What's Next after Kirk's Tragedy, Christians Persecuted in Nigeria & Tucker plus Osama Bin Laden Equals Week In Review

  • The assassination of Charlie Kirk

    • They frame Kirk’s death as a political assassination, comparing it to historical killings of JFK, Bobby Kennedy, and Martin Luther King Jr.

    • The hosts emphasize concerns about political violence, the dangers of polarization, and left-wing reactions online.

    • They highlight messages of unity from unexpected voices on the left, such as Cenk Uygur, while contrasting that with those celebrating Kirk’s death.

  • Persecution of Christians in Nigeria

    • Cruz details violence by Boko Haram and ISIS-West Africa, citing statistics of tens of thousands of Christians killed and thousands of churches destroyed.

    • He introduces the Nigeria Religious Freedom Accountability Act of 2025, which seeks to:

      • Classify Nigeria as a “country of particular concern” for religious freedom.

      • Keep Boko Haram and ISIS-West Africa labeled as terrorist groups.

      • Sanction Nigerian officials complicit in persecution.

    • The discussion connects this to broader issues of U.S. foreign policy, criticizing past administrations (especially Obama and Biden) for not doing enough to defend persecuted Christians.

  • Tucker Carlson’s controversial statements

    • Carlson’s remarks about offering condolences to Osama bin Laden’s family, questioning Hamas’s designation as a terrorist group, and sympathetic portrayals of Russia and Iran are strongly criticized.

    • Cruz and Ferguson accuse Carlson of moral relativism, equating his views with those of progressive politicians like Ilhan Omar or Rashida Tlaib.

    • They reaffirm that groups like Hamas, al-Qaeda, and ISIS are terrorist organizations, citing both U.S. and international designations as well as historical attacks.

New Data Proves False Economic Numbers Under Biden plus an Exclusive w Astronaut Sunita Williams

  • Jobs and Economic Data Disputes

    • The speaker accuses the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) of fabricating or severely misreporting job creation numbers during the Biden administration.

    • It highlights a major revision showing nearly 1.9 million fewer jobs created between April 2024 and March 2025 than originally reported.

    • The narrative frames this as deliberate deception to make the economy look stronger before the 2024 election.

    • Trump is portrayed as the one correcting the record by firing the BLS commissioner (appointed under Biden) and nominating a replacement.

    • Economic analysts like Steve Moore are cited to argue the jobs data is unreliable and politicized.

  • Crime, Race, and Media Coverage

    • The second major section shifts to a violent crime case in Charlotte, NC, involving the murder of a Ukrainian refugee, Arena Zarutzska.

    • The accused, DeCarlos Brown Jr., is described as a repeat offender released under lenient bail policies.

    • The commentary emphasizes that major media outlets (AP, New York Times, NPR, etc.) ignored the case because it involved a Black perpetrator and a White victim, contrasting it with extensive George Floyd coverage.

    • White House Press Secretary Caroline Levitt is quoted condemning Democratic policies like cashless bail and arguing Trump is taking steps to reverse them.

    • The narrative frames the incident as evidence of systemic failure due to progressive criminal justice reforms.

  • Space Exploration Interview

    • The final section changes tone to a lighter, inspirational topic: an interview with astronaut Sunita (Sonny) Williams.

    • She discusses her unexpectedly extended nine-month stay on the International Space Station, the challenges of readjusting physically after returning, and the upcoming Artemis missions to the Moon.

    • She highlights teamwork, resilience, and the excitement of potential lunar missions within the next few years.

Autopen Bombshell was VP Harris actually POTUS plus Falsified Economic Data means Inherited a “Massive Mess"

1. Biden Autopen & Clemency Decisions

  • Sources claim newly uncovered internal White House memos and emails suggest that during Joe Biden’s final year as president, some official decisions—particularly pardons and clemency actions—were not personally approved by him.

  • Instead, approval was allegedly delegated to Vice President Kamala Harris and possibly others, with many documents signed by autopen rather than Biden himself.

  • Specific examples include pardons for family members, Anthony Fauci, and General Mark Milley. It says only Hunter Biden’s pardon was hand-signed by Biden.

  • Raises the question of whether these pardons and commutations are legally valid if Biden did not directly authorize them.

2. Criticism of Job Data Under Biden

  • The second major focus is on employment numbers.

  • The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) is accused of massively overestimating job creation between April 2024 and March 2025 by nearly 1.9 million jobs.

  • The piece calls this a fraud-level revision, far beyond typical statistical error.

  • It claims the overstatement was politically motivated to make the economy look better during Biden’s reelection campaign.

3. Trump Administration’s Response

  • The commentary emphasizes that Donald Trump inherited a “massive mess” with falsified economic data.

  • Trump reportedly fired BLS Commissioner Erica McEntarfer (appointed by Biden) after a weak July 2025 jobs report and replaced her with a Heritage Foundation economist.

  • The White House under Trump frames these corrections as necessary to restore trust in federal statistics.
