Government Shutdown & Air Travel Disruption The shutdown is blamed for causing flight cancellations, long lines, and increased safety risks in air travel. Air traffic controllers are described as overworked and stressed, leading to more ground incursions and pilot complaints. The Transportation Secretary (Sean Duffy) discusses a phased reduction in flights (starting with 4%, then additional 2% increments) to reduce pressure and risk in the system. Partisan Blame The narrative strongly criticizes Democrats, accusing them of: Deliberately prolonging the shutdown. Rejecting a Republican bill to pay essential workers. Using the shutdown as a political weapon to hurt the public and blame Donald Trump. Republicans are portrayed as trying to resolve the crisis and protect public safety. Filibuster Debate Senator Tommy Tuberville supports eliminating the filibuster to push legislation through, arguing that Democrats are emboldened by recent election wins. Senator John Fetterman, a Democrat, is quoted as supporting filibuster reform but also criticizing his own party for prioritizing politics over national interest.

🗳️ U.S. Election Analysis The speakers describe the recent election as a “disaster” for conservatives, with high turnout among left-wing voters, particularly young women. Zohran Mamdani, referred to repeatedly as “Comrade Mandani,” is portrayed as a symbol of far-left politics, with accusations of communism and ties to wealthy donors like Alex Soros. Detailed demographic breakdowns are given for voter support in New York, New Jersey, and Virginia, highlighting gender gaps and educational differences. Young women (ages 18–29) overwhelmingly supported Democratic candidates. Voters with advanced or bachelor’s degrees leaned toward Mamdani, while those with less education favored Cuomo. Newer residents of NYC (less than 5 years) were more likely to vote for Mamdani than native New Yorkers. 📚 Book Promotion & Personal Stories Senator John Kennedy promotes his book “How to Test Negative for Stupid and Why Washington Never Will.” He shares personal anecdotes about his upbringing, legal career, and entry into politics. The tone is humorous and self-deprecating, with jokes about Washington, Chuck Schumer, and political bumper stickers. 🇮🇱 Trip to Israel & War Commentary Ben recounts a visit to Israel, including meetings with victims of Hezbollah rocket attacks and families of children killed while playing soccer. Descriptions of psychological warfare, hostage situations, and military operations (like the “pager attack” targeting Hezbollah leaders) are included. The trip is framed as both a spiritual pilgrimage and a political mission, with references to Christian faith and biblical sites.   Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

1. Government Shutdown and FAA Flight Cancellations Cruz and Ferguson argue that Democrats are intentionally prolonging the shutdown for political gain, particularly to hurt Donald Trump. Essential federal workers like TSA agents and air traffic controllers are working without pay, leading to staffing shortages and safety concerns. The FAA has announced a mandatory 10% reduction in air traffic at the 40 largest U.S. airports due to understaffing. This could result in up to 5,000 flight cancellations per day, affecting potentially 500,000 passengers daily. Cruz says Democrats blocked a bill to pay essential workers during the shutdown, including air traffic controllers. 2. Analysis of Election Results The podcast dives into the election of Zohran Mamdani, a self-described socialist/communist, in New York City. Cruz and Ferguson portray Mamdani as emblematic of the radical left’s growing influence in the Democratic Party. They analyze exit poll data and voter demographics, highlighting: Young women (18–29) were the most supportive group, with 81% voting for Mamdani. Educational attainment correlated with support: those with bachelor’s or advanced degrees leaned heavily toward Mamdani. Income brackets between $30,000 and $300,000 favored Mamdani, while the very poor ($300k) leaned toward Cuomo. Religious affiliation showed that Protestants, Catholics, and Jews leaned toward Cuomo, while Muslims and non-religious voters favored Mamdani. LGBTQ+ voters supported Mamdani by 81%, despite the podcast hosts expressing disbelief due to Mamdani’s alleged Islamist sympathies. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

State-by-State Breakdown Virginia Described as a “perfect storm” for Democrats due to: Heavy outside funding (3-to-1 spending advantage). Government shutdown affecting many federal workers in the state. Lack of galvanizing issues like those that helped Glenn Youngkin win previously (e.g., Loudoun County school scandal). Mentions a Democratic candidate who allegedly called for violence against Republicans, yet still won. New Jersey A liberal stronghold where Democrats won decisively. The government shutdown is again cited as a factor. The race wasn’t as close as expected, with Mikie Sherrill defeating Jack Ciattarelli. New York City The election of Zohran Mamdani is described as a “communist win.” Criticized for radical views, including abolishing police and hostility toward Israeli leadership. Even with full consolidation of Republican votes, Mamdani would still have won. California Proposition 50 passed, redrawing districts to add five Democratic seats. Criticized as extreme gerrymandering, effectively silencing Republican representation. Framed as a message to Republicans to “leave the state.” Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

🗳️ U.S. Election Analysis The hosts express deep concern and disappointment over recent election results in Virginia, New Jersey, and New York City, which they characterize as a “disaster” for Republicans and conservatives. Key Points: Virginia: Republicans suffered major losses, including the defeat of Winsome Sears and Jason Miyares. The hosts cite massive Democrat spending and controversial candidates like J. Jones, who allegedly made violent remarks. New Jersey: Jack Ciattarelli lost to Mikie Sherrill by a wide margin, surprising the hosts who expected a stronger Republican showing. New York City: The election of Zohran Mamdani (referred to as a “communist jihadist” by Cruz) is described as alarming. Cruz accuses Mamdani of supporting Hamas and promoting radical ideologies. California Proposition 50: Passed to redistrict and create five new Democrat seats, which Cruz claims is a power grab and anti-democratic. The tone is highly critical of Democratic strategies, voter behavior, and what the hosts see as a growing radicalism within the party. 🇮🇱 Ben Ferguson’s Visit to Israel Ben Ferguson shares emotional and spiritual experiences from his first trip to Israel, including: Highlights: Spiritual Pilgrimage: Visits to the Sea of Galilee, the Whaling Wall, and the tomb believed to be where Jesus was buried and resurrected.

1. Hostage Remains and Psychological Warfare The podcast opens with a news story from the Jerusalem Post about Hamas returning partial remains to Israel. These remains were not from known hostages, which the speaker describes as a form of psychological torture against Israeli families. The Red Cross acted as an intermediary in the handover, but Hamas did not specify whose remains were being returned. 2. Personal Reflections and Pilgrimage Ben then shares that this trip to Israel is a spiritual journey, visiting sites related to Jesus and expressing feelings of safety and peace in Jerusalem. Encourages others to visit Israel, stating it feels safe despite the conflict. 3. Rise of Antisemitism in the U.S. A major theme is the alleged rise of antisemitism among American conservatives. Specific figures mentioned include Candace Owens, Tucker Carlson, and Nick Fuentes, accused of downplaying Israel’s importance as a U.S. ally. The speaker references Senator Ted Cruz, who warned of a “growing cancer” of antisemitism on the political right and urged Christian leaders to confront it. 4. Media Criticism Ben criticizes mainstream media for allegedly portraying Israel as the aggressor and failing to tell the stories of Israeli victims and hostages. 5.

🧊 Arctic Frost Probe & Jack Smith Allegations: Abuse of Power Allegations: Former Congressman Devin Nunes and others accuse Jack Smith of issuing overly broad and secret subpoenas targeting Trump-linked individuals and entities, including Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG), even before the company existed. Scope of Surveillance: The subpoenas reportedly covered over 430 individuals and entities, including bank records, phone data, and metadata, raising concerns about a politically motivated “fishing expedition.” Whistleblower Revelations: Much of the information came from whistleblowers and leaked documents, not official DOJ disclosures. Congressional Reaction: Lawmakers like Jim Jordan and Donald Trump express outrage, calling for investigations, depositions, and accountability. Jordan claims two of Smith’s deputies invoked the Fifth Amendment over 70 times during questioning. Transparency Issues: Redacted documents and hidden sources are criticized for obstructing oversight and accountability. Jordan and others demand full disclosure and identification of agents and sources involved. Historical Parallels: The probe is compared to past scandals like the Steele dossier and surveillance of Trump’s 2016 campaign, suggesting a pattern of politicized investigations. Political Weaponization Claims: The podcast paints a picture of the DOJ and FBI being used to target political opponents, particularly conservatives and Trump allies. The Arctic Frost investigation is described as a continuation of alleged partisan tactics dating back to 2016. Legal & Ethical Concerns: The breadth of the subpoenas — including metadata, IP addresses, and financial records — raises serious privacy and constitutional questions. The lack of indictments despite extensive surveillance suggests the investigation may have lacked sufficient legal basis. Calls for Accountability: Trump and GOP lawmakers are pushing for consequences, including potential impeachment of judges and depositions of investigators. The emphasis on whistleblowers and transparency reflects a broader effort to reform federal investigative practices. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

1. Kennedy’s Humor and Persona (GRAB SEN KENNEDY'S NEW BOOK HERE!) Kennedy is a "Southern trial lawyer with a sharp wit", often underestimated due to his accent and folksy demeanor. He’s known for devastating cross-examinations of judicial nominees, both Democrat and Republican. His humor is often biting and irreverent, with jokes about colleagues like Chuck Schumer, Mitch McConnell, and even Ted Cruz. 2. Behind-the-Scenes Senate Culture Kennedy compares the Senate to junior high school, full of cliques, egos, and petty drama. He shares stories of interactions with nominees who failed basic constitutional knowledge. The book aims to demystify the Senate and show how disconnected Washington can be from everyday Americans. 3. Critique of Washington Kennedy argues that Washington lacks common sense, and that change is only possible by removing entrenched interests (“pigs out of the creek”). He emphasizes the importance of storytelling in politics, using humor to make serious points. 4. Praise and Promotion Cruz and Ferguson praise Kennedy’s storytelling and comedic timing. The book is a very giftable item, especially for those with conservative leanings or frustrations with Washington.

1. Criticism of Gavin Newsom The hosts mock California Governor Gavin Newsom for allegedly misrepresenting his upbringing as impoverished. They highlight his privileged background, connections to the Getty family, and early business ventures. Newsom is portrayed as part of a broader trend of wealthy leftists promoting socialism while living in luxury. 2. Democratic Party and Radicalism The episode argues that the Democratic Party has shifted radically left, embracing socialism and Marxism. Figures like Comrade Mamdani are cited as examples of extreme ideology within the party. The hosts lament the lack of moderate Democrats willing to challenge the radical wing, referencing Bill Maher as a rare voice of reason. 3. Bill Maher’s Commentary Maher is quoted warning Democrats about the dangers of aligning with far-left candidates like Mamdani. He calls for a “Sister Souljah moment,” referencing Bill Clinton’s strategic distancing from radical elements during his campaign. 4. Human Rights in Nigeria Senator Cruz discusses Christian persecution in Nigeria, citing over 50,000 murders since 2009. He criticizes the Nigerian government for corruption and complicity in violence. Proposes sanctions and leveraging U.S. aid to pressure Nigeria into protecting human rights. 5. Recognition of Somaliland The guest, born in Somalia, advocates for U.S. recognition of Somaliland as an independent nation. Somaliland is praised for its democratic governance, stability, and alignment with U.S. values. The argument is framed as a strategic move to counter instability in the Horn of Africa. 6. Bill Gates and Climate Change The hosts poke fun at Bill Gates for allegedly reversing his stance on climate change alarmism. Gates is quoted saying the “doomsday view” is wrong and that other global issues deserve more attention.

🔍 1. Black Lives Matter (BLM) Investigation: The Department of Justice (DOJ) is reportedly investigating the Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation and other affiliated organizations for potential fraud. The investigation centers on whether BLM leaders misused tens of millions of dollars donated during the 2020 racial justice protests following the death of George Floyd. Allegations include the purchase of a $6 million Los Angeles property using donated funds. BLM leaders deny wrongdoing and claim they are not targets of any federal criminal investigation. The probe reportedly began under the Biden administration but is receiving renewed attention under Donald Trump’s presidency, aligning with his campaign promise of “accountability.” The investigation is being run out of the Central District of California, though the top prosecutor there was recently disqualified from several cases. 🔍 2. James Comey Indictment and Motion to Dismiss: Former FBI Director James Comey is seeking to have charges of lying to Congress dismissed. His legal team argues that Senator Ted Cruz’s questions during a 2020 Senate hearing were too long and confusing, making Comey’s answers “literally true” despite being misleading. The charges stem from Comey’s denial of authorizing leaks to the media, which prosecutors claim is false. The defense claims the questions were ambiguous and that Comey’s statements were not intentionally deceptive. The case involves references to Andrew McCabe, Daniel Richman, and Hillary Clinton, with Richman allegedly being the person Comey authorized to leak information. The commentary mocks Comey’s defense, suggesting it portrays him as either dishonest or incompetent. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

1. Allegations of Government Surveillance ("Arctic Frost") Senator Cruz claims the Biden administration, via Special Counsel Jack Smith and Judge James Boasberg, conducted surveillance on nine Republican Senators (20% of the GOP in the Senate). The operation allegedly involved 197 subpoenas targeting over 430 Republican individuals and entities, including Turning Point USA and the Republican Attorneys General Association. Cruz asserts that his own phone records were subpoenaed, but AT&T refused to comply, citing constitutional protections. He compares the operation to Watergate, calling it “Joe Biden’s Watergate,” and accuses Judge Boasberg of partisan abuse of power, calling for his impeachment. 2. Government Shutdown The podcast talks about the ongoing government shutdown as the “Schumer shutdown”, blaming Democrats for refusing to fund essential services. Cruz and Ferguson argue that Democrats are intentionally prolonging the shutdown to hurt Americans and blame Republicans, especially Donald Trump. They claim Democrats are withholding food stamps, military pay, and other services to create public pressure. Cruz emphasizes that Republicans have voted multiple times to reopen the government, but Democrats have blocked it. 3. Bill Gates’ Shift on Climate Change The hosts discuss a reported shift in Bill Gates’ stance on climate change, quoting him as saying the “doomsday view of climate change is wrong.” Gates allegedly suggests that while climate change is serious, it is not the most pressing global issue compared to poverty and disease. Cruz uses this to criticize climate alarmism and the policies of the Democratic Party, arguing that radical climate policies have harmed the environment and economy.

🔍 Arctic Frost Investigation Senator Chuck Grassley revealed that the FBI and DOJ, under the Biden administration, issued 197 subpoenas targeting 430 Republican individuals and entities. The subpoenas were part of a broader investigation led by Special Counsel Jack Smith, allegedly aimed at conservative groups and figures. Grassley claims this was a weaponized political operation, not a legitimate legal inquiry. 🧑‍💼 Targets and Scope Subpoenas were issued to 34 individuals and 163 businesses, including financial institutions and tech companies like Apple and AT&T. Targets included prominent conservative organizations such as Turning Point USA, Republican Attorney General’s Association, and even media outlets like Fox News, Newsmax, and CBS. Sitting members of Congress, including Senator Ted Cruz, were allegedly surveilled, with subpoenas seeking phone records and communications. 🧑‍⚖️ Judicial Allegations Senator Cruz accused Judge James E. Boasberg of signing secretive orders that prevented companies like AT&T from notifying senators about the subpoenas. Cruz called for Boasberg’s impeachment, claiming the judge abused his power and violated constitutional protections like the Speech and Debate Clause. 📢 Political Reaction Senator Ron Johnson joined Grassley in condemning the investigation, calling it a “Biden administration enemies list”.

1. Ninth Circuit Court Ruling on National Guard Deployment in Portland The podcast discusses a legal victory for former President Donald Trump, where the Ninth Circuit Court allowed him to deploy the National Guard to Portland. It criticizes left-leaning media, particularly MSNBC, for their reaction to the ruling. The court's decision is framed as a validation of Trump's authority under 10 U.S.C. § 12406, which allows the President to federalize the National Guard when necessary to enforce U.S. laws. The commentary emphasizes that this ruling supports Trump's efforts to restore law and order in cities like Portland, Washington D.C., Memphis, and Chicago. 2. Senator Chuck Grassley and the “Arctic Frost” Investigation The second half of the podcast focuses on revelations by Senator Chuck Grassley regarding an FBI and DOJ investigation codenamed “Arctic Frost.” This investigation, launched in April 2022, allegedly targeted Republican lawmakers and conservative organizations under the pretext of probing efforts to overturn the 2020 election. Grassley claims that high-ranking officials—including then-Attorney General Merrick Garland, Deputy AG Lisa Monaco, and FBI Director Christopher Wray—personally approved the investigation. The document portrays the investigation as a politically motivated effort to surveil and suppress Trump allies and conservative groups, comparing it to a scandal “worse than Watergate.” It also mentions the disbanding of the FBI’s CR-15 squad, which was allegedly used to target conservatives under the guise of investigating public corruption.

1. Military Escalation The USS Gerald R. Ford and its strike group (including five destroyers and nine aircraft squadrons) are being deployed to the U.S. Southern Command region. The deployment is described as a response to intensified drug trafficking, particularly involving fentanyl and cocaine. The Pentagon claims the goal is to “detect, monitor, and disrupt illicit actors” threatening U.S. safety and prosperity. 2. Narco-Terrorism Framing Congressman McCormick, a veteran, defends the strikes as intelligence-based, targeting confirmed threats. The document emphasizes the lethality of fentanyl and its impact on American communities, especially inner cities. The Trump administration has designated drug cartels as unlawful combatants, invoking legal frameworks similar to those used after 9/11. 3. Venezuela Focus Several boats targeted by U.S. strikes are said to originate from Venezuela, and the Tren de Aragua gang is specifically named. Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro is portrayed as a potential target, with speculation about regime change. Maduro responds by mobilizing defensive exercises along Venezuela’s coastline, accusing the U.S. of preparing for an invasion. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

1. Radicalization of the Democratic Party The hosts argue that the Democratic Party has moved from moderate liberalism (e.g., Bill Clinton) to embracing far-left ideologies. They claim that figures like Mamdani, AOC, and Bernie Sanders represent a dangerous shift toward communism and anti-American sentiment. 2. Criticism of Zohran Mamdani Cruz and Ferguson scrutinize Mamdani’s background, including his father’s academic statements and Mamdani’s own comments post-9/11. They interpret Mamdani’s remarks as lacking patriotism and empathy for 9/11 victims. They highlight Mamdani’s association with controversial figures, including Imam Siraj Wahaj, whom they label as a jihadist. 3. Media and Political Hypocrisy The podcast mocks media outrage over President Trump building a ballroom at the White House while allegedly ignoring more serious issues like Mamdani’s political rise. They accuse Democrats of failing to police their own party and enabling extremism. 4. Gavin Newsom and Elite Hypocrisy Newsom is portrayed as a privileged elitist pretending to be a man of the people. His political persona is compared to Mamdani’s, with both accused of promoting Marxist policies under a polished public image. 5. Bill Maher’s Critique Bill Maher is cited as a liberal voice warning Democrats about the dangers of embracing far-left candidates like Mamdani. His comments are used to support the podcast’s argument that even mainstream liberals are alarmed by the party’s direction.

1. Christian Persecution in Nigeria Senator Cruz highlights what he describes as a massive and underreported crisis involving the persecution of Christians in Nigeria. Key points include: Over 50,000 Christians killed since 2009. 18,000 churches and 2,000 schools burned, allegedly by extremist groups like Boko Haram and ISIS in West Africa. Accusations that some Nigerian government officials are complicit or negligent in addressing the violence. Cruz has introduced legislation to designate Nigeria as a “Country of Particular Concern” and impose sanctions on individual officials involved in or ignoring the persecution. He criticizes the mainstream media for failing to cover the issue adequately. Public figures like Bill Maher and Van Jones are cited as supporting the claim that this is a planned genocide and that media silence is a moral failure. 2. Christian Persecution in China This section shifts to a similar story: The Chinese Communist Party’s crackdown on Christianity, particularly targeting Pastor Jin Mingri and the Zion Church. Cruz introduced a bipartisan resolution with Senator Chris Coons condemning China’s actions and urging the release of imprisoned pastors. He emphasizes the need for economic and diplomatic pressure, especially with President Trump’s upcoming meeting with President Xi Jinping. The resolution calls for respect for religious freedom and highlights China’s long-standing designation as a “Country of Particular Concern” by the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom. 3. DOJ Surveillance of Republican Senators Cruz discusses revelations that: The Biden DOJ and Special Counsel Jack Smith subpoenaed phone records of nine Republican senators and one House member in connection with the January 6 investigation. Cruz’s phone records were requested from AT&T, but the company refused to comply, citing constitutional protections under the Speech and Debate Clause. He frames this as political persecution and a dangerous abuse of power, likening it to Watergate. He calls for Congressional hearings and transparency to prevent future surveillance of elected officials.

🧩 1. Political Weaponization of Federal Agencies (Operation Arctic Frost): Operation Arctic Frost was a DOJ/FBI investigation launched in April 2022, described as a “Sensitive Investigative Matter.” It allegedly targeted Donald Trump, Republican senators, and GOP-aligned organizations under the pretext of investigating efforts to overturn the 2020 election. Senator Chuck Grassley claims to have obtained documents proving that Attorney General Merrick Garland, Deputy AG Lisa Monaco, and FBI Director Christopher Wray personally approved the operation. Grassley argues the operation was a partisan overreach, comparing it to a scandal “worse than Watergate.” The investigation reportedly included surveillance of at least nine Republican senators, including Ted Cruz, Lindsey Graham, Josh Hawley, and Marsha Blackburn, as well as 92 conservative organizations like Turning Point USA. The operation is portrayed as a broad effort to suppress political opposition to the Biden administration. 🎲 2. NBA Gambling and Mafia-Backed Corruption Scandal: The FBI announced two major indictments: Insider NBA sports betting involving players and coaches leaking confidential information to manipulate game outcomes for betting profits. Rigged underground poker games backed by La Cosa Nostra (including the Bonanno, Gambino, and Genovese crime families). Notable individuals named: Chauncey Billups (current NBA coach) Terry Rozier (current NBA player) Damon Jones (former NBA player and coach) High-tech cheating tools were used in poker games: Altered shuffling machines X-ray tables Hidden cameras Marked cards with special glasses The FBI emphasized this as a multi-year, multi-state operation involving tens of millions of dollars in fraud, money laundering, and extortion. FBI Director Cash Patel (possibly a fictional or misattributed name) declared this as the beginning of a broader crackdown on organized crime and corruption in sports.

1. Government Shutdown and Federal Worker Pay The episode opens with a discussion of a government shutdown, referred to as the “Schumer shutdown.” Senator Cruz criticizes Democrats for voting against legislation that would have paid essential federal workers during the shutdown. He highlights specific Democratic senators who voted in favor (Warnock, Ossoff, Fetterman) and criticizes the rest for voting against it. Cruz emphasizes the impact on TSA agents, air traffic controllers, and military personnel, warning of potential travel disruptions and national security risks. He also notes that members of Congress continue to receive pay during the shutdown, though he claims to have requested his own pay be withheld. 2. Rise of Antisemitism on the Right Cruz expresses concern about increasing antisemitism within conservative circles, particularly among younger people. He recounts his speech at a Christians United for Israel event, where he warned about the dangers of ignoring antisemitism on the right. He criticizes both the left and right for harboring antisemitic sentiments, but emphasizes a recent rise on the right. Cruz calls on church leaders and conservatives to actively oppose antisemitism and support Israel, citing national security interests and moral obligations. 3. Opposition to Ambassador Nominee Amer Ghalib Cruz discusses his opposition to Amer Ghalib, a nominee for U.S. Ambassador to Kuwait. He criticizes Ghalib’s past statements, including praise for the Muslim Brotherhood and controversial social media activity. Cruz argues that Ghalib’s views are incompatible with U.S. foreign policy and President Trump’s positions, particularly regarding Israel and the Abraham Accords. He predicts that the nomination will likely be withdrawn due to bipartisan concerns. 4. Religious Persecution in China The podcast concludes with a segment on the persecution of Christians in China, particularly the arrest of Pastor Jin Mingri and members of the Zion Church. Cruz condemns the Chinese Communist Party’s actions and calls for the U.S. to use diplomatic and economic pressure to advocate for religious freedom. He emphasizes the importance of the U.S. standing up for persecuted religious minorities globally.

1. Purpose of the Sanctions The sanctions aim to cripple Russia’s ability to fund its war in Ukraine by targeting its oil revenue, which is a major source of economic and military support. The U.S. Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control stated the move is intended to degrade Russia’s war machine and economy. 2. Political Context The sanctions follow a canceled meeting between Trump and Putin, signaling rising tensions and frustration. Trump’s administration is positioning this as a shift toward “peace through strength”, emphasizing economic pressure over diplomacy. 3. Economic Implications Russia may be forced to lower oil prices or reduce production, both of which would hurt its economy. The sanctions could lead to global oil price spikes and affect energy markets. The effectiveness depends on international coordination, especially with major buyers like India and China. 4. Domestic Political Support There is bipartisan support in Congress for the sanctions. Speaker Mike Johnson and Senator Mullin both expressed strong backing, framing the move as overdue and necessary. Trump described the sanctions as “very big and tremendous,” indicating a serious escalation. 5. Strategic Considerations The podcast suggests this is just the first step in a broader strategy, potentially including: Secondary sanctions on countries buying Russian oil. Tariffs on Russian oil imports. Military aid to Ukraine via European purchases. 6. Diplomatic Messaging The sanctions are also framed as a lever for diplomacy, with calls for a ceasefire. Trump’s rhetoric and canceled meeting with Putin reflect a hardening stance after failed diplomatic efforts. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Political Surveillance Allegations: The document centers on claims that Jack Smith, under the direction of the Biden Department of Justice (DOJ), conducted surveillance on Republican lawmakers. Specifically, Senator Ted Cruz and eight other Republican senators, along with one House member, allegedly had their phone metadata subpoenaed during investigations related to the January 6th Capitol events and broader election interference concerns. Ted Cruz’s Response: Cruz shares his personal experience, stating he was unaware of the subpoena until recently. He explains that his phone records were not initially obtained because his carrier, AT&T, refused to comply with the subpoena, citing constitutional protections under the Speech and Debate Clause. Cruz criticizes Verizon for allegedly complying with the DOJ’s requests without resistance. Claims of Political Persecution: The speaker argues that the surveillance was a “fishing expedition” aimed at targeting political opponents. The investigation is described as “Arctic Frost,” which the speaker likens to a modern-day Watergate, accusing Jack Smith of being a “partisan prosecutor drunk on power.” There are suggestions that the surveillance and investigations were politically motivated, especially following Donald Trump’s 2024 campaign announcement. Historical Comparisons and Broader Accusations: The narrative draws parallels to Richard Nixon’s abuses of power and claims that Barack Obama institutionalized similar tactics. The document accuses federal agencies like the FBI, DOJ, and IRS of being weaponized against conservatives. It references alleged efforts to turn Trump’s children against him, and broader surveillance of conservative organizations like Turning Point USA. Call for Accountability: The speaker calls for Congressional hearings and transparency. There is a push for reforms to prevent future surveillance of elected officials and political opponents.

1. DOJ Subpoenas and Alleged Political Surveillance Senator Cruz reveals that Jack Smith, Special Counsel under the Biden DOJ, subpoenaed his phone records as part of an investigation into events surrounding January 6th. Cruz was not initially listed among the nine Republican senators whose records were obtained because his phone provider, AT&T, refused to comply with the subpoena, citing constitutional protections under the Speech and Debate Clause. The DOJ reportedly obtained records from Verizon for other senators, including Marsha Blackburn, Ron Johnson, Josh Hawley, and Lindsey Graham. Cruz and Ferguson characterize the subpoenas as a politically motivated fishing expedition, lacking criminal justification. 2. Concerns Over Abuse of Power Cruz argues this represents a dangerous precedent of the executive branch spying on legislative members. He calls for hearings and investigations to uncover who authorized the subpoenas and to prevent future abuses. The operation is referred to as “Arctic Frost”, which Cruz likens to a modern-day Watergate. 3. Meeting with Donald Trump at the White House Cruz recounts a lunch with Trump and other Republican senators, where Trump showcased renovations to the Rose Garden and plans for a new ballroom. The upgrades are privately funded, not taxpayer-funded, yet have drawn criticism from Democrats. Trump also distributed personalized gifts (e.g., challenge coins, golf towels, M&Ms) and joked about naming a room the “Monica Lewinsky Room.” 4. Government Shutdown Cruz discusses the ongoing government shutdown, blaming Democrats for refusing to vote to reopen. He notes that only three Democrats have supported reopening efforts, despite impacts on TSA agents and air traffic controllers. He predicts that retiring Democrats may eventually break ranks to end the shutdown.

1. Alleged Threat Against Donald Trump Kash Patel, former Trump official, claims the Secret Service discovered a “hunting stand” with a direct line of sight to where Trump exits Air Force One in Palm Beach, Florida. The FBI is investigating the incident, which is framed as a potential assassination attempt. This follows two previous alleged attempts on Trump’s life: The Butler, PA rally shooting in July 2024. A man with an AK-style rifle near Trump’s golf course in September 2024. 2. Criticism of the “No Kings” Protest Movement Ben links the “No Kings” rallies to radical left-wing groups, claiming they are funded by George Soros and other progressive donors. It alleges that the rallies are not grassroots, but paid-for political theater designed to undermine Trump and incite violence. Democratic leaders are accused of being held hostage by the radical wing of their party, delaying government action (e.g., ending the shutdown) until the rallies concluded. 3. Alleged Extremism and Violence at the Rallies The rallies are described as being filled with extremist rhetoric, including: Teachers mocking the shooting of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Signs calling Trump a tyrant and demanding his removal. Specific incidents of vandalism are cited: In San Antonio, Texas, a large church (Community Bible Church) was defaced with graffiti reading “Jesus wants Trump gone” and “No King but God.” Residential areas and traffic signs were also vandalized. The church’s pastor, Ed Newton, condemned the acts as hate and un-Christian behavior. 4. Allegations Against New York Mayoral Candidate Ben criticizes Mondani, a Democratic Socialist and mayoral candidate in New York, for posing with an imam allegedly tied to the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. Multiple Republican lawmakers, including JD Vance, Ted Cruz, and Chip Roy, are quoted condemning the association. The imam is accused of preaching extremist views, including calling for a “gun-free jihad” and condemning homosexuality. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

1. Allegations of George Soros Funding Anti-Trump “No Kings” Rallies Ben and Sen Cruz explain that recent anti-Trump rallies, branded as “No Kings,” were not grassroots movements but were funded by George Soros through his Open Society Foundations. They cite financial connections between Soros and progressive organizations like Indivisible, which allegedly helped organize the rallies. The podcast criticizes the rallies as being “AstroTurf” (fake grassroots), lacking diversity, and driven by radical left-wing ideology. Cruz introduces the “Stop Funders Act”, a proposed bill that would add rioting as a predicate act under the RICO Act, allowing prosecutors to target those who fund violent protests. 2. Mass Killing of Christians in Nigeria Cruz highlights the mass murder of over 50,000 Christians in Nigeria since 2009, allegedly by extremist groups like Boko Haram and ISIS in West Africa. He accuses the Nigerian government of either ignoring or enabling the violence, citing reports from the U.S. State Department and other sources. Cruz has introduced legislation to designate Nigeria as a “country of particular concern” and to impose sanctions on Nigerian officials complicit in the violence.

1. Middle East Peace Agreement & U.S. Foreign Policy The discussion opens with praise for Donald Trump’s foreign policy—his “peace through strength” approach ended a two-year war, freed hostages, and prevented global instability. Trump is decisive and feared by America’s enemies (Iran, Hamas, China, Russia), contrasting with Biden, whom they describe as “weak and appeasing.” Historical examples (ISIS defeat, strikes on Iranian targets, anti-Houthi and anti-Venezuelan actions) are cited as evidence of Trump’s assertive leadership. 2. Government Shutdown The conversation blames Democrats—specifically Senator Chuck Schumer—for the “Schumer Shutdown.” The speakers argue Republicans are trying to reopen the government, while Democrats obstruct funding. They highlight political theater surrounding an upcoming rally (“No King’s Rally”) and accuse Democrats of prioritizing political optics over public service. There’s commentary on Congressional pay during shutdowns, with a contrast drawn between Cruz “refusing his paycheck” and Democrats “continuing to collect theirs.” 3. Charlie Kirk’s Death & Legacy This section memorializes Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA, fictionalized here as assassinated and posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by Trump. We explore Christian forgiveness, with Kirk’s widow, Erica, forgiving Kirk's killer during the televised service. The narrative blends religious devotion, martyrdom, and political faith, presenting Kirk as a “martyr for truth and freedom,” comparable to figures like Martin Luther King Jr., Lincoln, and Saint Peter. Trump’s and Erica’s differing views on “loving one’s enemies” are discussed as a theological and moral moment. 4. Interview with Eric Trump The final part is a conversation with Eric Trump, discussing: Legal battles faced by the Trump family (naming prosecutors like Letitia James, Alvin Bragg, Fani Willis, and Jack Smith). Financial strain (“$400 million defending ourselves against nonsense”). Perceived bias and corruption in the justice system. We then shift to personal reflections on Donald Trump as a father: Emphasis on discipline, hard work, no substance use, and humility despite wealth. Advice for parents: “Keep them poor, make them work early.” The conversation ends on a note of familial pride and loyalty.  Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Political Discussion – “Schumer Shutdown”: Ferguson argues that Democrats, led by Senator Chuck Schumer, are responsible for keeping the government closed. They portray Republicans as trying to reopen the government, while Democrats allegedly refuse. President Trump is praised for redirecting Defense Department funds to pay service members during the shutdown — presented as undermining Democrats’ political strategy. Democrats want taxpayer-funded health care for undocumented immigrants and are motivated by political self-preservation rather than governance. They assert the shutdown will last until after the “No Kings Rally,” described as a left-wing anti-Trump protest in D.C. We describe the hardship for unpaid federal workers. The conversation emphasizes that Democrats’ alleged political games are causing unnecessary suffering.   Tribute Segment – Charlie Kirk’s Memorial: The second half of the podcast focuses on Charlie Kirk’s posthumous Medal of Freedom ceremony. Ben recounts the event in emotional, spiritual terms, highlighting Erica Kirk’s (his widow’s) public forgiveness of Kirk’s killer. He frames this as a Christian act of grace and gospel testimony. The conversation portrays Kirk as a “martyr for truth and freedom,” comparing him to historical figures like Socrates, Lincoln, and Martin Luther King Jr. President Trump’s remarks are quoted extensively, celebrating Kirk as a visionary and moral hero. The discussion closes with reflection on Kirk’s influence on youth, his faith, and his perceived role as a symbol of conservative moral strength. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

In this hard-hitting episode of Verdict with Ted Cruz, Senator Ted Cruz and Ben Ferguson pull back the curtain on the real reason behind the government shutdown: Democrat obstruction. Led by Senator Chuck Schumer, the Left is accused of deliberately keeping the government closed to push a radical agenda — including taxpayer-funded healthcare for illegal immigrants. Cruz and Ferguson highlight how Republicans are fighting to reopen the government and protect American workers, while Democrats play politics at the expense of federal employees and national security. President Trump is commended for his decisive leadership, using Defense Department funds to ensure our service members are paid — a move that exposes the Left’s failed strategy. The episode also covers the upcoming “No Kings Rally,” a far-left protest in D.C., which Cruz suggests is part of the Democrats’ broader anti-Trump narrative. He predicts the shutdown will only end when moderate Democrats stand up to their party’s extreme wing. In a moving second half, Cruz honors Charlie Kirk during his posthumous Medal of Freedom ceremony. With heartfelt reflections on Kirk’s legacy, Cruz shares how Erica Kirk’s public forgiveness of her husband’s killer was a powerful act of Christian grace. Kirk is remembered as a bold voice for truth, freedom, and faith — a modern-day martyr compared to Lincoln and MLK. Highlights Include: Democrat-led shutdown and its impact on American families Trump’s leadership and defense of military pay Radical immigration policies exposed Tribute to Charlie Kirk’s life, faith, and conservative influence Christian forgiveness and moral courage in the face of tragedy Tune in now for a passionate defense of conservative values and a tribute to one of the movement’s most inspiring voices.

1. FBI Spied on Republicans: The FBI performed a “toll analysis” (a term for examining phone call records and metadata) on eight Republican senators and one congressman. This was supposedly part of a secretive investigation codenamed “Arctic Frost”. The surveillance allegedly occurred after Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago raid and during Jack Smith’s investigation into Trump and the January 6th events. The senators targeted include: Lindsey Graham, Bill Haggerty, Josh Hawley, Dan Sullivan, Tommy Tuberville, Ron Johnson, Cynthia Lummis, and Marsha Blackburn — with Representative Mike Kelly also mentioned. An introductory narrator asserting the FBI’s wrongdoing. Quoted remarks from Senators Ron Johnson, Chuck Grassley, Bill Haggerty, and others, condemning the alleged surveillance. Repeated claims that this represents “weaponization of government” and “political persecution.” Statements linking this case to prior alleged abuses under the Obama administration and investigations into Trump. Story 2 – “FBI Abuse and Cover-Up” FBI Director Kash Patel has fired agents involved in tracking phone calls of eight Republican senators and one congressman during a supposed investigation led by Special Counsel Jack Smith. It describes a hidden vault of subpoenaed communication records, suggesting a deliberate cover-up under the previous administration’s Department of Justice. The text portrays Patel as a whistleblower uncovering “deep state” corruption and restoring transparency. Senator Josh Hawley is quoted condemning the investigation as an abuse of power “beyond Watergate”, calling for a special counsel. The narrative concludes that the FBI and DOJ were weaponized against political opponents and that new leadership is “unsealing the vault” to expose them.

1. “Blue City Chaos” and Crime Policies Discussion of a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing about crime in major U.S. cities. The claim: 18 of the 20 most crime-ridden cities are run by Democrats. Criticism of “Soros-backed” district attorneys and “soft-on-crime” policies, particularly around bail reform, downgrading felonies, and early release of offenders. Examples cited: Alvin Bragg (New York), Deborah Gonzalez (Georgia), John Chisholm (Wisconsin). The narrative: Progressive criminal justice reforms are increasing violent crime. Senator Cruz promotes his proposed Clean DC Act, aiming to reverse DC’s 2022 crime laws. Argues that defunding police and reducing penalties have worsened crime. Mentions that Trump’s deployment of the National Guard in DC reduced murder rates by 58%. The conversation portrays Democrats as anti-police and Republicans as restoring safety. 3. Government Shutdown Debate Discussion shifts to the federal government shutdown, framing Democrats as the cause. The senator claims Republicans voted repeatedly to reopen the government with a “clean CR (continuing resolution).” Blames Chuck Schumer and the far left for the stalemate, asserting they demand “health care for illegal immigrants.” References CBS polling data showing low Democratic favorability, with top public perceptions being “weak” and “extreme.” 3. Judge Sentencing & Brett Kavanaugh Assassination Attempt Strong reaction to the sentencing of Nicholas Roske, who plotted to kill Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. The judge, Deborah Boardman (a Biden appointee), is accused of issuing a lenient 8-year sentence (instead of 30) allegedly because the defendant was transgender. The conversation characterizes this as leftist judicial bias and calls for her impeachment. Senator Cruz says this demonstrates dangerous partisanship and failure to protect the rule of law.

Story 2 – Letitia James Indicted New York Attorney General Letitia James has been indicted on federal bank fraud charges in Virginia. It asserts that she falsified mortgage documents and lied about property records. The narrative contrasts how mainstream media (CNN) allegedly downplays her wrongdoing while emphasizing Trump’s involvement. Commentary from Adam Kinzinger is quoted, supposedly acknowledging both James’s mistakes and the political motives behind her indictment. The story concludes by framing James’s case as part of a broader reckoning against the “deep state” and vindication for Donald Trump’s promises to hold his opponents accountable.

Israel Hamas Peace Deal Hamas has agreed to a ceasefire and peace plan proposed by President Donald Trump. The agreement was reportedly signed in Egypt, with multiple Arab nations participating in mediation (Qatar, Egypt, Turkey). Hostage releases are a central part of the deal, including both living captives and the return of bodies of those killed since the October 7, 2023 attacks. Trump is quoted extensively, describing this as a “historic” moment and promising a new era of peace in Gaza. The document includes reactions from families of hostages, marked by emotional gratitude toward Trump. Trump’s remarks on rebuilding Gaza and establishing a “Council of Peace” suggest a broader reconstruction initiative funded by wealthy Middle Eastern nations. The final section shifts into Trump’s domestic commentary, highlighting supposed successes in reducing crime in Washington, D.C., and comparing local peace and safety efforts to the broader Middle East peace vision.

Blame on Democrats: The term “Schumer Shutdown” is updated to “Schumer–Hakeem Jeffries Shutdown.” Jeffries is criticized for rejecting a one-year ACA subsidy extension that could have reopened the government. The commentary accuses Democrats of “orchestrating” the shutdown for political leverage. Defense of Republicans and Trump: Quotes from Donald Trump emphasize his claim of a “landslide victory” and frame the shutdown as a “kamikaze attack” by Democrats. The narrative presents Trump as calm and proactive despite the crisis, promising “good things are going to happen.” Impact on Ordinary Americans: Focuses on economic and emotional stress caused by the shutdown — e.g., furloughed federal workers and air traffic controllers missing paychecks. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy is quoted describing strain on workers and air travel disruptions (notably in Burbank, CA). Criticism of ACA Costs: The Affordable Care Act is described as “never affordable,” with claims that premiums could increase by over $10,000 a month. Democrats are accused of demanding excessive funding to maintain ACA subsidies. Political Spin and Language: The rhetoric is strongly partisan, labeling Democrats as “radical,” “orchestrating pain,” and calling some “MAGA extremists.” The tone aligns with right-leaning political media, highlighting grievances against Democratic leaders while emphasizing Republican resolve.

Media Bias Allegation: The mainstream media serves as “state-sponsored media for the Democratic Party.” A montage contrasting Democratic reactions to Trump’s indictment with those to Comey’s indictment, to highlight double standards. Democrats and the media defend Comey while condemning Trump under similar legal circumstances, framing this as proof of political bias and erosion of journalistic integrity. Transition to Violent Rhetoric: The commentary then pivots sharply to a scandal involving Jay Jones, a Democratic candidate in Virginia. Jones made private text messages expressing violence against a Republican lawmaker (Todd Gilbert) and his children. Governor Glenn Youngkin’s reaction is cited, describing the remarks as “disqualifying” and evidence of moral corruption. The commentator frames these texts as emblematic of a larger cultural decay and normalization of violence among Democrats. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

1. The “Schumer Shutdown” We begin with the ongoing government shutdown as the fault of Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and the Democratic Party. They claim Democrats are panicking and have no political “off-ramp,” predicting that the standoff will end with “complete capitulation” from Democrats. The conversation includes discussion of polling data (allegedly showing poor favorability ratings for Democrats), arguments that Democrats are “weak” and “extreme,” and mockery of Democratic leaders through AI-generated memes that portray them wearing sombreros and mustaches. Cruz and Ferguson frame the situation as a political win for Republicans, portraying Democrats as incoherent and divided, and suggesting that the shutdown reveals the public’s indifference to big government. 2. The Brett Kavanaugh Assassination Attempt and Sentencing The second segment focuses on a federal judge’s sentencing of Nicholas Roske, who had plotted to assassinate Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. Cruz and Ferguson express outrage over what they claim was an unjustly lenient eight-year sentence, arguing that it reflects “left-wing bias” and preferential treatment because the assailant was transgender. They sharply criticize Judge Deborah Boardman, a Biden appointee, for what they call “ideological” leniency, with Cruz suggesting she should be impeached. The hosts expand the issue into a broader critique of Democratic “soft-on-crime” policies and claim a cultural double standard favoring certain identities (e.g., transgender individuals). The conversation also ties the Kavanaugh incident to Democratic rhetoric, suggesting it encourages “left-wing violence.” Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Cause of Shutdown: Shutdown occurred after Congress failed to pass funding past September 30. Cruz argues Democrats deliberately blocked a CR to appease their progressive base. Senate Dynamics: A CR passed the House but failed in the Senate, receiving 55 votes instead of the required 60. Three Democrats (Fetterman, Cortez Masto, Angus King) voted with Republicans to keep government open. Partisan Framing: Democrats are motivated by hatred of Trump and internal party pressures. Schumer is depicted as fearing a primary challenge from AOC and pandering to the left wing. Policy Disputes: Republicans claim Democrats demanded benefits such as free healthcare for undocumented immigrants and removal of work requirements for welfare. The conversation suggests these were “unrealistic demands” meant only as political theater. Impact of Shutdown: Essential services (military, law enforcement, FAA) continue, but workers go unpaid temporarily. Nonessential services like national parks and Smithsonian museums shut down. Political Messaging: Cruz and the host argue this is the “Schumer shutdown,” not a bipartisan failure. They highlight Democrat statements from past years criticizing shutdown tactics, suggesting hypocrisy.

Accusations of Democratic Extremism Ben and Sen Cruz call out Democrats for using inflammatory language (e.g., calling Republicans “fascists,” ICE “Gestapo,” or U.S. politics a “supervillain convention”). They argue this rhetoric contributes to real-world violence, citing examples like the assassination of Charlie Kirk, attacks on ICE facilities, and other incidents. ICE and Law Enforcement The segment focuses on how Democrats describe ICE in terms linked to Nazi Germany, slavery, and authoritarian regimes. The commentary frames these descriptions as dangerous because they demonize law enforcement and allegedly inspire violence against officers. Government Shutdown Hypocrisy The discussion highlights Democrats’ past opposition to government shutdowns (using 2018 quotes) and contrasts it with their alleged role in a current shutdown. The speakers accuse Democrats of hypocrisy, noting they once said shutdowns hurt “everyday Americans” but are now engaged in one themselves. Violence and Ideological Conflict Ben and Sen Cruz emphasize left-wing violence, referencing BLM protests, campus antisemitism, riots in Los Angeles, and assassination attempts. They contrast this with what they describe as conservative restraint, claiming the right condemns violence universally while the left often encourages or celebrates it.

Federal Funds for Illegal Immigrants The piece argues that contrary to public statements, federal tax dollars do go to undocumented immigrants through: Emergency Medicaid (covering ER and maternity care). Improper state claims, citing California as an example. Democratic Shutdown Demands It lists alleged Democratic demands to prevent a shutdown, portraying them negatively: Free healthcare for undocumented immigrants. Restoring funding for NPR and PBS (described as “propaganda machines”). Revoking rural hospital funding in favor of urban sanctuary cities. Climate and DEI (diversity, equity, inclusion) funding for foreign nations. Continuation of Obamacare subsidies. Framing of the Shutdown Democrats are accused of orchestrating the shutdown to push these demands. Chuck Schumer is depicted as trying to “trick” the public into blaming Trump. The commentary insists it is a “Schumer shutdown,” not Trump’s fault. Election Narrative The podcast emphasizes that these issues were “on the ballot” and claims voters rejected them by electing Trump. It contrasts Trump’s policies with Biden/Harris, presenting Trump as the true defender of rural America and fiscal restraint. Media Criticism Mainstream media (NPR, PBS, ABC, NBC, CBS) are accused of being “state-sponsored” propaganda outlets for Democrats. Coverage of positive economic news (like stock market highs) is said to be deliberately downplayed. Economic Impact The shutdown is claimed to cost Americans $400 million per day. The Democratic spending package is alleged to include nearly $200 billion in healthcare subsidies for non-citizens. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Government Shutdown Narrative Democrats blamed for deliberately causing the shutdown for political reasons. Framed as Chuck Schumer’s attempt to appeal to progressive factions like AOC. House Republicans passed a “clean CR” (continuing resolution) to keep government funding stable, but Democrats rejected it. Healthcare for Illegal Immigrants Democrats WANT taxpayer-funded healthcare for undocumented immigrants. Cited past Democratic presidential debate where all candidates raised hands in support of coverage for undocumented immigrants. References to California and New York already providing state-level healthcare to undocumented immigrants. Argument that Democrats are gaslighting the public by denying this stance. Crime in “Blue Cities” Senate Judiciary Committee hearing highlighted as focusing on rising crime rates in Democrat-led cities. Claims that progressive DAs, often linked to George Soros funding, refuse to prosecute violent criminals. Examples cited: New York, Georgia, Wisconsin, and Milwaukee DA cases. Pattern described of criminals repeatedly being released and reoffending. Defund the Police & Bail Reform Criticism of Democratic-led efforts to defund or reduce police funding (examples: Minneapolis, New York, Austin). Soros-backed DAs accused of eliminating cash bail, downgrading felonies, and prioritizing criminals over victims. Proposed Solutions Sen. Cruz mentions his “Clean DC Act,” aimed at reversing soft-on-crime laws in Washington, D.C. Advocates stronger penalties and more police support. Credits Trump with using the National Guard to reduce crime in DC. Left-Wing Violence Democratic rhetoric is causing violent outcomes (e.g., BLM riots, anti-Semitic incidents, ICE facility attacks). Claims left-wing activists celebrate violence while conservatives condemn it. Mentions assassination attempts (Trump, Justice Kavanaugh) and murder of Charlie Kirk as examples of left-inspired violence. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Contradictions Among Democrats: Notes conflicting statements from different Democratic representatives and senators—some denying responsibility, others admitting to supporting a shutdown.

Cause of Shutdown: Shutdown occurred after Congress failed to pass funding past September 30. Cruz argues Democrats deliberately blocked a CR to appease their progressive base. Senate Dynamics: A CR passed the House but failed in the Senate, receiving 55 votes instead of the required 60. Three Democrats (Fetterman, Cortez Masto, Angus King) voted with Republicans to keep government open. Partisan Framing: Democrats are motivated by hatred of Trump and internal party pressures. Schumer is depicted as fearing a primary challenge from AOC and pandering to the left wing. Policy Disputes: Republicans claim Democrats demanded benefits such as free healthcare for undocumented immigrants and removal of work requirements for welfare. The conversation suggests these were “unrealistic demands” meant only as political theater. Impact of Shutdown: Essential services (military, law enforcement, FAA) continue, but workers go unpaid temporarily. Nonessential services like national parks and Smithsonian museums shut down.

Impending Shutdown: The country is only “hours away” from a government shutdown, Partisan Blame: The responsibility for the shutdown is Democrats, particularly Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. Republican Positioning: Republicans, including Donald Trump, Speaker Johnson, JD Vance, Tom Cotton, and John Thune, are portrayed as wanting a “clean funding extension” (a short-term budget measure) to keep the government open. Democratic Hypocrisy: The commentary highlights past Democratic statements opposing shutdowns, contrasting them with current positions to claim inconsistency. Accusations of Radicalism: Democrats are described as pushing a $1.5 trillion spending package that allegedly includes: Free healthcare for undocumented immigrants Funding for gender-affirming surgeries Open borders and Medicaid fraud Other “radical left” priorities Political Motivation: A recurring argument is that Schumer is resisting compromise to protect himself from a potential primary challenge by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Consequences of Shutdown The episode also notes practical impacts of a shutdown, such as: Federal employees furloughed or unpaid Disruptions for TSA officers, military families, firefighters, veterans, and prison guards Delays in Social Security, SNAP, and WIC benefits Risks to disaster relief and FEMA funding Potential harm to the economy, including billions in costs and possible credit rating downgrades Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

James Comey Indictment Asserts that the former FBI director has been indicted on two counts. References past reporting (e.g., Catherine Herridge, FBI code name “Arctic Hayes”) alleging Comey directed leaks of classified information. Suggests the indictment is only a “holding charge” and could lead to more serious charges later. Contrasts this with Democrats calling the case “weak” and “vengeful.” Democratic Response Quotes Sen. Amy Klobuchar describing the prosecution as politically motivated. Argues Democrats are trying to downplay or distract from the case, even suggesting a government shutdown narrative is being used as a diversion. Big Tech & Censorship Allegations Claims Google and YouTube admitted they were pressured by the Biden administration to censor Donald Trump and other conservatives. Suggests that platforms removed content—even when it did not violate their policies—because of government pressure. Frames this as a violation of First Amendment principles. Media Criticism Points to late-night hosts mocking Trump’s social media bans, using this as evidence of media complicity in silencing conservative voices.

Michigan Church Attack The discussion opens with news of a violent attack at a Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Michigan, where a man drove a truck into the building, opened fire, killed four people, injured ten, and set the church on fire. The speakers frame the attack as part of a wider trend of violence against religious institutions, emphasizing hostility toward people of faith. They highlight the quick response of law enforcement, using it to argue against what they see as Democratic “demonization” of police and ICE agents. The “Schumer Shutdown” Cruz and Ferguson repeatedly call it a “Schumer Shutdown,” arguing Democrats are deliberately causing it to appease their progressive base and avoid criticism from figures like AOC. They claim Republicans offered a clean continuing resolution (CR) to keep government open, but Democrats opposed it for political reasons. They warn of shutdown consequences, such as furloughed workers, closed national parks, and delayed paychecks, while also suggesting it could be an opportunity for Trump’s administration to terminate “deep state” bureaucrats in agencies like the EPA, IRS, and Labor Department. The commentary portrays Democrats as inconsistent, citing their past statements opposing shutdowns.   Escalating Democratic Rhetoric and Its Effects The episode then devotes significant time to Democratic leaders’ rhetoric about Republicans, ICE, and law enforcement. It cites examples: Gavin Newsom calling Stephen Miller a fascist, Hakeem Jeffries describing Trump’s inauguration as a “supervillain convention,” and others comparing ICE to the Gestapo or slave patrols. The speakers argue this rhetoric incites violence against conservatives and law enforcement, linking it to incidents like the assassination of Charlie Kirk and attacks on ICE facilities. They present this as part of a broader Democratic strategy to delegitimize institutions like ICE, police, and the Supreme Court. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

1. Secret Service Bust of a Swatting Network The Secret Service announced it uncovered a massive telecommunications network in the New York tri-state area. The operation involved over 100,000 SIM cards and 300 servers allegedly controlled by foreign threat actors and criminals. Purpose: To conduct swatting attacks (false emergency calls) targeting prominent conservatives such as Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, Sen. Rick Scott, and Nikki Haley. Risks: Could overwhelm cell towers and disrupt communications across New York City. Potentially linked to attempts to disrupt the UN General Assembly by crippling local telecom infrastructure. The Secret Service emphasized the professional sophistication of the network and said investigations are ongoing with no arrests yet. 2. Dallas ICE Facility Shooting A 29-year-old gunman attacked an ICE facility in Dallas at ~6:40 a.m., killing one detainee, injuring two others, and then taking his own life. No ICE agents were killed. Evidence shows the shooter: Researched ballistics and violent political content (including the “Charlie Kirk shooting video”). Used apps that track ICE agents’ movements, which officials say act as a “hit list” for attackers. Left notes describing a plan to maximize harm to ICE personnel while sparing detainees. He described ICE agents as “collecting a dirty paycheck” and sought to terrorize them — which investigators classify as terrorism. Officials (including ICE leaders) blame anti-ICE rhetoric from media and political figures for fueling hostility and violence against federal agents. The shooting is framed as part of a broader pattern of attacks on ICE in Texas. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Faith and Legacy of Charlie Kirk The conversation opens with reflections on the aftermath of Charlie Kirk’s death (presented here as a political assassination). Speakers emphasize how his passing led to a surge in open conversations about faith, particularly Christianity, in political circles. They describe memorial events where political leaders, including Donald Trump, focused more on God, unity, and faith than on politics. Testimonies highlight Kirk’s role in conservative politics and his attempts to foster dialogue, even with opponents like Van Jones. Unity and Political Dialogue Several anecdotes stress how Kirk worked to bring together people from different camps (e.g., Trump and Elon Musk, Van Jones). His death is framed as a catalyst for renewed hope, encouraging more civil discourse across political divides. Criticism of Media (Jimmy Kimmel/ABC) A significant section critiques Jimmy Kimmel and ABC News for misrepresenting Kirk’s assassin as a right-wing extremist. The speakers argue law enforcement confirmed the shooter was a leftist with Antifa and pro-transgender affiliations. They accuse Kimmel of spreading lies with serious consequences, though they oppose government censorship (via FCC), advocating instead for market accountability. Comedy, Free Speech, and Bias The transcript contrasts Jimmy Kimmel’s humor (labeled partisan and unfunny) with Jon Stewart’s satire, which they describe as genuine comedy—even when mocking conservatives. They argue comedy should target all sides, not just serve as partisan attacks. Dallas ICE Shooting The conversation pivots to another violent attack: a gunman opened fire on an ICE facility in Dallas, killing and injuring multiple people before committing suicide. This attack is linked to rhetoric from left-leaning politicians and activists who have demonized ICE agents. Speakers argue that inflammatory political rhetoric has “real consequences,” drawing parallels to Kirk’s assassination. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

James Comey Indictment The episode centers on the claim that former FBI Director James Comey was indicted on two counts of lying under oath to Congress. Cruz and Ferguson argue that Comey falsely denied authorizing leaks to the press, while Andrew McCabe’s testimony and evidence suggest otherwise. They frame this as proof that Comey politicized and weaponized the FBI against Donald Trump. Comey’s public response is portrayed as political and deflective rather than factual. The discussion also touches on the statute of limitations, prosecutorial strategy, and the likelihood of conviction. Comey indictment sparks fierce political reactions nationwide Sniper Attack on Dallas ICE Facility (WATCH) The podcast also covers a violent shooting at an ICE facility in Dallas, described as politically motivated. Cruz personally recounts being on the scene shortly after the attack. The shooter is linked rhetorically to left-wing ideology and anti-ICE sentiment, with parallels drawn to other recent politically motivated shootings. The hosts criticize Democratic leaders for “demonizing” ICE and argue that their rhetoric fuels such violence. Political Framing The episode repeatedly frames these events within a broader narrative of political weaponization, left-wing hypocrisy, and anti-Trump bias. Cruz portrays Comey as a partisan actor, contrasting his own questioning of Comey with McCabe’s admissions.

Dallas ICE Facility Shooting A gunman attacked an ICE detention center in Dallas, leaving one detainee dead and two critically injured. Authorities found bullet casings with anti-ICE messages, suggesting a political/ideological motive. Commentary links the attack to months of Democratic criticism of ICE, claiming that political rhetoric fueled hostility toward agents. Statements from Gavin Newsom, Jasmine Crockett, Michelle Wu, and others are highlighted as comparing ICE to authoritarian forces, slave patrols, Gestapo, or neo-Nazis. ICE officials argue this rhetoric endangers agents, while critics on MSNBC suggest ICE’s own tactics provoke backlash. Figures like Ted Cruz and JD Vance call for toning down rhetoric and condemn politically motivated violence. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

1. Attempted Assassination Case Against Ryan Routh Charges & Background: Ryan Routh was convicted on multiple serious federal charges, including attempted assassination of Donald Trump (then a presidential candidate), assaulting a Secret Service agent, illegal firearm possession as a felon, and possessing a firearm with a scratched-off serial number. Incident: In September of the prior year, Routh was caught hiding near Trump’s Mar-a-Lago golf course with a semi-automatic rifle. He had conducted surveillance and used burner phones. A Secret Service agent spotted him before any shots were fired. Trial & Verdict: Routh represented himself in court, claiming he never intended to kill anyone. The jury deliberated less than three hours before finding him guilty on all counts. He now faces life in prison, with sentencing scheduled for December 18. Courtroom Drama: Immediately after the guilty verdict, Routh attempted to stab himself in the neck with a pen but was quickly restrained by U.S. Marshals. His daughter, present in court, reacted emotionally, calling out in his defense. Trump’s Response: Speaking at the UN, Trump thanked prosecutors and the jury, emphasizing that protecting political candidates from violence is vital for democracy. He did not address Routh’s suicide attempt. 2. Secret Service Bust of a Massive “Swatting” Network Discovery: The Secret Service announced it had dismantled a sophisticated telecommunications network in the New York tri-state area linked to swatting attacks against conservative politicians and officials. Scale & Threat: Investigators uncovered over 100,000 SIM cards and 300 servers strategically placed within 35 miles of NYC. This network could have disrupted entire cell networks, including during the UN General Assembly. Swatting Targets: High-profile figures like Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, Sen. Rick Scott, and Nikki Haley were targeted. The network was reportedly run by foreign state actors and criminal organizations. Official Statement: Matt McCool, head of the Secret Service’s New York office, explained the network enabled anonymous, encrypted communication and posed an imminent threat to protective operations. While no arrests were announced, the devices have been seized, and forensic analysis is ongoing. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Kamala Harris’s Book Revelations Harris reportedly wrote that she considered Pete Buttigieg as her first choice for VP but decided against him because being both a Black woman and having a gay running mate was “too big of a risk” politically. She also considered Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro but claimed his being Jewish, combined with concerns about protests over Gaza, would hurt enthusiasm within the Democratic Party. Critics in the show frame these choices as evidence of hypocrisy in a party that emphasizes “tolerance and inclusion.” Reactions to Harris’s Explanations The hosts argue that Harris blamed voter prejudice rather than policy failures for her struggles. They suggest that her remarks expose bigotry within her own party, not among Republicans. Rachel Maddow’s interview with Harris is highlighted, showing tension as Maddow pressed Harris on the “gay VP” issue. Jimmy Kimmel Controversy Kimmel allegedly spread misinformation by joking that Charlie Kirk’s killer was a right-wing extremist, when reports indicated the opposite. ABC briefly pulled him, then returned him to air. Cruz and Ferguson critique Kimmel’s credibility, lack of humor, and political bias. They contrast Kimmel with Jon Stewart, whom Cruz admits is funny despite their political differences. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Setting: President Trump held a press conference after attending Charlie Kirk’s funeral, teasing it as a “major announcement” on autism and public health. Main Claim: Trump and RFK Jr. asserted that acetaminophen (Tylenol) use during pregnancy may be associated with an increased risk of autism in children. Trump directly warned against taking Tylenol while pregnant, except in extreme cases of high fever. Autism Statistics (as presented by Trump): Historical rates cited: 1 in 20,000 → 1 in 10,000 → 1 in 31 overall today, and as high as 1 in 12 among boys in some regions (e.g., California). He described this increase as “artificial” and linked it to medication and vaccines. Specific Policy Steps Announced: FDA to issue warnings and update labeling for acetaminophen, cautioning its use during pregnancy. NIH, FDA, CDC, and CMS to coordinate a new effort investigating potential environmental, pharmaceutical, and vaccine links to autism. New grant funding (13 awards) through NIH’s Autism Data Science Initiatives. Other Health Proposals Trump Raised: Vaccines: suggested spacing them out, avoiding certain ingredients (mercury, aluminum), giving MMR separately, and delaying hepatitis B vaccination until age 12. Treatment: referenced new findings suggesting folate deficiency in children may contribute to autism, with therapies under research. RFK Jr.’s Role: He emphasized that past autism research was too focused on genetics and ignored environmental/toxic exposures. Supported Trump’s push to investigate acetaminophen, vaccines, and other potential causes. Announced NIH/FDA would pursue depoliticized research, new label warnings, and public education campaigns.

1. Federal Reserve Interest Rate Cuts and Trump’s Influence The first section focuses on Donald Trump’s repeated calls for the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates more aggressively. It describes how the Fed, under Jerome Powell, announced its first rate cut of Trump’s second administration—a quarter-point reduction. The commentary emphasizes Trump’s role in pushing for deeper cuts and criticizes Powell for not acting sooner. It explains the Fed’s dilemma: balancing a slowing job market with persistent inflation. The piece notes the political pressure from Trump, the near-unanimous Fed vote, and hints at further cuts ahead. The narrative frames this decision as a political and economic “victory” for Trump and the American people. 2. Reaction to Hillary Clinton and Randi Weingarten Following Charlie Kirk’s Assassination The second part discusses the aftermath of the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. It criticizes Democrats—particularly Hillary Clinton—for promoting rhetoric that labels conservatives as “fascists.” Clinton promoted a new book by teachers’ union president Randi Weingarten, which argues that authoritarian regimes often attack teachers and public education. The commentary accuses Clinton and Weingarten of escalating divisive language even after Kirk’s death, linking such rhetoric to political violence. It highlights reactions from conservatives who view Clinton’s actions as inflammatory and dangerous. The narrative portrays Democrats as indoctrinating students, vilifying conservatives, and refusing to tone down rhetoric despite violent consequences. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Charlie Kirk Assassination The central focus is the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. It highlights how some individuals on social media and in academic or professional positions were accused of celebrating his death. Commentary draws sharp contrasts between free speech protections and the consequences of hateful or violent speech. First Amendment & Consequences The speakers emphasize that while the U.S. Constitution protects free speech from government prosecution, it does not shield individuals from personal or professional consequences. They compare celebratory speech about Kirk’s murder to other forms of offensive expression that might justifiably lead to disciplinary or employment consequences. Text Messages Between the Assassin and Partner We talk about the text exchanges between the shooter and a transgender partner. These messages are described as both incriminating (a clear confession) and disturbing, while also criticizing mainstream media outlets like ABC News for framing them in a more “romanticized” or “touching” light. Criticism of Media Coverage Strong criticism is directed at outlets like CNN, MSNBC, and ABC News for allegedly downplaying or misrepresenting the motives of the assassin. The speakers argue that the media deliberately avoids framing the crime as left-wing political violence tied to Antifa or transgender activism. Antifa and Terrorism Designation The latter portion shifts to broader political implications, particularly Senator Ted Cruz urging the FBI and Trump administration to designate Antifa as a terrorist organization. It discusses legislation (the “Stop Funders Act”) aimed at following the financial networks behind left-wing protest groups, riots, and activist organizations. It links Antifa and Black Lives Matter funding to foreign and domestic wealthy donors (e.g., George Soros). Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Bagram Air Base & National Security The piece opens with a claim that former President Donald Trump is seeking to regain control of the Bagram Air Base in Afghanistan from the Taliban. It emphasizes Trump’s argument that the base is strategically important since it is “an hour away” from where China allegedly produces nuclear weapons. The narrative frames this as a critical national security issue and criticizes the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan under President Biden. Diplomatic Background References are made to past U.S.-Taliban negotiations, including meetings involving a White House envoy. The article connects Trump’s comments to broader discussions of U.S.-Taliban relations and potential leverage the U.S. might still hold. Criticism of Democrats & Media Figures The second half shifts focus to Hillary Clinton and teachers’ union leader Randi Weingarten. It criticizes Clinton’s promotion of a book warning about authoritarianism and fascism, framing it as divisive rhetoric, especially in the aftermath of what the text calls the “assassination of Charlie Kirk.” The commentary portrays Democrats and progressive figures as responsible for dangerous rhetoric and cultural indoctrination in education.

Jimmy Kimmel’s Firing & FCC Involvement The hosts argue that Jimmy Kimmel was suspended/fired not just because of controversial remarks about Charlie Kirk’s assassination, but also because of poor ratings, declining revenue for ABC, and refusal to apologize. They dispute claims that it was “cancel culture,” instead framing it as a business decision coupled with consequences for spreading misinformation. The FCC’s possible involvement raises First Amendment concerns. While FCC Chair Brendan Carr suggested broadcasters must act in the “public interest” and hinted at consequences for Kimmel’s comments, Cruz and Ferguson strongly criticize the idea of government threats against speech. They warn that allowing the FCC to police political content would set a dangerous precedent, especially against conservatives in the future. Trump Designating ANTIFA a Terrorist Organization The second half of the discussion covers Senator Cruz questioning FBI Director Cash Betel about Antifa. Cruz urges following the money behind violent protests, pushing for the group’s designation as a terrorist organization. Shortly after, Trump announced Antifa would indeed be labeled a terrorist group. The hosts praise this move, calling Antifa a violent organization funded by radical donors (including foreign governments and wealthy left-leaning individuals). They stress a distinction between free speech (protected) and violent action (not protected). Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Part 1: Antifa Designation Announcement: Former President Donald Trump declared Antifa a major terrorist organization. Context: The declaration followed the reported assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, which Trump and allies framed as evidence of left-wing extremism. Key Points: Antifa is described as a loosely affiliated ideology, not a centralized group. Trump emphasized “following the money” to identify who funds Antifa-related activities. He suggested possible use of RICO laws to prosecute funders and agitators. The administration anticipated legal challenges from groups like the ACLU and SPLC, citing constitutional concerns (free speech, assembly, due process). Politically, the move was presented as a fight the White House was “happy to have,” despite opposition from Democrats. Part 2: Federal Reserve Interest Rate Cuts Background: Trump had been pushing the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates more aggressively, often criticizing Fed Chair Jerome Powell. Decision: The Fed cut rates by 0.25 percentage points, marking the first cut in Trump’s second term. Significance: The cut signals concern over a slowing job market and rising unemployment. It also shows the Fed balancing two pressures: supporting jobs while controlling inflation. Trump-aligned Fed members favored deeper cuts (0.5%). The decision benefits borrowers (credit cards, home equity loans), though it’s not seen as a complete fix for the economy. Framing in the podcast: The host portrays this as a major political and economic victory for Trump, arguing it validates his long-standing criticisms of Powell and the Fed.

Blame on Democrats & Media The podcast repeatedly accuses Democratic leaders—including President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, and Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker—of dehumanizing conservatives by comparing them to Nazis, fascists, or dictators. The media is accused of amplifying these messages, creating a climate where violence against conservatives is seen as justified. Use of Historical Analogies Heavy use of references to Nazi Germany, fascism, Hitler, Mussolini, etc. Suggests that Democrats use these analogies to instill fear and hatred in young people toward conservatives. Examples & Quotes Cites speeches, interviews, and tweets from Governor Pritzker and others, accusing them of equating Donald Trump and Republicans with Nazis or fascists. Mentions specific controversial statements, such as “Trump sympathized with Nazis” or “Trump wanted generals like Hitler had,” often framing them as lies or distortions. Link to Violence The episode claims this rhetoric has led directly to real-world violence, including riots, looting, unrest, and even the assassination attempt on Donald Trump. It emphasizes that young people, “the youngest generation,” are most influenced and most involved in political violence.     Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

CNN Debate (WATCH): Cruz defends his decision to appear on CNN, criticizing Collins for interrupting and for what he portrays as partisan framing. He argues against the idea that political violence is equally present on both sides of the spectrum. Media Narratives: The podcast accuses outlets like CNN, MSNBC, and ABC of dishonesty, especially in their coverage of motives behind the assassination. Cruz and Ferguson highlight what they view as selective reporting and propaganda. Released Text Messages: They discuss text exchanges between the accused killer and his partner, portraying them as a direct confession. They sharply criticize ABC News for characterizing these messages as “touching” or “romantic.” Contrasting Responses to Violence: Cruz draws comparisons between left-wing protests (e.g., George Floyd protests, Antifa, BLM) and right-wing responses, arguing conservatives respond with prayer and peace while leftists respond with riots and violence. Community & Advocacy: The episode also promotes the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews’ “Flags of Fellowship” campaign, encouraging solidarity with Israel and remembrance of victims of the October 2023 terror attack.

Warning Signs Ignored:The suspect allegedly showed multiple warning signs before the shooting, including becoming more political, distancing himself from coworkers during political discussions, and openly expressing intentions to harm Charlie Kirk. Friends, family, and even coworkers reportedly noticed this but may not have taken it seriously. The Shooting & Evidence:After firing the fatal shot, video footage shows the suspect escaping by jumping off a building. Investigators recovered forensic evidence from the scene, including DNA on a towel wrapped around the firearm, a screwdriver, and potentially on the rifle itself. These DNA samples matched the suspect, confirming his involvement. The Note & Motive:A note was reportedly left by the suspect, stating he had the opportunity to kill Kirk and intended to take it. Though the note was destroyed, forensic traces and interviews confirmed its existence and content. The motive is tied to political ideology, which investigators say "infected him and had taken over." Investigation Challenges:Law enforcement officials emphasized the need to determine whether people in the suspect’s circle knew about his intentions and ignored them, or dismissed them as jokes. Accountability for those who failed to act is being considered. Political & Legal Dimensions:The Utah governor, Spencer Cox, noted that the suspect had clear left-leaning political beliefs and expressed dislike for Kirk. The confirmation of forensic evidence and DNA ties the suspect directly to the crime, opening the possibility of the death penalty. Praise for Law Enforcement:The document also contains praise for the FBI, local authorities, and figures like Dan Bongino, Kash Patel, and Donald Trump for their roles in handling the case.

The assassination of Charlie Kirk They frame Kirk’s death as a political assassination, comparing it to historical killings of JFK, Bobby Kennedy, and Martin Luther King Jr. The hosts emphasize concerns about political violence, the dangers of polarization, and left-wing reactions online. They highlight messages of unity from unexpected voices on the left, such as Cenk Uygur, while contrasting that with those celebrating Kirk’s death. Persecution of Christians in Nigeria Cruz details violence by Boko Haram and ISIS-West Africa, citing statistics of tens of thousands of Christians killed and thousands of churches destroyed. He introduces the Nigeria Religious Freedom Accountability Act of 2025, which seeks to: Classify Nigeria as a “country of particular concern” for religious freedom. Keep Boko Haram and ISIS-West Africa labeled as terrorist groups. Sanction Nigerian officials complicit in persecution. The discussion connects this to broader issues of U.S. foreign policy, criticizing past administrations (especially Obama and Biden) for not doing enough to defend persecuted Christians. Tucker Carlson’s controversial statements Carlson’s remarks about offering condolences to Osama bin Laden’s family, questioning Hamas’s designation as a terrorist group, and sympathetic portrayals of Russia and Iran are strongly criticized. Cruz and Ferguson accuse Carlson of moral relativism, equating his views with those of progressive politicians like Ilhan Omar or Rashida Tlaib. They reaffirm that groups like Hamas, al-Qaeda, and ISIS are terrorist organizations, citing both U.S. and international designations as well as historical attacks.

1. Biden Autopen & Clemency Decisions Sources claim newly uncovered internal White House memos and emails suggest that during Joe Biden’s final year as president, some official decisions—particularly pardons and clemency actions—were not personally approved by him. Instead, approval was allegedly delegated to Vice President Kamala Harris and possibly others, with many documents signed by autopen rather than Biden himself. Specific examples include pardons for family members, Anthony Fauci, and General Mark Milley. It says only Hunter Biden’s pardon was hand-signed by Biden. Raises the question of whether these pardons and commutations are legally valid if Biden did not directly authorize them. 2. Criticism of Job Data Under Biden The second major focus is on employment numbers. The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) is accused of massively overestimating job creation between April 2024 and March 2025 by nearly 1.9 million jobs. The piece calls this a fraud-level revision, far beyond typical statistical error. It claims the overstatement was politically motivated to make the economy look better during Biden’s reelection campaign. 3. Trump Administration’s Response The commentary emphasizes that Donald Trump inherited a “massive mess” with falsified economic data. Trump reportedly fired BLS Commissioner Erica McEntarfer (appointed by Biden) after a weak July 2025 jobs report and replaced her with a Heritage Foundation economist. The White House under Trump frames these corrections as necessary to restore trust in federal statistics. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Biden Pardons & Autopen Controversy The discussion centers on claims that President Joe Biden improperly delegated or failed to personally authorize thousands of pardons and commutations at the end of his presidency. Cruz argues that under the Constitution, only the President can personally make pardon decisions, and if staffers used an autopen without Biden’s direct involvement, those pardons are “null and void.” The conversation highlights concerns about Biden’s alleged disengagement, potential misuse of authority by White House staff, and the legal battles that could arise if the Department of Justice revisits these pardons. Persecution of Christians in Nigeria Cruz introduces legislation addressing severe religious persecution in Nigeria, where extremist groups like Boko Haram and ISIS-West Africa have killed tens of thousands of Christians, attacked churches, and kidnapped priests. The proposed bill, the Nigeria Religious Freedom Accountability Act of 2025, would classify Nigeria as a “Country of Particular Concern,” impose sanctions on complicit Nigerian officials, and reinforce designations against jihadist groups. Cruz frames this as part of his long-standing advocacy for global religious freedom and draws parallels to past cases, such as Sudan’s imprisonment of Miriam Ibrahim for her Christian faith.

The “Autopen Pardon Scandal” House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer announced that the committee is wrapping up its investigation into President Joe Biden’s alleged use of the autopen to issue thousands of pardons. Records suggest Biden’s aides, including Chief of Staff Jeff Zients, authorized pardons using the autopen without Biden’s direct involvement. Critics, including Donald Trump and constitutional attorney Mark Smith (on Fox News), argue this raises questions about presidential authority, legitimacy of pardons, and executive power under Article II. Defenders claim the use of autopen is legal and Republicans are politicizing the issue. US Military Build-up in Puerto Rico Amid Venezuela Tensions Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Joint Chiefs Chairman Dan Kane made an unannounced visit to Puerto Rico. The visit coincided with rising US-Venezuela tensions following a US military strike on a Venezuelan cartel vessel. The Pentagon is considering Puerto Rico as a hub for counter-narcotics operations, deploying F-35 jets, Marines, and multiple warships to the Caribbean. Officials emphasize the move is not for regime change but to combat narco-terrorism and drug trafficking networks. Puerto Rico’s strategic location is highlighted as key for intercepting drug routes.

Migrant Children and Trafficking Allegations The episode claims that hundreds of thousands of unaccompanied minors who crossed the U.S.-Mexico border during the Biden administration were lost after being placed with unverified sponsors. It alleges that many children ended up trafficked, forced into sex slavery, debt bondage, or child labor, and that dozens died in tragic circumstances. Sources suggest the administration deliberately failed to vet sponsors (e.g., no DNA testing, poor record-keeping) to keep border operations flowing. Trump Administration’s Response Ben contrasts Biden’s approach with former President Trump’s, stating that Trump’s team has located about 23,000 of the missing children. It emphasizes new policies under Trump such as mandatory DNA testing, background checks, and sponsor verification. Chicago and Sanctuary Cities The podcast shifts to Chicago, portraying it as a focal point for problems tied to sanctuary city policies. It reports that Trump is preparing immigration enforcement operations in Illinois, while state and city officials oppose these measures, calling them illegal or authoritarian. Trump and allies frame their actions not as “war with cities,” but as a crackdown on “criminal cartels” and dangerous illegal immigrants. Media and Political Spin The narrative accuses mainstream media and Democratic leaders of misrepresenting Trump’s enforcement policies. It frames Trump as committed to public safety, while depicting Democratic officials as obstructing law enforcement and protecting criminals. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Alleged Targeting of Christians by the Biden Administration The discussion focuses on a task force created under former President Trump, chaired by Attorney General Pam Bondi, which claims to have uncovered numerous instances of anti-Christian bias within federal agencies during the Biden administration. The report accuses agencies like the Department of Defense, Department of Education, Department of Labor, and others of mishandling or denying religious exemptions, imposing large fines on Christian universities, targeting religious groups through the DOJ and FBI, and showing favoritism toward non-Christian religions. Cruz and Ferguson frame this as government “weaponization” against Christians, emphasizing violations of First Amendment rights and calling for accountability, firings, and possible prosecutions. Criticism of Tucker Carlson’s Recent Positions The second half shifts to sharp criticism of Tucker Carlson, arguing he has become increasingly extreme and “unrecognizable.” They cite his comments about offering condolences to Osama bin Laden’s family, questioning whether Hamas is a terrorist group, and sympathetic tones toward authoritarian leaders like Putin and the president of Iran. Cruz and Ferguson strongly denounce these stances as “bizarre,” “unhinged,” and morally wrong, stressing that groups like Hamas and leaders like bin Laden should unequivocally be condemned. They frame Carlson as betraying conservative principles and aligning with rhetoric from figures like Ilhan Omar or Rashida Tlaib, which they see as evidence of his spiral away from mainstream conservatism.

The Joe Biden Autopen Investigation Sources describe an ongoing House Oversight Committee investigation led by Rep. James Comer. The central allegation is that Biden may not have personally signed key documents (pardons, executive orders, etc.) during his presidency, with aides allegedly using an autopen (a device that replicates signatures). Several Biden staffers, including close aides and even the First Lady’s staff, have reportedly invoked the Fifth Amendment instead of testifying. Comer suggests this points to a larger cover-up about Biden’s mental fitness and who was actually in charge in the White House during his later months in office. Future testimony is expected from former White House officials such as Andrew Bates, Karine Jean-Pierre, and Jeff Zients. U.S. Military Escalation in the Caribbean and Venezuela The Trump administration is described as taking a hard stance against drug cartels and Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, labeling him a “narco-trafficker.” In late August and early September, the U.S. reportedly deployed 7–8 warships, a nuclear submarine, over 4,000 personnel, and surveillance aircraft to the Southern Caribbean. The official reasoning is to combat drug trafficking, but Venezuela accuses the U.S. of pursuing regime change under the guise of anti-drug operations. The U.S. has placed a $50 million bounty on Maduro, escalating tensions. Venezuelans opposed to Maduro are said to feel “quiet euphoria,” seeing Trump’s moves as supportive of their freedom struggle. Broader discussion includes fentanyl and cocaine trafficking, cartel violence, and U.S. strategies to designate cartels as terrorist organizations, enabling expanded military and intelligence action.

Criticism of JB Pritzker (Governor of Illinois):The speakers argue that Pritzker downplays violent crime in Chicago despite high murder rates. They compare his leadership to officials in Mexico who claim progress while cartels commit violence unchecked. Broader critique of Democrats:Democrats are portrayed as favoring criminals over victims, ignoring rising crime, and pushing policies that weaken law enforcement. The conversation frames them as ideologically extreme and out of touch with public safety concerns. Midterm election outlook (2025):The senator and host discuss Republican opportunities in upcoming elections. They note Democratic fundraising strength but also claim voters are increasingly frustrated with crime and safety issues, which could benefit Republicans. The “Clean DC Act”:The senator introduces legislation to roll back a 2022 D.C. law that reduced penalties for violent crimes. The bill is framed as a test of whether lawmakers side with “criminals or citizens.” Rumors about President Trump’s health:A viral social media claim suggested Trump was dead or incapacitated because he wasn’t seen for a few days. The speakers mock Democrats and the media for allegedly celebrating or hoping it was true. Trump himself is quoted dismissing it as “fake news.” Drug cartels in the U.S.:The conversation highlights a DEA operation in New England that arrested 171 members of the Sinaloa cartel. They emphasize the cartel’s national reach, its trafficking of fentanyl, and the dangers counterfeit pills pose to young people. The epidemic of fentanyl deaths is portrayed as a direct result of “Democratic open border policies.” Military and foreign policy against cartels:The senator describes U.S. military operations in the Caribbean and Central America targeting drug traffickers, including deploying stealth jets and naval ships.

Debate on the Source of Rights The episode opens with criticism of Democratic Senator Tim Kaine, who argued in a Senate hearing that constitutional rights come from the government rather than from God. Cruz frames this as a radical departure from America’s founding principles, citing the Declaration of Independence and Thomas Jefferson’s writings. The discussion emphasizes that if rights come from government, they can be taken away, whereas God-given rights are “unalienable.” Religion and the Democratic Party Cruz and Ferguson argue that the Democratic Party is increasingly hostile toward people of faith (Christian, Jewish, Catholic). They highlight responses from religious leaders, including Bishop Robert Barron, who strongly opposed Kaine’s remarks and defended the idea that rights come from God. Border Security and the Cartels The podcast shifts to the issue of border security and drug cartels, especially the Sinaloa cartel. They cite a DEA operation in New England that arrested 171 cartel members in one week, seizing fentanyl and counterfeit pills. Cruz and Ferguson warn about the danger of fentanyl-laced pills, especially for young people, describing it as a national epidemic and the leading cause of death among Americans aged 18–45. U.S. Government Action Against Cartels They discuss U.S. military and DEA efforts to combat cartels, including operations in Mexico, Venezuela, and the Caribbean. Cruz praises the government’s recent designation of cartels as terrorist organizations and the deployment of military assets to fight drug trafficking. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Public opinion on crime: The podcast highlights a poll suggesting Americans prefer Donald Trump’s approach to crime over Joe Biden’s, comparing Trump to Michael Jordan “towering” over Biden. Criticism of Democrats: The piece accuses Democrats of siding with criminals, minimizing crime in cities, and allowing illegal immigrants and even non-citizens to vote (with an example from Maine). Drug cartel activity: It emphasizes the reach of the Sinaloa cartel, citing DEA operations in New England that arrested 171 members, seized fentanyl and counterfeit pills, and raised alarms about the threat cartels pose nationwide. Media bias claim: It argues that national media avoids reporting cartel activity outside border states to downplay the issue. Youth and drugs: It warns of counterfeit pills (fentanyl, Adderall, Oxycodone look-alikes) that target young people online, stressing the DEA’s difficulty in distinguishing real from fake pills. Partisan divide: Sources contrast Trump’s aggressive law-and-order stance with Democrats’ resistance, using Adam Schiff’s comments about crime in D.C. as an example of alleged denial. Closing argument: The commentary concludes that Americans overwhelmingly want Trump’s law-and-order approach, portraying Democrats as obstructing crime reduction efforts.

Main Focus Florida, under Governor Ron DeSantis and the state Surgeon General, announced plans to eliminate all mandatory vaccination requirements, including those for children in public schools. This would make Florida the first U.S. state to fully withdraw vaccine mandates, representing a sharp departure from decades of public health policy. Arguments Presented Skepticism toward public health institutions: Ben argues that the CDC and medical authorities “lied” about COVID-19 measures (masks, distancing, vaccine effectiveness). Because of this, many Americans no longer trust these institutions. Parental Rights vs. Government Mandates: Florida’s decision is framed as empowering parents to make medical choices for their children rather than allowing the federal government to dictate them. Supporters view this as a matter of bodily autonomy, parental choice, and medical freedom. Criticism of the Opposition: Sources claim “liberals” and medical groups oppose the repeal because they want more government control. It portrays media outlets and health professionals as fearmongering about the risks of removing mandates. Counterpoints & Concerns Highlighted Medical Community Response: Organizations like the American Medical Association warn that removing vaccine mandates could undermine decades of progress and lead to outbreaks of preventable diseases (measles, polio, whooping cough). Public health experts stress the immense global and U.S. benefits of vaccines, citing millions of lives saved. Political & Public Debate: Florida Democrats and doctors argue the move poses a grave public health risk. There is emphasis on how outbreaks could affect schools and vulnerable groups.

Trump’s Direct Involvement The report repeatedly emphasizes that Trump personally ordered the strike. He posted about it on Truth Social and addressed it publicly in the Oval Office. He framed it as both a security measure and a show of strength. Symbolism and Messaging A video of the strike (aerial view of the boat exploding) was released, meant as a public warning. Officials, including Secretary of State Marco Rubio (in this narrative), reinforced the idea of a new, aggressive U.S. stance against cartels. International Reactions Mexico’s president dismissed the U.S. action, claiming no threat to America and stressing sovereignty. Venezuela’s leader is described as furious, partly because of a $50 million bounty on his head. Escalation Possibilities The Pentagon and CIA are reportedly preparing further strikes on drug labs and cartel strongholds. Commentators suggest drone strikes and broader operations could follow. Domestic Justification The narrative appeals to American frustration with drug trafficking and cartel-related violence. Commentators claim the public would support such aggressive actions. Risks and Counterpoints Sources acknowledge potential cartel retaliation inside the U.S., through asymmetric warfare. Despite this, it maintains that the U.S. military would overwhelm any response.

1. Venezuelan Narco-Terrorist Strike The hosts discuss a U.S. military strike ordered by former President Trump against a Venezuelan drug-smuggling boat. They describe it as decisive action against narcoterrorists, with 11 alleged gang members killed. The narrative frames Trump as strong and proactive compared to Biden, who they accuse of weakness on border security and cartels. 2. U.S.–Mexico Relations & Cartels Cruz recounts recent meetings with Mexican officials, pressing them to cooperate with the U.S. against cartels. He argues Mexican cartels should be designated as terrorist organizations, drawing comparisons to Middle Eastern terror groups. The conversation emphasizes deterrence through unpredictable and overwhelming force. 3. Domestic Crime in Washington, D.C. Cruz introduces the Clean DC Act, aiming to repeal a 2022 D.C. law that reduced penalties for violent crimes. The podcast presents crime statistics in D.C. (murder rates, carjackings, assaults) and blames Democratic leadership for rising violence. It positions Trump’s stance on law and order as both domestic and international. 4. “Trump Is Alive” Segment Responds to a viral social media rumor that Trump had died after a couple of days out of the public eye. Hosts ridicule Democrats and media figures who speculated about or even welcomed the rumor. Trump himself dismisses it in an interview, calling it fake news.

U.S. Military Deployment: The U.S. Navy has increased its presence in the Southern Caribbean with 7–8 warships (including cruisers, amphibious assault ships, and a nuclear submarine), along with 4,000+ personnel and surveillance aircraft. The mission is presented as a crackdown on drug cartels. Targeting Maduro: The U.S. government labels Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro a “narco-trafficker” and has raised the bounty for his capture to $50 million. His government is described as a “narco-state” producing large amounts of cocaine. Maduro’s Response: Maduro has mobilized troops, armed citizens, and accused the U.S. of using anti-drug rhetoric as a cover for regime change and “gunboat diplomacy.” He warns of a “constitutional republic in arms” if attacked. Public Reactions: Some Venezuelans, especially opposition members, express cautious optimism and even “silent euphoria” at U.S. pressure, though fear retaliation at home. Venezuelans abroad are more openly celebratory, praising Trump as a strong ally for democracy and regime change. Wider Context: The administration seeks to redefine drug cartels as terrorist organizations, allowing broader military and intelligence operations against them. Commentary contrasts Trump’s proactive measures with Biden’s presidency, citing fentanyl deaths and cartel-related violence as urgent crises. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Crime Data Manipulation in Washington, D.C. The piece alleges that the D.C. Metropolitan Police Department intentionally manipulated crime statistics to make the city appear safer than it actually is. A whistleblower reportedly informed the House Oversight Committee that crime reports were downgraded (e.g., stabbings and carjackings reclassified as lesser offenses). Representative James Comer (House Oversight Committee Chair) is leading the investigation. The Justice Department is said to be conducting its own criminal inquiry. The narrative ties this issue to claims that Democrats are downplaying crime while Republicans, alongside former President Trump, aim to take tougher measures. Political Framing of Crime and Law Enforcement Comer argues Democrats and “liberal media” are misleading the public by claiming crime is down, despite everyday experiences suggesting otherwise. He emphasizes a Republican agenda focused on “law and order,” contrasting it with Democrats’ alleged leniency (bail reform, light sentencing, etc.). The Oversight Committee plans to pursue legislation in coordination with Trump and the White House to combat crime. Biden “Autopen” Investigation The second half shifts focus to a separate probe into President Joe Biden’s alleged use of an autopen (a device that signs documents automatically). Comer and House Republicans are investigating whether Biden personally approved key documents like pardons and executive orders. Witness testimony suggested limited direct interaction with Biden, raising questions about his mental fitness and who was making executive decisions. Several aides invoked the Fifth Amendment when questioned, fueling suspicions of a cover-up. Comer claims this raises constitutional concerns about presidential authority in Biden’s final months.

1. Trip Recap & Foreign Relations El Salvador:Cruz praises President Nayib Bukele for drastically reducing homicide rates by aggressively targeting gangs like MS-13 and 18th Street. He contrasts El Salvador’s success with U.S. crime and immigration challenges. Panama:He toured the Panama Canal and highlighted U.S. concerns about China’s growing influence there, including ports, bridges, and tunnels near the canal. Cruz warns that China could disrupt canal traffic in a future conflict, threatening U.S. national and economic security. Mexico:Cruz met with senior Mexican officials (Foreign Secretary, Defense Secretary, Agriculture Secretary). He urged cooperation on border security and dismantling drug cartels, stressing Trump’s policies and a reported 99% drop in illegal border crossings. Mexican leaders, including President Claudia Sheinbaum, rejected U.S. military involvement, citing “sovereignty.” Cruz compared Mexico’s stance to El Salvador’s crackdown and Colombia’s Plan Colombia (early 2000s), arguing that success requires political will. He warned that if Mexico refuses, the U.S. may still act militarily against cartels under Trump’s leadership. 2. Domestic Politics & Crime Cruz and Ferguson shift focus to Illinois Governor JB Pritzker, criticizing him for downplaying crime in Chicago. Cruz cites statistics on Chicago’s murder rate (highest in the U.S. for 13 consecutive years) and argues Democrats prioritize criminals over victims. He frames Democrat policies in Illinois, California, and nationally as failures comparable to Mexico’s refusal to confront cartels. 3. Broader Political Commentary Cruz claims Democrats have become the “party of criminals,” siding with offenders over law-abiding citizens. He notes polling showing Americans are highly concerned about crime in cities. Discussion touches on 2025 midterm elections: Republicans may benefit from Democrat extremism. But Cruz worries about a GOP “enthusiasm gap,” citing a special election loss in Iowa. He stresses the need for Republican voter turnout despite Trump’s early policy “successes.” Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

1. Corporate “Woke” Branding Backlash The first section criticizes Cracker Barrel’s rebranding efforts under a new CEO in 2023. The piece compares the situation to Bud Light’s controversial marketing campaign.

Immigration and Electoral Strategy The final section accuses the Biden administration of deliberately increasing the population of undocumented immigrants in swing states between 2021 and 2023.

Supreme Court Ruling on DEI Grants The Supreme Court ruled 5–4 in favor of the Trump administration, allowing it to terminate $783 million in NIH diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) related grants. The decision centered on jurisdiction — the Court found that lawsuits over federal contracts must be filed in the Court of Federal Claims, not in district court. Justice Amy Coney Barrett cast the swing vote: siding with conservatives to block the payouts but with liberals on preventing reinstatement of the DEI guidance policy. Conservatives framed this as a victory against what they see as “ideological” grants, while critics warned of reduced research support. Corporate “Woke” Backlash — Cracker Barrel Example Discussion shifted to Cracker Barrel’s rebranding effort that downplayed its nostalgic Americana imagery. The company faced backlash, similar to Bud Light and Target controversies, leading to stock declines. After pressure from customers, investors, and even Donald Trump’s public comments, Cracker Barrel reversed course and reinstated its traditional branding. This was framed as an example of market-driven resistance to corporate progressivism. Senator’s Latin America Trip (El Salvador & Panama) The speaker described travels to El Salvador, highlighting improved safety under President Nayib Bukele. This led to “reverse migration,” with Salvadorans abroad expressing interest in returning. In Panama, focus was on the Panama Canal’s strategic importance and concerns about Chinese control over ports, infrastructure projects, and canal-adjacent facilities. The senator warned that in the event of a U.S.–China conflict, Chinese influence in Panama could threaten U.S. economic and military logistics. He urged Panamanian officials to push out Chinese companies and secure the canal with U.S.-aligned interests. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Economy Under Trump Claims that media and Democrats falsely predicted Trump’s policies would harm the economy. Presents government data revisions as proof that the economy was performing better than expected (GDP growth revised upward).

Contrasts Democrats’ past support for strong crime bills (1990s) with more recent calls for reforms like “defund the police.” Suggests Democrats prioritize criminals or political control over citizens’ safety. Framing Democrats vs. Trump Democrats are portrayed as: Wrong on predictions (economy, trade wars, tariffs). Soft on crime, apologetic for past tough policies. Resistant to Trump’s interventions despite their effectiveness. Trump is framed as: Delivering economic growth. Restoring safety in cities. Supported by diverse groups of Americans, including Black voters. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

1. El Salvador’s CECOT Mega-Prison for Gang Members Senator Cruz describes his recent visit to El Salvador, where he toured the CECOT (Centro de Confinamiento del Terrorismo) prison. The prison was built to house up to 40,000 of the country’s most dangerous gang members (MS-13, Barrio 18). Conditions: Cells hold 100 prisoners each, with bunk beds stacked four levels high. Prisoners are locked in cells 23 hours a day, with 1 hour allowed for exercise and religious instruction (both mandatory). No cellphones—blocked with jammers, with heavy fines for carriers if a call gets through. Monitored constantly by guards with machine guns and 24/7 lighting. Cruz compares it to U.S. prisons, noting it is much harsher and more controlled. He highlights the dramatic drop in El Salvador’s homicide rate (down ~98%), attributing it to President Bukele’s crackdown and mass incarceration of gang members. He even interviews an MS-13 member from Texas who admitted to murder in El Salvador and hinted at crimes in the U.S. The inmate expressed regret about his son possibly joining a gang but acknowledged that El Salvador’s new security situation made that less likely. 2. Panama Canal and Chinese Influence Cruz also traveled to Panama, where he toured the Panama Canal and met with government officials. He emphasizes Panama’s strategic importance to U.S. national security and commerce. Concerns raised: Chinese companies control key infrastructure near the canal, including ports, a bridge under construction, and a metro tunnel project. Cruz warns this could give China leverage to disrupt U.S. military and commercial shipping if conflict arises (e.g., over Taiwan). He pressed Panamanian officials to remove Chinese control and noted ongoing negotiations to transfer two Chinese-run ports to a U.S. consortium. He frames this as a matter of U.S.–Panama shared interest: Panama also risks economic and security harm if China can choke canal operations. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Summary of Events The shooter, identified as Robin Westman (born Robert Westman, 23 years old), carried out an attack at a Catholic church and school during mass. Weapons used: pistol, rifle, and shotgun. Casualties reported: 2 children (ages 8 and 10) killed, 17 others injured (14 children and 3 adults). The shooter allegedly took their own life inside the church. The FBI labeled the case as a hate crime and domestic terrorism targeting Catholics, though local police had not fully confirmed the motive. Shooter Background Legally changed name from Robert to Robin at age 17. Described as transgender by commentators in the text. Left behind videos, writings, and a manifesto with disturbing content: Admiration for previous mass shooters. Anti-Catholic, anti-Trump, and anti-Israel messages written on firearms and magazines (e.g., “Kill Donald Trump,” “Israel must fall”). Obsession with school shootings and extremist rhetoric. Mother previously worked at the same school; shooter graduated from it in 2017. Political & Media Reactions Trump administration officials and FBI leadership framed the shooting as an act of religiously motivated hate. Commentary in the document accuses Democrats and liberal media of downplaying the hate-crime angle and focusing instead on gun control. References to Amy Klobuchar, Jen Psaki, and the Minneapolis mayor, criticizing their calls for tighter gun laws and for allegedly ignoring the ideological/mental health aspects. The mayor’s emotional remarks about gun violence and children’s safety are quoted, but framed as anti-gun rhetoric. The commentary repeatedly emphasizes a pattern of transgender shooters and accuses mainstream media of suppressing that detail. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

1. U.S. Tariffs and Trump’s Economic Policy It frames Donald Trump’s tariffs as highly successful, claiming they could generate over $500 billion annually, possibly trending toward $1 trillion in revenue. Treasury Secretary Scott “Bis(s)ent” is quoted emphasizing month-to-month increases in customs duty revenues, suggesting tariffs could reduce the federal deficit by as much as $4 trillion over the next decade. The narrative positions tariffs not only as a financial benefit but also as a strategic tool for reshoring industries such as semiconductors, steel, and pharmaceuticals, reducing U.S. dependence on China and Taiwan. The text stresses that Trump’s administration sees economic independence as a national security priority, tying lessons from COVID-19 supply chain issues to the need for domestic production. 2. Cracker Barrel Branding Controversy The second half shifts focus to Cracker Barrel’s 2023–2025 rebrand, where the company modernized its logo, décor, and dropped its “Old Country Store” image. The commentary portrays this as a “woke” misstep, accusing the company of alienating its loyal, traditional customer base. Financial consequences are highlighted: a 10–17% stock drop and a $100 million loss in market value. After backlash and Trump’s public criticism, Cracker Barrel reverted to its original branding with “Uncle Herschel” and its traditional country store style. The text credits Trump with pressuring the company to reverse course, framing him as defending cultural tradition and consumer values. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Cruz’s Visit to El Salvador Cruz is in El Salvador meeting with President Nayib Bukele, government officials, U.S. military, and embassy staff. He describes dramatic changes in safety under Bukele’s leadership—highlighting the crackdown on gangs, mass arrests of MS-13 members, and construction of a mega-prison. Cruz emphasizes the murder rate dropping from the highest in the world (100 per 100,000 in 2015) to 1.9 per 100,000 in 2024, a 98% decrease. He contrasts Bukele’s tough-on-crime approach with U.S. cities that, in his view, are paralyzed by progressive policies. Cruz stresses that security improvements are also prompting reverse migration: Salvadorans in the U.S. are reportedly returning home. MS-13 and U.S. Politics They discuss Kamar Abrego Garcia, an MS-13 member from Maryland involved in human trafficking and domestic abuse, who is facing deportation. Cruz criticizes Democrats, particularly Senator Chris Van Hollen, for being sympathetic to such individuals instead of supporting law and order. This segment is framed as an example of Democrats prioritizing criminals over public safety. Cracker Barrel & “Go Woke, Go Broke” Cruz and Ferguson mock Cracker Barrel’s recent rebranding decisions, claiming the company abandoned its traditional customer base for “woke” marketing strategies. They compare the backlash to similar situations with Bud Light and Target, noting plummeting stock prices and customer revolt. Cruz highlights investor warnings that leadership ignored, framing the reversal as a victory for conservative consumer pushback. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

House GOP Probe House Republicans, led by Oversight Committee Chair James Comer, launched an investigation into alleged manipulation of Washington, D.C. crime data. Allegations claim Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) officials intentionally downgraded charges to make crime statistics appear lower. A whistleblower with knowledge of MPD operations confirmed the alleged manipulation. One commander, Michael Pulliam, was suspended over the incident, but the issue may span all seven patrol districts. Justice Department & Federal Probe The investigation follows the Justice Department announcing its own federal probe into D.C. crime statistics. Discrepancy: official reports say crime is at a 30-year low, but residents and whistleblowers say otherwise. Donald Trump’s Position Trump claims FBI crime stats are “fake” and is framing D.C. as a test case for federal intervention in U.S. cities. He threatened to send troops to Baltimore, raising concerns among local officials. Trump portrays himself as confronting “business as usual” in crime reporting and law enforcement. Cashless Bail Executive Order Trump signed an executive order to end cashless bail, starting in Washington, D.C. The order: Directs federal law enforcement to prosecute arrestees federally where possible. Seeks to prevent pretrial release without bail. Threatens to withhold or revoke federal funding from jurisdictions with cashless bail policies. Attorney General must identify such jurisdictions within 30 days. Political Reactions Democrats: Angry at Trump’s intervention. Argue cashless bail gives judges discretion to detain or release based on risk, not wealth. Say Trump is using the issue as a distraction from other policy failures (e.g., prices, economy). Trump Allies & Conservatives: Portray cashless bail as a failed liberal policy fueling crime. Cite cities like Chicago as examples of negative consequences. Miami’s mayor emphasized public safety as citizens’ top concern, criticizing revolving-door justice.

It highlights deportation statistics, claiming ICE is on pace to deport over 400,000 undocumented immigrants in a year. It describes increased funding, expanded detention centers, and use of charter planes as signs of effective enforcement.

1. Dunking on Gavin Newsom Ted Cruz responds to a tweet by Newsom blaming Trump for rising electricity prices. Cruz uses AI (Grok) to highlight that the states with the highest electricity rates are Democrat-led with strong renewable energy mandates. He argues that liberal policies, not Trump, are responsible for high energy costs. The discussion includes a critique of renewable energy mandates and infrastructure challenges in blue states. 2. Democrats’ “Forbidden Words” The think tank Third Way released a memo listing 45 words/phrases Democrats should avoid, claiming they alienate everyday Americans. Examples include: “privilege,” “birthing person,” “microaggression,” “cisgender,” “food insecurity,” and “environmental violence.” Cruz and Ferguson mock the list, comparing it to George Carlin’s “seven dirty words” and argue that the problem isn’t just language but ideology. 3. SCOTUS Victory for Trump on DEI Grants The Supreme Court ruled 5–4 in favor of the Trump administration, allowing it to cancel $783 million in NIH grants tied to DEI and gender ideology. The ruling was based on jurisdictional grounds—plaintiffs filed in the wrong court. Justice Amy Coney Barrett was the swing vote, siding with conservatives on the funding issue but not on reversing DEI guidance.

1. Clemency Controversy Involving Joe Biden Sources allege that in his final days in office, former President Joe Biden issued mass clemency orders using an autopen (an automated signature device). These clemency orders reportedly affected ~2,500 inmates, and were described by the White House as targeting nonviolent drug offenders. However, internal DOJ emails (particularly from Bradley Weinsheimer, a senior DOJ official) suggest: The language in the clemency warrants was vague and legally flawed. Some recipients were violent offenders, contradicting the White House’s public narrative. DOJ officials were confused and sought clarification from Biden, which they reportedly did not receive. 2. Examples of Alleged Violent Offenders The episode names individuals like Rushell Macintosh, Stephen Fowler, and Plays Anderson, claiming they committed violent crimes and were among those granted clemency. 3. Criticism of Biden’s Use of Autopen Biden defended the use of the autopen, saying he approved broad categories and left staff to apply them. The DOJ emails suggest uncertainty and disagreement within the administration about the legality and clarity of the orders. 4. Political Implications and Allegations The podcast connects this clemency issue to broader political themes: Allegations of DOJ politicization. Claims that Democrats are losing voter registration battles in 30 states. Accusations that Democrats are considering gerrymandering, amnesty, and counting undocumented immigrants to regain political ground. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

1. Crime Statistics and Political Manipulation in Washington, D.C. Main Claim: Former President Donald Trump accuses D.C. officials of deliberately manipulating crime statistics to make the city appear safer than it is. Supporting Details: A whistleblower (a former MPD sergeant) alleged that police leadership downgraded serious crimes to lesser offenses. The city settled her lawsuit quietly, which is presented as evidence of wrongdoing. Media outlets like The New York Times, Washington Post, and Politico are criticized for ignoring this whistleblower and presenting a narrative that crime is low. A poll cited from The Washington Post shows that 91% of D.C. residents believe crime is a problem, with Black and lower-income residents expressing the most concern. The commentary suggests that Democrats are resisting Trump’s crime crackdown to maintain control over urban areas. 2. Allegations of Political Bias by Google Main Claim: Google is accused of suppressing Republican fundraising emails by marking them as spam, while allowing Democratic emails to pass through. Supporting Details: A consulting firm, Targeted Victory, conducted tests showing Gmail flagged GOP emails with WinRed links but not Democratic ones with ActBlue links. A 2022 study from NC State University is cited, claiming Gmail flagged 59% more Republican emails as spam than Democratic ones. The memo from Targeted Victory warns that this behavior could unfairly influence elections by hindering Republican fundraising. Google denies wrongdoing, stating its filters apply equally to all senders and are based on user behavior. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Texas Democrats' Return Fled to avoid redistricting legislation. Faced legal pressure: potential arrest, fines, and threats of office vacancy. Ultimately returned, allowing the redistricting bill to proceed. Redistricting & Gerrymandering Cruz and Ferguson claim Democratic states like California, New York, Illinois, and Massachusetts are far more aggressive in gerrymandering than Republican states. They cite statistics showing disproportionate representation in Congress compared to actual vote percentages. Historical Context Cruz recounts his experience as Texas Solicitor General during a similar 2003 redistricting standoff. Legal precedent allows for forcible return of lawmakers to establish quorum. Criticism of Democratic Leaders Governors of Democrat-led states are accused of hypocrisy for criticizing Texas while benefiting from gerrymandered maps. Audio clips and quotes from figures like Governor Pritzker (IL) and Governor Hochul (NY) are used to highlight perceived contradictions. Beto O’Rourke’s Remarks A clip of Beto O’Rourke is played where he advocates for aggressive Democratic redistricting, which Cruz interprets as a call for partisan power grabs. Broader Political Commentary The hosts argue that Democrats are losing favor nationally due to unpopular policies and power-driven tactics.

Trump-Putin Summit on Ukraine War Former President Donald Trump has announced a major summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin, scheduled for August 15th in Alaska. The summit's goal is to negotiate an end to the war in Ukraine, with Trump hinting at possible territorial swaps. This would be the first U.S.-hosted summit with a Russian leader since 1988, and the first Trump-Putin face-to-face since 2019. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has expressed concern, emphasizing that Ukraine must be part of any peace deal and rejecting any territorial concessions. NATO and EU leaders also insist on Ukraine’s inclusion and oppose forced territorial changes. The White House has not ruled out a trilateral summit including Zelensky, but no formal invitation has been extended yet. Trump had previously set an August 8th deadline for Putin to agree to a ceasefire or face sanctions, which was not met. The meeting is portrayed as a legacy-defining moment for Trump, testing his ability to broker peace. FBI Shakeup and Accountability Cash Patel, reportedly now FBI Director, is said to be “cleaning house” at the FBI, removing officials involved in politically charged investigations. Dan Bongino, Deputy Director, and Patel emphasize defending FBI employees who acted appropriately. Brian Driscoll and Walter Giordina, involved in investigations against Trump allies, were among those forced out. The narrative suggests these removals are part of a broader effort to address politicization and corruption within the FBI. Miranda Devine, a Fox News contributor, supports the changes, citing long-standing scandals and political bias. Pam Bondi, Attorney General, has appointed Ed Martin as a special prosecutor to investigate Adam Schiff and Letitia James for alleged fraud. Grand juries are reportedly convened in Maryland and Virginia, with potential charges carrying up to 30 years in prison. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

The hosts argue this supports the idea that the “Russia hoax” was a politically motivated effort to undermine Donald Trump. 📚 Kamala Harris Critique The episode also critiques Kamala Harris’s appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert to promote her new book, 107 Days.

1. Congressional Probe into Autopen Pardons This section discusses a developing controversy involving: Senator Rand Paul raising concerns about the use of an autopen—a mechanical device used to sign documents—for issuing presidential pardons during the final months of President Joe Biden’s administration. Allegations that Anthony Fauci and Jill Biden (former First Lady) may be implicated in the probe, with questions about whether President Biden was mentally aware of the pardons issued. Claims that hundreds of pardons were signed mechanically, possibly without Biden’s direct knowledge. Testimonies suggest that staffers, including those connected to the First Lady, were involved in the process, and many invoked the Fifth Amendment. Hunter Biden’s pardon was reportedly signed by Biden himself, unlike others. Senator Paul suggests indicting Fauci to test the validity of his pardon in court. The central issue is whether autopen-signed pardons are legally valid if the President was unaware of them. 2. Historic Trade Deal Between the U.S. and European Union This part highlights a major international agreement announced by President Donald Trump: The European Union agreed to: Purchase $750 billion in U.S. energy. Invest an additional $600 billion in the U.S. economy. Open up all member countries to zero-tariff trade with the U.S. Buy hundreds of billions in U.S. military equipment. A 15% baseline tariff will be applied to European imports, including automobiles. Trump emphasized the deal as a win for American workers, manufacturers, and farmers, framing it as the “biggest deal ever made.” Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

🗳️ Democrats' Poll Numbers Plummeting A recent Wall Street Journal poll shows the Democratic Party's approval rating at its lowest in 35 years. Only 33% of voters view the party favorably, while 63% view it unfavorably. Cruz attributes this to the party being overtaken by extreme left-wing voices and unpopular stances on issues like: Open borders Defunding the police Support for controversial protests Gender and youth medical policies He warns Republicans not to become complacent despite favorable polling. 💰 Proposal to Save $1 Trillion in Federal Spending Cruz proposes ending the Federal Reserve’s practice of paying interest on bank reserves. This policy, introduced in 2008, cost taxpayers $168 billion in 2024 alone, with nearly half going to foreign banks. Cruz argues that: The Fed operated for nearly a century without paying interest on reserves. Ending this would encourage banks to lend more and support economic growth. It could also help lower interest rates and reduce the deficit. ♠️ Fixing Tax Laws for Professional Poker Players A provision in the “One Big Beautiful Bill” changed how gambling losses are deducted. Previously, players could deduct 100% of losses from winnings; now only 90% is deductible. This results in some players being taxed on income they didn’t actually earn. Cruz, along with bipartisan support, is pushing legislation to reverse this change, arguing it's unfair and could drive poker professionals out of the U.S. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

🔥 1. Hunter Biden’s Interview and Political Commentary The episode opens with a critical discussion of a recent, controversial interview with Hunter Biden, in which he allegedly expresses anger at Democratic elites and hints at a potential presidential run. Cruz and Ferguson mock the interview, describing it as a “meltdown” and using it to criticize the Democratic Party, portraying Hunter as emblematic of its perceived dysfunction. They highlight Hunter’s comments about George Clooney, David Axelrod, and Nancy Pelosi, and his inflammatory remarks about immigration and foreign policy, including a hypothetical threat to invade El Salvador. 💰 2. The Stop Funders Act Cruz introduces new legislation called the Stop Funders Act, aimed at targeting individuals and organizations that financially support violent riots. The bill proposes adding “rioting” as a predicate crime under the RICO Act, allowing prosecutors to pursue those funding organized violence, including protests linked to Antifa, BLM, and pro-illegal immigration movements. Cruz argues that many of these protests are not spontaneous but are funded by domestic and foreign entities, and that cutting off financial support is key to stopping them. 🚁 3. Drone Threats and National Security The final segment focuses on the growing threat of drones used by criminal cartels and terrorists. Cruz cites examples such as drones scouting a Trump rally and smuggling contraband into prisons, arguing that U.S. law enforcement lacks the authority and tools to counter these threats effectively.

📰 1. Biden and the Autopen Controversy The discussion opens with a deep dive into a legal and political controversy involving President Joe Biden’s use of an autopen to sign off on mass pardons. The Department of Justice's Office of Legal Counsel (OLC) had previously ruled that autopen use is valid only if the president personally makes the decision. The New York Times reported that Biden did not individually approve each pardon, raising questions about the validity of those pardons. The hosts argue that this could lead to legal challenges and potentially invalidate some pardons, especially if there’s no paper trail of Biden’s direct involvement. 🌊 2. Personal Story: Guadalupe River Flood Tragedy A first-person narrative recounts a devastating flood along the Guadalupe River in Texas. The story, written by Aaron Parsley, describes a family’s harrowing experience as their river house was swept away. The emotional account includes the death of a young child (Clay) and the survival of his sister (Rosemary) and other family members. It’s a powerful, emotional interlude that highlights the human cost of natural disasters and the resilience of survivors. 📺 3. Stephen Colbert and the Fall of Late Night Comedy The hosts discuss the cancellation of “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert”, framing it as a cultural shift. Colbert is criticized for being partisan, elitist, and out of touch with much of America. The commentary contrasts Colbert with other late-night hosts like Jimmy Fallon, who is portrayed more favorably. There’s also a mocking segment about Colbert’s pro-vaccine musical skits, which the hosts deride as sanctimonious and unfunny. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Jeffrey Epstein Scandal & Transparency: The speaker demands full transparency regarding the Epstein case, especially the release of documents and names involved. Emphasis is placed on protecting victims' identities while still exposing the truth. Frustration is expressed over the lack of accountability—only Ghislaine Maxwell has been jailed.

🔥 1. Epstein Files and Trump Controversy We open with a heated discussion about the renewed focus on the Jeffrey Epstein files, with calls for transparency. Senator Cruz outlines four principles for handling the Epstein case: Transparency – Release all information. Protect the victims – Especially minors in explicit materials. Release it all – No selective disclosure. Prosecute predators – Hold all abusers accountable. The media is accused of using the Epstein case to sow division within the MAGA movement, particularly targeting Trump allies like Pam Bondi, Kash Patel, and Dan Bongino. A Wall Street Journal article is criticized for allegedly publishing a fake letter from Trump to Epstein. Trump denies its authenticity and threatens legal action. 🏛️ 2. Congress Defunds NPR & PBS A major legislative update: Congress passed a bill to defund NPR and PBS, a long-standing conservative goal. Cruz and Ferguson argue that these outlets have become left-wing propaganda machines, citing examples of perceived bias and misuse of taxpayer funds. Senator Cruz praises the unity among Republicans in the Senate and House to push the measure through, despite internal resistance. 📺 3. Stephen Colbert and the Fall of Late-Night Comedy Cruz celebrates the cancellation of “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert”, framing it as a cultural victory for conservatives. Colbert is described as a partisan, elitist figure who alienated half the country with anti-Trump rhetoric and COVID-19 vaccine advocacy. Cruz reminisces about a time when late-night comedy was bipartisan and fun, contrasting it with what he sees as Colbert’s divisive tone. The hosts play clips mocking Colbert’s vaccine-themed musical segments and criticize the influence of pharmaceutical sponsorships. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

🖊️ 1. Investigation into the Use of the Presidential Autopen During Joe Biden’s Presidency The White House Counsel's Office has reportedly opened an investigation into the alleged misuse of the autopen to sign executive orders, pardons, and other official documents during Joe Biden’s presidency. The claim is that Biden may not have been cognitively fit to make presidential decisions and that unelected staffers may have used the autopen without his knowledge. Key figures mentioned: Caroline Levitt, Trump’s Press Secretary, who called Biden the “most incompetent and senile president.” Anthony Bernal, former chief of staff to the First Lady, and Dr. Kevin O’Connor, Biden’s physician, both of whom invoked the Fifth Amendment during congressional depositions. James Comer, Chair of the House Oversight Committee, leading the investigation. The narrative suggests a cover-up and raises questions about presidential authority and transparency. 🏥 2. Medicaid Benefits and Illegal Immigration in New York Texas Representative Wesley Hunt is demanding data from New York Governor Kathy Hochul on how many undocumented immigrants are receiving Medicaid benefits. Hunt argues that Section 1115 waivers may be used to circumvent federal restrictions, allowing undocumented immigrants to access benefits. The governor’s office responded by criticizing Hunt’s stance but did not directly answer the question about the number of undocumented recipients. Hunt cites a Fiscal Policy Institute study estimating 670,000 undocumented immigrants in New York, about 5% of the population. The commentary suggests that Democratic leadership is prioritizing benefits for undocumented immigrants over American citizens and calls for greater transparency.

1. Allegations Regarding President Joe Biden’s Use of the Autopen for Pardons The podcast claims that President Biden may not have been fully aware of what he was signing via autopen during his final days in office. It references a New York Times article and a forthcoming book titled Original Sin. Allegations include: Biden’s inner circle blocked him from campaign prep and briefings. Chief of Staff Jeff Zients approved the use of the autopen for multiple preemptive pardons, including for Anthony Fauci and General Mark Milley. The legitimacy of these pardons is questioned, with Donald Trump calling it a major scandal. The narrative suggests that Biden’s aides, not the President himself, made final decisions on pardons. 2. Proposed Legislation to Designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a Terrorist Organization Senator Ted Cruz is introducing the Muslim Brotherhood Terrorist Designation Act of 2025. The bill proposes a bottom-up approach to designation, differing from past efforts that failed due to the non-violent status of some Brotherhood branches. It urges Secretary of State Marco Rubio to: Catalog global branches of the Muslim Brotherhood. Designate those meeting terrorism criteria. The bill outlines three pathways for designation: Congressional action under the 1987 Anti-Terrorism Act. State Department designation. Designation as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist group. The legislation is supported by GOP senators and aligns with actions taken by countries like Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE. Cruz compares this effort to Trump’s 2017 designation of Iran’s IRGC as a terrorist group. The document includes Cruz’s direct statements, emphasizing the Brotherhood’s global reach, violent ideology, and alleged ties to groups like Hamas. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Designation of the Muslim Brotherhood as a Terrorist Organization Senator Cruz discusses his long-standing effort to designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist group. He outlines the organization's history, global reach, and alleged ties to terrorism. The conversation critiques past U.S. administrations, particularly the Obama and Biden administrations, for their handling of the Brotherhood. Cruz introduces a “modernized” version of his bill using a “bottom-up” approach to target specific violent branches first. IRS Ruling on Churches and Political Endorsements The IRS has agreed that churches and pastors can endorse political candidates without risking their tax-exempt status. This is framed as a major shift from the Johnson Amendment, which previously discouraged political speech from the pulpit. The discussion includes a personal anecdote from Cruz about defending pastors in Houston who were subpoenaed for their sermons. Biden Autopen Scandal The New York Times reported that President Biden used an autopen to sign pardons without personally reviewing each case. Cruz argues that this could render many of those pardons legally invalid under DOJ guidelines. The conversation speculates on the legal and political implications, including potential challenges to the pardons. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

1. Violence Against ICE Agents and Political Rhetoric Ben accuses Democratic politicians of inciting violence against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents. It cites a 700% increase in assaults on ICE agents and attributes this to inflammatory rhetoric from Democratic leaders. Specific incidents are mentioned, including a July 4th ambush near a Texas detention center where an ICE officer was shot.

The text also criticizes proposed legislation requiring ICE agents to wear visible IDs and not wear masks, arguing this endangers their safety. 2. Secret Service Failures During Trump Assassination Attempt The second half of the document discusses the assassination attempt on Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania. It reports that six Secret Service agents were suspended (10–45 days) due to security failures, including: Unsecured rooftops Missing radios Poor coordination with local law enforcement The shooter was allegedly spotted 10 minutes before Trump took the stage, but no action was taken.

It includes reactions from the public and officials, including the widow of a bystander who was killed, and a bipartisan task force that deemed the attack “preventable.” Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

A separate planned ambush at an ICE detention facility in Alvarado, Texas, led to 11 arrests and one officer being shot.

1. Allegations Regarding President Joe Biden's Health and Fitness for Office The first story centers on claims of a cover-up concerning President Biden's mental and physical health. It highlights a House Oversight Committee investigation, led by Representative James Comer, into whether Biden was mentally fit to serve. A key figure in the investigation is Dr. Kevin O'Connor, Biden’s former White House physician, who invoked the Fifth Amendment during questioning. Questions posed to Dr. O'Connor included whether he was ever told to lie about Biden’s health or believed Biden was unfit for office. He declined to answer both. The use of the White House autopen (a device used to sign documents) is cited as suspicious, with claims that Biden may not have been aware of what was being signed. The narrative suggests this could invalidate certain executive actions if Biden was incapacitated. 2. Threats Against Donald Trump and National Security Concerns The second story shifts to alleged Iranian threats against former President Donald Trump and other American figures. It references fatwas (Islamic legal rulings) calling for violence, reportedly issued by Iranian clerics. The organization United Against Nuclear Iran (UANI) is calling for sanctions against individuals and entities involved. There are concerns about Iranian sleeper cells potentially operating within the U.S., possibly entering through asylum loopholes or border security gaps. The commentary warns of the national security risks posed by these individuals, including the potential for future terrorist attacks. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Ceasefire Breach and Trump's Reaction A ceasefire agreement between Israel and Iran was violated just hours after it was enacted. Iran was accused of launching missiles at Israel, which Tehran denied. Israel responded with airstrikes. Trump expressed strong frustration with both nations, particularly criticizing Israel for launching a massive bombing campaign immediately after the deal was signed. He publicly stated, “I’m not happy with Israel,” and emphasized that both sides had violated the agreement. Trump’s Direct Intervention Trump issued a cease-and-desist message to Israel via Truth Social, warning them not to escalate further. He also spoke directly with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, urging restraint. Following the call, Israel reportedly held back from further military action. Domestic Security Concerns The document shifts focus to national security concerns in the U.S., particularly regarding Iranian nationals. ICE arrested 15 Iranian nationals, some with alleged ties to Hezbollah or the Iranian military. The report details several cases of Iranian immigrants with criminal histories or suspected terrorist affiliations. Trump and other officials criticized the Biden administration for allegedly allowing such individuals into the country. Political and Security Implications Trump used the situation to highlight what he described as failures of the previous administration in handling border security. The narrative ties foreign policy instability to domestic security threats, emphasizing the need for strict immigration enforcement. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Main Event: Former President Donald Trump announces a "complete and total ceasefire" between Israel and Iran after a 12-day war. The ceasefire is structured in phases: Iran begins first, followed by Israel, with a full cessation of hostilities within 24 hours. Key Developments: The conflict escalated after Israel struck Iranian nuclear sites, prompting a symbolic Iranian missile retaliation targeting a U.S. base in Qatar. Iran's response was calibrated and pre-warned, aiming to avoid full-scale war while maintaining domestic and international posture. Ben emphasizes that Iran's actions were measured, avoiding escalation like closing the Strait of Hormuz. Trump’s Framing: Trump refers to the conflict as the "Twelve Day War", drawing a parallel to the Six-Day War of 1967. He positions the ceasefire as a historic diplomatic victory, crediting his leadership and foreign policy strategy. Media Criticism: The episode is highly critical of mainstream media, especially CNN, accusing them of bias against Trump and hoping for his failure.

1. Military Strikes on Iran’s Nuclear Sites The episode opens by stating that Trump gave Iran a 60-day ultimatum to negotiate on its nuclear program, which Iran ignored. In response, the U.S. launched precision airstrikes on three major Iranian nuclear sites: Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan. Trump is quoted declaring the mission a “spectacular military success,” claiming the facilities were “completely and totally obliterated.” 2. Trump’s Address and Justification Trump’s speech emphasizes the need to stop Iran, described as the “world’s number one state sponsor of terror.” He references past U.S. casualties linked to Iran and vows not to allow Iran to develop nuclear weapons. He praises the U.S. military, Israeli cooperation, and his administration’s unity and secrecy in executing the mission. 3. Operational Details Commentary from Fox News’ Jennifer Griffin highlights the stealth and complexity of the operation. B-2 bombers, possibly flying from Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri, dropped 30,000-pound bunker-buster bombs. The operation was noted for its high level of secrecy and lack of leaks, which the author attributes to the strength of Trump’s administration. 4. Concerns About Retaliation and Border Security The piece shifts to concerns about potential Iranian retaliation, especially through sleeper cells in the U.S. It criticizes the Biden administration for allegedly allowing Iranian nationals into the U.S. via a “wide open border.” Former ICE Director Tom Homan is quoted expressing fears about national security vulnerabilities due to undocumented migrants. 5. Conclusion Ben ends with a strong endorsement of Trump’s leadership, crediting him with both securing the U.S. border and neutralizing Iran’s nuclear threat. It calls for vigilance, gratitude for the military, and continued prayers for national security. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

🔥 The Strike on Iran The narrative describes a coordinated U.S. and Israeli military operation targeting Iran’s nuclear infrastructure, particularly the Fordow facility, which is said to be deeply buried under a mountain. The U.S. contribution includes seven B-2 bombers dropping 14 bunker-buster bombs, supported by over 125 aircraft, including stealth fighters, refueling tankers, and surveillance planes. The operation is portrayed as a complete success with no American casualties, and it is claimed to have obliterated Iran’s nuclear enrichment capabilities. 🧨 Political Framing The discussion is heavily framed around conservative political ideology, praising Trump’s leadership and criticizing Democrats, the Biden administration, and international institutions like the United Nations. The hosts argue that Trump’s decisive action prevented Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons and protected both American and Israeli lives. ⚠️ Concerns About Retaliation The conversation shifts to potential Iranian retaliation, including: Missile attacks on Israeli civilians Terrorist attacks on U.S. troops in the Middle East Sleeper cell terrorism within the U.S., allegedly enabled by lax border security under President Biden 🧱 Border Security and Immigration A significant portion of the transcript focuses on illegal immigration, particularly the claim that 1,200 Iranian nationals were released into the U.S. under Biden. The hosts link this to a broader narrative of national security vulnerability and advocate for strict border enforcement. 🗣️ Criticism of the Left and International Community The podcast criticizes liberal commentators, trans activists, and international leaders for allegedly siding with Iran or downplaying the threat. The UN Secretary-General is mocked for calling for de-escalation, and the idea of relocating the UN to Tehran is sarcastically proposed. 🇺🇸 Trump’s Address The transcript includes a fictionalized presidential address by Trump, in which he: Declares the mission a success Warns Iran against further aggression Praises the U.S. military and Israel Frames the strike as a defense of American lives and values Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

1. Diplomatic Delay Over Military Action Trump is reportedly considering a two-week delay before deciding whether to strike Iran’s main nuclear site. This delay is framed as a strategic move to allow for diplomatic negotiations, particularly involving European powers (UK, France, Germany) and Iran in Geneva. The White House, through Press Secretary Caroline Levitt, emphasizes that this pause is due to a “substantial chance of negotiations.” 2. Strategic and Political Framing The episode defends Trump’s decision as responsible leadership, not weakness. It highlights that Trump had previously given Iran a 60-day window to negotiate, and military action began on day 61. The delay is also seen as aligning with Trump’s campaign promise to avoid new wars. 3. European and Israeli Involvement The European Union is taking a lead in diplomacy, with the U.S. supporting from the sidelines. Israel continues its military operations against Iranian targets, and the delay gives Israel more time to act independently. 4. Iranian Internal Instability The exiled Crown Prince of Iran claims the Islamic Republic is collapsing. He urges Iranians to rise up and promises a democratic government within 100 days of the regime’s fall. The narrative suggests that Iran’s leadership is in disarray, with the Supreme Leader allegedly in hiding. 5. Broader Implications The commentary suggests that diplomacy is a preferable path and that the current U.S. strategy is a calculated pivot from brinkmanship to negotiation. It also implies that the Iranian regime is vulnerable and that international pressure, combined with internal dissent, could lead to significant change.

The episode provides a detailed account of rapidly escalating tensions between Iran, Israel, and the United States, marked by strong public statements and military posturing. Former President Donald Trump has declared a firm stance against Iran’s nuclear ambitions, repeatedly stating that Iran “cannot have a nuclear weapon” and emphasizing that the U.S. does not seek a long-term war, but will act decisively if necessary. Trump has reportedly approved attack plans involving U.S. airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, with Israel already initiating strikes. The Ayatollah of Iran has gone into hiding, while Iranian proxies threaten retaliation against American interests. Trump, working closely with military leadership and allies such as Pakistan, has indicated that a military response is imminent unless Iran surrenders its nuclear program within 48 hours. Amid rising tensions, Iranian leaders remain defiant, warning of catastrophic consequences if the U.S. joins the conflict. Meanwhile, bipartisan political voices, including Democrat Senator John Fetterman, have expressed support for direct action against Iran’s leadership. Public opinion appears to back Trump’s position overwhelmingly, with polls showing high support across party lines for preventing Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons—even if it involves military strikes. The report concludes by noting that support within the Republican base remains strong and unified, despite claims of internal division. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

1. Terror Attack in Boulder, Colorado Incident Overview: A violent attack occurred during a peaceful pro-Israel demonstration in Boulder, Colorado, where Molotov cocktails were thrown at elderly Jewish participants, injuring five people—two seriously. Suspect Details: The alleged attacker is identified as an Egyptian national who overstayed a visa and was in the U.S. illegally. He had reportedly received work authorization under the Biden administration. Political Commentary: Cruz and Ferguson frame the attack as part of a broader trend of rising antisemitic violence in the U.S., which they attribute to radical leftist ideologies and lax immigration policies. They criticize the media and local authorities for downplaying the incident and praise the FBI for labeling it a targeted terror attack. Broader Implications: The hosts argue that this attack is part of a growing wave of anti-Israel and anti-American sentiment, likening it to an "intifada" on U.S. soil. They express concern about national security risks stemming from open border policies.   2. Ukraine’s Drone Strike on Russian Bombers Operation Details: Ukraine reportedly executed a sophisticated drone strike, dubbed “Spiderweb,” targeting four Russian air bases and destroying or damaging 41 strategic bombers. The drones were hidden in wooden sheds transported near the bases and launched remotely. Strategic Impact: The attack is described as a major tactical success, potentially causing over $2 billion in damage and hitting 34% of Russia’s strategic cruise missile carriers. Context and Reactions: The strike was in response to a large-scale Russian drone and missile attack. Cruz emphasizes Ukraine’s resilience and ingenuity, contrasting it with early U.S. intelligence assessments that underestimated Ukraine’s capabilities. Geopolitical Outlook: Cruz suggests the war may end in 2025, possibly due to waning U.S. financial support. He advocates for a negotiated settlement that results in a clear loss for Russia, while expressing skepticism about both Putin’s and Zelensky’s willingness to compromise.

Nationwide Injunctions: The core issue is whether district court judges have the authority to issue rulings that apply nationwide, effectively halting presidential actions across the entire country. The concern is that this practice undermines the judicial process and centralizes too much power in individual judges. Amicus Brief: McCuskey discusses an amicus curiae ("friend of the court") brief filed by West Virginia and the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ). The brief argues that nationwide injunctions are unconstitutional under Article III and that proper legal procedures (like class actions under Rule 23) should be followed instead. Judicial Forum Shopping: The conversation highlights the tactic of choosing ideologically favorable courts to challenge federal actions, which both parties have used. McCuskey warns that this undermines public confidence in judicial impartiality. Historical and Constitutional Context: The Supreme Court justices reportedly asked about the historical roots of Article III and the British legal traditions that influenced the U.S. judiciary. The discussion emphasizes the importance of adhering to constitutional processes rather than bending rules for political expediency. Potential Outcomes: Victory: A ruling that district courts cannot issue nationwide injunctions. Partial Victory: A ruling that limits such injunctions with strict criteria. Loss: A ruling affirming the legality of nationwide injunctions. Timing and Urgency: The case was heard on an emergency basis, and a decision is expected within weeks, indicating its urgency and significance. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Political Strategy: Cruz detailed a multi-year political campaign, including endorsing primary challengers against anti-school choice Republicans, to build legislative support. He emphasized that this was not a partisan issue but a geographic and institutional battle, especially in rural areas where public schools are major employers. Federal Push: Cruz is advocating for a federal school choice initiative through budget reconciliation, which would allow passage with only Republican votes. The proposal includes $10 billion annually in federal tax credits for donations to scholarship-granting organizations, aiming to replicate Texas’s success on a national scale. ☢️ Stopping a Nuclear Iran Key Points: Opposition to Iran Nuclear Deal: Cruz strongly opposes any new nuclear deal with Iran, citing the failures of the Obama-era agreement and the dangers of appeasement. He supports President Trump’s red line: Iran must fully dismantle its nuclear program, including shutting down centrifuges. National Security Threat: Cruz argues that Iran, under the Ayatollah, is a direct threat to the U.S. and Israel, citing attempts to assassinate U.S. officials and support for terrorist groups like Hamas and Hezbollah. Policy Contrast: He contrasts the “maximum pressure” strategy under Trump—which included strict sanctions and oil embargoes—with the “appeasement” approach of the Biden administration, which he claims enabled Iran to rebuild its economy and fund terrorism. Call to Action: Cruz emphasizes the need for firm U.S. policy and warns against trusting Iran, advocating for either diplomatic dismantlement or, if necessary, military action to neutralize the threat.

Transgender Military Ban: The Supreme Court allowed President Trump to exclude openly transgender individuals from the military by lifting a nationwide injunction blocking the policy. The Trump administration argued that stalling the policy could hinder US military readiness. The policy prioritizes military excellence and readiness over diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). Immigration Enforcement: The Trump administration announced an escalation in immigration enforcement, targeting sanctuary cities. ICE agents were to increase their presence in these areas, focusing on work site enforcement if local jurisdictions resisted cooperation. This approach led to fear among undocumented immigrants, impacting cultural events like Cinco de Mayo celebrations. CDC Infection Control Committee: The Trump administration terminated the CDC's Infection Control Committee, which issued guidelines for preventing the spread of infectious diseases in healthcare facilities. The termination was part of a broader effort to reduce the federal workforce.

Supreme Court Decision on Transgender Military Ban: The Supreme Court allowed President Trump's ban on transgender individuals serving in the military to go into effect with a 6-3 decision. This policy bars individuals with gender dysphoria or those who have undergone gender transition from serving. The decision was seen as a victory for Trump, emphasizing a focus on military readiness and cohesion over social experiments. We emphasize that the military's primary role is to defend the country, not to serve as a platform for social issues. USAID Corruption: The podcast discusses a case of corruption involving a USAID official who steered contracts to a friend in exchange for secret payments. The official, Matthew Zahui, refused to allow auditors access to financial records, which raised suspicions. It was later discovered that he had directed contracts worth hundreds of thousands of dollars to a friend's company, which then made payments to his personal bank account. We highlight the lack of accountability and the need for serious investigations and prosecutions in such cases. Defunding NPR: The podcast supports President Trump's efforts to defund NPR (National Public Radio), arguing that it is a partisan propaganda outlet. It provides examples of NPR's content that the authors find objectionable, such as stories on cannibalism, criticisms of the Declaration of Independence, and coverage of LGBTQ+ issues. We also argue that taxpayer money should not fund media outlets that promote a radical agenda. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Executive Order on Gain of Function Research: President Trump issued an executive order restricting federal funding for gain of function research, which involves experimenting with viruses and pathogens that could potentially trigger a pandemic. The order aims to prevent US tax dollars from funding such research in countries like China and Iran, and strengthens oversight mechanisms to ensure biomedical research is conducted safely. The controversy around gain of function research became prominent during the COVID-19 pandemic, with theories suggesting the virus might have originated from the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Self-Deportation Program: The Trump administration introduced a program offering $1,000 and travel assistance to undocumented immigrants who voluntarily leave the United States.

Trade Negotiations: We mention ongoing trade negotiations between the US and Canada, following Canada's federal elections. President Trump is also engaging in trade talks with China, aiming to address tariffs and improve trade relations.

Media Coverage of Donald Trump: Ben discusses two major instances where the media allegedly misrepresented Donald Trump. One involved his attire at Pope Francis's funeral, where he wore a blue suit while others wore black.

The second instance involved speculation about Trump's weight loss, with CNN suggesting there might be a secret or cover-up behind it. Chuck Schumer's Senate Speech: We criticize a speech by Chuck Schumer, suggesting it could have been written by the Chinese Communist Party.

Supreme Court Ruling: The Supreme Court issued an order blocking the deportation of Venezuelan illegal immigrants under an 18th-century law. Justice Alito and Justice Thomas dissented, criticizing the decision as hasty and legally questionable.

The decision was seen as a significant roadblock, with concerns about its impact on future immigration policies.

The process was compared to emergency appeals in death penalty cases, where last-minute filings can lead to rushed decisions.

Governor Hobbs opposed the bill, stating it was wrong to force state and local officials to take orders from Washington.

Cash for Exit Trump's Deportation Plan President Donald Trump proposed a new plan to pay illegal immigrants to self-deport from the United States. The plan aims to make the deportation process comfortable and incentivize illegal immigrants to leave voluntarily. Trump suggested providing stipends or money and plane tickets to those willing to self-deport. The administration hopes this approach will help reduce the number of illegal immigrants competing for jobs and housing in the U.S. Trump's immigration aide, Steven Miller, emphasized the need to remove the estimated 15 million illegal immigrants who entered during Joe Biden's presidency. The plan also includes reviving laws requiring migrants to register with the government, canceling visas, and empowering local law enforcement to arrest illegal immigrants.

The story highlights the emotional toll on families affected by crimes committed by illegal immigrants and underscores the importance of Trump's deportation plan in preventing such tragedies. The EPA Fights Back EPA Administrator Lee Zelden criticized the Biden administration's management of the $20 billion Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund (GGRF), likening it to throwing gold bars off the Titanic. Zelden revealed that the EPA's annual budget is about $10 billion, but in 2024, the agency spent over $60 billion, much of it from the Inflation Reduction Act. He uncovered waste, fraud, and abuse in the allocation of funds, including a case where a Stacy Abrams-linked NGO received $2 billion despite having only $100 in 2023. Zelden emphasized the need for enhanced oversight and reallocation of funds to ensure the EPA fulfills its actual job instead of being a radical organization.

Deportation of Venezuelan Gang Members: The Supreme Court lifted a judge's order blocking the deportation of suspected Venezuelan gang members to a prison in El Salvador. The Trump administration used the Alien Enemies Act, an 18th-century law, to classify these gang members as part of a hostile government. The Supreme Court ruled 5-4 that challenges to deportation must be filed as habeas corpus petitions in the location where the individuals are detained, not as class actions in D.C. Cancellation of Teacher Training Grants: The Supreme Court upheld the cancellation of $600 million in teacher training grants, with $65 million yet to be distributed. The court ruled 5-4 that claims against federal money should be brought in the Court of Federal Claims. This decision was seen as a technical but significant victory against district judges trying to block the Trump administration's agenda. Reinstatement of Federal Employees: The Supreme Court reversed a district judge's order to reinstate 16,000 federal employees fired by the Trump administration. The court ruled 7-2 that the administration had followed proper procedures for the dismissals. This decision was another victory against district judges attempting to halt the Trump administration's actions. Issuance of Social Security Numbers: Nearly 4 million non-citizens were issued Social Security numbers during Joe Biden's presidency.

Supreme Court Ruling on Deportations: The Supreme Court lifted a block from a US District Judge, allowing the Trump administration to deport suspected illegal alien gang members under the 1798 Alien Enemies Act. The ruling was described as narrow, focusing on the proper venue for the cases rather than the administration's use of the law. The decision was a 5-4 split, with the Supreme Court finding that the migrants had improperly challenged their deportations in Washington, D.C., instead of Texas. Attorney General Pam Bondi described the Supreme Court decision as a landmark victory for the rule of law. Bondi emphasized that an activist judge in Washington, D.C., does not have the jurisdiction to control President Trump's authority to conduct foreign policy.  Trump's Stance on Tariffs: Senator James Lankford commented on the media's portrayal of Republican support for Trump's tariff policies. He suggested that the real challenge to Trump's tariffs would come from the courts, not Congress. The Senate narrowly approved a tariff control bill, but it was unlikely to pass in the House. Trump reiterated his commitment to fair trade deals and substantial tariffs on countries like Japan and China. He emphasized the need for reciprocal trade agreements and criticized previous administrations for putting America last. Direct Talks with Iran: Trump announced direct talks with Iran over their nuclear weapons program. Iranian-backed militias in Iraq expressed willingness to disarm to avoid conflict with the US.
