In this bonus episode of Verdict with Ted Cruz, hosts Senator Ted Cruz and Ben Ferguson discuss:  European Union vs. Elon Musk and Free Speech The EU fined Elon Musk’s platform X (formerly Twitter) $140 million under the Digital Services Act (DSA) for failing to comply with transparency and moderation requirements. Ben and the Senator argue this is an attack on free speech, claiming the EU wants to impose censorship globally, including on American platforms. They highlight a letter from the EU in August 2024 urging Musk to censor content related to Donald Trump’s interview, framing it as an attempt to silence political discourse. The discussion emphasizes the contrast between U.S. First Amendment protections and Europe’s regulatory approach, warning of potential ripple effects on American free speech. There’s a call for the Trump administration to retaliate with sanctions against the EU, such as tariffs, to prevent foreign influence on U.S. speech norms. 2. Tucker Carlson’s Ties to Qatar Tucker Carlson’s visit to Qatar, where he interviewed the Prime Minister during the Doha Forum. Ben and Senator Cruz criticize Carlson for allegedly failing to ask tough questions about Qatar’s: Support for Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood. Funding of anti-American and anti-Semitic propaganda, including protests on U.S. campuses. Lobbying efforts in Washington and influence campaigns targeting conservative figures. Restrictive policies on women’s rights. They express concern over Carlson reportedly buying property in Qatar, framing it as aligning with a regime hostile to U.S. interests. The commentary portrays Carlson as sympathetic to authoritarian leaders (similar to his interviews with Putin and Iran’s president), undermining American values and Trump’s foreign policy.

Buck Flying Solo The discussion opens with the economic outlook under President Donald Trump’s second term, emphasizing persistent affordability issues and inflationary pressures that remain despite strong stock market performance. Buck highlights the lingering impact of COVID-era shutdowns and stimulus spending, noting that prices for essentials like housing, healthcare, and education remain high. He cites recent trade deficit improvements as evidence of Trump’s “America First” trade policies and tariff strategy, while warning that Democrats will weaponize price discontent in upcoming elections.  Insights from former SEC Chair Jay Clayton on the 22% price surge under Biden, framing affordability as the defining economic challenge. Buck stresses that Republicans must go beyond blaming Biden-era inflation and articulate clear solutions, including boosting supply and efficiency rather than resorting to destructive price controls—a policy he compares to Venezuela’s economic collapse. The Unaffordable Care Act Buck also addresses healthcare policy battles, revealing dueling Senate bills on Obamacare subsidies and criticizing Democrats’ push to extend Affordable Care Act provisions, which he argues have made healthcare far less affordable. He warns that rising premiums and taxpayer-funded coverage for illegal immigrants remain underreported but critical issues.  Buck calls for unity on the right, rejecting intramural squabbles and urging focus on core priorities: fixing costs, securing the border, and countering media misinformation. He promotes his upcoming book Manufacturing Delusion, which explores propaganda and political manipulation, framing it as essential reading for understanding today’s ideological battles. The Truth About Immigration Buck Sexton leads a candid discussion on the breaking news that a federal judge has ordered the release of Ilmar Abrego Garcia, an alleged MS-13 gang member previously detained by ICE. This controversial ruling sparks debate about the legal wrangling surrounding deportations, the Supreme Court’s involvement, and the Trump administration’s efforts to treat MS-13 as a foreign terrorist organization. Buck frames the immigration crisis as a systemic failure spanning decades, criticizing both Democrats and establishment Republicans for enabling what he calls a “third-world invasion.” He cites expert commentary from Steven Miller, who argues that unchecked immigration impacts every major policy issue—from education and healthcare to crime and the federal deficit. Miller’s analysis underscores how subtracting illegal immigration from these metrics would dramatically improve outcomes, revealing the hidden costs of current policies. We Have to Draw a Line The conversation expands to Trump’s stance on merit-based immigration, including his blunt remarks about prioritizing immigrants from high-functioning countries like Norway and Denmark over those from unstable regions plagued by crime and terrorism. Buck explores the cultural implications of mass migration, questioning whether America can maintain its identity amid tens of millions of illegal immigrants—estimated at 20 to 30 million today. He warns that Democrats’ push for amnesty and open borders could permanently alter the nation’s political and social fabric. Listeners hear Buck dismantle common pro-immigration narratives, challenging the notion that assimilation is automatic. He points to examples in Europe, where large migrant populations have resisted integration, fueling crime and cultural clashes. Buck emphasizes that shared language, law, and culture are essential for national unity, advocating for stronger enforcement and a slowdown in immigration to preserve American values. The hour also touches on DHS Secretary Noem’s testimony on Capitol Hill, where she defends Trump’s immigration policies against Democratic attacks. Buck critiques media coverage, particularly CNN’s framing of the issue, and calls for honesty about historical immigration patterns and their consequences. He argues that America’s foreign-born population has reached unsustainable levels, making assimilation and economic stability increasingly difficult.

Hour 3 of the Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show delivers a powerful mix of economic analysis, housing affordability challenges, healthcare reform debates, and a sobering update on the Charlie Kirk assassination case. Buck Sexton hosts solo, emphasizing that the economy remains the number one political issue heading into the midterms. The hour begins with White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt outlining President Donald Trump’s commitment to fixing affordability and reversing the damage caused by Biden-era inflation. Buck underscores the urgency of addressing skyrocketing housing costs—up 50–60% nationwide—and explores potential solutions, including deregulation, faster permitting, and even a national housing emergency declaration. He critiques the Federal Reserve for being “too little, too late” on interest rate cuts, arguing that aggressive monetary policy is essential to restore balance in the housing market.The conversation pivots to breaking news: the alleged assassin of Charlie Kirk appears in court in a closed session. Buck previews an upcoming interview with Erica Kirk, Charlie’s widow and CEO of Turning Point USA, who condemns the disturbing online celebration of her husband’s murder. Buck frames this tragedy as a stark reminder of the cultural and moral decay fueled by extremist ideology, warning that the fight for America is not only political but deeply spiritual. Next, Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin joins the show to discuss economic recovery, healthcare reform, and legislative priorities. Johnson explains that permanent dollar devaluation under Biden has locked in higher prices, making affordability a long-term challenge. He advocates for reducing regulatory barriers to housing construction and warns that Democrats are obstructing progress to sabotage Trump’s success. On healthcare, Johnson identifies the third-party payer system as the root cause of soaring costs, calling for a return to consumer-driven models through Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) and free-market competition. He highlights examples like cash-only surgical centers offering procedures at one-tenth the cost of hospitals, illustrating the potential for dramatic savings. The senator also addresses judicial confirmations, oversight of vaccine injuries, and the need to dismantle Obamacare’s consolidation of healthcare markets. Looking ahead to 2026, Johnson stresses that Republican messaging on economic and healthcare solutions will be critical to maintaining Senate control, especially in battleground states like Michigan and Wisconsin. Buck closes the hour with optimism about Trump’s economic agenda, citing Howard Lutnick’s bullish forecast of 4–6% GDP growth under policies focused on lowering interest rates, cutting energy costs, and eliminating taxes on tips and overtime. Listener talkbacks add a personal touch, with humorous exchanges on Christmas traditions, Broadway’s Hamilton, and firearm preferences, reinforcing the show’s blend of serious analysis and relatable conversation.
