In this episode of The Big Ben Show, Ben Domenech breaks down the media frenzy over alleged “war crimes” tied to the Trump administration’s crackdown on narco-boats and why key details in early reporting didn’t hold up under scrutiny. Ben examines Senator Mark Kelly’s controversial comments, Pete Hegseth’s fiery response, and the political machine driving these narratives.

Later, investigative reporter Ryan Thorpe joins the show to expose the massive Minnesota welfare fraud networks including COVID-era food programs, housing scams, and the flow of stolen taxpayer dollars through Somali remittance channels.

Finally, Aimee Huber of First Choice Women’s Resource Centers and ADF attorney Gabby McIntyre discuss their Supreme Court battle against a sweeping New Jersey subpoena targeting donor lists, internal communications, and religious activity. They explain what the case means for free speech, nonprofit privacy, and pregnancy centers nationwide.
