    The Truth with Lisa Boothe: John Lott Exposes Crime Data Manipulation, Media Bias & the Truth About Illegal Alien Crime
    Jan 15 2026

    In this episode, criminologist John Lott breaks down how crime statistics in the United States are being distorted — and why the public is being misled about the true state of public safety. Lott explains how major media outlets, the FBI, and local law enforcement agencies manipulate or underreport violent crime data, creating a false narrative that crime is declining even as communities experience rising violence.

    The conversation zeroes in on how crimes committed by illegal immigrants are frequently minimized or excluded from reporting, skewing national crime trends and masking the real impact of sanctuary city policies. Lott presents data showing elevated rates of violent crime among illegal aliens in places like New York, and explains how repeat offenders are often released back into the community despite serious criminal records.

    Lott also explores the demographic realities of violent crime — including how most crimes occur within similar racial and socioeconomic groups — and why ignoring these patterns leads to failed policy. He argues that political incentives, not public safety, now drive crime reporting and enforcement decisions.

  • Verdict with Ted Cruz: Legendary Coach Bruce Pearl One-on-One: Hoops, NIL & Anti-Semitism in America

    Verdict with Ted Cruz: Legendary Coach Bruce Pearl One-on-One: Hoops, NIL & Anti-Semitism in America
    Jan 15 2026
    This bonus episode of Verdict with Ted Cruz s a must-listen for college basketball fans, sports policy enthusiasts, and anyone concerned about cultural trends in America. Senator Ted Cruz and podcast co-host Ben Ferguson sits down with Bruce Pearl, retired Auburn basketball coach and outspoken advocate for Israel, to tackle three major topics: NIL reform, the future of college athletics, and the troubling rise of anti-Semitism in America. From Coaching Legend to Advocate and Analyst Bruce Pearl is no stranger to success. With over 700 career wins, multiple Final Four appearances, and a reputation for building winning programs, Pearl’s insights into leadership and perseverance are invaluable. What makes his story even more compelling? He never played organized basketball beyond high school. Instead, Pearl worked his way up from team manager at Boston College to assistant coach at Stanford, eventually becoming one of the most respected figures in college hoops. His philosophy? “Make yourself indispensable.” Pearl shared how his relentless work ethic—showing up early, staying late, and doing whatever needed to be done—opened doors that talent alone couldn’t. It’s a lesson for athletes and professionals alike: success often comes down to effort and attitude. NIL and the Wild West of College Sports One of the hottest topics in college sports news today is Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL). Pearl didn’t mince words: the NCAA’s failure to adapt created chaos. For decades, student-athletes generated billions in revenue for universities while receiving little beyond scholarships. Pearl called it “modern-day slavery,” describing how families struggled to afford travel while schools cashed in on TV deals and ticket sales. Now, the pendulum has swung the other way. Top-tier college football rosters can cost $35–$40 million annually, and boosters are essentially running payrolls. Pearl warned that this model is unsustainable: smaller schools and non-revenue sports like tennis, golf, and swimming are at risk of extinction. Without reform, college athletics could shrink to 30–50 elite programs, leaving countless opportunities behind. Senator Cruz echoed the urgency, revealing he’s been working on bipartisan NIL legislation to stabilize the system. The goal? Protect student-athletes’ rights while preserving the diversity of college sports. Cruz emphasized that “if Congress doesn’t act, the college sports we grew up with will be unrecognizable.” Key NIL Takeaways: NCAA’s resistance to change led to today’s chaos.Current NIL deals create massive financial gaps between programs.Without reform, Olympic and non-revenue sports could disappear.Congress may need to grant limited antitrust protections to allow fair negotiations. The Rise of Anti-Semitism—and Why It Matters Beyond sports, Pearl spoke passionately about his Jewish heritage and the alarming rise of anti-Semitism in America. Drawing on his family’s history—his grandfather fled Europe in 1929—Pearl stressed that American Jews should be among the nation’s greatest patriots. He warned against divisive theology and urged unity, reminding listeners that “silence is complicity.” Senator Cruz added a powerful perspective, noting that anti-Semitism often stems from ignorance and bad theology. He highlighted the shared roots of Christianity and Judaism, calling out replacement theology as “garbage” and reaffirming that God does not break covenant. Both Cruz and Pearl agreed: combating anti-Semitism requires courage, education, and solidarity. And while the trend is troubling, Pearl remains optimistic: “You can still be anything you want to be in this country.” Why Israel’s Strength Matters The conversation also touched on geopolitics. Cruz and Pearl discussed Israel’s resilience in the face of existential threats, emphasizing that peace in the Middle East is built on strength. Cruz pointed to the Abraham Accords as proof that nations respect power—and that America’s own security depends on maintaining military superiority. Pearl framed it simply: “The best way to avoid war is to be strong enough that no one wants to fight you.” Life Lessons from a Coach Pearl’s insights weren’t limited to policy. He shared timeless advice for young athletes: Play multiple sports in high school before specializing.Develop a dimension—something you do exceptionally well.Mental and physical toughness wins.Show up early, stay late, and make yourself indispensable. He also underscored the value of hiring former student-athletes: they understand discipline, teamwork, and sacrifice—qualities that translate to success in any field. Final Thoughts—and a Prediction The episode wrapped with a lighter moment: Pearl’s prediction for the college football national championship game. He picked Indiana over Miami, 28–24, while Cruz boldly predicted a blowout. Time will ...

    Daily Review with Clay and Buck - Jan 15 2026
    Jan 15 2026
    You're Fired! Clay and Buck open with breaking news of another ICE-involved shooting after agents were attacked during an arrest operation. The suspects—identified as Venezuelan illegal immigrants with final deportation orders—reportedly assaulted an officer, prompting him to fire in self-defense. This follows a string of violent confrontations and protests targeting federal agents, with ICE vehicles vandalized and weapons stolen from government vehicles. The hosts warn that Minneapolis has become the epicenter of Resistance 2.0, echoing the chaos of the 2020 BLM riots, and argue that President Trump must act decisively to prevent nationwide unrest. The conversation intensifies as Clay and Buck analyze Trump’s Truth Social post threatening to invoke the Insurrection Act if Minnesota officials fail to stop organized attacks on federal law enforcement. They frame this as a defining moment for Trump’s second term, contrasting his current posture with what they call the missed opportunity to crush BLM riots in 2020. Buck emphasizes that Democrats are weaponizing immigration enforcement as a political wedge, portraying ICE as “Gestapo” and encouraging obstruction—language that, they argue, incites violence against officers. Clay underscores the stakes: Trump cannot afford to break faith with voters on border security, making Minneapolis a “crucible decision” for his presidency. The Left Wants to Abolish ICE Clay and Buck open with sharp analysis of Rep. Shri Thanedar’s renewed call to abolish ICE, reviving a radical slogan first championed by AOC during Trump’s first term. They argue that Democrats’ strategy is clear: dismantle enforcement while keeping immigration laws on the books to avoid openly admitting their open borders agenda. This, they contend, is part of a long-term plan to reshape America’s demographics and political landscape. The hosts highlight Trump’s historic success in reversing decades of migration trends, noting that net migration turned negative in 2025 for the first time since the 1920s. Approximately 2.6 million illegal immigrants left the country through deportations and self-removal, a stark contrast to Biden’s border surge that saw monthly inflows soar to 200,000. Clay and Buck frame this as proof that Trump’s enforcement policies are working, even as Democrats and media allies attempt to undermine ICE operations by portraying agents as brutal and lawless. They warn that rhetoric from figures like Hakeem Jeffries—accusing ICE of “brutalizing American families”—is fueling hostility and setting the stage for violence against federal officers, echoing the chaos of 2020’s BLM riots. Gov't Makes Things Expensive The conversation then pivots to Trump’s new “Great Healthcare Plan,” unveiled by White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, which emphasizes affordability and transparency. The plan aims to permanently lower prescription drug prices, redirect subsidies from insurers to consumers, mandate public price disclosures to eliminate surprise bills, and hold insurance companies accountable with clear rate comparisons. Clay and Buck stress that Trump learned from Republicans’ 2018 midterm losses over healthcare and is now positioning affordability—alongside housing and credit card interest reform—as a cornerstone of his economic message. They argue that Trump’s proactive approach on healthcare and cost-of-living issues could resonate deeply with voters, contrasting his market-driven solutions with Democrats’ push for government control. Should We Buy Greenland? Updates on President Trump’s Greenland acquisition push, following high-level meetings between U.S., Danish, and Greenlandic officials at the White House. Clay and Buck explain Trump’s rationale for pursuing Greenland as a long-term national security asset, citing its strategic Arctic location, potential mineral wealth, and historical parallels to Seward’s purchase of Alaska and the Louisiana Purchase. They argue that Greenland could be critical for monitoring nuclear submarine activity and countering Russian and Chinese influence in the Arctic, framing Trump’s vision as a century-long play for American dominance rather than a short-term real estate flip.

I love these guys, I listen a few times a week, However, I have to manually do a search every time because audible will not let me follow this particular podcast for some reason. I follow others, but curiously, I can't follow a nice conservative one? I'm sure it has nothing to do with Amazon's political agenda or leanings. I'm sure it's an honest to God glitch.

Watch out for leftist Audible
