  • Cruz’s Visit to El Salvador

    • Cruz is in El Salvador meeting with President Nayib Bukele, government officials, U.S. military, and embassy staff.

    • He describes dramatic changes in safety under Bukele’s leadership—highlighting the crackdown on gangs, mass arrests of MS-13 members, and construction of a mega-prison.

    • Cruz emphasizes the murder rate dropping from the highest in the world (100 per 100,000 in 2015) to 1.9 per 100,000 in 2024, a 98% decrease.

    • He contrasts Bukele’s tough-on-crime approach with U.S. cities that, in his view, are paralyzed by progressive policies.

    • Cruz stresses that security improvements are also prompting reverse migration: Salvadorans in the U.S. are reportedly returning home.

  • MS-13 and U.S. Politics

    • They discuss Kamar Abrego Garcia, an MS-13 member from Maryland involved in human trafficking and domestic abuse, who is facing deportation.

    • Cruz criticizes Democrats, particularly Senator Chris Van Hollen, for being sympathetic to such individuals instead of supporting law and order.

    • This segment is framed as an example of Democrats prioritizing criminals over public safety.

  • Cracker Barrel & “Go Woke, Go Broke”

    • Cruz and Ferguson mock Cracker Barrel’s recent rebranding decisions, claiming the company abandoned its traditional customer base for “woke” marketing strategies.

    • They compare the backlash to similar situations with Bud Light and Target, noting plummeting stock prices and customer revolt.

    • Cruz highlights investor warnings that leadership ignored, framing the reversal as a victory for conservative consumer pushback.
