Verdict with Ted Cruz

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? As the Attorney General turns the FBI into his personal political tool and raids Trump's Mar-a-Lago, Senator Ted Cruz joins Michael Knowles to break down the consequences of this completely unprecedented move, including what it means for 2024, and expose the utter double-standard the Left is operating under. 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. The Biden Administration is out for blood, and this is simply their next move. -- Diversify your savings with American Hartford Gold and get up to $1,500 of free silver PLUS a free safe today.

If we've learned anything from AOC, it's that if your critics hate you, they just want to date you. The Babylon Bee apparently had the same thing in mind when they wrote about Senator Ted Cruz's sexually frustrated critics in a now-viral satire story.

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? Why are they stonewalling the Republican's inquiries? 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?"

As the Left kicks it into overdrive, spinning up new yarns about the January 6th “insurrection,” Senator Ted Cruz sits down with Michael Knowles and Liz Wheeler to discuss Liz Cheney's “bombshell” text messages and figure out what the sham committee is actually after. Plus, after Kathy Hochul presumes to speak for God, the Supreme Court rejects a petition by New York healthcare workers for a religious exemption to vaccine diktats.

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.

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?

This week, in what could reasonably be called the greatest day for Republicans in recent memory, the nation watched as we claimed major victories in Virginia. Among them, Glenn Youngkin soundly defeated Terry McAullife. Now, Senator Ted Cruz joins Michael Knowles to answer what should be the most important question of the week: how did Youngkin win, and how can we do it again? And, back by popular demand, the Senator and Michael officially welcome Liz Wheeler to the show with an extended mailbag segment. Plus, Senator Cruz reveals the terms of a wager he lost to another senator over the World Series outcome (you won't believe what he has to do now).
