Weird clicky/squeaky brake sound

So for the past few months, I've had this really look brake sound whenever I push the brake pedal down. 2 different Ford dealers have told me this is completely normal but I've NEVER heard any other car let alone a stang make this kind of noise.

Any help would be seriously appreciated guys. I'll be taking it to an Indy shop soon because there's NO WAY it should sound like this. IDC what Ford says

You're just pumping the brakes in that video? That is definitely not normal but it doesn't sound like something with the actual rotors/calipers/pads. Wonder if it's something with the pedal?

Is it coming from inside the car our under the hood? It sounds like the pedal linkage.

It's coming from the actual brakes, nd yes that's me just pumping them. Definitely not pedal related

Almost makes me think a shim os broken or missing. That is a strange one for sure. And definitely not normal. Ford must train their techs to say "that's normal" for most everything. Just like my brother-in-law, a PT, says he went to school to learn how to say "ice it".
