Welcome, it is verdict with Ted Cruz Weekend Review. Ben Ferguson with you, and these are the

0:06.4

stories that you may have missed that we talked about this week. First up, Senator Marsha Blackburn

0:11.9

and Senator Ted Cruz have joined together asking for the Jeffrey Epstein flight logs to be made

0:17.9

public with a subpoena. What will happen moving forward and why are Democrats

0:22.7

blocking it? And we'll have that for you. Also, Israel funding. Democrats saying no, but they want you

0:29.3

to send billions to Ukraine. And now it's all involved with border security. We'll have the latest on that

0:35.2

financial fight. And finally, the latest with a Biden

0:38.7

impeachment inquiry moving forward and what this means for the days ahead. It is the weekend

0:44.7

review, and it starts right now. Senator, I want to move on to another issue this week that was

0:50.1

kind of shocking. Your colleague, Senator Marsha Blackburn from Tennessee, has asked for a

0:56.4

basic request, and that is, the Epstein flight logs. They exist. We should know who was on those

Do you want Epstein's flight logs to be out there? Yes. Do we want to know who was on those planes?

1:22.4

Yes. Do we want to know who's involved in this human and sex trafficking. Yes. So why is he defending it? And you may have been

1:29.2

as shocked as I was. This doesn't seem like a smart political move. Yet maybe there's so many

1:33.7

Democrats that he's trying to protect here are big donors. I don't understand it. Yeah, look. Durbin is

1:38.7

doing everything he can to cover this up, to hide the Jeffrey Epstein flight logs.

1:49.3

Take a look right here. This is a Fox News reporter questioning Dick Durbin as he walks to a judiciary committee hearing. Give a listen. I don't know anything about his flight logs.

1:54.5

Why won't you subpoena them? Why don't you want to know?

1:57.3

I don't know the issue. I know who Epstein was, but I certainly don't know anything about the issue.
