You're listening to a 47 Morning Update special edition with Ben Ferguson.

Good Tuesday morning, Ben Ferguson with you. It's nice to have you on the 47 Morning Update as we have a special show for you this morning, celebrating the first 50 days with 50 wins under President Donald Trump's leadership. So many of you that listen to the show want to know the facts about what the president's actually accomplishing. This is one of those special shows that I hope you will share everywhere on social media, wherever you're listening to this, hit that little forward button, put it on X, put on Facebook, Instagram, and make sure other people know exactly what the president has done in his first 50 days in office. So with that being said, let's start with the big subject, and that is the border. President Trump secured the border in an unprecedented fashion. We now know that border crossings are now down well over 95% since President Trump took office. We also know that the president signed a very important piece of legislation coming in at number two, signing the Lake and Riley act into law, protecting Americans and making sure that what happened to Lake and Riley at the hands of an illegal immigrant hopefully will never happen again in the United States of America. Number three on the list, President Trump also is deporting illegal immigrant killers, rapists, and drug dealers in mass, a campaign promise that he said was going to happen. And it actually is number four on the list. President Trump is taking on the fentanyl crisis, another promise that he made and something he talked about in that joint session of Congress last week. Number five, President Trump ended the Biden administration's abuse of the illegal immigrant parole scheme, making sure that that loophole was closed instantly. And number six, when it comes to the border, President Trump resumed construction of the border wall, adding now to the more than 400 miles of border wall built during his first term in office. So with that, let's move to the economy and major wins for the President there. President Trump's tariffs come in at number seven. They are leveling the playing field for American workers. Yes, Democrats are attacking the President, saying fighting back, but the president has made it very clear he understands and knows that America has more leverage over China, Canada and Mexico than they have over us. And that is why he is staying the course to make sure that American workers are put first. Coming in. At number eight, President Trump has also secured billions of dollars in new U. S Based investments from major companies from all over the world, including many Fortune 500 companies in the United States of America. Not only has he secured billions of dollars in investments, but is also going to account for thousands and thousands of high paying jobs for American citizens. And at number nine, President Trump is bringing manufacturing back to America as well, offering major incentives and working deals with companies to bring back manufacturing jobs from everything from pipe fitting all the way to building automobiles back into America. With incentives, this will also employ a significant number of American citizens. At number 10, President Trump is also making life more affordable for everyday Americans by making sure that basic goods and services are competitive with other markets. At number 11, President Trump has also ended the war on cryptocurrency, which will also allow for many in America to flourish using cryptocurrency to their advantage with businesses and small businesses coming in. At number 12, President Trump instructed the Secretary of Treasury to stop production of the penny, which we now have found out actually costs 3.69 cents to make every penny that is only worth 1 cent. Yes, that is the definition of government abuse, waste and fraud. And that is exactly why the President said no more. Are we going to pay almost $0.04 to make something that's only worth $0.01? Only a government would be stupid enough to do that, and the President has stopped it. At number 13, President Trump has also suspended the enforcement of invasive, burdensome reporting requ Governments that have saddled so many small businesses with unnecessary red tape. And also that is costing them time, money, resources and having to employ usually extra people just to deal with the paperwork. The President said it's time to actually support small businesses so they can be successful instead of failing at record numbers under the Biden administration. So let's move on to President Trump's America first policies. Number 14 on the list of the top 50 accomplishments in the first 50 days. President Trump secured the arrest of an terrorists that yet again making it clear to terrorists around the world that we're not putting up with you and we're coming after you as well. At number 15, President Trump ended the weaponization of government against its citizens, making it very clear that the bureaucrats in the deep state are not going to use our federal government any longer to attack law abiding citizens and weaponizing them to get exactly what they want, instead putting the people first. And number 16, President Trump also decided to reverse the law fair against American citizens where so many people were afraid that the federal government was going to come after them if they didn't play by the liberal rule makers who were in charge. At number 17, President Trump designated English as the official language of the United States of America, something that many believe shouldn't be controversial at all, but absolutely has become controversial with the radical left and universities. Number 18, President Trump is ending China's chokehold over the Panama Canal as he seeks its rightful return to U.S. ownership. At number 19, President Trump rolled back the Biden era push for mandate paper straws. I can't actually believe we're talking about paper straws, but the fact that they had gotten so widespread with mandates of the government. Donald Trump said no more. So let's turn to Doge and exactly what has happened under Elon Musk and Donald Trump's leadership. At number 20, President Trump is ending waste, fraud and abuse in government. He has made it clear that your tax dollars should not be going to radical or extreme or stupid programs and saying it's time for us to cut massive government spending. At 21, President Trump is also reforming the federal bureaucracy to make sure that it's working for the American people instead of against the American people. At 22, President Trump cut bureaucratic red tape as well to make sure that the government would be more efficient and when there were changes that need to be made that they could be made very quickly. 23, President Trump banned funding for Unruh, a United nations agency that employed hundreds of Hamas and Jihad operatives that had all been exposed. In fact, the Biden Harris administration knew it was happening and they still kept sending your tax dollars. At number 24, President Trump restored transparency to government so that you can actually even see where your money is going, whether it be USAID or other government programs, especially when it comes to non governmental agen agencies that were funneling money to family and friends of countless government employees and elected officials. Let's now move to diplomacy and military coming in. At 25, President Trump rescued American citizens, held Hostage abroad in multiple countries. At 26, President Trump restored maximum pressure on Iran instead of sending them billions of dollars in cash was exactly what Joe Biden did. He also has made it clear that Iran cannot get a nuclear weapon and that we will work with Israel to make sure that never happens. President Trump is also pursuing world peace, as he's made it clear coming in at 27, saying, I'm a guy that wants to end wars, not start them. Number 28, President Trump signed an executive order to reinstate with back pay US Service members who were discharged under the military's Biden era COVID vaccine mandates, a major promise that will bring back amazing men and women to our military with back pay. A huge victory for so many that were persecuted when they refused to take the vaccine. At number 29, President Trump brought military recruitment to its highest number in decades, all because he was elected and there were so many men and women that wanted to serve under President Donald Trump hitting record recruitment numbers. Now let's move to energy, where we come in. At number 30 in the achievement list. President Trump unleashed American energy, saying drill, baby, drill, and making it clear that so many of the areas that Joe Biden said we couldn't explore and he shut down exploration or open back up. At 31, President Trump ended Biden's liquefied natural gas export ban that will bring countless jobs back to the marketplace for American citizens. At number 32, President Trump resented every one of the Biden administration's job killing pro China anti American energy regulations as well. And at number 33, President Trump terminated the Biden era electric vehicle mandate. For everyone out there that thinks Elon Musk, by the way, is some guy that you shouldn't trust, just know he actually worked with the president to terminate electric vehicle mandates. By the way, the Tesla is in fact an electric vehicle. Think about putting Americans first when that's what you do for a living. It's pretty impressive by Elon Musk. Now let's turn to another issue, the issue of women and families. At number 34, President Trump signed an executive order to protect children from chemical and surgical mutilation of children. Coming in. At 35, President Trump ended the unfair practice of forcing women to compete against men in Sports. And at 36, President Trump made it the official policy of the US government that there are only two sexes coming in. At 37, President Trump expanded access to in vitro fertilization, known as ivf, and is working with insurance to make sure that more of it is actually covered by insurance instead of being out of pocket extreme expenses that unfortunately doesn't allow for many families to walk down the road of IVF. Now let's move to education. Coming in at 38, President Trump ended the indoctrination of American students by getting rid of many of the radical programs that had nothing to do with reading, writing and arithmetic, including, including DEI. The president, coming in at 39, also said it's time to reform education and to have real standards and allow for parents to be more involved in their kids classrooms instead of being referred to as domestic terrorists, which is what the Biden administration did when parents start showing up at school board meetings. And at number 40, President Trump is ending anti Semitism as well on college campuses, pulling massive funding that we talked about on yesterday's program from so many universities, including Columbia University, that was receiving $400 million from your tax dollars. The question you should be asking yourself is why? And that's exactly the question that the president is asking and stopping much of that funding. Let's now move to law and order. Coming in at 41, President Trump raised standards for law enforcement, making it very clear that we are going to put law enforcement first, but also raising the standards so that we have the best and the brightest in law enforcement. At 42, President Trump is returning law and order to American citizen citizens and cities, even liberal cities, making sure they're applying the federal laws appropriately. And if they're not, he's going to war with those cities to make sure the citizens are actually going to be Safe. At number 43, President Trump cracked down on so called sanctuary cities as well that protect illegal immigrants, refused to work with ice, even going after many of the mayors and elected officials, another campaign promise. Now let's move to state and local issues. Coming in at 44, President Trump reformed the federal disaster response, making sure that there aren't winners or losers picked in this country when there's a natural disaster. Depending on where you live and if you are more of a conservative or liberal area, the president says it doesn't matter if you're in LA with the wildfires or in Tennessee or North Carolina or South Carolina dealing with a hurricane in Florida, the response from the federal government should always be perfect and give you everything you need and they should never deny you government aid because you're in a more conservative part of the country. Number 45, the President Trump administration also terminated approval for New York City's burdensome congestion pricing scheme that was going to force citizens to pay even more money to drive to work. He said that is something I'M not going to allow. And many liberals even in New York State said this was a great move. At number 46, President Trump forced Washington D.C. to clean up homeless encampments as he pursues policies to restore pride in America's capital city. It had gone well, totally woke and had been filled with countless encampments because of Joe Biden's administration. Number 47, let's move to the issue of wokeness in America and Donald Trump is trying to kill it. President Trump ended diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives within all parts of our federal government. And at 48, President Trump brought back hiring based on merit instead of the color of someone's skin or sexual orientation. Now let's move to number 49. It may be one of the most important ones for this country, especially if you were a mother. President Trump established the Make America Healthy Again Commission which redirects the national focus to promoting health rather than simply managing disease. He also has brought in, as you know, RFK Jr. To make sure that we are actually protecting our kids from basic things like dyes in our food. And finally coming in at number 50, the top 50 things that Donald Trump has done in the first 50 days. It deals with the issue of faith. President Trump established the White House official Office of Faith to protect Americans religious liberties. He made it clear he's not just protecting one religion are putting one ahead of another. He is saying it's time that we protect all face and he has an official office in the White House that is doing exactly that. So that is a big list of 50 wins in 50 days for the President of the United States of America. I hope you will take this episode specifically and share it everywhere you can on social media.
