1. Dunking on Gavin Newsom
- Ted Cruz responds to a tweet by Newsom blaming Trump for rising electricity prices.
- Cruz uses AI (Grok) to highlight that the states with the highest electricity rates are Democrat-led with strong renewable energy mandates.
- He argues that liberal policies, not Trump, are responsible for high energy costs.
- The discussion includes a critique of renewable energy mandates and infrastructure challenges in blue states.
2. Democrats’ “Forbidden Words”
- The think tank Third Way released a memo listing 45 words/phrases Democrats should avoid, claiming they alienate everyday Americans.
- Examples include: “privilege,” “birthing person,” “microaggression,” “cisgender,” “food insecurity,” and “environmental violence.”
- Cruz and Ferguson mock the list, comparing it to George Carlin’s “seven dirty words” and argue that the problem isn’t just language but ideology.
3. SCOTUS Victory for Trump on DEI Grants
- The Supreme Court ruled 5–4 in favor of the Trump administration, allowing it to cancel $783 million in NIH grants tied to DEI and gender ideology.
- The ruling was based on jurisdictional grounds—plaintiffs filed in the wrong court.
- Justice Amy Coney Barrett was the swing vote, siding with conservatives on the funding issue but not on reversing DEI guidance.
- Cruz and Ferguson discuss the implications for future lawfare and judicial activism.
