Podcast appearances and mentions of Ted Cruz

A new wave of legislation could change the Internet forever. From the U.S. to Australia, digital ID laws are emerging that could require users—especially teens—to prove their age with facial scans, credit cards, or government IDs just to go online. This episode dives into the so-called Online Safety Act, the SHOVE trial in LA, and the role of Republicans like Ted Cruz and Anna Pulina Luna in sponsoring measures that critics call “speech tyranny.” We explore the potential impact on free expression, social media companies, and everyday users—plus why Fox News is relentless in its coverage.

Today's episode covers the most explosive political stories and controversies dominating the news. From Trump exposing massive federal fraud and calling out Democrats for prioritizing illegal immigrants, to the rise of digital ID legislation targeting minors, and alarming international developments with Iran's nuclear program, we break it all down. Plus, reactions from prominent Democrats, bipartisan pushback, and the latest tactics to control online speech are analyzed. This is your no-spin summary of the key issues shaping the nation.

In this hard-hitting 17-minute special edition of The Right Side, Doug Billings breaks down the jaw-dropping viral clip that has already racked up over 20 million views in 24 hours.California Governor Gavin Newsom — the multi-millionaire wine-country Democrat eyeing 2028 — stood in front of a largely Black audience in Atlanta and tried to “relate” by saying:“I'm like you. I'm no better than you. I'm a 960 SAT guy… You've never seen me read a speech because I cannot read a speech.”Doug delivers the no-spin analysis you won't hear anywhere else: this isn't empathy — it's textbook soft bigotry of low expectations. Hear the full quote, the instant backlash from Ted Cruz, Nicki Minaj, and millions of Americans, the historical roots in the Great Society, and why this moment is waking people up across every race and background.From lowered standards to “equity over excellence,” this clip perfectly exposes the condescending mindset that has dominated the modern left for decades — and why normal Americans are rejecting it in bigger numbers every single day.If you're tired of politicians talking down to voters, this is the episode you need to hear — and share.✅ Hit play, then share it with one friend who needs to see the truth the mainstream media won't touch.✅ Subscribe and turn on notifications so you never miss the analysis that cuts through the spin.The Right Side with Doug Billings — Real talk.

1. Criticism of Democratic Leaders on Law Enforcement Barack Obama, Gavin Newsom, and other Democratic figures are hostile toward law enforcement agencies, particularly ICE and National Guard deployments. Obama is quoted as describing some federal agents’ actions as “rogue,” which the speakers interpret as an attack on ICE. Gavin Newsom is criticized for comments comparing masked federal agents to authoritarian “secret police,” specifically referencing imagery associated with Germany’s past. Newsom’s claim that National Guard federalization was unprecedented. President Eisenhower’s 1957 use of federal authority to enforce desegregation in Little Rock, Arkansas. Newsom is “historically illiterate,” which later triggers a public Twitter exchange. 2. Newsom’s Response and the Dyslexia Angle Newsom accuses Ted Cruz of mocking his dyslexia. Cruz responds that “historically illiterate” referred to misunderstanding history, not reading ability. A social‑media back‑and‑forth unfolds, including jokes, memes, and comparisons of engagement statistics. Obama is: Highly partisan, Influential on younger progressive Democrats, Associated with cultural or “Marxist” ideological trends (as described by the speakers), Possibly influential behind the scenes during the Biden administration. Obama’s presidency contributed to increased political division. 3. Discussion of Tucker Carlson’s Recent Behavior Carlson has changed significantly since leaving Fox News. Anti‑Israel sentiment Hosting extremist guests Favoring authoritarians such as Putin or Iranian leadership Attacking Christian Zionists He may have ulterior financial or ideological motivations (while acknowledging no direct evidence).

Join Jim and Greg for the Tuesday 3 Martini Lunch as they discuss California Gov. Gavin Newsom's pathetic response to being accurately called "historically illiterate," growing speculation about a possible Supreme Court vacancy, and a new clash among Stephen Colbert, CBS, and federal regulators over election law.First, they dissect Gavin Newsom's controversial comments in Germany comparing ICE to the Gestapo or the Stasi, along with his claim that President Trump was the first commander-in-chief to deploy the National Guard and active-duty military inside the United States. After Texas Sen. Ted Cruz labeled Newsom “historically illiterate,” Newsom fired back by accusing Cruz of mocking his dyslexia. Jim and Greg explain why Newsom is wrong on all counts.Next, they examine rumors that Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito may be considering retirement this year. While much of the speculation appears thin, Jim and Greg outline one practical reason why Alito could decide this is the right moment to step down from the high court.Then, they dive into the dispute involving Stephen Colbert, CBS, and the FCC over Colbert's planned interview with Texas Democrat James Talarico just weeks before the Texas U.S. Senate primary. CBS and the FCC say equal time applies in this situation, meaning Colbert needed to offer an interview to Democrat Jasmine Crockett and possible the Republican U.S. Senate candidates.Finally, they reflect on the passing of the Rev. Jesse Jackson.Please visit our great sponsors:Help protect your family with life insurance through Ethos.

Tucker Carlson is making waves with reports of an upcoming trip to Israel for an interview with US Ambassador Mike Huckabee, following their heated social media exchanges over Christian treatment in the region and Carlson's past comments downplaying Hamas as a terrorist group. Times of Israel reports that Israel initially considered barring him but backed off to avoid a diplomatic row, after Huckabee challenged Carlson to come talk in person following a recent episode of The Tucker Carlson Show.His latest content from Jordan, a 30-minute video titled “The Shocking Reality of the Treatment of Christians in the Holy Land by US-Funded Israel,” has drawn sharp backlash. The Media Line and Ynet News detail fact-checks debunking his claims of shrinking Christian populations as a crisis, exaggerated spitting incidents compared to al-Qaida madrasas, and false suggestions of an Israeli strike on Gaza's Al-Ahli Hospital—actually a misfired Palestinian rocket. Evangelical leader Joel Rosenberg warns Carlson of spiritual peril for his anti-Israel stance, while attorney Calev Myers calls it a master class in gaslighting half-truths.On his Tucker Carlson Network, fresh episodes feature Rep. Tim Burchett discussing UFO secrecy, congressional insider trading, and institutional distrust, fueling debates on government transparency. Podbean highlights Carlson's national media tour with guests like Russell Brand, Vivek Ramaswamy, and Marjorie Taylor Greene, alongside his subscription platform's growth through fundraising and patriotic investments. Recent clips question redacted Israel references in JFK and RFK assassination files during a talk with Cenk Uygur, per Algemeiner.Reactions split conservatives: Laura Loomer accuses him of pro-Islamic bias amid Israel clashes like his challenge to Ted Cruz on US support, while supporters praise his push against establishment media. His ventures, including The Tucker Carlson Show podcast topping Spotify charts, solidify his influence in building an independent conservative ecosystem.Thanks for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast—please subscribe for more updates.

1. Minnesota AG Keith Ellison’s Senate Testimony Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison was questioned in the Senate regarding alleged failures to prevent and address large‑scale fraud in the state’s Feeding Our Future program. Senators—primarily Josh Hawley—accused Ellison of: Ignoring whistleblower warnings as early as 2018–2019. Meeting with individuals later indicted for fraud and allegedly offering to “look into” investigators who were scrutinizing them. Accepting approximately $10,000 in campaign donations from individuals tied to the fraud shortly after their meeting. Ellison strongly denied wrongdoing, describing the claims as false and politically motivated. The session was tense, marked by interruptions, raised voices, and confrontational exchanges. 2. Refusal to Condemn Louis Farrakhan During questioning, Ellison declined to explicitly condemn antisemitic statements attributed to Louis Farrakhan. He attempted to redirect discussion to immigration topics, expressing discomfort with the line of questioning. 3. Democrats Linked to Record Sewage Spill Democratic officials in Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia oversaw infrastructure failures leading to the largest sewage spill in U.S. history. A burst 72‑inch sewer pipe released nearly one billion gallons of raw sewage into the Potomac River. Criticism is directed at: Lack of media coverage. Slow response times. Infrastructure mismanagement. Emergency pumps had to be transported from Texas and Florida to address the crisis. 4. Discussion of Government Competence Democratic‑run cities and states mismanage public systems (snow removal, wildfire mitigation, infrastructure maintenance, etc.). They argue such patterns reflect systemic governmental incompetence. 5. Save America Act & Voter ID Debate The Save America Act, passed in the House with near‑unanimous Republican support, requires: Proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote. Photo ID to vote. Senator Ted Cruz advocates for aggressive procedural tactics in the Senate, including: Forcing a “talking filibuster.” Using the two‑speech rule to pressure Democratic senators. The argument made: voter ID laws are widely supported across political and demographic groups. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

On this episode of The Karol Markowicz Show, Karol sits down with radio host and political commentator Ben Ferguson for a refreshing, deeply personal conversation that goes far beyond politics. Best known for his years debating on CNN, The Ben Ferguson Show, and co-hosting Verdict with Senator Ted Cruz, Ben opens up about his incredible journey—from starting in talk radio at just 12 years old to becoming a nationally recognized media voice. He shares behind-the-scenes stories from his early days with Bill O’Reilly, his time “fighting it out” on cable news, and how the media landscape has dramatically shifted. But this episode takes a different turn. Ben discusses life outside the political spotlight, including his passion for barbecue, launching successful restaurants, and—most importantly—being a father to three young boys. He reflects on what truly matters, why he’s turned down major opportunities to prioritize family, and how parenting has reshaped his perspective on success. The conversation also dives into the future of AI, with Ben predicting transformative changes in healthcare, jobs, and everyday life—and why he remains optimistic about what’s ahead. Plus, Ben shares powerful advice on staying present, breaking phone addiction, and strengthening relationships in an increasingly distracted world.

On Thursday's "Dan O'Donnell Show," Democrats are celebrating the end of the ICE surge in Minneapolis while ignoring the fact that deportation efforts are ramping up across the country. Plus, Senator Ted Cruz joins the show to discuss the SAVE Act and the possibility of Democrats shutting down the government yet again.

This weeks topics include how John and crew we're feeling the heat with no ac in the studio, along with Rev. Ted Cruz, Top Ten Marketing Ideas For Trump, Wallace Edwards on Ted Nugent, Sports, Ashton Martins and Much more!

A jammed packed show this week! Trump leaves a odd VM on Ted Cruz phone, Aussie the phone screener is filling in and BOY does she have some sexy stories to share, and the crew tries to reenact a famous movie scene.

In this episode Frank and Maya (his AI sidekick) react to Donald Trump publicly suggesting Ted Cruz as a potential Supreme Court nominee, weighing the political logic and the long-term consequences of such a move. They dissect Cruz's record — from votes on insulin and Social Security to his actions around Jan. 6 — and close with a lighter but alarming story about an RFK Jr. nutrition chatbot giving inappropriate advice.

Tucker Carlson has been making waves with his recent Middle East travels, including a trip to Jordan and an expected visit to Israel, where officials reportedly considered but ultimately rejected denying him entry to avoid diplomatic fallout, according to The Jerusalem Post and HaTzinor reports. In a new video from the region, Carlson highlighted what he described as oppression of Christians in Jerusalem by Israel, contrasting it with greater religious freedom for Christians in Jordan, where he interviewed local Christian leaders who praised Muslim-Christian harmony. He sharply criticized US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee for failing to defend Jerusalem's Christians and ignoring attacks on Palestinian Christians by Israeli settlers.This sparked a public feud, with Huckabee challenging Carlson on X to interview him directly instead of talking about him, and Carlson quickly agreeing, setting up what could be their first face-to-face since the spat began. Israel Hayom and the Jewish Telegraphic Agency note the exchange has deepened rifts in the conservative movement over Israel, antisemitism accusations, and Christian Zionism, with Huckabee questioning if Carlson hides any love for Jews.Earlier this week at the World Government Summit 2026 in Dubai, Carlson clashed heatedly with presidents of Botswana, Sierra Leone, and Zimbabwe in a viral session questioning the retreat of global democracy and selective international justice, as covered by The New Africa Channel. His Tucker Carlson Network continues to thrive with fresh episodes, including one with Rep. Tim Burchett on UFO secrecy and congressional insider trading, fueling debates on government trust. He's also on a national media tour featuring guests like Russell Brand and Marjorie Taylor Greene, while fundraising expands his subscription platform.Reactions split along ideological lines: conservatives hail him as a counter to mainstream media, while critics like Laura Loomer accuse him of pro-Islamic bias, and figures like Ted Cruz face his challenges on Israel support. These moves underscore Carlson's growing sway in right-wing politics amid ongoing ventures post-Fox News.Thanks for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast—please subscribe for more updates.

In the 6 AM Hour: Larry O’Connor and Bethany Mandel discussed: The Patriot Oasis™ on X: "

You're listening to Right On Radio. Live right in the real world. And welcome to Right On Radio, everybody. My name is Jeff. In this free-flowing episode Jeff and co-host John open with the Word on Word segment and preview three core topics: the latest fallout from the Epstein document releases, new mainstream reporting about immigration and political infrastructure, and a short Donald J. Trump clip that sparks a broader discussion about a possible “dark‑to‑light” narrative. The show begins with a reflective Word on Word moment and a short music segment — Jeff reads controversial song lyrics (the well‑known Bruce Springsteen track) to illustrate how words shape culture and can reveal deeper social problems. That musical interlude leads into commentary about how popular songs and celebrity behavior intersect with political and moral debates today. Jeff and John dig into the Epstein material, weighing credible revelations against endless rabbit holes. They address claims circulating online — from 4chan connections to theories about Epstein's death — while urging caution about unverified assertions. The episode includes short clips (including a cut of Senator Ted Cruz and commentary on the late Robert David Steele) and a frank exchange about how these revelations feed broader narratives about bloodlines, elite networks, and conspiratorial interpretations of global events. Next, the hosts examine immigration reporting highlighted by a Fox News segment with investigator Peter Schweizer. They discuss the Reconquista narrative, Mexican political infrastructure in the U.S., the role of consulates, and claims about organized political influence tied to migration. Jeff and John also discuss public worries and rumors — from deportation camps and migrant use in security roles to concerns about sovereignty — and the recent removal of Ed Martin from a DOJ working group, considering the political timing and ramifications. The episode closes with a 33‑second clip from Donald Trump and a wide‑ranging conversation about the possibility of a false “great awakening,” Q‑related narratives, the emergence of a one‑world religious or political order, and cultural shifts involving high‑profile celebrities (Nicki Minaj is discussed) and Christian conservatives. Jeff teases an upcoming Friday show and reminds listeners of the prayer meeting at 7:30 p.m.; co‑host John contributes historical context and personal reflections throughout. Guests and contributors heard or referenced: co‑host John, researcher S90 (mentioned as a future collaborator), audio clips featuring Senator Ted Cruz, Robert David Steele, Rabbi Shmuley Boteach, investigator Peter Schweizer (Fox News), and an archival Donald J. Trump clip. Key takeaways: a skeptical but urgent look at the Epstein documents, close attention to shifting immigration narratives and political influence, concern about cultural decay and media messaging, and an ongoing call for discernment as new information continues to surface.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. TX Sen. Ted Cruz Joins the Show! Clay highlights encouraging data showing core inflation dropping to 2.6%, its lowest level since March 2021. The hosts explain why this trend signals progress toward the Federal Reserve’s 2% target and could lead to lower interest rates in 2026. They also discuss affordability challenges and debate proposals like capping credit card interest rates at 10%, with Senator Ted Cruz joining the show to warn about unintended consequences that could hurt low-income Americans by restricting access to credit. The hour concludes with a deep dive into Iran’s escalating protests against the Ayatollah’s regime, featuring an extended interview with Texas Senator Ted Cruz. Cruz calls the uprising a potential “Berlin Wall moment,” predicting the Islamic theocracy could collapse within weeks following its humiliating defeat in the recent 12-day war with Israel. He praises President Trump’s strong stance in support of Iranian freedom and outlines strategies ranging from cyber operations to limited kinetic strikes against regime forces, while stressing the importance of keeping the revolution authentically Iranian. Cruz also reveals that Elon Musk has activated Starlink over Iran to help protesters bypass government censorship, underscoring the role of technology in modern resistance movements. Buck's Crazy Credit Card Story From cultural flashpoints, the discussion moves to economic policy and affordability, spotlighting Trump’s proposal to cap credit card interest rates at 10% for one year. Clay questions whether a president can legally impose such a cap, while Buck recalls predatory practices like shifting due dates and punitive APR hikes that previously triggered regulatory crackdowns. Senator Ted Cruz warns that such caps could backfire by restricting credit access for high-risk borrowers, pushing them toward payday lenders or worse. Listener calls enrich the debate: one caller warns that temporary caps could encourage larger balances only to reset at 20% later, echoing pitfalls of adjustable-rate mortgages; another shares a teachable moment with her grandson about compound interest and minimum payments, underscoring the need for financial literacy in schools. Clay contextualizes Trump’s move as part of a broader populist strategy to address affordability concerns heading into the 2026 midterms, alongside proposals to curb institutional home purchases. Financial Literacy Isn't Taught at School The hour opens with a candid discussion on financial literacy and mortgage realities, as Clay explains how most homeowners misunderstand amortization tables. For the first decade of a 30-year mortgage, nearly all payments go toward interest rather than principal, leaving many Americans unaware of how little equity they build early on. The hosts argue that schools fail to teach essential financial skills—such as understanding compound interest, credit card debt, and mortgage structures—leaving consumers vulnerable to predatory practices. This ties into their broader critique of systemic financial inequities and the need for transparency in lending. The conversation then shifts to Trump’s economic agenda, highlighted by his speech at the Detroit Economic Club. Clay and Buck analyze Trump’s populist proposals, including a one-year cap on credit card interest rates at 10% and restrictions on institutional investors buying single-family homes. They debate the feasibility and impact of these measures, noting that while Trump’s plan may face legal hurdles, it resonates politically by addressing affordability concerns. Buck shares personal anecdotes about credit card companies’ predatory tactics, reinforcing why Trump’s stance on consumer protection is striking a chord with voters. The hosts also explore how housing shortages are exacerbated by illegal immigration and corporate ownership of residential properties, driving up prices and squeezing middle-class families. SCOTUS Trans Athlete Arguments From economics, the hour pivots to a landmark Supreme Court case on transgender athletes in women’s sports, featuring an interview with Jennifer Sey, founder of XX-XY Athletics and former Levi’s executive. Sey, who spoke at a rally on the steps of the Supreme Court alongside Riley Gaines, calls the case a fight for reality and fairness, arguing that Title IX was designed to protect female athletes based on biological sex—not gender identity. She warns that allowing males to compete in women’s sports undermines decades of progress and discourages girls from participating. Sey predicts that even if the Court rules 6–3 in favor of states like West Virginia and Idaho, progressive states will double down on policies permitting biological males in female sports, framing the issue as a cultural battle that must be fought beyond the courtroom. Clay and Buck echo her concerns, blasting terms like “cisgender” and “trans girls” as linguistic fictions that normalize gender ideology at the expense of women’s rights.

1. New Year’s Resolutions The first part of the discussion is lighthearted and personal. Both hosts share their resolutions for 2026: Ted Cruz’s resolutions: Lose 30 pounds (from 236 lbs to 206 lbs) through diet and exercise. Complete a “Dry January” (no alcohol for the month). Read the Bible daily throughout the year. Ben Ferguson’s resolutions: Focus on building muscle after significant weight loss (from 298 lbs to 209 lbs). Commit to reading the Bible daily alongside Cruz. They also reflect on family life, parenting, and the emotional challenges of children growing up and leaving home. 2. Minnesota Shooting, Riots & Fraud The second part shifts to a serious political discussion: Incident in Minnesota: A woman allegedly tried to run over an ICE agent with her SUV and was fatally shot. The hosts argue that the Left is politicizing the event, portraying the woman as a victim, and using the situation to attack law enforcement. Rhetoric and Violence: They criticize Democratic leaders for inflammatory language, claiming it encourages violence against ICE and law enforcement. Examples include: Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey telling ICE to “get out” of the city. Governor Tim Walz suggesting Minnesota is “at war” with the federal government. Fraud Scandal: They discuss a massive Somali-related fraud in Minnesota, allegedly involving $9 billion in taxpayer funds across multiple sectors (childcare, transportation, etc.). The conversation frames this as deliberate Democratic corruption tied to immigration policies and vote-buying. Law Enforcement Advice: Practical tips for interacting safely with police during traffic stops are shared, emphasizing respect and de-escalation. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
