	When I told people, I was making a podcast about Benghazi.
	Nine times out of ten, they called me a masochist, rolled their eyes, or just asked why.
	Benghazi, the truth became a web of lies.
	From Prologue Projects and Pushkin Industries, this is Fiasco Benghazi.
	What difference at this point does it make?
	Listen to Fiasco Benghazi on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
	All right.
	Thank you, Scott Shannon, and thanks to all of you for being with us.
	Write down our toll-free number.
	It's 800-941 Sean.
	If you want to be a part of the program, we've got Congressman Jim Jordan today will join us on the one big beautiful bill and President Trump on Capitol Hill today, uh meeting with Republicans and trying to get this over the finish line.
	Also, James Blair, the White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Legislative, Political, and Public Affairs.
	He's spearheading the effort for the White House and for the president.
	Uh this is this is very, very critical.
	And when I first went to the went to Congress at the start of this term, and I had the town hall with the House members and Speaker Johnson, and I had uh a similar town hall with senators.
	Uh the the first thing I say to them is everyone knows here that you're not going to get everything that you want, especially because of the arcane process that is known as reconciliation in the U.S. Senate.
	Long story short, I've explained it before.
	I won't go into specificity in detail, but it is a procedure by which you can bypass the normal process of cloture and the need for 60 votes to pass a bill in the U.S. Senate if it has to deal with financial issues and get by with a simple majority, which is the only way this is going to happen.
	I mean, it is it is kind of spectacular that there are Democrats that won't vote off that would vote for the largest tax increase in American history and not make the Trump tax cuts permanent.
	You know, it's a little mind-numbing that the party of compassion would not vote for no tax on tips for service workers.
	Uh, that they would vote against tax, they would vote to tax social security.
	Uh, they want to tax people's overtime.
	I mean, things Donald Trump's looking out for hardworking men and women, and those are the people that really make America great.
	Uh, we certainly know the Democratic Party puts the rights of illegal immigrants over the safety of American citizens.
	We we've seen that with the Brago Garcia and and the likes of uh Senator Van Holland, by the way, who got schooled by Marco Rubio.
	We'll play that later in the program today.
	And we know that they've had a chance in the U.S. Senate to champion uh women's sports and women's rights, but no, they they chose to champion the right of men to play women's sports.
	And they're the party that's claiming what a constitutional crisis to eliminate hundreds of billions of dollars in waste fraud abuse and corruption, and and they have the party that won't stand for mothers that lost their children at a joint session speech, and they won't stand for a young man the beat cancer, and they won't stand for the wife of a slain officer hero or a young man who lost his father who gets a commission to West Point.
	I mean, this this is how radical that they are.
	By the way, likely voters from both sides of the aisle say AOC.
	I've been telling you this for a long time.
	I was saying when Nancy Pelosi was speaker, that she's only speaker in name only, that it really was AOC.
	But now likely voters from both sides of the aisle say that AOC is the new face of the Democratic Party.
	Bernie Sanders, Grandpa Bernie comes in second, and Jasmine Crockett comes in third.
	This was in the Olympian a plurality of Americans consider AOC to be the new face of the party.
	Anyway, the coefficient survey, 26% of respondents named AOC.
	Uh and it went on to uh then give Grandpa Bernie 12%.
	Gasmine Crockett placed third with 8%.
	Kamala Harris only garnered 6%.
	Pothold Pete, 5%, tying Hakeem Jeffries.
	Then following that was Senator Cory Booker and Gavin Newsom at 2% each.
	I told Gavin, good luck with that.
	He's got something called a track record.
	The first group of Biden illegals have to self-deport after accepting free transportation and a $1,000 cash reward from the Trump administration.
	The beauty of that for them is they will have a chance to come into the country again legally.
	If you don't self-deport, you'll never get a chance to come into this country legally ever again.
	That window will close and you'll never get into the country legally.
	Period.
	End of sentence.
	That's just the way it's going to be.
	And uh so I give a lot, I mean, those people were smart, in my view.
	They were very smart to do that.
	I just think that uh they're right on target, and I think it's good for the country that you're giving them the opportunity to say, well, why are we giving the money?
	We're rewarding No, it's costing us a fortune for health care, housing, education, uh, the criminal justice system.
	No, it we're getting off, you know, eighty percent uh eighty percent discount, giving them a free plane ticket and a thousand bucks to restart their life.
	Uh Lindsey Graham now has 72 senators backing his bill to impose bone crushing sanctions on Russia.
	We'll hit that later.
	Senator Marsha Blackburn is sponsored a bill to end birth tourism by foreign nationals, which is becoming a bigger and bigger issue day by day.
	Got to give a tip of the hat to Home Depot as we start the program today.
	They won't hike prices on consumers uh to offset President Trump's tariffs, uh, although that is not really materialized to the extent that they said so.
	Uh Chuck Schumer in a further decline.
	I mean, it's kind of hard to get further down the path than he's gone, but anyway, New York City Mayor Eric Adams has pulled the rug out from Chucky Schumer trying to blame the Trump administration for causing that Mexican Navy ship to collide with the Brooklyn Bridge, and Schumer suggested Doge cuts to the U.S. Coast Guard played a role in the in the tragedy on Saturday.
	I'm fighting for answers about whether Trump and Doge have impacted water traffic control.
	It's just like they're trying to blame the idiot, you know, the uh Mayor Pothole Pete handed off to Sean Duffy, shy they were shy 3,000 air traffic controllers.
	And this is a guy that said to Sean Duffy, because I talked to Sean Duffy and interviewed Sean Duffy that Pothole P said, oh, this is a department that runs themselves.
	It runs itself if you don't do a damn thing.
	And the equipment in these air traffic control centers are from the 50s and 60s.
	You're lucky if it's from the 70s for crying out loud.
	Anyway, uh Mayor Adams undercut Schumer's bogus conspiracy theory and claim, citing the Coast Guard's full response to the ship's collision with the East River Bridge and said that the city handles crises well during uh an appearance on Fox Five Good Day New York.
	And uh anyway, so he says I'm not clear where the senator got his information, but I know that we had a full response on both sides of the river, unless the senator knows something that I don't know.
	It turns out the the boat lost power, and there wasn't a penny cut from what he's claiming.
	But you know, don't expect Democrats to ever tell you the truth.
	There is going to be a lot of focus on this program today and a lot of focus, you know, for the rest of the week, to be very honest.
	The one big beautiful bill uh that that the president went to the uh the Capitol today to urge Republicans to stop complaining and pass the budget bill.
	Look, and nobody's gonna get everything they want.
	But this is what we are getting.
	The tax cuts will be made permanent.
	Otherwise, we get the largest tax increase in American history.
	The there will be no tax on tips.
	You know what?
	When I worked in the service industry and I was a busboy waiter, bartender, I would have loved no tax on tips.
	When I worked in construction, I always worked overtime.
	I would have loved no tax on overtime.
	That's for working men and women.
	Democrats, you want to vote against it?
	All you'll do is is confirm to the American people what we've been saying.
	You are the party of out of touch coastal elites that believe in the new Green Deal, wokeism, transgenderism.
	You think it's a constitutional crisis to save hundreds of billions of dollars on these radical views spent overseas.
	You know, you champion the right of men to play women's sports, put the rights of illegals, even illegal gang members over the safety of Americans.
	You know, that that's the party that you are.
	Anyway, the president told House Republicans that he is to drop their push for further changes to the big beautiful bill, pass it this week.
	I think his message was a lot of good, hard negotiations have been going on.
	One of the outstanding issues happens to be salt, the state and local tax deduction.
	Now, when I was in New York during Trump's first term, I now am full time in Florida in case you haven't heard.
	I try to mention it as often as I can, the free state of Florida, because I'm happy to be here and glad to be out of there.
	But anyway, one of the I ended up paying more taxes, even though Donald Trump cut taxes because he also cut the deduction for state and local taxes.
	You used to be able to deduct it all on your on your tax form.
	And he he reduced it to ten percent.
	And that meant I I paid more and I ended up paying more net more in taxes.
	But it was the right thing to do.
	Otherwise, you're rewarding states that elect big tax and spend governors and mayors and legislators and city councils, that that's all they do.
	And the states that that elect fiscally responsible people, people that that don't tax and spend, they their constituents don't get this benefit.
	It's ridiculous.
	And the president was very clear don't mess with Medicaid, use the little saltier language.
	And uh some conservatives are still looking for changes that would reduce federal funding for states that expanded Medicaid under Obamacare to be to cover able-bodied adults.
	Um I think that provision will be taken out, actually.
	I I do believe that they're working on some compromise there.
	Uh some House Freedom Caucus members did not relent after the meeting seeking further changes to Medicaid, saying that the president discussed rooting out waste fraud and abuse in the program, which remains their aim.
	I think they're gonna win on that, so I think that's not gonna be a problem.
	As of now, the salt deduction, which is capped at 10,000 would go to 30,000 in the in the current rendition of of the bill that I'm seeing.
	You know, the president's got a lot of big things on his plate here, and he's got to deal with Iran at the same time.
	And the president couldn't have been more clear on that trip to the Middle East.
	Iran has a choice.
	They're either gonna join, they're either gonna give up their enrichment, they're gonna stop pursuing nuclear weapons, and they're gonna go along with the deal, or the it will be done for them.
	He could not have been more clear.
	They have two choices.
	He was very clear numerous times, and he was very clear to these countries.
	I was there.
	I heard him say it numerous times that he wants these countries to now sign on to the Abraham Accords.
	I think that will happen probably after the issue of Iran is decided.
	I do not believe the Iranians will give up enrichment.
	I just uh I that's my own personal opinion.
	And if they don't give it up, it'll be given up for them, whether they like it or not.
	The president's still pushing for a deal with Russia and and first getting a ceasefire, and we'll see what happens with that.
	He's trying everything he's trying to do is is big.
	These are all big things.
	But this bill is so critical.
	Now I may need to deputize many of you.
	We did this during the election.
	And we put up the Kamala files on the walls files, and we asked you, you know, to send it to your friends and your family and your neighbors and your co-workers and anybody that you knew and put it up on social media, and many of you responded.
	It was critical that so many of you get involved.
	And if we are getting the names of people that might be getting in the way, because again, this bill will help build out the next generation of weaponry.
	This bill will provide for border security and deportations.
	This bill will make the tax cuts permanent.
	It will eliminate taxes on tips, social security, and overtime.
	This bill will also begin the process of moving America towards energy dominance, which will help make this country rich on top of the $10 trillion in commitments and manufacturing, especially in areas that we need for national security reasons like pharmaceuticals and semiconductors and automobiles.
	I mean, this this will be hopefully the golden age.
	And by the way, at some point we expect the president will speak from the White House, and when he does, uh, he's going to speak about the plans for the Golden Dome.
	That might go down as his greatest legacy.
	I think strategic defense, when you see the Iron Dome working, that's Reagan's vision that Democrats and the legacy media mob at the time were mocking Star Wars, they called it.
	Well, a lot of Star Wars has prevented a lot of weapons from landing in places like Israel.
	And that was a great vision of the president.
	But to have one around the entire United States, I love the idea.
	And I think it over time, probably when we're long gone from this earth, and we go home to our father.
	That uh that will probably be his greatest legacy.
	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 sass.
	You're our kind of people.
	Catch new episodes of Normally every Tuesday and Thursday on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen.
	I'm Ben Ferguson, and I'm Ted Cruz.
	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 Dow, verdict with Ted Cruz now, wherever you get your podcasts.
	What I told people, I was making a podcast about Benghazi.
	Nine times out of 10, they called me a masochist, rolled their eyes, or just asked, why?
	Benghazi, the truth became a web of lies.
	It's almost a dirty word.
	One that connotes conspiracy theory.
	Will we ever get the truth about the Benghazi massacre?
	Bad faith, political warfare, and frankly, bullshit.
	We kill the ambassador just to cover something up.
	You put two and two together.
	Was it an overblown distraction or a sinister conspiracy?
	Benghazi is a rosetta stone for everything that's been going on for the last 20 years.
	I'm Leon Mayfock from Prologue Projects and Pushkin Industries.
	This is Fiasco Benghazi.
	What difference at this point does it make?
	Yeah, that's right.
	Locker up.
	Listen to Fiasco Benghazi on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
	The president, I'm not sure what the rules are with this.
	When Kamala Harris, you know, paid for the endorsements for Beyonce and Springsteen, I think and Oprah Winfrey, etc.
	It's very clever how they they paid these people.
	Because this these celebrity endorsements, first of all, they're dead.
	They had no impact at all.
	Um The president thinks that it warrants an investigation that laws may have been broken by paying the stars Beyonce and Bruce Springsteen and Bono and Oprah.
	Anyway, because the Harris campaign previously denied this, but the FEC record show that monies went to Beyoncé's production company.
	165 grand.
	A million dollars went to Oprah Winfrey's Harpo Productions, I believe.
	Her but she says she didn't take a personal fee.
	Now there's no law explicitly banning paid endorsements.
	Campaign payments, however, must be properly disclosed.
	And were they properly disclosed?
	And of course, uh, you know, Bruce Springsteen was called a dried out tried out prune.
	Did you see that?
	Chris Christie must have had heart palpitations.
	He's so in love with Bruce Springsteen.
	Bruce Springsteen hates him and wants nothing to do with him that I from the last I heard.
	Um but you know, one thing, not only did the state-run legacy media die, but so did celebrity endorsements died because Americans don't care what they think.
	They just don't care.
	And uh and they shouldn't care.
	And half these people don't know what the hell they're talking about anyway.
	And these are the same people that, and this goes to the heart of where we've been all week, and that is you know, this this whole Joe Biden cover-up lie.
	And and again, I feel sorry if Joe Biden has cancer.
	I really do.
	The idea that it's prostate cancer and it could have been detected earlier is unbelievable.
	But with all of that said, and and we offer all the prayers in the world for him and a speedy recovery.
	Prostate cancer is one of the most detectable cancers.
	And I I know so much about how how protected presidents are in terms of their health.
	I know a lot more than the average Joe, and things that I would not share on radio because I don't think I should.
	But I'm telling you, presidents have access to the best medical care as they should.
	They're the president of the most powerful country on earth.
	But um, you know, but I will tell you, nobody trusts any of anything of what they say because of everything that we learned about all the lies that they told.
	They they they kept his cognitive decline a secret.
	They all knew about it.
	They kept it a secret.
	The media all knew about it, and they kept it a secret.
	And this is they created what is a clear and present danger and a national security risk for our country.
	And that's just that's just a simple fact.
	You know, it's uh like the Emperor has no clothes, right?
	And now we have the Robert Hur tape, and we played that on the program here yesterday.
	We played it on TV last night.
	You know, her interviews Biden and concluded that while Joe had fragly flagrantly broken the law, like Comey, you know, realized Hillary broke the law, but no reasonable prosecutor would prosecute, except if it was of Donald Trump.
	Then we're gonna raid Mar-a-Lago and go through Melania's uh personal items.
	It's so sick.
	It's such a flagrant double standard.
	Anyway, the tape showed that her was extremely kind.
	By the way, why wasn't he sworn in, even though Democrats ripped him?
	He didn't even know when his own son died.
	He and he and he when he was told his own son died, then he got it wrong again.
	And, you know, and then I will say this too, because and and John Stewart really kind of nailed this whole thing, and he said about Tapper.
	Jake Tapper was one of the people that was a denier of Joe's cognitive decline.
	And we have him on tape, and now he's gonna make money off this.
	And John Stewart said, uh, these guys, yeah, maybe you should have told us what was in the book a year ago.
	How About four years ago.
	How fing weird it is that the news is selling you a book about news they should have told you was news a year ago for free.
	It's just fun.
	It's just fun to watch them not only continue to push the book in light of this difficult news, but to actually frame this difficult news as perhaps even more of a reason to buy this book.
	Some observers will say that the reporting in the book is even more important now.
	Yet nobody's saying that.
	No observers will say it's more important now.
	Some observers might think, do these CNN people work on commission?
	Like, why are they hawking this thing?
	Is this a Girl Scout cookie situation?
	Whoever sells the most tappa books gets a schwin.
	I mean, that is very funny.
	That is very funny.
	But I mean, how the CNN journalists covered up the Biden cover-up before writing a book about it.
	I mean, it's it's just so the media is so corrupt.
	And then this this whole dubious claim and why so long, and you know, it's it's just the big lie.
	And they knew about all of this the whole time.
	They knew about it when I first reported on it.
	We told the truth as usual.
	They lied as usual, and that's why people never try they're never gonna trust them again.
	You have to earn people's trust in life.
	You really do.
	Joe Biden's White House physician worked with Jim Biden on a project that was later accused of massive Medicaid fraud, uh, according to a report, Fox News, July 7, 2024.
	And uh anyway, James Comer wanted to question Dr. Kevin O'Connor about whether his medical assessments of Biden's health have been improperly influenced by his work with the Biden family and a company called AmeriCorps.
	Anyway, from that article, it turns out Biden's White House physician, who somehow managed to miss Biden's stage four prostate cancer until last week, used to work with the Biden family rainmaker, his brother Jim Biden.
	They worked together on a rural hospital project known as AmeriCorps that was eventually accused of what Politico described as, quote, massive Medicaid fraud, and as recently as last year, the House Oversight uh committee chairman James Comer was investigating this doctor to find out whether the business relationship with the Biden family may have caused him to look the other way on Biden's health problems.
	I mean, what's your job?
	Anyway, from Politico, February 24.
	Jim Biden played a major role in the company AmeriCorps, which the government accused of massive medic Medicare fraud.
	At least three of Joe's relatives did work with AmeriCorps.
	They included Jim Biden's wife and his son, and the president's son Hunter also met with the CEO and the and his personal doctor, current White House physician Kevin O'Connor O'Connor joined a meeting with Jim Biden and the president of a hospital being acquired by AmeriCorps.
	And James Comer's demanding the White House physician appear before Congress to answer questions while also revealing the doctor has been involved in in the Biden family business dealings.
	And Comer wanted to know whether O'Connor's medical assessments of the presidents have been improperly influenced by his work with the Biden family and the company AmeriCorps.
	I mean, uh our long national nightmare is over.
	This was a nightmare.
	You know, President Trump warning that Biden's cancer cover-up was dangerous for the country.
	Well, his cognitive cover-up was dangerous for the country.
	You don't have to be a genius to figure all this out.
	You really don't.
	It's incredible.
	But that's what they're doing.
	By the way, RFK Jr. just ripping the World Health Organization for caving to China on COVID and celebrating pandemic failures in a stunning video.
	Uh and thank God we're out of the WHO.
	We're not we're not funding it anymore.
	I I don't think we should be supporting any, and I mean any globalist organization.
	None at all whatsoever.
	I think that's gotta end.
	Hillary Clinton is floating Obama Bill Clinton running for third terms if Trump runs again.
	I'm all for That I don't think Donald Trump really planned.
	I think Donald Trump likes to troll.
	I think he's having fun with it because they bubble and fizz like alcohol salts are in water, and it's just fun to watch.
	It's so predictable at this point, and I think he enjoys it.
	Uh federal charges filed against a Democratic Congresswoman uh following this confrontation at this ICE facility.
	This is in New Jersey, where the uh acting U.S. attorney, Alina Haba, is charging Representative LaMonica McClever uh McClever?
	Is that how you say the person's name?
	Um alleged misconduct McClaver.
	How do you say it?
	You can say it on air.
	McIver, Monica McIver.
	You're me.
	You're messing it up too.
	So you're not any help.
	I am not messing it up.
	You just totally messed it up.
	I did not.
	You don't even know for sure that it's MacGyver.
	You're guessing the way I'm guessing.
	Just call her an idiot.
	That's what she is.
	That's fine.
	Okay, the idiot Congresswoman from New Jersey.
	Is that how you'd like me to refer to her?
	I would actually.
	Thank you.
	I would actually.
	Would you please?
	Anonymous Democrats confess to Time Magazine, their party is too extreme on abortion and trans athl athletes.
	They're so afraid of AOC, the squad, Jasmine Crockett, and Bernie that they don't want to come out.
	By the way, oh, let's play James Comey.
	His 8647 post.
	He claims he's the victim.
	Listen to this.
	He was on MSDNC.
	I don't know how we ended up here.
	Never occurred to me that it was any kind of controversial thing, but that's the time of it.
	So take me back to the walk on the beach.
	We were walking on the beach.
	We went to the beach to prepare for this week, which was the launch of my book.
	And to think about the book and to prepare to answer questions about it.
	And we were walking back towards the road, and we saw in the sand someone had arranged shells with numbers.
	And Patrice, my wife said, Why would someone put an address in the sand?
	And I said, I don't know.
	And we stood over it, and I said, you know, I think it's some kind of like political message.
	She said, you know, 86, when I was a server, she did a lot of work in restaurants meant to remove an item from the menu when you ran out of ingredients.
	And I said, Well, to me, as a kid, it always meant to leave a place, to ditch a place.
	I said, That's really clever.
	So then she said you should take a picture of that, and I did.
	And I posted it on my Instagram account and thought nothing more of it until I heard through her that people were saying it was some sort of a call for assassination, which is crazy, but I took it down.
	I don't even if I think it's crazy, I don't want to be associated with violence of any kind.
	It's hard to have regret about something that even in hindsight looks to me to be totally innocent.
	Yeah, by somebody.
	I actually didn't think of it as political speech by me, but I thought what a clever way to express a political view.
	The shells were the same color for each of the letters, so different colors for the letters.
	It took a lot of work.
	Somebody with artistic flair did that.
	And I have a hard time believing it was anybody with uh uh a dark uh intention, and it certainly was no dark intention on my part.
	No.
	But he thought it was a political message.
	His interpretation of the word 86 is to ditch a place.
	Uh and he didn't put ditch 47 together or assassinate 86 Donald Trump.
	Yeah, he wants you to believe that.
	I don't believe a word that comes out of James Comey's mouth.
	Let me put it that way.
	Not a single word.
	I don't believe a thing that that man says.
	And I I just whatever.
	Pete Heggseth is ordered a comprehensive review of Joe Biden's catastrophic withdrawal from Afghanistan.
	Thank God.
	Maybe we'll get to the bottom of it.
	Maybe we can get Bogram Air Base back too while we're at it.
	And maybe we can get our uh billions of dollars in military equipment back.
	Just saying.
