Summary

Biden Policies Aided a Terrorist Buck Sexton leads the hour with sharp commentary and analysis, emphasizing the growing strength of President Donald Trump in national polling across key issues like the economy, immigration, and border security. The segment highlights how recent CNN data reflects a significant shift in public sentiment favoring Trump, much to the dismay of Democrats and liberal media outlets. A major focus of the hour is the escalating crisis of antisemitism in America, particularly in the wake of a targeted firebombing attack in Boulder, Colorado. Buck discusses the ideological roots of this violence, linking it to radical anti-Israel sentiment and the broader rise of pro-Hamas activism on college campuses. He critiques the left’s framing of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, arguing that it is often reduced to a simplistic racial narrative that vilifies Israel and excuses terrorism. Overwhelm the System A deep dive into a recent terrorist attack in Boulder, Colorado, allegedly committed by an illegal immigrant who overstayed a visa. Buck uses this incident to underscore the broader crisis of illegal immigration and the exploitation of the U.S. asylum system. The conversation highlights how the Trump administration has dramatically reduced illegal border crossings—by as much as 99%—compared to the Biden era, which saw millions of illegal entries and “got aways.” Buck emphasizes the critical role of U.S. Border Patrol, debunking left-wing narratives that portray the agency as racist, and instead spotlighting its diverse and veteran-heavy workforce. A significant portion of the hour is dedicated to the ideological battle over antisemitism, particularly on college campuses, where anti-Israel sentiment is rising. Buck draws parallels between the situation in Gaza and Iran, arguing that while innocent civilians are caught in the crossfire, leadership and ideological extremism are to blame for ongoing violence. The show also critiques the Biden administration’s handling of immigration enforcement, asserting that lax policies have created a national security risk and opened the door to terrorist infiltration. Former ICE Director Tom Homan is quoted warning of the long-term consequences of these policies, calling for urgent reforms and a temporary halt to asylum claims. Our Favorite Data Nerd, Ryan Girdusky Polling data reveals that the Republican Party, under President Trump, has closed the gap with Democrats on middle-class support and economic trust. The discussion includes insights from data guru Ryan Girdusky, host of the “Numbers Game” podcast, who argues that Democrats lack a compelling economic message and are losing ground due to internal disarray and weak leadership. Ryan discusses interviewing Alex Thompson about his book with Jake Tapper, which reveals Jill Biden’s influence and the financial motivations behind Joe Biden’s continued political career. Buck discusses the party’s lack of a clear successor and the growing influence of figures like Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Elon Knows Gov't is a Mess Elon Musk's criticism of the congressional spending bill, the state of the economy and inflation, the national debt and entitlement programs, and the host's personal health and fitness journey. Elon Musk pointed out that Big Government was going to happen no matter what party is in office. DOGE limitations. WH Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt with some positive economic news.

you poll on any important issue in the country right now, Trump is much stronger,

Tom Homan, the guy's just an all-star. You know, it's so nice to see. And this is true in a number of

the senior Trump administration roles. It's just so nice to have people who know exactly what they're doing and are totally in line with

the Trump agenda and they're making moves every day to that end. So I just think that is it is critical
