placed a bounty on our U.S. Border Patrol Chief, Greg Bovino.
00:09:08.140
Still, they keep pressing on, and we've seen as well individuals on TikTok and other apps
00:09:15.280
making threats against our law enforcement officers, putting bounties out on their head,
00:09:19.160
and we will bring all of those individuals to justice.
00:09:22.020
We will continue to bring murderers and rapists, those who perpetuate violence,
00:09:29.520
We will go after them, bring them to justice, and we will save lives.
00:09:33.440
The American people see this, and they see that President Trump is focused on making sure
00:09:37.820
that our streets are safe and that our families have opportunities to raise their children in safe communities.
00:09:43.520
In fact, recent polls have shown that 54% of Americans want illegals to be brought into justice,
00:09:51.460
and they want to deport those who are in this country illegally.
00:09:54.600
But 78% of Americans want these criminal, illegal aliens brought to justice.
1.00
00:10:00.720
That's because the American people understand the benefits of having law and order again.
00:10:08.300
This is a win for every man and woman in this country,
00:10:11.340
especially men and women that have been victims of countless crimes by illegal immigrants.
0.99
00:10:18.340
The Ninth Circuit saying that President Trump can send the National Guard to Portland
00:10:26.680
And if you think that the left is going to sit down and just say,
00:10:30.720
okay, fine, the President's going to be able to be the President,
00:10:34.160
and he has the authority to do this, and he was elected to do it, you're wrong.
00:10:38.060
And MSNBC having a total meltdown as Lisa Rubin had to read the Ninth Circuit decision
0.99
00:10:43.860
authorizing Trump to deploy the National Guard in Portland.
00:10:50.700
Yeah, and I want to just correct one thing and then explain why functionally it is the same.
00:10:57.360
and that's why it reached the Ninth Circuit as soon as it did,
00:11:00.200
because this is an emergency motion to essentially pause her order.
00:11:03.920
But as a functional matter, you are absolutely correct.
00:11:06.960
It has the function of overturning her order and thereby allowing the President
00:11:12.120
to send the National Guard back onto the streets of Portland.
00:11:16.200
And Katie, I want to read, if I can, just from a little bit of the beginning of this 93-page opinion.
00:11:21.360
It says, after considering the record, and by the record they mean all the factual evidence,
00:11:25.540
at this preliminary stage, we conclude that it is likely that the President
00:11:29.400
lawfully exercised his statutory authority under 10 U.S.C. Section 12406.
00:11:36.100
That's the statute we've been referring to as Title 10 when we have conversations
00:11:39.920
about the National Guard deployments, which authorizes the federalization of the National Guard
00:11:43.920
when the President is unable with the regular forces to execute the laws of the United States.
00:11:50.880
The evidence the President relied on reflects, quote,
00:11:53.700
a colorable assessment of the facts and law within a range of honest judgment.
00:11:59.180
We thus conclude that defendants are likely to succeed on the merits of their appeal.
00:12:04.440
Basically saying that when and if a court considers all of the record in this matter is tried
00:12:10.240
and it gets back to an appellate court through an ordinary process where they have full briefing
00:12:14.960
and full evidence that they still think Donald Trump is likely to prevail there
00:12:19.660
because he has the discretion to determine as the President within a range of honest judgment
00:12:28.200
This is what you and I were talking about last week.
00:12:31.580
The left realizes now they're running out of ways to stop President Trump from doing his job,
00:12:36.800
a job that he was elected by the American people to do.
00:12:40.140
And they're going to do everything they can to continue to try to stop him.
00:12:44.320
But as we witness what is happening now in Portland
00:12:46.700
and the total number of arrests nationwide in the last nine months
00:12:50.880
and law and order that is also being restored to incredibly violent cities
00:12:56.880
like Portland, Washington, D.C., Memphis, Tennessee, and many more to come, including Chicago,
00:13:03.800
what you're witnessing is a President that is doing exactly what he promised he was going to do,
00:13:08.400
Keep all Americans safe, no matter where you live.
