Hour 1 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show, with guest host Brian Mudd, delivers a dynamic breakdown of the latest political developments, economic trends, and national security updates as the country heads into Independence Day. The hour opens with sharp commentary on House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries’ extended “magic minute” speech, a procedural move delaying the final vote on the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act." Mudd humorously critiques Jeffries’ filibuster-style tactics, drawing comparisons to Cory Booker’s past Senate performance and highlighting the strategic implications for House Republicans. The show dives deep into the legislative showdown in Congress, emphasizing the GOP’s push to pass President Trump’s signature bill before July 4th. Mudd explores the political theater surrounding the vote, including reactions from figures like AOC and Chuck Schumer, and the broader implications for Trump’s second-term agenda. A major focus of the hour is the economic impact of the BBB Act, with Mudd previewing upcoming segments that will detail tax cuts, job growth, and inflation trends. He notes that the U.S. inflation rate has dropped to 2.4%, the lowest since Trump’s previous term, while wage growth has outpaced inflation, leading to a 2% improvement in household purchasing power. The stock market, 401(k) balances, and savings rates are all reportedly at record highs, reinforcing the administration’s economic messaging. Mudd also highlights the dramatic drop in illegal immigration and crime rates, attributing these changes to the Lincoln Riley Act and enhanced border enforcement. He cites statistics showing 93% fewer attempted border crossings, 53% increase in ICE detentions, and significant reductions in homicides, robberies, and property crimes. The discussion includes controversial claims about the correlation between non-citizen populations and crime rates, framing it as a key issue in the administration’s immigration policy. The hour transitions into foreign policy, where Mudd and guest Jon Decker, iHeartRadio’s White House correspondent, analyze Trump’s recent NATO summit success, the crippling of Iran’s nuclear program, and new trade deals with the UK and Vietnam.

In Hour 3 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show, guest host Brian Mudd delivers breaking news as the House passes President Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" (BBB), setting up an Independence Day signing. Mudd highlights this legislative victory as the culmination of Trump's agenda being "signed, sealed, and delivered by Congress." The host details how the vote came down to a narrow margin (216-214) with some Republican holdouts creating last-minute drama before the bill ultimately passed. Mudd discusses several Trump administration victories, including ending Iran's nuclear program and securing NATO allies' commitment to increase their defense spending. He explains how the U.S. had been paying 68.7% of NATO's defense costs before Trump's intervention. The host also addresses immigration policy changes, referencing "alligator Alcatraz" - the transformation of a Manhattan five-star hotel from migrant housing into what will become America's largest detention and deportation facility, reallocated by the Trump administration. Throughout Hour 3, Mudd reflects on Trump's pattern of political resilience, comparing it to his personal life: "on top of the world, gets knocked down, goes through all kinds of crap, and then comes back and wins even bigger than before." He mentions potential future legislative targets like eliminating the Department of Education and IRS, framing the BBB passage not as an endpoint but as "just the beginning" of Trump's agenda implementation. The segment concludes with Mudd referencing Trump's viral "Daddy, you're my daddy" moment from the recent NATO summit.  Make sure you never miss a second of the show by subscribing to the Clay Travis & Buck Sexton show podcast wherever you get your podcasts! ihr.fm/3InlkL8  For the latest updates from Clay & Buck, visit our website https://www.clayandbuck.com/  Connect with Clay Travis and Buck Sexton: X - https://x.com/clayandbuck FB - https://www.facebook.com/ClayandBuck/ IG - https://www.instagram.com/clayandbuck/ YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/clayandbuck Rumble - https://rumble.com/c/ClayandBuck TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@clayandbuckFollow Clay & Buck on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/clayandbuckSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dixon, host of the Tudor Dixon Podcast on the Clay and Buck Podcast Network, is joined by political commentator Kyle Olson for a dynamic hour of political analysis and cultural commentary. They break down the rise of socialism in American politics, focusing on the Democratic nominee for New York City mayor, a self-described socialist with a controversial background in Palestinian activism.

Tudor comments on Michigan’s status as a northern border state and the challenges posed by illegal crossings from Canada. She highlights the Trump administration’s success in reducing border crossings and critiques the Biden administration’s immigration policies. A shocking anecdote involving a deported individual with cannibalistic behavior underscores the urgency of strong immigration enforcement.

Tudor breaks down the political drama surrounding the passage of the “big beautiful bill” in Congress, highlighting opposition from Rep. Thomas Massie and the potential impact on Donald Trump’s America First agenda. With the bill stalled due to concerns over the debt ceiling and government spending, Dixon emphasizes the importance of maintaining a Republican majority in the House to avoid future impeachment efforts and legislative gridlock. The segment also features criticism from Elon Musk, who threatens to primary Republicans supporting the bill, prompting pushback from GOP leaders who prioritize Trump’s endorsement. Dixon underscores Trump’s historic popularity among the Republican base and urges lawmakers to align with his policies to ensure continued momentum heading into the next election cycle.

Senate Passes Big, Beautiful Bill In Hour 1 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show, the hosts deliver a dynamic and timely breakdown of the Senate’s passage of the “Big Beautiful Bill”, a sweeping legislative package poised to reshape the political and economic landscape. Passed by a narrow 51-50 margin with Vice President JD Vance casting the tie-breaking vote, the bill now awaits President Donald Trump’s signature, expected by July 4th. This hour dives deep into the bill’s key provisions, including a $5 trillion debt ceiling increase, hundreds of billions allocated for border security and national defense, and a projected $3.3 trillion budget deficit increase through 2034. The hosts analyze the political drama surrounding the bill’s passage, highlighting opposition from Republican Senators Rand Paul, Tom Tillis, and Susan Collins, and the expected reconciliation process in the House. Lefty Language Games Analysis of the Senate’s passage of the “big, beautiful bill,” a major piece of legislation expected to stimulate economic growth, provide tax certainty, and enhance border security. The hosts emphasize the bill’s imperfections but argue its net benefits outweigh its flaws, especially in the context of a government that often lacks the political will to reduce spending. A significant portion of the hour is dedicated to the unsustainable trajectory of federal spending, with references to past efforts by figures like Ross Perot, Senator Ron Johnson, and Senator Rand Paul. The hosts critique both parties for failing to curb entitlement growth and highlight how slowing the rate of spending increases is misleadingly labeled as “cuts.” They also explore how artificial intelligence and productivity gains could potentially offset fiscal challenges, offering a rare optimistic note on economic innovation. The Art of the Possible The Big Beautiful Bill now heads back to the House, where the Freedom Caucus may voice opposition, but it’s expected to reach President Donald Trump’s desk for signature before the July 4th holiday. A major highlight of the hour is President Trump’s visit to “Alligator Alcatraz” in Ochopee, Florida, a remote airstrip facility intended for detaining and deporting illegal immigrants. Trump’s remarks emphasized deterrence, warning migrants against fleeing into the Everglades. The segment underscores the administration’s tough stance on immigration and sanctuary cities, with speculation that legal challenges may arise from cities defying federal deportation orders. Best Movie of the 21st Century? Clay and Buck debate the best movies of the 21st century, referencing a recent New York Times list. Films like The Dark Knight, There Will Be Blood, No Country for Old Men, and The Pianist are discussed, with particular praise for Heath Ledger’s iconic performance as the Joker. The conversation also includes listener favorites and humorous disagreements over ice cream flavors—particularly pistachio—and nostalgic TV shows like Knight Rider and The Dukes of Hazzard.

The hosts praise the facility’s strategic location and its role in Trump’s border enforcement agenda, while humorously debating the best way to escape an alligator encounter. Additional highlights include: Concerns over the BRICS nations’ efforts to de-dollarize and its potential impact on U.S. economic dominance. The looming expiration of Trump-era tax cuts, which could trigger the largest tax hike in U.S. history if not extended.

The hosts critique both parties for failing to curb entitlement growth and highlight how slowing the rate of spending increases is misleadingly labeled as “cuts.” They also explore how artificial intelligence and productivity gains could potentially offset fiscal challenges, offering a rare optimistic note on economic innovation. The conversation then pivots to a potentially transformative policy proposal: excluding illegal immigrants from congressional apportionment counts. The hosts argue that counting non-citizens in the census unfairly benefits Democrats in House seat distribution and advocate for a new census to correct what they see as a structural imbalance. They suggest this change could significantly alter the 2028 electoral map and reduce Democratic control in key districts. President Trump’s stance on this issue is spotlighted, with the hosts praising his leadership and vision. They also discuss Trump’s growing popularity within the Republican base, citing polling data that shows his approval surpassing even Ronald Reagan’s at a similar point in his presidency. The segment includes commentary on Trump’s resilience following an assassination attempt and his renewed alliance with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, signaling unity within the GOP. The hour concludes with a critique of left-wing housing policies, particularly those proposed by New York City Council candidate Zohran Mamdani. The hosts warn against the dangers of communal housing and government overreach, tying it back to broader concerns about socialism and economic freedom. Listeners are encouraged to stay engaged as the show continues to unpack the implications of these developments heading into the Independence Day holiday.

In Hour 3 of the Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show, the hosts deliver a dynamic and wide-ranging discussion packed with political analysis, cultural commentary, and listener interaction. The hour opens with breaking news from Capitol Hill, where the Senate passed a major piece of legislation—referred to as the “Big Beautiful Bill”—with Vice President JD Vance casting the tie-breaking vote. The bill now heads back to the House, where the Freedom Caucus may voice opposition, but it’s expected to reach President Donald Trump’s desk for signature before the July 4th holiday. A major highlight of the hour is President Trump’s visit to “Alligator Alcatraz” in Ochopee, Florida, a remote airstrip facility intended for detaining and deporting illegal immigrants. Trump’s remarks emphasized deterrence, warning migrants against fleeing into the Everglades. The segment underscores the administration’s tough stance on immigration and sanctuary cities, with speculation that legal challenges may arise from cities defying federal deportation orders. The hosts also explore the evolving Trump-DeSantis alliance, suggesting Florida Governor Ron DeSantis could play a future role in the Trump 2.0 Cabinet. They reflect on the administration’s early successes and the political realities of addressing the national debt, emphasizing the need for economic growth over tax hikes or drastic spending cuts. In a lighter segment, Clay and Buck debate the best movies of the 21st century, referencing a recent New York Times list. Films like The Dark Knight, There Will Be Blood, No Country for Old Men, and The Pianist are discussed, with particular praise for Heath Ledger’s iconic performance as the Joker.

Trump Keeps Winning The hosts highlight a series of recent wins for the Trump administration, including economic indicators, legislative developments, and media narratives shifting in his favor. WI Senator Ron Johnson's support for the "Big Beautiful Bill" in the U.S. Senate, which aims to address tax policy, border security, and healthcare reform. The bill is positioned as a major legislative victory for Republicans and a critical step toward repealing parts of Obamacare. Economic optimism under President Trump, with the stock market hitting all-time highs, gas prices at a four-year low, and inflation showing signs of retreat. The hosts credit Trump’s tariff strategy and economic leadership for these positive trends. WI Sen. Ron Johnson on Why He Flipped Tariff policy and trade negotiations, particularly with Canada, are discussed in depth. The hosts argue that Trump’s tough stance has led to increased federal revenue without the inflationary impact critics predicted. The 2026 Senate race in North Carolina, where Senator Thom Tillis will not seek re-election. Speculation surrounds a potential run by Laura Trump, which could reshape the GOP primary landscape. Media acknowledgment of Trump’s success, including segments from CNN and other outlets recognizing his growing political strength. Criticism of the Senate parliamentarian and the reconciliation process, especially regarding the exclusion of provisions like removing suppressors from the National Firearms Act. Healthcare reform and Medicaid expansion rollbacks, with Senator Johnson advocating for ending what he describes as a “financing scam” that incentivizes states to expand Medicaid under Obamacare. Cultural commentary, including critiques of progressive figures like Ketanji Brown Jackson and New York City political candidates, as well as a broader discussion on leadership, media bias, and conservative values.

They scrutinize Mamdani’s controversial rhetoric, including his refusal to condemn inflammatory slogans like “globalize the Intifada,” and raise concerns about the normalization of radical ideologies within the Democratic Party. A major theme of this hour is the economic exodus from high-tax, high-crime cities like New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles. The hosts argue that progressive tax policies and soft-on-crime governance are driving billionaires, businesses, and middle-class families to relocate to states like Florida, Texas, and Tennessee. They cite examples like Ken Griffin moving Citadel to Miami and emphasize how wealth migration is reshaping America’s economic map. The conversation also tackles the debate over capitalism versus socialism, with Clay and Buck defending capitalism as the engine of American prosperity.

The hosts warn that anti-capitalist policies threaten economic growth and personal freedom. Mayor Pete PSA Democrats won't be honest about why black male Democrats won't vote for the former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, particularly his standing among Black voters.

The hosts analyze the federal charges, including sex trafficking and racketeering, expressing skepticism about the prosecution’s ability to secure a conviction.

In Hour 1 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show, the hosts deliver a high-impact analysis of the escalating Middle East conflict, focusing on President Donald Trump’s decisive military action against Iran. This hour centers on the U.S.-led airstrikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities, marking a pivotal moment in global geopolitics and national security. The strikes, which targeted Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan, were described as a “spectacular military success,” effectively crippling Iran’s nuclear enrichment capabilities with minimal casualties. The hosts emphasize the strategic precision of the U.S. and Israeli military operations, highlighting the use of B-2 bombers and Tomahawk missiles from nuclear submarines—two components of the U.S. nuclear triad. They praise the Trump administration’s national security team, including figures like Pete Hegseth, Marco Rubio, JD Vance, and Tulsi Gabbard, for executing a leak-proof and tactically brilliant operation. A major theme throughout the hour is the uncertain Iranian response. As the show progresses, breaking news confirms that Iran launched missiles at U.S. bases in Qatar and Iraq, initiating what they call “Operation Baat Afa.” The hosts analyze the potential for escalation, weighing the risks of retaliatory strikes and the possibility of regime change. They stress that while Iran may attempt to save face with limited military responses, its isolation on the world stage—especially the lack of support from China, Russia, and neighboring Middle Eastern countries—limits its strategic options. The conversation also explores the domestic political fallout, with Democrats like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez calling for Trump’s impeachment in response to the strikes. The hosts contrast this with past administrations’ military actions, pointing out perceived double standards in media and political reactions. Drawing on personal experience, Buck Sexton offers insight into the dangers of mission creep and the lessons learned from U.S. involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan. Both hosts agree that while the strikes were necessary and effective, the U.S. must avoid deeper entanglement or nation-building efforts in Iran. This hour concludes with real-time updates on missile attacks, air defense activations, and President Trump’s presence in the Situation Room, underscoring the urgency and gravity of the unfolding conflict. The hosts reaffirm their support for the troops and stress the importance of continued vigilance as the situation develops.

Hour 2 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show dives deep into the political upheaval surrounding the New York City mayoral race, offering sharp analysis and insider commentary on the Democratic primary and its national implications. Clay and Buck are joined by WOR’s Mark Simone, who breaks down the surprising momentum of socialist candidate Momani and the controversial comeback attempt by former Governor Andrew Cuomo. The discussion highlights Cuomo’s problematic legacy, including his role in implementing no-bail laws, closing prisons, and mishandling the COVID-19 nursing home crisis—policies that have driven residents and businesses out of New York in droves. The hosts explore how ranked-choice voting could dramatically influence the outcome, potentially delaying results for days and enabling strategic alliances among candidates. Simone predicts a rare five-way general election featuring Momani, Cuomo, current Mayor Eric Adams, Republican Curtis Sliwa, and another independent. The conversation underscores the broader political stakes, suggesting that New York City’s election could serve as a national barometer for the Democratic Party’s direction in the Trump era. Listeners also hear about the economic and social consequences of a potential Mamdani victory, including threats from major business owners to leave the city. The hour wraps with a broader reflection on the psychological resistance among liberal voters to admit policy failures, and how this mindset perpetuates urban decline in Democrat-led cities. This episode is essential listening for anyone tracking the 2025 political landscape, the resurgence of President Donald Trump, and the future of America’s largest city under the shadow of radical progressive politics.

The hour opens with coverage of President Trump’s pivotal role at the NATO summit, where he continues to push allies to meet their defense spending commitments. The hosts highlight how Trump’s influence has reshaped NATO’s strategic posture, with European leaders even echoing his rhetoric, including a notable moment where the NATO chief jokingly referred to Trump as “daddy.” The conversation transitions into a critical analysis of a recent intelligence leak to CNN and The New York Times. Buck Sexton, leveraging his intelligence background, explains the dangers of leaking classified information, especially when it undermines national security and the president’s foreign policy. The hosts explore the challenges of identifying leakers, the political motivations behind such actions, and the broader implications for U.S. intelligence integrity. A major segment is dedicated to the aftermath of a successful U.S. military strike on Iranian nuclear facilities. The hosts dissect conflicting media narratives, with Tulsi Gabbard and Israeli intelligence confirming the strike’s effectiveness, while legacy media outlets allegedly downplay the success using selectively leaked intelligence. The discussion underscores President Trump’s decisive leadership in neutralizing threats from Iran and the importance of transparency in national defense outcomes. Senator Marsha Blackburn joins the show to provide updates on the progress of the “Big Beautiful Bill,” President Trump’s signature legislative initiative. She confirms that the bill, which includes the largest tax cut in American history, is on track to be signed by July 4th. Key provisions include making the 2017 tax cuts permanent, eliminating taxes on tips, and protecting Social Security from taxation. Blackburn also discusses her recent ICE ride-along, emphasizing the Trump administration’s commitment to deporting criminal illegal aliens and securing the border. The hour wraps with a lighter but still politically charged segment on Florida’s proposed “Alligator Alcatraz” detention facility in the Everglades, designed to house illegal immigrants in a secure, natural barrier environment. The hosts also touch on invasive species in Florida and debunk common myths—like the presence of flamingos in the state. Finally, the show briefly covers the latest developments in the high-profile Sean “Diddy” Combs trial, predicting a potential hung jury due to lack of consensus on the charges.

Supreme Court Rulings: The show breaks down two pivotal 6-3 decisions. The first limits the power of federal judges to issue universal injunctions, a move seen as a major victory for President Trump’s administration and a rebalancing of judicial authority.

Ending Birth Tourism A celebration of major Supreme Court rulings, including a pivotal 6-3 decision that limits lower courts from obstructing Trump administration policies.

Parental rights are another major theme, with the show highlighting recent legal wins allowing parents to opt out of LGBTQ-themed educational content and supporting state-level restrictions on minors’ access to online pornography. These developments are framed as victories for religious freedom and family autonomy. The hosts also spotlight the booming economy, noting the S&P 500’s record highs, tamed inflation, and strong 401(k) performance.

Hour 2 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show delivers a powerhouse hour of political insight, economic analysis, and cultural commentary, centered around the ongoing momentum of President Donald Trump’s administration. This episode, part of what the hosts call the “Summer of Trump,” highlights a series of major victories for the current president, both in the courts and in public opinion. The hour opens with a strong focus on the booming U.S. economy, with the S&P 500 reaching record highs. Clay and Buck emphasize how Trump’s economic policies, including tariffs and tax reforms, have defied critics and bolstered Americans’ 401(k)s, retirement accounts, and college savings. The hosts credit the administration’s strategic moves for this financial upswing. A major theme of this hour is the Supreme Court’s landmark rulings, which the hosts describe as monumental wins for President Trump. These decisions affirm the constitutional powers of the presidency, limit the ability of lower courts to issue nationwide injunctions, and pave the way for Trump’s policy agenda—including immigration reform, ending sanctuary city funding, and halting taxpayer-funded transgender surgeries. The show also dives into shifting voter demographics, citing Pew Research data that shows President Trump making historic gains among Hispanic and Black voters. Trump nearly flipped the Hispanic vote nationwide and secured a record percentage of support from Black men for a Republican candidate in the post-civil rights era. These trends, the hosts argue, signal a political realignment that could reshape future elections. Clay and Buck also analyze the impact of the “Big Beautiful Bill”, a sweeping legislative package that promises long-term tax savings and policy codification. They discuss the role of the Senate parliamentarian in shaping the bill and express frustration over traditional procedural hurdles that could limit its scope. In a compelling segment, the hosts reflect on the one-year anniversary of Joe Biden’s debate performance, which they argue marked the beginning of his political decline. They contrast this with Trump’s confident and commanding presence in a recent press conference, where he reaffirmed his leadership and addressed key issues like Iran’s nuclear ambitions. The hour features commentary from May Mailman, Deputy Assistant to the President, who breaks down the legal significance of the Supreme Court’s decisions and the administration’s stance on religious liberty in schools. The discussion includes a ruling allowing parents to opt out of LGBTQ+ curriculum on religious grounds, which the hosts hail as a victory for parental rights and religious freedom. Listeners also hear from President Trump himself, who outlines his administration’s next steps following the Supreme Court’s rulings. He discusses the potential to revisit policies like ending birthright citizenship and reinforces his commitment to national security, including a firm stance on Iran’s nuclear program.

The segment opens with a celebration of major Supreme Court rulings, including a pivotal 6-3 decision that limits lower courts from obstructing Trump administration policies. The hosts emphasize this as a reaffirmation of President Trump’s executive authority and a direct result of his transformative judicial appointments.

On border security, the show praises the administration’s success in achieving zero illegal crossings in the past month, attributing this to decisive leadership and effective enforcement. They also discuss the aftermath of military strikes on Iran, portraying them as a demonstration of American strength and strategic clarity. Throughout the hour, the hosts reflect on the lasting legacy of Trump’s 2016 victory, particularly its impact on the Supreme Court’s conservative majority. They argue that many of today’s 6-3 decisions would have gone the other way under a Hillary Clinton presidency, underscoring the generational significance of Trump’s win. In a lighter segment, the conversation shifts to wildlife encounters, including humorous debates about bears in Northern Michigan and childhood memories of feeding bears in Tennessee. The hosts also delve into celebrity culture, critiquing Jeff Bezos’s $100 million wedding in Venice and comparing the physical presence of tech moguls like Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg.

PC Pres Corps Hour 1 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show dives into the explosive fallout from a leaked intelligence report questioning the effectiveness of a recent U.S. military strike on Teran. Hosts Clay and Buck, alongside commentary from Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, launch a full-throated defense of the mission and President Donald Trump’s leadership, while sharply criticizing the mainstream media for what they describe as politically motivated reporting. The hour opens with a breakdown of the CNN and New York Times leaks, which suggested the strike may have failed. Buck Sexton, drawing on his intelligence background, explains the complexities of identifying leakers and the dangers of politicizing classified information. The hosts argue that the leak was a deliberate attempt by the “deep state” to undermine President Trump’s credibility and military success. Pete Hegseth’s fiery Pentagon press conference is a focal point, where he accuses the press corps of rooting against Trump and downplaying the bravery and precision of U.S. pilots. The segment includes a viral moment where Hegseth is questioned for not explicitly acknowledging female pilots, prompting a broader discussion on gender politics in the military and media. A former female military pilot calls in to express support for Hegseth, dismissing the controversy as media-driven nitpicking. Why What Happens in NY Matters Everywhere the political upheaval surrounding New York City's mayoral race, highlighting the rise of Democratic Socialist candidate Zohran Mamdani. Clay and Buck analyze the implications of Mamdani's nomination, emphasizing how his progressive platform—backed by figures like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Bernie Sanders—signals a broader shift within the Democratic Party. They explore the national ramifications of this political momentum, warning that what happens in New York could soon influence Democrat-led cities across the country. The hosts critique Mamdani's proposals, including an 800% increase in funding for hate crime prevention and his assertion that the criminal justice system is inherently racist. They argue these initiatives are more about left-wing indoctrination than effective governance. The conversation also touches on Mamdani's savvy use of social media and his appeal to younger voters, many of whom are financially supported by their parents and drawn to socialism despite benefiting from capitalism. Local Story with National Reach Eric Adams, the current NYC mayor, is portrayed as a potential moderate counterweight, possibly running as an independent. The show discusses the strategic challenges Adams faces, especially if former Governor Andrew Cuomo enters the race, potentially splitting the anti-Mamdani vote. The hosts also examine the fractured state of the Democratic Party, debating whether it can still suppress far-left candidates or if it will continue to “double down on crazy.” President Donald Trump is referenced as a stabilizing force, particularly in contrast to the chaos the hosts associate with progressive policies. They highlight the effectiveness of Trump-era immigration enforcement, with praise for figures like Tom Homan and Stephen Miller, and criticize sanctuary city policies that undermine federal law enforcement. The hour concludes with a broader cultural critique, linking the rise of socialism to generational entitlement and a rejection of meritocracy. The hosts argue that capitalism’s success has ironically enabled the luxury of anti-capitalist sentiment, particularly among younger, affluent urban voters. Do You Buy This Story? Jamaal Bowman's questionable story about being yelled at by a white dude in Yonkers, NY. Media bias and the decline of CNN’s credibility. Jake Tapper lectures us on the purpose of journalism. Clay and Buck point out that CNN has become a partisan outlet, losing its former status as a trusted news source. They discuss whether the network is salvageable and propose that only a radical overhaul—possibly led by a figure like Megyn Kelly—could restore its relevance. The show also explores internal divisions within the Democratic Party, sparked by Chris Cuomo’s criticism of the party’s far-left wing, including figures like AOC and Bernie Sanders. The hosts argue that the Democratic Party is increasingly dominated by anti-capitalist, radical progressive ideologies, which they claim alienate moderate voters and threaten national unity. Further discussion includes the media’s treatment of conservatives, the legacy of Trumpism, and the broad coalition President Trump has built, including former Democrats like Tulsi Gabbard and RFK Jr. The hosts highlight how Trump’s second term is marked by a more strategic and media-savvy administration.

A former female military pilot calls in to express support for Hegseth, dismissing the controversy as media-driven nitpicking. The conversation then shifts to media bias, with Clay and Buck highlighting how left-leaning outlets like MSNBC and The New York Times prioritize partisan attacks over objective journalism. They also explore the influence of Fox News personalities in the Trump administration, praising the communication skills of figures like Hegseth and Dan Bongino. Later in the hour, the hosts discuss the state of the intelligence community, estimating that while military personnel lean pro-Trump (60/40), civilian agencies like the CIA are more ideologically opposed. They revisit the case of Reality Winner as an example of ideological leaks and question the loyalty of some within the intelligence apparatus. The hour also touches on international affairs, including Trump’s NATO summit appearance, where he was humorously referred to as “daddy” by a NATO chief. This leads to a broader discussion on America’s role as the backbone of European security and the need for NATO allies to increase defense spending. Additional segments include commentary on cybersecurity threats, with news of a massive data breach affecting billions of login credentials, and a humorous critique of political correctness in sports, such as the NBA replacing the term “owner” with “governor.”
