Verdict with Ted Cruz · Bonus: Daily Review with Clay and Buck - Jul 23 2026 · 23 Jul 2026 podcast

You know, he's a 35-year hunter.

He's incredible.

So, you know, having him in the vehicle, his knowledge base, we were good.

And really the reality is if you keep inside that vehicle forever,

you know the silhouette they're used to that all day long so you're you're i say you know 90 safe the only time is if there's a stampede in the night and the buffaloes run in or a bull elephant comes over and knocks in it but other than that like you're good to go very cool right have you ever done a safari anything like that buck

It was the most significant thing that's come out of this administration in terms of supportive veterans by far and active duty guys.

Because, you know, as we're ramping up in Iran, the probability of guys going over and continuing deployment cycles is getting higher and higher by the day for sure.

And what we've seen and the reason why it was so critical for me in this memorandum that Pete put out was,

last week was it was the first time that we saw a person at this level use the term operator syndrome.

So within that, it is this unique constellation of 17 different medical and behavioral health challenges that soldiers, sailors, airmen, Marines, and Coasties who have long-term exposure to high-risk training and deployments

The effects of that take over and create this operator syndrome.

One of the main ones is that is endocrine dysfunction.

And what happens is as you get in this hypervigilant state for years and years and years, it has a profound and negative impact on your endocrine system, thereby metabolic dysfunction, which then depletes testosterone production.

And so when you have low testosterone as an operator, it can affect mood, sleep, all these things.

So to see this memorandum for me in particular, because I've been fighting this battle with a couple of the gentlemen, Dr. Chris Free, Dr. Alok Madan, who wrote the original paper that was published in February 2020.

I've been in this fight with them to try and get this idea at the highest echelons of of government.

And thank God, you know, the secretary of war has made it an important thing now.

So it's going to be revolutionary to our warfighters.

Well, obviously, the biggest concern now is they're starting to hit our bases.

We had this unfortunate – we lost four service members, Lieutenant Feehan, Sergeant Rampersad, Private Gonzalez, and Sergeant Swinton, and my thoughts and prayers to them and their families.
