Shooter's Motive and Rhetoric's Role in Violence

• James Comey Indictment

  • The episode centers on the claim that former FBI Director James Comey was indicted on two counts of lying under oath to Congress.

  • Cruz and Ferguson argue that Comey falsely denied authorizing leaks to the press, while Andrew McCabe’s testimony and evidence suggest otherwise.

  • They frame this as proof that Comey politicized and weaponized the FBI against Donald Trump.

  • Comey’s public response is portrayed as political and deflective rather than factual.

  • The discussion also touches on the statute of limitations, prosecutorial strategy, and the likelihood of conviction.

  • Comey indictment sparks fierce political reactions nationwide

• Sniper Attack on Dallas ICE Facility (WATCH)

  • The podcast also covers a violent shooting at an ICE facility in Dallas, described as politically motivated.

  • Cruz personally recounts being on the scene shortly after the attack.

  • The shooter is linked rhetorically to left-wing ideology and anti-ICE sentiment, with parallels drawn to other recent politically motivated shootings.

  • The hosts criticize Democratic leaders for “demonizing” ICE and argue that their rhetoric fuels such violence.

• Political Framing

  • The episode repeatedly frames these events within a broader narrative of political weaponization, left-wing hypocrisy, and anti-Trump bias.

  • Cruz portrays Comey as a partisan actor, contrasting his own questioning of Comey with McCabe’s admissions.

  • Violence against law enforcement is positioned as a consequence of inflammatory rhetoric by Democrats.
