Welcome everybody to the Thursday edition of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton show. And I'm telling you, we got a lot to get into today. Big things happening. Lots of news. Our man, Clay Travis, enjoying a much-deserved vacation with the fam. He's with the boys and Lara out west. I think they're skiing. Having a great time. He sends you all high fives and hugs. He'll be back on Monday.

We have a bunch of things to get into. First of all, more on the aftermath of the detention and imminent deportation of Palestinian-S-Hamas activist Mahmoud Khalil.

edge of your seats. And if you're wondering, like, who is it? Oh, I'll tell you, because I think

if this is the case, things are looking really good for the Republicans in 2028.

And we've got a lot more to get into.

I want to throw out there for you,

800 282-282-282 on the phones.
