Summary
In hour 3 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show, the hosts provided breaking news coverage of Iran's missile attack on a US base in Qatar. They reported that all Iranian missiles were intercepted with no American casualties, suggesting Iran had "effectively thrown in the towel" with what appeared to be a face-saving gesture following the weekend's impressive US B-2 bomber strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities. The hosts discussed how Iran seems increasingly isolated, with Saudi Arabia and Qatar both condemning the Iranian strikes, contradicting predictions that other nations would oppose US involvement.
The conversation shifted to New York City politics, with Buck (a former New York resident who relocated to Florida) and Clay discussing the concerning mayoral situation where Andrew Cuomo might be the "best case scenario" despite his controversial COVID-19 record and resignation over sexual harassment allegations. They examined how high taxes in states like New York, California, and Illinois are driving wealthy taxpayers to more affordable states like Florida, Tennessee, and Texas. The hosts also addressed some criticism from Republican figures, particularly Marjorie Taylor Greene's claim that the US was entering "World War III," which they characterized as an overreaction to current events in the Middle East. The hour concluded with Clay thanking WTCM Newstalk 580, a new affiliate in Traverse City, Michigan.
