  • 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.
