Verdict with Ted Cruz
We're not WORTHY or READY for Michelle, a Gambling Curveball in Pro Sports & the Ongoing Atrocities against Christians in Nigeria Week In Review
22 Nov 2025
1. Michelle Obama and Presidential Politics The discussion begins with Michelle Obama’s comments about not running for President of the United States. She stated that America is “not ready for a woman president,” citing sexism and societal immaturity. Her stance is arrogant and condescending, and she argues that Democrats blame election losses on bigotry rather than policy failures. Historical comparisons are made to how Democrats shifted toward the center after losing multiple elections in the 1980s. 2. Sports Gambling and Corruption The conversation shifts to sports betting, particularly prop bets (bets on specific aspects of a game rather than the outcome). Allegations of corruption in Major League Baseball (MLB) and the NBA are discussed, including: Criminal indictments against players accused of manipulating game elements for profit. Example: Cleveland Guardians pitchers allegedly threw pitches to influence bets, earning hundreds of thousands of dollars. Broader concerns about integrity in sports and the potential need for congressional action are raised. Prop bets create incentives for individual players to cheat because they can control outcomes like pitch speed or fouls. 3. Persecution of Christians in Nigeria The final section addresses religious persecution, focusing on radical Islamic terrorism in Nigeria. Boko Haram is identified as a major perpetrator, responsible for killing over 50,000 Christians since 2009 and destroying thousands of churches and schools. The discussion highlights U.S. legislative efforts to designate Nigeria as a “Country of Particular Concern” and impose sanctions on complicit officials. Former President Trump’s tweet acknowledging the crisis and calling for action is quoted. The speakers criticize Tucker Carlson for allegedly downplaying or dismissing the persecution of Christians in Nigeria, linking this stance to broader issues of antisemitism and extremism.
