Welcome, it is Verdict with Ted Cruz, Week in Review, Ben Ferguson with you, and here are some of the big stories that you may have missed that we talked about. First up, the Democratic candidate to replace Graham Plattner is a guy by the name of Troy Jackson. He may actually be even worse than Plattner, and we break it down. Also, Mondani in New York City, he's excited about his government-run grocery stores. Well, the big question is, how are they going to work and who's going to run them? We explain that as well. And finally, in a shocking bombshell story, we now have learned that months before Donald Trump was even elected to his second term in office, Democrat attorney generals were joining together to conspire to sue Donald Trump on every single issue.
It's the Week in Review, and it starts right now. Let's talk about the elections here in the midterm. One of the biggest one everybody was watching, we were heavily involved in this, was Graham Platner. Graham Platner was a radical extremist. He's a guy that had the SS tattoo on him. He was a guy that had countless warning signs. Democrats defended him at all costs until they thought he couldn't win anymore. Then they excommunicated him. But the replacement is not much better than Graham Plattner, which is the funny part of the entire story. It's like they just changed the name, but there's still the same set of major issues.
Well, it turned out we learned a lot about today's Democrats based on the main Senate race. We learned, first of all, that being a Nazi is just fine. That doesn't disqualify you from the Democrat Party embracing you. In fact, not just being a Nazi, but tattooing a Totenkampf, the image of the SS in the concentration camps on your chest. for almost every single major Democrat except John Fetterman, and Fetterman showed courage, but everyone else, A-OK. Being a communist, Plattner explicitly called himself a communist, A-OK with every national Democrat. Being a misogynist, repeatedly abusing women, not a problem. Hey, that's the Democrat Party. They're good with that. Insulting and denigrating veterans, great by them.
Hating Israel, great by them. Being an anti-Semite, no problem there. Look, you pile one or the other discussing your bizarre sexual fantasies and porta potties, which was just weird. I mean, I mean, let's just say that that is strange, by the way. Yeah, that's like you G rating it for real. But but you put all those together. And what does Elizabeth Warren say about Plattner? He's my kind of guy. What is Ro Khanna, someone who used to pretend to be a Democrat moderate? He comes and campaigns with him, says, all right, Nazi communists, this is who we are. Bernie Sanders, Bernie Sanders, all of them. And then what happened? The polling numbers took a turn down and they suddenly said, Graham, who? And and they defenestrated him.
All right, Ben, do you know what the word defenestrate means? I please educate me on this one.
Why do Ted Cruz and Ben Ferguson say Troy Jackson is a worse replacement for Graham Plattner in the Maine Senate race?
It's actually a great word. Defenestrate means to throw someone like the word of the week.
