The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show

Hour 1 of today’s Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show dives into a packed lineup of breaking news, political analysis, and cultural commentary as we head into Thanksgiving week. Clay opens the hour discussing record-breaking Thanksgiving travel trends, with over 82 million Americans expected to hit the roads and skies. He shares personal travel plans and sets the stage for a busy holiday week. The hour features major breaking news from the White House: President Donald Trump continues the annual tradition of pardoning Thanksgiving turkeys, Gobble and Waddle, in a ceremony filled with Trump’s trademark humor. Clay reacts to Trump’s remarks, including jokes about Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi, and highlights the president’s ability to make even ceremonial events entertaining. From there, Clay pivots to political developments in Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District, spotlighting a controversial Democratic candidate and urging local listeners to stay informed ahead of next week’s election. He emphasizes the importance of this race and contrasts far-left rhetoric with mainstream values. The discussion then shifts to President Trump’s first year in office, praising his administration’s achievements on border security and crime reduction. Clay underscores how Trump’s decisive actions have led to the most secure southern border in decades and dramatic crime declines in cities like Memphis, where murders are down 50%, assaults down 40%, and robberies down 60%. Nashville is also seeing historic lows in violent crime, reinforcing Trump’s “law and order” success story. Clay frames these wins within the EBC strategy—Economy, Border, Crime—that defined the 2024 election, noting that while border and crime issues have been largely resolved, the economy remains the key challenge heading into 2026 midterms. He candidly addresses lingering inflation concerns, rising consumer costs, and the political implications for Trump’s second year in office. Internationally, Clay breaks news on Trump’s behind-the-scenes peace negotiations. Working with Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff, Trump is reportedly brokering a potential Ukraine-Russia peace plan, following successful mediation in Gaza. Clay explains how Trump’s “deal-maker-in-chief” approach could deliver historic global agreements, even as skeptics question long-term security guarantees for Ukraine. The hour also includes Clay’s cultural commentary on gender and sports, reacting to a viral story about the “world’s strongest woman” title being revoked after it was revealed the winner was biologically male. He calls this a sign that common sense may be returning to competitive athletics. Finally, Clay closes Hour 1 with a humorous but heated debate on airline etiquette, labeling seat recliners as “travel terrorists” and sparking listener reactions through talkbacks. This lighthearted segment adds levity to an hour packed with serious news and sharp political insights.Follow Clay & Buck on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/clayandbuckSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this bonus episode of Verdict with Ted Cruz:   Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Resignation Greene announced she will resign from Congress in January. This is a significant moment for the Republican Party, emphasizing internal accountability and contrasting it with perceived Democratic inaction on radical elements. Greene’s shift from pro-Trump to anti-Israel and anti-capitalist positions is highlighted as a cautionary tale. Donald Trump’s withdrawal of support is portrayed as the decisive factor in her resignation. Minnesota Welfare Fraud Funding Al-Shabaab A report claims Minnesota taxpayers indirectly funded the terrorist group Al-Shabaab through massive welfare fraud. Fraud involved members of the Somali community in Minnesota, exploiting Medicaid programs like Housing Stabilization Services. Billions of dollars were stolen, with millions allegedly routed to Somalia and ultimately to Al-Shabaab via informal money networks. The commentary criticizes Democratic leadership and media for ignoring the issue, framing it as both a security threat and a failure of governance. Texas Redistricting Battle Texas redrew its congressional map to add five Republican seats. A federal district court struck down the map, but Justice Alito issued a stay, keeping the new map in place for now. This decision could determine control of the House and contrasts Republican and Democratic gerrymandering practices. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

The hour then shifts to a high-stakes congressional race in Tennessee’s 7th District, where Republican candidate Matt Van Epps faces Democrat Afton Bain. Clay warns listeners about Bain’s controversial past statements, including her disdain for Nashville, country music, and traditional family values, as well as her radical positions on gender and policing. He urges voters in Nashville, Franklin, Brentwood, and Clarksville to turn out for the December 2 special election, emphasizing that Democrats are pouring money into the race to flip a district Trump won by 20 points in 2024. Clay also tackles cultural flashpoints, criticizing Bain’s remarks about marriage and motherhood while advocating for expanded IVF support—a stance he credits President Trump for championing.

This segues into a broader cultural debate on dating, marriage, and gender roles, as callers weigh in on why modern relationships feel fractured. Clay explores how technology, social media, and shifting expectations have created a “buffet culture” for men, questioning whether what’s marketed as female empowerment has inadvertently fulfilled decades-old male fantasies of commitment-free intimacy.

Hour 1 of today’s Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show dives into major breaking stories and hard-hitting analysis. Buck Sexton is solo hosting while Clay is away on a super secret trip overseas for a very important meeting, and he kicks off the hour with updates on the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which is set for a vote during the program. Buck explains why Democrats are pushing this as a political distraction and emphasizes Donald Trump’s stance: full transparency and release of all Epstein-related documents. The discussion highlights Trump’s past actions, including banning Epstein from his club, and contrasts that with deep ties Epstein had to prominent Democrats like Bill Clinton and Larry Summers. Buck also addresses the media narrative and propaganda tactics, warning listeners about how focus and repetition are used to smear political opponents. He connects this to his upcoming book, Manufacturing Delusion, which explores the science and history of mind control, propaganda, and mass psychosis. Buck argues that Trump Derangement Syndrome has become a defining pathology of our time, citing expert commentary on how obsessive hatred of Trump has reached clinical levels. He draws parallels to authoritarian regimes and explains how manufactured hysteria threatens American democracy more than any external crisis. The hour also touches on national priorities overshadowed by political theater, including affordability, energy prices, border security, and the fight against fentanyl. Buck previews later segments featuring Miranda Devine’s explosive reporting on the would-be Trump assassin and Eric Trump’s insights on trade and the economy.

Hour 2 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show delivers breaking news and in-depth analysis on major political and cultural stories. Buck Sexton leads the hour with an exclusive interview featuring Miranda Devine of the New York Post, who reveals shocking details about Thomas Crooks, the would-be assassin of President Donald Trump. Devine explains how Crooks’ online footprint—spanning platforms like YouTube, Gab, and DeviantArt—shows a disturbing evolution from pro-Trump rhetoric to violent anti-Trump threats, including assassination fantasies. She highlights Crooks’ use of aliases, his ties to extremist forums, and even gender identity confusion, noting his adoption of they/them pronouns and links to the “furry” subculture. Devine questions why the FBI and Secret Service failed to act despite clear warning signs, raising concerns about possible agency negligence or concealment. The conversation pivots to Hunter Biden, after audio surfaces of him launching personal attacks on Devine, calling her unethical and insulting her appearance. Buck and Miranda dissect Biden’s behavior, emphasizing his inability to refute documented evidence of corruption involving foreign business deals and influence-peddling during Joe Biden’s vice presidency. The segment underscores the Biden family scandal, Hunter’s legal immunity, and the media’s complicity in shielding Democrats from accountability. Buck then shifts focus to Donald Trump’s fiery Oval Office exchange with ABC News reporter Mary Bruce, who pressed him on Saudi business ties and the upcoming Epstein Files Transparency Act vote. Trump blasts ABC as “fake news,” defends his record, and reiterates that he expelled Jeffrey Epstein from his club years ago—contrasting that with Epstein’s deep ties to Bill Clinton and other Democratic elites. Trump frames the Epstein narrative as a “Democrat hoax” aimed at distracting from his administration’s economic successes, including historic reductions in inflation and energy costs. Buck reinforces this point with commentary from Stephen Miller, who credits Trump for restoring affordability and combating inflation. The hour closes with cultural commentary and listener talkbacks on tipping etiquette and dating advice, adding a relatable and lighthearted touch to the intense political discussion. Buck emphasizes generosity and confidence as keys to navigating everyday life.

Hour 3 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show zeroes in on immigration policy, economic recovery, and breaking political news. Buck Sexton opens with a deep dive into illegal immigration under Biden, highlighting the estimated 10 million migrants who entered the U.S. during his presidency. Buck argues that this influx has strained housing, healthcare, and job markets, framing it as a massive economic and social burden on American taxpayers. He cites JD Vance’s remarks on housing affordability, explaining how unchecked immigration and limited housing supply have driven prices sky-high, especially in cities like New York where migrants occupy up to 25% of hotel rooms at taxpayer expense. The conversation expands to legal immigration reform, with Buck and Governor Ron DeSantis stressing the need for a critical reassessment of current policies. DeSantis warns against the assumption that all legal immigration is inherently good, urging a focus on assimilation and cultural cohesion. Buck uses a striking analogy—too much water can kill you—to illustrate how excessive immigration, even legal, can destabilize a nation. He calls for a pause to restore continuity and shared American identity. Buck welcomes Eric Trump for an in-depth interview on the economy and Trump administration policies. Eric touts his book Under Siege and outlines why he’s “bullish on America,” citing Trump’s aggressive energy strategy, including nuclear and drilling initiatives, as key drivers of GDP growth. He explains how low energy costs, bonus depreciation, historic tax cuts, and tariffs will fuel manufacturing, AI, crypto, and inward investment. Eric contrasts Trump’s economic record with Biden’s “four years of 10% inflation,” blaming Biden for skyrocketing housing and energy costs. He predicts a booming U.S. economy in 2026, bolstered by global investment and trade deals. The hour closes with lighter listener talkbacks on dating etiquette and pickup lines, followed by breaking news: the House passes the Epstein Files Transparency Act in a 427–1 vote, sending the bill to the Senate. Buck applauds the move for transparency, noting Trump’s support for full disclosure.

Socialism Summit Buck Sexton opens with a preview of the highly anticipated meeting between President Donald Trump and New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani, scheduled for later in the day at the White House. Buck frames this as a “socialism summit,” highlighting the stark ideological divide between Trump’s America First agenda and Mamdani’s progressive platform, which includes rent freezes, free public transit, and universal childcare. Buck argues these policies mirror European-style democratic socialism and warns they will worsen affordability issues rather than solve them. The discussion expands to the broader Democratic Party’s shift toward socialism, noting the House’s recent bipartisan vote condemning the “horrors of socialism.” Buck contrasts Mamdani’s vision with the historical roots of New York City as a capitalist hub and explains why electing an open socialist in America’s largest city signals a troubling trend. He predicts Democrats will attempt to rebrand themselves as champions of the working class ahead of the midterms, focusing on affordability as the defining issue of the next election cycle. We Need to Talk About This Buck then pivots to a horrific crime in Chicago, where a woman was set on fire aboard a public transit train. He blasts Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson’s tepid response and systemic failures that allowed the suspect—who had 70-plus prior arrests and a violent criminal history—to remain free. Buck contrasts the muted media coverage of this attack with the wall-to-wall outrage over past hoaxes like Jussie Smollett, exposing the racial and ideological double standards in mainstream reporting. He argues progressive criminal justice policies and refusal to enforce accountability have made major cities unsafe, warning that similar outcomes could emerge under Momani’s leadership in New York. Mess Around and Find Out Buck dissects the fallout from a Democrat PSA video featuring lawmakers like Mark Kelly and Alyssa Slotkin, which urged military and intelligence personnel to refuse “illegal orders.” Buck argues the video was a veiled attempt to undermine President Trump’s authority as Commander-in-Chief, framing it as subversive and politically motivated. He highlights Trump’s fiery response on Truth Social, where Trump called the behavior “seditious” and noted that such acts are “punishable by death” under federal law—a statement that triggered outrage from Democrats and media figures like Chuck Schumer, who accused Trump of inciting violence. Buck counters these claims by pointing out the hypocrisy of Democrats, citing recent left-wing political violence, including assassination attempts on Trump and other conservatives. The discussion expands to Mark Kelly’s defense of the PSA, where he referenced Trump’s past comments about protestors, and Buck dismantles the narrative that Trump poses a unique threat. He emphasizes how Democrats weaponize Nazi comparisons to justify hostility toward conservatives, creating a dangerous climate that fuels real-world violence. Listener talkbacks and VIP emails echo frustration over the PSA, calling it divisive and near-treasonous, while Buck underscores that accountability is unlikely despite the cultural Marxist undertones. CIA Officer Mike Baker Former CIA Officer Mike Baker joins the show to discuss the escalating U.S. military presence in the Caribbean under Operation Southern Spear, the largest naval buildup since the Cuban Missile Crisis. Buck and Baker break down the strategic objectives behind recent strikes on narco-trafficking boats and explore whether this pressure campaign could lead to the collapse of Nicolás Maduro’s regime in Venezuela. They examine the geopolitical ripple effects, including potential consequences for Cuba, Russian and Chinese interests, and Iran’s involvement, while debating the risks and realities of regime change versus internal transition.

The hour closes with Buck’s passionate critique of left-wing governance, emphasizing the real-world consequences of policies driven by ideology rather than public safety or economic reality.

Hour 2 of the Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show dives into explosive political controversy and cultural commentary. The hour opens with Buck dissecting the fallout from a Democrat PSA video featuring lawmakers like Mark Kelly and Alyssa Slotkin, which urged military and intelligence personnel to refuse “illegal orders.” Buck argues the video was a veiled attempt to undermine President Trump’s authority as Commander-in-Chief, framing it as subversive and politically motivated. He highlights Trump’s fiery response on Truth Social, where Trump called the behavior “seditious” and noted that such acts are “punishable by death” under federal law—a statement that triggered outrage from Democrats and media figures like Chuck Schumer, who accused Trump of inciting violence.

He emphasizes how Democrats weaponize Nazi comparisons to justify hostility toward conservatives, creating a dangerous climate that fuels real-world violence. Listener talkbacks and VIP emails echo frustration over the PSA, calling it divisive and near-treasonous, while Buck underscores that accountability is unlikely despite the cultural Marxist undertones. Midway through the hour, Buck pivots to a lighter but viral political story: Representative Jasmine Crockett’s blunder involving Jeffrey Epstein donations. Crockett mistakenly accused Republicans of taking money from Epstein without realizing the donor was a different Jeffrey Epstein—a respected doctor from Long Island. Buck shares the doctor’s humorous response and explores the broader theme of media gullibility and partisan theatrics. The hour closes with cultural commentary on civility and manners during holiday travel, featuring Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy’s PSA urging Americans to bring back the “golden age of travel” by showing courtesy on planes and in airports. Buck applauds the message, lamenting the decline of basic manners in public spaces and encouraging listeners to embrace kindness during the busy holiday season.

Hour 3 of the Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show delivers a dynamic mix of national security analysis, cultural commentary, and political insights. The hour kicks off with former CIA Officer Mike Baker discussing the escalating U.S. military presence in the Caribbean under Operation Southern Spear, the largest naval buildup since the Cuban Missile Crisis. Buck and Baker break down the strategic objectives behind recent strikes on narco-trafficking boats and explore whether this pressure campaign could lead to the collapse of Nicolás Maduro’s regime in Venezuela. They examine the geopolitical ripple effects, including potential consequences for Cuba, Russian and Chinese interests, and Iran’s involvement, while debating the risks and realities of regime change versus internal transition. The conversation pivots to the war on drugs, with Buck revealing early-stage planning for U.S. special operations missions inside Mexico targeting drug cartels. He argues that Americans overwhelmingly support aggressive measures to combat fentanyl trafficking, citing the devastating societal impact of the opioid crisis. This segment underscores the growing likelihood of paramilitary operations and intelligence-driven missions aimed at dismantling cartel networks. Later, Buck welcomes Tudor Dixon, host of the Tudor Dixon Podcast, for a candid discussion on Michelle Obama’s controversial book tour and its “Shame America” tone. Dixon critiques Obama’s complaints about life as First Lady despite her immense wealth and influence, questioning whether her media blitz signals future political ambitions. The conversation then shifts to Gretchen Whitmer’s presidential aspirations, with Dixon revealing that Whitmer has raised millions and repurposed her campaign team for a potential 2028 run. Dixon predicts Whitmer will struggle in a national primary against polished contenders like Gavin Newsom, citing her poor off-the-cuff skills and lack of substantive achievements. The hour closes with cultural analysis on shifting social norms, including a Pew Research study showing declining interest in marriage among young women. Dixon attributes this trend to pop culture messaging that glorifies independence, while Buck highlights backlash against Taylor Swift’s “trad wife” moment, where fans accused her of racism for expressing a desire for children resembling her partner. Buck argues that promoting family formation should not be politicized and warns of the cultural consequences of stigmatizing traditional values.

Mamdanism President Trump will meet New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani at the White House, a high-profile sit-down that underscores deep ideological divides. Buck analyzes Mamdani’s progressive agenda, including proposals for rent freezes, free public buses, and universal childcare, arguing these policies mirror failed socialist experiments and will worsen housing scarcity in New York City. He explains how government intervention in markets—such as rent control—creates artificial constraints that drive up costs and reduce housing availability, citing economic principles from Hayek’s Road to Serfdom. Buck warns that Mamdani’s tax-hike plans targeting corporations and high earners will further destabilize the city’s economy. FL Gov. Ron DeSantis Buck welcomes FL Governor Ron DeSantis for an in-depth discussion on Florida’s bold proposal to eliminate property taxes on homesteaded properties. DeSantis explains the economic rationale: skyrocketing property valuations are squeezing young families, while local governments have ballooned budgets from $32 billion in 2019 to $56 billion today. He argues that cutting homestead property taxes would protect true homeownership, reduce market distortions, and leverage Florida’s unique tax base, which relies heavily on non-resident property owners. DeSantis outlines plans for a 2026 ballot initiative, addresses concerns about special interests, and contrasts Florida’s lean, results-driven governance with New York’s bloated spending under progressive leadership. The conversation also touches on New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani’s agenda, warning that policies like rent freezes and anti-police measures will accelerate urban decline. WI Sen. Ron Johnson Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, who discusses alarming revelations about the FBI’s handling of the Thomas Crooks assassination attempt on President Trump. Johnson suggests the Bureau may have withheld critical information about Crooks’ online activity, including radicalization indicators, and criticizes the lack of transparency despite bipartisan efforts to investigate. He confirms his committee is pursuing independent inquiries and warns that more details will surface. The conversation shifts to the Epstein Transparency Act, which passed Congress with near-unanimous support. Johnson explains why the Senate fast-tracked the measure and outlines concerns about protecting victims while ensuring public disclosure. He predicts the DOJ will release files within 30 days of Trump’s signature, though some material may remain withheld for legal reasons. Buck and Johnson agree this rare bipartisan moment reflects overwhelming public demand for accountability in the Epstein case. Johnson also tackles FBI abuses under “Operation Arctic Frost,” describing it as a partisan dragnet targeting Trump allies, Republican groups, and even ordinary citizens in Wisconsin. He calls for full exposure of communications between Biden officials and outside legal operatives, framing the probe as an attempt to criminalize lawful political activity. The senator further advocates ending the Senate filibuster, aligning with Trump’s position to secure election integrity, repair Obamacare’s failures, and advance conservative reforms. Bye, Bye, Dept. of Ed? Buck analyzes Karoline Leavitt’s fiery White House briefing, where she announced a major step toward dismantling the Department of Education. Leavitt detailed plans to redistribute its functions across other agencies, moving toward Trump’s campaign promise to return education control to states and eliminate federal overreach. Buck applauds the move, arguing the Department has long served as a progressive policy arm rather than an educational necessity. The show also previews Trump’s upcoming meeting with New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani, which Levitt characterized as a stark contrast between Trump’s pragmatic leadership and Mamdani’s far-left agenda. Buck predicts fireworks from the meeting and critiques Mamdani’s socialist proposals, including rent freezes and free public transit, as disastrous for New York’s economy.

Hour 1 of today’s Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show kicks off with major political developments and sharp commentary on urban policy and government accountability. Buck Sexton opens by previewing upcoming interviews with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and Senator Ron Johnson, setting the stage for discussions on FBI transparency and national security concerns following revelations about the Crooks assassination attempt on President Trump. The hour dives into breaking news: President Trump will meet New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani at the White House, a high-profile sit-down that underscores deep ideological divides. Buck analyzes Mamdani’s progressive agenda, including proposals for rent freezes, free public buses, and universal childcare, arguing these policies mirror failed socialist experiments and will worsen housing scarcity in New York City. He explains how government intervention in markets—such as rent control—creates artificial constraints that drive up costs and reduce housing availability, citing economic principles from Hayek’s Road to Serfdom. Buck warns that Mamdani’s tax-hike plans targeting corporations and high earners will further destabilize the city’s economy. In a lighter but viral moment, Buck highlights Texas Representative Jasmine Crockett’s congressional blunder, where she falsely linked prominent Republicans to Jeffrey Epstein donations—only to discover the contributions came from an unrelated individual with the same name. Buck uses this to illustrate the recklessness and shamelessness dominating Democratic politics, contrasting it with the GOP’s push for transparency in the Epstein files release, which remains a hot-button issue as the DOJ faces a 30-day deadline to disclose documents.

Hour 2 of the Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show delivers a fiery mix of political analysis and policy debate, starting with a controversial Democrat PSA urging military personnel to refuse “illegal orders.” Buck Sexton calls out the vagueness and subversive tone of the message, questioning what specific unlawful orders lawmakers like Mark Kelly, Jason Crow, and Elise Slotkin are referencing. He argues this campaign is rooted in Trump Derangement Syndrome, framing it as an attempt to undermine the Commander-in-Chief and sow distrust within the armed forces. Buck highlights sharp reactions from Martha MacCallum, Marsha Blackburn, and Stephen Miller, who labeled the PSA as “insurrection” and a dangerous precedent.  The segment underscores how Democrats selectively invoke constitutional principles for political gain, contrasting their silence during Obama-era drone strikes with their current rhetoric.  The hour then pivots to Nancy Pelosi’s inflammatory remarks, where she called Trump “the worst thing on the face of the earth.” Buck critiques the emotional extremism dominating Democratic leadership and its corrosive effect on political discourse, noting Pelosi’s outsized influence on 21st-century politics.   In the second half, Buck welcomes Florida Governor Ron DeSantis for an in-depth discussion on Florida’s bold proposal to eliminate property taxes on homesteaded properties. DeSantis explains the economic rationale: skyrocketing property valuations are squeezing young families, while local governments have ballooned budgets from $32 billion in 2019 to $56 billion today. He argues that cutting homestead property taxes would protect true homeownership, reduce market distortions, and leverage Florida’s unique tax base, which relies heavily on non-resident property owners. DeSantis outlines plans for a 2026 ballot initiative, addresses concerns about special interests, and contrasts Florida’s lean, results-driven governance with New York’s bloated spending under progressive leadership. The conversation also touches on New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Momani’s agenda, warning that policies like rent freezes and anti-police measures will accelerate urban decline. The hour closes with listener reactions, including veterans condemning the PSA as “seditious” and reaffirming their commitment to constitutional duty. Buck emphasizes the absurdity of politicizing military obedience and previews upcoming discussions on FBI reform and the Epstein file release.

Hour 3 of the Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show delivers hard-hitting political analysis and breaking updates on major national security and policy issues. The hour opens with Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, who discusses alarming revelations about the FBI’s handling of the Thomas Crooks assassination attempt on President Trump. Johnson suggests the Bureau may have withheld critical information about Crooks’ online activity, including radicalization indicators, and criticizes the lack of transparency despite bipartisan efforts to investigate. He confirms his committee is pursuing independent inquiries and warns that more details will surface. The conversation shifts to the Epstein Transparency Act, which passed Congress with near-unanimous support.

Buck breaks down what this means: once President Trump signs the bill, the Justice Department will have 30 days to release Jeffrey Epstein-related files. The discussion explores whether these disclosures will provide real answers or lead to further demands for transparency. Buck emphasizes the unanswered question of Epstein’s billion-dollar fortune and the suspicious financial transactions flagged by JP Morgan and Deutsche Bank. He argues that following the money is key to uncovering the truth.

They discuss shocking statistics, including 21,000 students absent from Charlotte schools in one day due to immigration enforcement fears, and over 200 arrests of criminal illegal aliens in recent ICE operations. Whatley warns of the massive financial burden on state resources—from Medicaid to education—and contrasts his tough-on-crime stance with Cooper’s record of vetoing tax cuts, police pay raises, and bills protecting women’s sports.

The hour opens with Buck Sexton previewing Clay’s surprise international trip, which turns out to be a headline-making visit to Rome where Clay met Pope Francis at the Vatican. Clay shares details of his mission: delivering an invitation for the Pope to throw out the first pitch at a future Chicago White Sox game, a unique gesture tied to the team’s new ownership and stadium plans. This segment blends sports, faith, and global intrigue, making it a must-hear for fans of both baseball and world affairs.

Hour 2 of the Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show delivers a deep dive into two major stories dominating headlines: Trump’s high-stakes diplomacy with Saudi Arabia and the escalating immigration enforcement battle in North Carolina. Buck Sexton kicks off the hour by revisiting the upcoming release of the Epstein Transparency Act files, warning listeners that even with President Trump’s signature, questions about redactions and completeness will linger. He predicts this will mirror historic controversies like the JFK assassination files—fueling skepticism and demands for more transparency. The conversation then shifts to Trump’s meeting with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, highlighting a landmark announcement: Saudi Arabia will invest $1 trillion in the United States, up from a previous $600 billion commitment. Buck explains why this matters for American jobs, technology, and energy security. He underscores Saudi Arabia’s strategic role as a bulwark against Iran and its potential normalization with Israel—a move that could reshape Middle East geopolitics. Trump’s agreements with the Saudis span civil nuclear energy, critical minerals, and artificial intelligence, signaling a major boost for U.S. innovation and manufacturing. Buck also defends Trump’s pragmatic approach to foreign policy, contrasting it with Democratic hypocrisy on human rights and global engagement. Next, Buck covers Trump’s remarks on tariffs and economic policy, including plans for a $2,000 dividend to low- and middle-income Americans and aggressive debt reduction. He blasts mainstream media for fixating on Jamal Khashoggi and 9/11 during the Saudi meeting instead of acknowledging the economic benefits of Trump’s diplomacy. In the second half of the hour, Buck welcomes Michael Whatley, former RNC Chair and current candidate for U.S. Senate in North Carolina. Whatley details the fallout from Governor Roy Cooper’s veto of legislation requiring sheriffs to honor ICE detainers, which has led to a surge in illegal immigration and crime. They discuss shocking statistics, including 21,000 students absent from Charlotte schools in one day due to immigration enforcement fears, and over 200 arrests of criminal illegal aliens in recent ICE operations.

He predicts the North Carolina Senate race will be the most expensive in U.S. history, with Democrats pouring in hundreds of millions to flip the seat. The hour closes with listener talkbacks on the Epstein file release and speculation about fallout for celebrities and politicians linked to Epstein’s network. Buck reminds listeners that expectations of bombshell revelations may be unrealistic, drawing parallels to the overhyped Trump tax return saga.

Hour 3 of the Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show delivers a powerful mix of breaking political analysis and cultural commentary. Buck opens with the latest on the Epstein Transparency Act, warning listeners that even after President Trump signs the bill and the DOJ releases files within 30 days, Democrats will weaponize the process. He predicts endless claims of tampering and incomplete disclosures, despite the fact that victim testimony has never implicated Trump. Buck cites comments from CNN and Democrat lawmakers, highlighting their strategy to link Trump to Epstein regardless of evidence. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt reinforces that leaked narratives are politically motivated and reminds listeners that Trump was consistently cleared in victim statements. The conversation shifts to FBI credibility and intelligence reform, sparked by revelations about the would-be Trump assassin and parallels to the Nashville school shooter manifesto cover-up. Buck argues that federal agencies have lost public trust and explores whether efforts by leaders like Tulsi Gabbard and Kash Patel can restore integrity. He also discusses Trump’s push to eliminate the Senate filibuster, framing it as essential for advancing election integrity measures, voter ID laws, and ending universal mail-in ballots. Buck warns Republicans to act before Democrats seize the advantage, emphasizing the stakes for future elections. In the second half of the hour, Buck dives into a Pew Research study on marriage trends among Gen Z, revealing that only 61% of 12th-grade girls want to marry compared to 74% of boys. He critiques cultural messaging that promotes “boss babe” ideology and hookup culture, arguing it misleads young women and undermines long-term happiness.

An Exercise in Media Propaganda Buck Sexton is solo hosting while Clay is away on a super secret trip overseas for a very important meeting, and he kicks off the hour with updates on the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which is set for a vote during the program. Buck explains why Democrats are pushing this as a political distraction and emphasizes Donald Trump’s stance: full transparency and release of all Epstein-related documents. The discussion highlights Trump’s past actions, including banning Epstein from his club, and contrasts that with deep ties Epstein had to prominent Democrats like Bill Clinton and Larry Summers. Buck also addresses the media narrative and propaganda tactics, warning listeners about how focus and repetition are used to smear political opponents. He connects this to his upcoming book, Manufacturing Delusion, which explores the science and history of mind control, propaganda, and mass psychosis. Buck argues that Trump Derangement Syndrome has become a defining pathology of our time, citing expert commentary on how obsessive hatred of Trump has reached clinical levels. He draws parallels to authoritarian regimes and explains how manufactured hysteria threatens American democracy more than any external crisis. Miranda Devine Blockbuster An exclusive interview featuring Miranda Devine of the New York Post, who reveals shocking details about Thomas Crooks, the would-be assassin of President Donald Trump. Devine explains how Crooks’ online footprint—spanning platforms like YouTube, Gab, and DeviantArt—shows a disturbing evolution from pro-Trump rhetoric to violent anti-Trump threats, including assassination fantasies. She highlights Crooks’ use of aliases, his ties to extremist forums, and even gender identity confusion, noting his adoption of they/them pronouns and links to the “furry” subculture. Devine questions why the FBI and Secret Service failed to act despite clear warning signs, raising concerns about possible agency negligence or concealment. The conversation pivots to Hunter Biden, after audio surfaces of him launching personal attacks on Devine, calling her unethical and insulting her appearance. Buck and Miranda dissect Biden’s behavior, emphasizing his inability to refute documented evidence of corruption involving foreign business deals and influence-peddling during Joe Biden’s vice presidency. The segment underscores the Biden family scandal, Hunter’s legal immunity, and the media’s complicity in shielding Democrats from accountability. Government Theft Adeep dive into illegal immigration under Biden, highlighting the estimated 10 million migrants who entered the U.S. during his presidency. Buck argues that this influx has strained housing, healthcare, and job markets, framing it as a massive economic and social burden on American taxpayers. He cites JD Vance’s remarks on housing affordability, explaining how unchecked immigration and limited housing supply have driven prices sky-high, especially in cities like New York where migrants occupy up to 25% of hotel rooms at taxpayer expense. The conversation expands to legal immigration reform, with Buck and Governor Ron DeSantis stressing the need for a critical reassessment of current policies. DeSantis warns against the assumption that all legal immigration is inherently good, urging a focus on assimilation and cultural cohesion. Buck uses a striking analogy—too much water can kill you—to illustrate how excessive immigration, even legal, can destabilize a nation. He calls for a pause to restore continuity and shared American identity. Eric Trump Joins the Show Buck welcomes Eric Trump for an in-depth interview on the economy and Trump administration policies. Eric touts his book Under Siege and outlines why he’s “bullish on America,” citing Trump’s aggressive energy strategy, including nuclear and drilling initiatives, as key drivers of GDP growth. He explains how low energy costs, bonus depreciation, historic tax cuts, and tariffs will fuel manufacturing, AI, crypto, and inward investment. Eric contrasts Trump’s economic record with Biden’s “four years of 10% inflation,” blaming Biden for skyrocketing housing and energy costs. He predicts a booming U.S. economy in 2026, bolstered by global investment and trade deals.

Hour 2 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show delivers breaking news and in-depth analysis on major political and cultural stories. Buck Sexton leads the hour with an exclusive interview featuring Miranda Devine of the New York Post, who reveals shocking details about Thomas Crooks, the would-be assassin of President Donald Trump.

The segment underscores the Biden family scandal, Hunter’s legal immunity, and the media’s complicity in shielding Democrats from accountability. Buck then shifts focus to Donald Trump’s fiery Oval Office exchange with ABC News reporter Mary Bruce, who pressed him on Saudi business ties and the upcoming Epstein Files Transparency Act vote. Trump blasts ABC as “fake news,” defends his record, and reiterates that he expelled Jeffrey Epstein from his club years ago—contrasting that with Epstein’s deep ties to Bill Clinton and other Democratic elites. Trump frames the Epstein narrative as a “Democrat hoax” aimed at distracting from his administration’s economic successes, including historic reductions in inflation and energy costs. Buck reinforces this point with commentary from Stephen Miller, who credits Trump for restoring affordability and combating inflation. The hour closes with cultural commentary and listener talkbacks on tipping etiquette and dating advice, adding a relatable and lighthearted touch to the intense political discussion. Buck emphasizes generosity and confidence as keys to navigating everyday life.
