Raul Castro just got indicted by a federal grand jury for the murder of four Americans, and President Trump is making sure justice doesn't stop there. On this episode of The Jenny Beth Show, Jenny Beth Martin breaks down the historic Cuba indictment announced at the Miami Freedom Tower on Cuban Independence Day, the Trump endorsement that ended Thomas Massie's eight-term run in Kentucky, and the Texas runoff between Ken Paxton and John Cornyn that could reshape the Senate. Jenny Beth is joined by Hayden Ludwig, founder of restoration-news.com and host of the Restoration Spotlight Podcast, and Robert McNeely, Director of Broadcasting and Grassroots Engagement at Tea Party Patriots Action. Together they unpack the landmark Supreme Court decision in Louisiana v. Callais — a ruling Hayden says could create a permanent MAGA majority in the House by freeing 34 seats currently drawn to guarantee Democrat wins. Plus: Senator Ron Johnson's call to end the filibuster, the SAVE America Act fight, the abortion pill battle at the FDA, Secretary Pete Hegseth restoring service members' right to carry on base, North Carolina's charter school revolution, and why Mamdani's rent control plan is sending New York City into a spiral. If you care about election integrity, conservative jurisprudence, and the future of the America First movement, this is essential listening. Call the Capitol Switchboard at 202-224-3121 and tell your member of Congress to attach the SAVE America Act to every bill the House passes. Learn more at teapartypatriots.org and jennybethshow.com.
