Immigration Fraud and Government Corruption: Elon Musk and the Doage team exposed issues with immigration fraud and government corruption. Asylum applicants can receive work authorization and Social Security numbers shortly after applying, leading to potential voter fraud and other benefits. The process incentivizes fraudulent asylum applications, taking jobs from American citizens. Government Spending on Furniture: Federal agencies spent over $4.6 billion on furniture from 2021 to 2024, despite many staff working from home during the COVID-19 pandemic. Examples include the SEC spending $700,000 on a conference room and the CDC buying solar-powered picnic tables.

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. These numbers allowed illegal aliens to access government programs and aid, costing American taxpayers hundreds of billions of dollars. The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) reported that many illegal aliens received Medicaid, driver's licenses, and some even registered to vote. Transgender Athletes in Women's Sports: A female fencer was disqualified for refusing to compete against a transgender opponent. Senator Ted Cruz launched an investigation into USA Fencing's policies, aiming to protect women and girls in sports. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

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. The document highlights the seriousness of the situation and the potential for military action if negotiations fail. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Congressional Hearing: The CEOs of NPR and PBS faced tough questioning from Congress, reminiscent of previous hearings involving Ivy League presidents on anti-Semitism. Catherine Maher, the CEO of NPR, was particularly criticized for her past tweets and statements, which were scrutinized by Brandon Gill, a freshman House member from Texas. Key Exchanges: Maher was questioned about tweets related to white supremacy, reparations, and looting. She often claimed not to recall the context or denied the implications of her tweets.

Maher's Background: Maher has a history of working with various organizations, including the Council on Foreign Relations, UNICEF, the National Democratic Institute, the World Bank, Access Now, and the Wikimedia Foundation.

Tariff Announcement: President Trump announced a ten percent baseline tariff on virtually every country, with specific tariffs for individual countries ranging from ten to forty-nine percent. This is the highest rate of tariffs the United States has had in place since 1930. Political and Economic Implications: The announcement has caused anxiety and concern among people, with Democrats criticizing the move and Republicans defending it. The podcast discusses the potential outcomes, including the possibility of other countries lowering their tariffs in response, which could be beneficial for the American economy. Potential Risks: There are significant risks if other countries retaliate with their own tariffs, leading to a trade war and increased inflation. The impact on various industries, such as the automotive industry, is discussed, with concerns about rising prices for both new and used cars. Economic Analysis: The Tax Foundation's analysis predicts that if the tariffs remain in effect, imports will fall by twenty-eight percent, and the US GDP will shrink by 0.8 percent over the next decade. The tariffs could result in a significant tax increase for American consumers. Political Consequences: The outcome of these tariffs could influence the 2026 midterm elections, with potential repercussions for the Republican party if the economy suffers. Senator Cruz expresses hope for a positive outcome but acknowledges the high risks involved. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

The Semi-Fascist Social Club convenes to break down Biden's new anti-MAGA strategy, unveiled this week. And what a week it has been. Karine Jean-Pierre calls Americans who don't agree with Biden's lawless power grabs and feckless leadership "threats to democracy." The White House outright lies about what is happening on our southern border. Radical "doctors" get caught admitting to performing graphic transgender mutilations on shockingly young children. Biden's woke Pentagon plants continue their bid to destroy America's fighting forces. All this, and Bernie Sanders now features our very show in his campaign videos. So how do we stop the destruction of our country, our freedom, and everything we hold dear?Apply to bring Verdict to your campus this fall at https://yaf.org/verdict.--Diversify your savings with American Hartford Gold and get up to $1,500 of free silver PLUS a free safe today.

The White House moves to rain cash down on slackers at the expense of hardworking Americans in what might be one of the largest transfers of wealth from the poor to the rich in American history. Senator Ted Cruz joins Michael Knowles to discuss the scary reality of Biden's $300 billion plan to “cancel” student loan debt. And because we apparently give money anybody and everybody now, “I surrender” Joe is also on a mission to revive Obama’s plan to give nukes to Iran—talk about a disaster waiting to happen.

And you thought it couldn’t get any worse. In a grim followup to last week’s exposé on the corruption at Biden’s DOJ that led to the FBI raid on President Trump’s home, Senator Ted Cruz joins Michael Knowles to share what we now know about the motives, facts, and lies that surround this unprecedented abuse of power by the Feds. And are we really surprised?

Merrick Garland "will not stand" for attacks on the integrity of Biden’s DOJ and FBI! But just one question—what the heck happened to the rule of law?

And speaking of weaponizing the federal government, Dems vote to double (yes, DOUBLE) the size of the IRS… to process our tax returns faster? Certainly not.

With one simple question, Senator Ted Cruz sets the internet on fire—Who is Ray Epps? Now, the Senator joins Michael Knowles and Liz Wheeler to ponder the answer to this and several subsequent questions. What was the FBI’s involvement in January 6th?

And because a hard day’s work is never done, Biden and his band of hooligans continue to fight against the Senator on Nord Stream 2 and the filibuster. In celebration of the 100th episode and the two year anniversary of Verdict, we’ve got 3 exciting giveaways and challenges for Verdict listeners:1.

Biden, Schumer, and the Democrats were one vote away from passing Build Back Broke, and then it all went up in flames. Joe Manchin said no to his own party. As the man in the middle of it all, Senator Ted Cruz joins Michael Knowles and Liz Wheeler to give the inside scoop on what happened. And because one victory isn’t enough, at the midnight hour, the Senator scored a second major victory against Schumer—let’s just say some major consequences for Russia are on now the docket. Now, the question that remains: will Republicans also be able to score a victory on vaccine mandates in the winter of "severe illness and death?"In celebration of the 100th episode and the two year anniversary of Verdict, we’ve got 3 exciting giveaways and challenges for Verdict listeners:1.

Putin is once again attempting to restore the Soviet Union and, according to experts, could be poised to roll tanks into Ukraine as early as January.

Senator Ted Cruz and Michael Knowles are joined by Liz Wheeler for this special holiday episode. Together, the Audiocasting A-Team shares some quirky Turkey Day traditions, takes your silly and serious Thanksgiving-themed questions, and even tells the story of a little known Mayflower love triangle, putting Michael’s Yale literature degree to the test.

Will Senator Cruz be indicted for murder? You might be forgiven for thinking so if you witnessed his recent exchange with Biden’s DHS Secretary in a Senate hearing room. Today, the Senator joins Michael Knowles to answer some questions (unlike Mayorkas) about the incident in question. Namely, why don’t the Democrats care about the kids in Biden's cages?
