Ep. 165 - Hidden in Plain Sight
from The Jennifer Bukowsky Show Hosted by 93.9 The Eagle
This week, I’m back from the Republican National Lawyers Association’s National Election Law Seminar with a LOT to talk about—including an extraordinary conversation with Sen. Ted Cruz about what he believes is a growing Islamist threat hiding in plain sight in America. First, we head to Minnesota, where a viral undercover video sent me down a rabbit hole into the state’s election laws. Can a voter really show up without photo ID and vouch for other people who also have no ID? Yes—and what I found when I dug into Minnesota’s same-day registration and vouching system is even more remarkable. Then I’ll tell you about my conversation with Sen. Cruz and his recent Senate hearing, **“Hidden in Plain Sight: Confronting the Muslim Brotherhood Network in America.”** We’ll examine the “Grand Jihad” memorandum, secret FBI recordings from the 1990s, the Holy Land Foundation prosecution, allegations involving CAIR, and why Cruz believes the federal government stopped following the trail. On the criminal docket: Luigi Mangione has pleaded guilty in the federal case involving the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. I’ll explain exactly what he admitted, the sentencing gamble he is making, and why the plea could create a fascinating double-jeopardy fight in New York. Plus: an Iranian “black widow” accused of killing multiple husbands, a remarkably ironic WashU lawsuit involving mandatory anti-racism training, a major border-wall legal victory, the Golden Cabinet, and more. It’s law, politics, crime and the stories hiding underneath the headlines.
