## Resource

The media doesn't want to tell the truth about the Gracie Mansion bombing, and Texas' Senior Senator runs to save his job. On this edition of The Big Ben Show, host Ben Domenech dives into the escalating tensions in Iran and the "naive" political analysis surrounding President Trump’s military strategy. Ben is joined by Rafael Mangual of the Manhattan Institute to break down a recent attempted terror attack outside New York’s Gracie Mansion, and why Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s "de-policing" platform poses a threat to public safety. Later, Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) joins the podcast to discuss his high-stakes runoff campaign, the urgent need for the Save America Act, and why he is now open to changing Senate filibuster rules to secure the border and protect election integrity. Ben also takes a hard look at the media's framing of voter ID laws and the absurd claims of disenfranchisement. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
