Welcome. It is a verdict to Senator Ted Cruz. Ben Ferguson with you. Senator, we've got a lot to talk about, including Christopher Ray being grilled in front of the House side of Congress, and there were some very awkward responses from him. We're going to break all that down for everybody listening.

Plus, we don't just have cocaine at the White House.

that, Senator, there's a big victory that took place in the Foreign Relations Committee that's

going to have a huge impact on commerce,

not just in this country, but specifically as well with Texas.

Talk about this victory and what it means.

Well, that's exactly right.

It was a massive victory that we won yesterday for the state of Texas before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.

And it concerns commerce and trade with Mexico.

So Texas engages in a massive amount of trade with the nation of Mexico.

About $800 billion a year is the value of the goods and services that travel north and south

and cars that are driving across the Rio Grande, either north from Mexico to Texas or south

from Texas to Mexico.

And there's an enormous amount of, whether it's agricultural trade and commerce or manufacturing

trade and commerce or auto parts.

It's just a massive volume.

The Biden administration, bizarrely, has been doing everything it can to slow walk new bridges

across the Rio Grande, new bridges to Mexico.
