Welcome. It is verdict with Senator Ted Cruz, Ben Ferguson with you, and let me first say to all of you.

I hope that you are having a fabulous little break with your time for your family and your friends

from Christmas to New Year's. And it's important that we take a look back at some of the biggest

stories that happen in 2023 and the most important issues that may come up

in 2024 it is our year in review take a listen a pentagon email our letter that went to the

families from 9-11 who lost loved ones during that attack and the suspected mastermind of 9-11

attacks as well as four other

defendants apparently they could all escape the death penalty under a quote new plea deal where

they would plead guilty and then it would save their lives literally now there are a lot of people

that have direct connection 9-11 that are beyond furious over

this Khalid Sheikh Mohammed is the mastermind behind 9-11 he was the CEO of this 9-11 attack he was

the one that came up with it with osama bin Laden he had in his writings before we caught him

and had said publicly that his goal was to kill as

many Americans as possible and he wanted to have mass casualties not just on 9-11 but after 9-11

he also was planning other attacks as well that suspected mastermind now would be in essence

given a deal now senator, I think the pullback

the curtain here, you and I talked about this, is the fact that this seems to be the

department, the Pentagon and the Biden administration saying, no one wants these people, they're

too dangerous. He's five men, including the mastermind of 9-11. So we want to close down Gitmo, and the way we could

close it down is giving these five defendants a plea deal so we can wrap up Guantanamo Bay and say,

look, we close this thing down, aren't we great people? That is the most, I think, disgusting part of this deal is it's just for a political purpose for them.

This story is absolutely outrageous, and I think everyone hearing it should be shocked and should be furious.
