Go Woke, Go Broke Jun 23, 2022

Show notes

14 Republicans cave to the Democrats in support of gun control legislation (talk about a major red flag), and now Senator Ted Cruz joins his co-host Michael Knowles straight from Capitol Hill to break down what’s inside this piece of legislation and what’s next in this heated debate. And across the way in The Marble Palace, liberal justices accuse conservatives of dismantling "the wall of separation between church and state" in the latest SCOTUS decision, but they’re missing one key thing about the Constitution. Plus, in case you’re keeping count, it's officially 2 for Verdict, 0 for Hollywood.

To Absurdity and Beyond! Jun 17, 2022

Show notes

Is this a record?!? TWO North American leaders attack Senator Ted Cruz in a single week! What did he do to piss them off—and when will Trudeau join the party? The Senator joins Michael Knowles to take a wild ride through the week’s wacky events including Biden blaming #Bidenflation on Republicans, the quandary of loot boxes (shoutout to Twitch streamer Asmongold for asking), and Disney’s penchant for, apparently, lesbian toy lovers. Plus, Nancy Pelosi takes to the drag stage. Yes, you read that right. We wish we were kidding.

How To Not Destroy Our Government ft. Senator Mike Lee Jun 14, 2022

Show notes

We could be days away from the biggest Supreme Court ruling in our lifetime, and Democrats are foaming at the mouth as they consider ways to pack the Court and tip the scales of justice. What hangs in the balance is nothing less than the fate of our government and our nation. U.S. Senator and former Supreme Court clerk Mike Lee returns to Verdict to sit down with U.S. Senator and former Supreme Court clerk Ted Cruz and Michael Knowles to discuss the magic number nine—and why it is so important to the future of the Court. Plus, in light of the leak and new attempted violence against the Justices, we recall Senator Schumer's words on the steps of the Court. Can we Save The Nine?

Matt Walsh recently embarked on a journey around the world to ask one, simple question: “What is a woman?” Now, this exclusive documentary is available to watch only for members of The Daily Wire. Check it out at https://whatisawoman.com.

Libs Gone Wild Jun 09, 2022

Show notes

Inflation is at a 40-year high, crime is through the roof, and drag queens are jiggling for little kids. Americans have had enough. And the kicker? Democrats are doubling down. While the radical Left marches in lockstep toward defeat at the ballot box, most of America is left asking “what the hell are you thinking?!” Senator Ted Cruz joins Michael Knowles to dissect the Democrat's extremism and break down what it means for all of us, and also for November. Do the Dems have any idea what’s coming? Plus, REVEALED: the Senator loses a poker game to his grandma.

The Nature of Evil Jun 02, 2022

Show notes

"But the guns!” The problem with this tired demagoguery is two-fold, and, on the heels of his lib-triggering appearance at the NRA’s annual meeting this week, Senator Ted Cruz joins co-host Michael Knowles to break down what the Left is really trying to do and to discuss the real issue at hand: a deep-rooted rot that is infecting our culture and our children. And since we’re talking about crime, now that Michael Sussman is off the hook for lying to the FBI, what will come of the Durham investigation? Plus, did Hollywood finally grow a backbone? We’ll take things you never thought you’d hear on Verdict for 500, Alex!

Do Something May 27, 2022

Show notes

This is the refrain on the lips of every Democrat demagogue this week, but what exactly do they want us to do—and will it save lives? As families and neighbors mourn the loss of 21 precious lives in Uvalde, Texas, heartless hucksters inside the beltway and in front of TV cameras rush to advance their agenda on the back of this community’s trauma. Straight from his briefings with local police, Texas DPS, the FBI, prosecutors, and school administrators, Senator Ted Cruz joins Michael Knowles to detail what we know at this point, and how parents and others in the community are being forced to deal with their grief while fending off vultures in the media. Plus, we know the “solutions" Chuck Schumer is calling for aren’t solutions at all, but what CAN we do that would actually save lives?

The Opinion of the Court May 19, 2022

Show notes

The Supreme Court rules in favor of our very own Senator Ted Cruz, striking down a portion of McCain-Feingold that unconstitutionally restricts the speech of candidates for political office. The man of the hour himself joins Michael Knowles to examine what this victory for free speech means for the future of campaigning and, more urgently, what it means for the 2022 elections. The Senator also sheds light on the Senate's 86 to 11 vote to approve $40 billion in funding for Ukraine. What's in the bill, now headed for Joe Biden's desk, and why did Senator Cruz vote for it? Plus, in a lightning mailbag round, Michael drops a #Megxit conspiracy theory and the Senator responds to Verdict listeners.

Lying Sacks Of Crap May 13, 2022

Show notes

With no one left to out-sleaze but themselves, America’s bigoted media elites up their game. Senator Ted Cruz joins Michael Knowles straight from the Senate floor on the heels of the vote that defeated the radical Left’s national abortion agenda—and the amount of daylight between the reporting and the facts is blinding. And as the far-left Democrat machine sics its intimidation mobs on the families of our nation’s top justices, the media goes for a second KO: “mostly peaceful,” anyone? In the mailbag, your favorite principled podcasters look at the ideological composition (and future) of the GOP, address rumblings about “national divorce,” and reveal how they take their ☕️

Big Sister Is Watching May 06, 2022

Show notes

Mere days after Elon and Twitter announced their engagement, Biden moves to create America’s very own Ministry of Truth. Led by radical Nina Jankowicz and draped in the costume of fighting “foreign disinformation,” the “Disinformation Governance Board” will surely be a blank check for free speech crackdowns here at home. The questions are swirling. How will this board operate? What enforcement powers will be granted to the Musical Minister? Senator Ted Cruz joins Michael Knowles to reveal what exactly is so dangerous about this new federal power—created out of thin air and slipped past the American people under the darkness of the Supreme Court leak—and what can be done to stop it.
