| Three times a week we do our podcast, Verdict with Ted Cruz. | |
| Nationwide, we have millions of listeners. | |
| Every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, we break down the news and bring you behind the scenes, inside the White House, inside the Senate, inside the United States Supreme Court. | |
| And we cover the stories that you're not getting anywhere else. | |
| We arm you with the facts to be able to know and advocate for the truth with your friends and family. | |
| So Down verdict with Ted Cruz now, wherever you get your podcasts. | |
| An accident happened. | |
| Should it happen? | |
| No. | |
| Will it ever likely happen again? | |
| No. | |
| And what really is frustrating in all of this is we're not talking about the systemic institutional uh policy danger of this joint signal text message, which is an encrypted app that took place that somehow included Jeffrey Goldberg of the Atlantic on it. | |
| And the media would act as though this is the biggest national security disaster in the history of the country. | |
| is not. | |
| There was no classified information in the discussion. | |
| The mission was a complete success. | |
| And these are the same people that are, you know, feigning their phony, fraudulent, fake, you know, outrage that just sat back and watched and did nothing. | |
| Covered nothing as it relates to the single biggest national security debacle in the history of our country, which was Joe and Kamlo's wide open borders that allowed in known terrorists, murderers, rapists, cartel members, gang members, drug dealers, and even worse, even though we saw all the video confirming it was all true. | |
| They just flat out lied about the issue for four years to the American people. | |
| That was a clear and present danger to our country. | |
| Just as they lied about the president of the United States and his very steep cognitive decline. | |
| Everybody knew about it, and they wouldn't tell us the truth, just like they lied about the economy. | |
| And now all of a sudden they found it's Donald Trump, it's his team. | |
| Now we're supposed to believe that these very same people actually give a damn about national security. | |
| Uh no, they don't. | |
| Because if they did, they wouldn't have allowed what happened over the last four years to happen. | |
| Anyway, the president is meeting uh with his ambassadors, and uh it just started. | |
| We're gonna go to the beginning of this. | |
| He addresses this at the top. | |
| Let's go to it. | |
| Going to these two uh public uh news outlets. | |
| If this if they're successful, I know Senator Kennedy has backed it, Marjorie Taylor Green, Congress has backed it. | |
| Would you be interested in defunding and taking away taxpayer dollars to MPR and PBS? | |
| Well, I would love to do that. | |
| I think it's very unfair. | |
| It's been very biased. | |
| The whole group, I mean, a whole group of them. | |
| And uh frankly, there's plenty. | |
| Look at all the media you have right now. | |
| There's plenty of coverage. | |
| I was from a different age, and they spend more money than any other network of its type uh ever conceived. | |
| So the kind of money that's being wasted, and it's a very biased view, you know that better than anybody. | |
| And uh I'd be honored to see it and we're well covered. | |
| Look at all the people that we have here today. | |
| We're well covered, and we don't need it, and it's a waste of money. | |
| Especially, I don't even know what Doge's recommendation is. | |
| I assume their recommendation is to close them up. | |
| Well, after they hear all the testimony, I think they're gonna make a decision relatively sooner than later. | |
| Yeah, uh, but we'll see what that's. | |
| I can imagine I can't imagine that they wouldn't because they have found so much waste, fraud, And abuse uh hundreds of billions of dollars and just waste fraud abuse. | |
| You heard yesterday some of the new things that were found. | |
| 22 billion just in environment. | |
| You know, if you had 22 million, Warren, it would be nice, but 22 billion put into environmental accounts. | |
| One was two billion into one account, Stacey Abrams, where they had a hundred dollars in the account, and just before I came in, they put two billion dollars. | |
| And uh you guys are looking to you mean two million or maybe two hundred thousand, no, two billion dollars were put in the account. | |
| What do you think of that, Mike? | |
| Do you think that's a straight deal? | |
| Two billion? | |
| Just write me the checklist of president of Israel. | |
| It's a horrible thing. | |
| And we have to we have so many of those things. | |
| So they've done an incredible job. | |
| And the country wants to hear it. | |
| Uh I think Doge is actually very popular because of what's happening. | |
| They're hearing about all of these scams and and for big, big money, tremendous amount. | |
| And when you add it up, uh just hundreds of billions of dollars being wasted, and much of it's fraud. | |
| You know, we we talk about waste, and it is waste and abuse, but a lot of it's fraudulent. | |
| Yeah, go ahead. | |
| Brian, uh, I just want to follow up on that. | |
| If Planned Parenthood is defunded, uh, would you look into the harvesting of baby organs that they've done throughout the years uh and and maybe go after some criminal prosecution on that? | |
| Well, I think you're talking about a subject that is a heated subject, and uh we'll look into it. | |
| We're gonna look into everything, but uh that's uh certainly a subject that's been debated for a long time, and we will look into it, yeah. | |
| Mr. President, a lot some senators have expressed hope that the White House will support a rescission package to codify some of the doge cuts into law. | |
| Where does the white house stand on that? | |
| And are you making progress? | |
| Which package? | |
| You know what? | |
| It would be great. | |
| I think we're gonna do that. | |
| I think they're gonna do it. | |
| I think we're also going to be codifying a lot of the uh executive orders that we've done, which have been very popular. | |
| And we're looking at one, I will tell you right now, that I think perhaps will be controversial, but not with the people, and that's sanctuary cities. | |
| We're gonna end sanctuary cities for uh some of these jurisdictions that uh aren't cooperating with the law enforcement. | |
| Uh they're guarding criminals, they're uh taking the rights away from the citizens of this state and their city, and we're gonna be ending sanctuary cities if we find it uh necessary to do in certain major areas, and we may just end the entire thing all together because it's just a way of protecting criminals, and nobody else is benefited by that. | |
| And for some reason, Democrats uh want to keep and they want to shield criminals from being sent back to their countries or being sent to prison. | |
| And in the meantime, the crime rate has gone through the roof under Biden. | |
| It was through the roof. | |
| It's starting to come down, but we're taking a lot of people out of here, so we may uh be presenting you very shortly with a executive order ending sanctuary cities. | |
| Mr. President, are you gonna change any of the practices that your national security officials use after a reporter was inadvertently added to a group chat about attacks on Yemen? | |
| Well, I think it's uh a question I've been asked now, and I've given it a few answers, and they've all been the same. | |
| We have an amazing group. | |
| Our national security now is stronger than it's ever been. | |
| We have uh had a very, very successful, numerous attacks on that area. | |
| These are people that shoot down ships, not only our ships, ships all over the world, they're shooting down right out of the water and uh damaging them badly, or they're going down. | |
| They're also shooting anything that happens to be flying in the area. | |
| We hit them very, very hard. | |
| Uh there was no classified information as I understand it. | |
| Uh they used a uh an uh app, if you want to call it an app that a lot of people use, a lot of people in government use, a lot of people in the media use. | |
| And I think uh I'll ask Mike. | |
| Mike is here. | |
| Do you want to respond to that, please? | |
| Yes, Mr. President. | |
| You asked about lessons. | |
| I think there's a lot of the lessons, there's a lot of journalists in this city who have made big names for themselves, making up lies about uh this president, whether it's the Russia hoax or making up lies about gold star families, and this one in particular, I've never met, don't know, never communicated with, and we are uh and we are looking into and reviewing how the heck he got into this room. | |
| But I'll tell you what, the world owes President Trump a favor. | |
| Under Biden, global shipping was shut down. | |
| Pinprick attacks, months between them, our destroyers being fired upon dozens of times. | |
| President Trump took decisive active action with his national security team, took out the head missileer, knocked out missiles, knocked out headquarters, knocked out communication sites. | |
| And for once, as we hear as you all hear from every one of our allies, thank God for American leadership again. | |
| Thank God for American strength. | |
| And we had a national security team that was coordinating uh these efforts as Director Ratcliffe testified today. | |
| Uh his first day on the job, he was introduced to this app on his government uh systems at the CIA and at the State Department and otherwise. | |
| So look, this journalist, Mr. President, uh wants the world talking about more hoaxes uh and this kind of nonsense rather than the freedom uh that you're enabling, and a key part of our sovereignty is open sealing and knocking the crap out of terrorists, which is exactly what your team and Pete Hagsta, a good friend and fellow veteran, is leading the charge on, and it's an option. | |
| Very, very successful. | |
| We had a very, very successful evening, and we've had uh numerous successful evenings and days in that area. | |
| The Hoodies are uh absolutely on the run. | |
| The worst of them has been uh killed. | |
| Uh this should have been done a long time ago by Biden, but Biden was an incompetent president, he couldn't do anything, he wouldn't he didn't know where he was going. | |
| He had no clue. | |
| This guy had no clue. | |
| This should have been done a long time ago as they uh shoot missiles at ships, randomly shoot missiles at ships, and uh and they make their own missiles. | |
| You know, this is not an incompetent group of people. | |
| They make their own missiles, they get the missiles also from Iran. | |
| Uh it's an offshoot of Iran, another offshoot. | |
| You have Hamas, you have Hezbollah, you have the Hoodis, you got a lot of stuff going on with Iran. | |
| And uh, we sent a letter to Iran. | |
| You're gonna have to be uh speaking to us one way or the other pretty soon because we can't let this happen. | |
| But all right, so that was the president with his ambassadors at a meeting at the White House, and he just answered the question uh over the signal app, which is an encrypted application that is often used by government officials and people in the media, etc. | |
| etc. | |
| I'm not convinced it's as secure as everybody thinks, but that's neither here nor there. | |
| Um and if you just follow the media, they have just ret they revert to form. | |
| All they know is to just hyperventilate over you know anything that Donald Trump says or does. | |
| Are they focusing on the fact that there's no classified information? | |
| No. | |
| Are they focusing on the mission success? | |
| No. | |
| Are they focusing on the fact that Biden allowed the Hooties pretty much to control international waterways and fire at American ships? | |
| No. | |
| Uh, they focused on the fact that the real the biggest that they ignored the biggest single national security threat, self-induced national security threat in the history of our country with open borders. | |
| No. | |
| Uh they ignored that issue. | |
| They ran cover for the president, a clear and present danger to the country. | |
| You know, they I mean, you know, think of the Democratic Party. | |
| They're all acting all outraged. | |
| These are the people that you know turned a blind eye to open borders and all the murderers, rapists, known terrorists, cartel members, gang members that were trying to get out of the country will take some period of time, and I don't know if you ever get all of them. | |
| And they didn't say a word. | |
| The same people that wouldn't stand for mothers that lost their children because of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris's unvetted illegal immigrants, a national security threat that actually mattered, and and barely a word from them, too. | |
| Uh, you know, like a bunch of petulant children, as they they struggled to find their identity. | |
| They lied about Joe's cognitive state. | |
| That too would be a national security danger for the country. | |
| And everybody knew that he was in significant cognitive decline. | |
| Now we're supposed to believe that Democrats and the state-run legacy media mob cares about national security. | |
| I'm not buying it. | |
| You know, it was this in this particular case, it was an accidental text exchange that in somehow included a reporter. | |
| It sounds like nobody knows how he got on. | |
| Uh Mike Walls saying, I never had this guy's number. | |
| I don't even know this guy. | |
| So anyway, an honest mistake that they want to turn into, you know, uh the biggest thing that they can't. | |
| I'm sure we'll hear impeachment within the next 24 hours. | |
| It is, and let me give you what the difference is. | |
| Okay, let's say somebody accidentally included this guy's name. | |
| I obviously was not on purpose. | |
| Uh there's such a big difference between systemic and institutional lying and policy danger that was embraced by Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. | |
| What they did on the border was a danger, a clear and present danger of the country. | |
| With Joe President, the commander-in-chief being incognito client, that's a clear and present danger. | |
| By allowing the Houthis to control international waterways and not do anything about it, that creates an international danger. | |
| You know, the fact that Joe Biden provides hundreds of billions of dollars to the Ukrainians and never once picked up a phone and even talked to Putin. | |
| I mean, just tells you how corrupted that he has been himself, and how out of touch he was with what is going on in the world. | |
| Now we've got a president that is looking to deport all these illegals, you know, bring tax cuts to the American people, get a reconciliation bill done, initiate energy dominance, end war in Europe, war in the Middle East, none of which is easy. | |
| And if he succeeds, he'll be the most consequential transformational president in over 150 years. | |
| And that's not what anybody in the Washington, D.C. swamp or the state-run legacy media mob wants. | |
| Anyway, 800-941 Sean is a number if you want to be a part of the program. | |
| Hey there. | |
| I'm Mary Catherine Hamm. | |
| And I'm Carol Markowitz. | |
| We've been in political media for a long time. | |
| Long enough to know that it's gotten, well, a little insane. | |
| That's why we started normally a podcast for people who are over the hysteria and just want clarity. | |
| We talk about the issues that actually matter to the country without panic, without yelling, and with a healthy dose of humor. | |
| We don't take ourselves too seriously, but we do take the truth seriously. | |
| So if you're into common sense, sanity, and some occasional SAS. | |
| You're our kind of people. | |

| It'll bring you to the contest page. | |
| And today's word of the day is Patriot. | |
| Okay. | |
| Most American-made car in the entire country with amazing technology that I know you're going to love. | |
| And everyone likes free stuff. | |
| I know I like free stuff. | |
| I love free stuff. | |
| Both Russia and Ukraine have agreed to a ceasefire in the Black Sea. | |
| That is big news. | |
| Delegation from Russia Ukraine today agreed to a ceasefire in the Black Sea following talks with the Trump administration and officials this week that are now still ongoing in Saudi Arabia. | |
| That's good news. | |
| U.S. and Russia have agreed to ensure safe navigation, eliminate the use of force, prevent the use of commercial vessels for military purposes in the Black Sea. | |
| And moments later, the Ukrainian defense minister who's leading the delegation confirmed all parties have agreed to ensure safe navigation, eliminate the use of force, prevent the use of commercial vessels for military purposes. | |
| Biden's top military official confessed that he's agreed to share U.S. war plans with China. | |
| Look at this. | |
| In light of what we just learned here, now we learned about Joe Biden. | |
| He had top secret classified information in four separate locations. | |
| And then when you go to the Her report, Biden was sloppy in his handling of classified material and shared with the information with the author of a book he was writing, and basically treated classified states' secrets like it was nothing. | |
| And this is the big complaint about this accidental signal group text that included a uh, you know, some guy from the Atlantic. | |
| Anyway, Hers report says his office considered changing or I'm sorry, charging this guy with obstruction of justice because the ghostwriter destroyed records of interviews he conducted with Biden while he worked on his second memoir once he learned that of the documents investigation. | |
| That would be called destroying evidence where I grew up. | |
| I don't know. | |
| That's what it sounds like to me. | |
| Uh the media hyperventilation over this, you know, hip piece, what was just an accidental, somehow it got, and I'd like to know how it happened. | |
| Because Mike Wals doesn't even know the guy. | |
| Anyway, Goldberg claims he was accidentally looped in on confident on this chain uh to on these plans to attack Yemen. | |
| Well, number one, the attack was successful. | |
| The mission was successful. | |
| Number two, no classified information was shared. | |
| Trump had been warning publicly for months that he wasn't going to tolerate this kind of two-bit terrorist attacks that the Houthis armed with Iranian weapons had gotten away with for years under Biden. | |
| He had already put Iran on notice that they and their proxies were in the crosshairs. | |
| So nobody on either side should be surprised when the so-called war plans that Goldberg says he got were suddenly launched. | |
| It was very public information, which begs the question where were the media guardians when Joe Biden's top military man, uh the joint chief's chairman, Mark Milley, didn't he get a preemptive pardon? | |
| He did. | |
| But you might recall that he promised China's defense minister that he would tip them off to our war plans if Donald Trump decided to attack. | |
| So let's be clear. | |
| Milley's promise to give the Chinese advance warning of a U.S. attack plan wasn't an accident. | |
| Unlike anything that they're alleging here, everybody, everybody knows this was an honest mistake. | |
| And they're trying to make it into, you know, the worst crisis, national security disaster ever. | |
| It's not. | |
| And it wasn't. | |
| And it frankly, nothing that there was no consequences from it was. | |
| Should they learn from it? | |
| Yes. | |
| Will they? | |
| Yes. | |
| But the mission was a success. | |
| But you know something I I didn't see how you can describe Milley's promise to become an informant for China with our military secrets or anything about what a betrayal that would be to a duly elected president. | |
| There's no outrage in the media, never has been, never will be. | |
| You know, a few Republicans read General Milley, the Riot Act in congressional hearings, but that was pretty much it. | |
| Democrats didn't care less. | |
| Washington Post broke the story at the time. | |
| General Milley's promise to tip off the communist Chinese to any American war plans. | |
| This is September 2021, and a pair of secret phone calls. | |
| General Milley assured the Chi his Chinese counterpart that that the United States would not associate uh editor Bob Woodward and national political reporter Robert Costa that the U.S. would not strike. | |
| So in other words, Milley went so far as to pledge he would alert China in the event of a U.S. attack, stressing that the report they'd established through a back channel. | |
| General Lee, you and I have known each other now for five years. | |
| If we're going to attack, I'm going to call you ahead of time. | |
| It's not going to be a surprise. | |
| That would put our troops in danger. | |
| That would give them time to prepare. | |
| That would eliminate the element of surprise. | |
| Milley also summoned senior officers to review the procedures for launching nuclear weapons, saying the president alone could give the order, but but crucially that he Millie had to be involved. | |
| Looking each other in the eye, Milley asked the officers to affirm that they had understood the author's right and what he considered an oath. | |
| So it wasn't just that General Milley was promising, according to this report, to tip off the communist Chinese ahead of time if America was planning a preemptive strike. | |
| According to this book, he also ordered America's nuclear officers to swear an oath of allegiance to him. | |
| So our commander in chief would not be able to launch even a response to a nuclear attack unless Milley himself personally approved. | |
| Did the Democrats, did the state run legacy media mob, did they ever say a word? | |
| No, they did not. | |
| I mean, it's it's pretty unbelievable. | |
| The hypocrisy is breathtaking. | |
| We do have Tesla news today. | |
| A Florida man drove his car into a crowd of Tesla protesters. | |
| The suspect was driving at a slow rate of speed. | |
| You gotta wonder if Jimmy Kimmel is going to be urging his audience tonight to never ever, under any circumstances, ram their cars into Tesla protesters. | |
| I mean, does uh Disney's woke DEI CEO Bob Iger approved that message of Jimmy Kimmel? | |
| Does Mickey Mouse approve the message of Jimmy Kimmel? | |
| I mean, what a what a what a hypocritical organization. | |
| Police received numerous calls regarding the black Nissan SUV driving off to a curb in front of a Tesla dealership, almost striking multiple pedestrians. | |
| The protesters moved out of the way to avoid being struck by the vehicle. | |
| When police arrived, his car was parked on the curb in front of the dealership, multiple people surrounding it until uh he was arrested and transported to the Palm Beach County jail without incident. | |
| Doge, by the way, has pulled the plug on a quarter billion dollar Biden grant to conduct transgender experiments on animals. | |
| This is the one thing when Trump said it during his speech before the joint session, I'd never heard of before. | |
| Did you ever hear of this, Linda? | |
| I had not heard of this. | |
| For me, definitely a first. | |
| The Biden administration funding transgender experiments on animals intended to improve so-called gender affirming care for humans, is now officially coming to an early end thanks to Doge and Elon Musk shining a light on this gruesome research. | |
| Congressman Eli Crane told JustHNews.com last month that the House Oversight Committee documented 241 million dollars in taxpayer funding for transgender surgery and treatments on animals with Dr. Anthony Fauci authorizing ninety-five percent of the procedures. | |
| He got a preemptive pardon. | |
| Didn't that Fauci get one? | |
| Yeah, Fauci got one. | |
| Didn't Liz Cheney get one? | |
| Yeah, Liz Cheney. | |
| Didn't uh Adam Schiff, the Adam Schiff had himself get one, yeah, the lying congenital liar. | |
| Many of the figures cited a recent hearing on federally funded animal cruelty came from the white coast white coat waste project, which documented $10 million spent on transgender rodent and monkey experiments. | |
| This is where your taxpayer dollars go, including University of California San Diego Research, which originally had 1.23 million obligated for the first two years of a planned five year study. | |
| One University of California San Diego study focused on androgen effects on reproductive access in mice where the rodents were quote, oh my gosh, gonadictmized, gomatoctomized, then injected with testosterone, and then finally decapitated. | |
| Sounds like a very, very worthwhile experiment. | |
| By the way, all you Elon Musk Tesla haters, you're gonna be very happy today because the Chinese, they have their own electric vehicle company, and their company, BYD, is now expected to surpass Tesla in electric vehicles sales this year. | |
| Apparently they reported 107 billion in 2024 revenue, topping Tesla's ninety-eight billion for the first time. | |
| That is beyond disappointing. | |
| I hope you're happy. | |
| And if people start losing their jobs that build Teslas and people start losing their jobs that work in Tesla dealerships and put together Tesla charging stations, um, I'm sure you'll be very proud of yourselves because you're looking out for the working men and women in the country, aren't you? | |
| Again, Hannity.com, word of the day is Patriot if you want to win a free Tesla. | |
| Uh Cash Patel confirming federal law enforcement is now investigating the string of violent attacks on Tesla dealerships, charging stations, and owners. | |
| The FBI's been investigating the increase in violent activity toward a Tesla over the last few days and have taken additional steps to coordinate their response. | |
| North Dakota arsonists left a gas can at the scene of a Tesla terrorism there. | |
| Just never ends. | |
| The FBI has issued an alert on arson, gunfire, vandalism targeting Elon Musk, Tesla, and E. V. owners. | |
| And this is how bad. | |
| Now, what is it about the left in this country? | |
| Maybe somebody can explain this to me, because I really don't understand it. | |
| I mean, if you look at the left in America today, you know, why is it they put on a pedestal? | |
| This guy, Luigi Manioni, who killed the CEO of United Healthcare, a father, a CEO, and a husband. | |
| And why are so many on the left celebrating? | |
| Now, why are so many on the left? | |
| Well, now we know the left. | |
| They're championing the rights of men to play women's sports. | |
| They're championing the rights of illegals over the safety of you, the American people. | |
| They are they are claiming we have a constitutional crisis if we save hundreds of billions of dollars in waste fraud and abuse. | |
| This is now it's the same left that's always been. | |
| The same left that that didn't care about the 574 riots, dozens of dead Americans, thousands of injured cops, billions in property damage in 2020. | |
| No, they went out and voted for the vice presidential candidate that said the riots won't stop, shouldn't stop, and we're not going to stop supporting them. | |
| Or lied about the violence, you know, because of open borders, they won't even stand for mothers that lost their children at a joint session. | |
| It's going to be very interesting because these Teslas apparently, when you put them in a certain mode, they become cameras and they'll be able to get pictures of the people that are involved in the violence. | |
| is there ever going to be a moment where there's nothing Donald Trump can do in and he said that during his joint session speech, is nothing they're going to be able to do, Donald Trump could ever do, that will ever get positive press from the state-run legacy media mob. | |
| If he solved cancer tomorrow, if he ends war in Europe and war in the Middle East, if he eliminates the threat of Iran, if he is able to deport every unvetted terrorist, murderer, rapist, cartel member, gang member, if he's able to cut taxes for the poor and middle class in this country, which is what his plan is, That's what no tax on tips are. | |
| No tax on overtime is all about, no tax on Social Security is all about. | |
| If he's able to achieve energy dominance that all Americans can eventually pay no taxes after we pay down the debt that these idiots have accumulated, you think he'd ever get a single word of praise? | |
| I don't think he would. | |
| They just live to hate this man and hate anybody that likes this man. | |
| I mean, it's it's they they this is the lunatic fringe that has taken over the Democratic Party, led by AOC Bernie and Jasmine Crockett. | |
| First, she said take down Elon Musk. | |
| Then she said Ted Cruz needed to be knocked over the head very hard. | |
| Now she's even making fun. | |
| We'll play it later in the show of Texas governor Greg Abbott. | |
| Why? | |
| Because he's in a wheelchair. | |
| That's why. | |
| What a nice person. | |
