Daily Review with Clay and Buck - Aug 13 2024

Clay's Convo with Trump Today


Clay Travis is in DC and met with President Trump at the White House before the show.  Congressman Jim Jordan joins live from Washington, praising Trump’s record on tax cuts, NATO contributions, border security, and cultural issues like protecting women’s sports. Jordan previews explosive upcoming testimony from Special Counsel Jack Smith, who faces scrutiny for subpoenaing Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s phone records and paying informants during his Trump probe. He also confirms subpoenas for Fani Willis amid allegations of misconduct in Georgia’s election case.


Iran is Keeping the World in the Dark


The escalating Iranian uprising and the Trump administration’s deliberations on how to respond. Clay, reporting from Washington, shares insights from the White House, noting that President Trump is weighing options as Iran’s regime brutally cracks down on nationwide protests. Estimates suggest thousands—possibly up to 10,000—Iranians have been killed, dwarfing historical atrocities like Tiananmen Square. Buck explains the strategic calculus behind Trump’s decision-making, outlining two categories of potential U.S. actions: non-kinetic measures, such as cyber operations and restoring communications via Elon Musk’s Starlink, and kinetic strikes targeting Iran’s Basij paramilitary forces or Revolutionary Guard facilities. Both hosts stress that Trump’s approach avoids the failed nation-building model of Iraq and Afghanistan, focusing instead on empowering Iranians to topple the regime organically.


Peace Through Strength


The discussion explores whether Iran’s military will continue obeying orders to kill civilians or fracture under moral and practical pressure. Clay and Buck compare the situation to historic turning points like the fall of the Berlin Wall, suggesting that Trump’s “peace through strength” doctrine could trigger a geopolitical domino effect, toppling authoritarian regimes in Iran, Venezuela, and Cuba. They also highlight the psychological impact of recent U.S. and Israeli operations, including the takedown of Venezuela’s narco-terrorist leadership, which signals America’s unmatched capability to neutralize threats swiftly.


In a surprising twist, the hour shifts to Greenland negotiations, as Clay reveals that Danish and Greenlandic delegations are meeting with U.S. officials, reviving Trump’s long-discussed vision of expanding America’s strategic footprint. The hosts defend the concept of territorial acquisition as historically grounded in U.S. policy—from the Monroe Doctrine to the purchase of the Virgin Islands—and argue that expanding influence in the Arctic aligns with national security and economic interests. They even speculate on hypothetical scenarios involving U.S. territories like Guam or American Samoa, framing the debate as a return to bold, expansionist thinking.


Buck's Iran Prediction 

President Trump is signaling potential military action against Iran amid reports of mass executions and thousands of civilian deaths during anti-regime protests. Clay and Buck analyze Trump’s remarks warning Tehran to “behave” and recall his decisive strikes on Qasem Soleimani and Iran’s nuclear infrastructure, framing this as a continuation of Trump’s “peace through strength” doctrine. They explore the strategic options under consideration—from cyber operations and restoring Starlink access to kinetic strikes on IRGC and Basij facilities—while emphasizing the unprecedented information blackout inside Iran. Clay notes that unlike Gaza, where media coverage was constant, Iran has effectively severed internet access, making it difficult to verify events in real time. Both hosts argue that Trump’s response could reshape global geopolitics, comparing the moment to the fall of the Berlin Wall and predicting ripple effects across authoritarian regimes in the Middle East.

Daily Review with Clay and Buck - Jan 14 2026

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/c8a0ed7b-56f0-4a82-b2d2-b3d201470852/transcript

Hour 1 of The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show kicks off with a deep dive into the escalating immigration enforcement showdown under President Trump. The hosts reveal that the U.S. will freeze visa processing for 75 countries—including Somalia, Russia, Iran, Nigeria, Thailand, and Brazil—starting January 21, marking a dramatic shift in immigration policy. They highlight a historic milestone: net negative migration in 2025 for the first time in 50 years, underscoring Trump’s success in securing the border and reversing decades of lax enforcement. Clay and Buck argue that Democrats are fiercely resisting these measures because they expose immigration as a political choice, not an inevitability. They detail how sanctuary states and cities will lose federal funding on February 1, framing this as a pivotal moment for restoring sovereignty and dismantling what they call the “public charge” welfare pipeline that incentivizes dependency among new arrivals.

The discussion expands to fraud scandals in Minnesota, where programs like “Feeding Our Future” allegedly funneled millions into fake childcare and food schemes. Buck blasts the systemic abuse of taxpayer dollars and the racial discrimination lawsuits used to intimidate officials into continuing payouts. The hosts warn that similar scams may be widespread in blue states, demanding aggressive oversight and accountability.

From domestic policy, the hour pivots to foreign affairs, with Clay and Buck analyzing Trump’s options in Iran following successful U.S. and Israeli operations in Venezuela and the Middle East. They outline strategies under consideration—cyberattacks, communications support, and targeted strikes—to weaken the Ayatollah’s regime without deploying U.S. troops. The hosts stress that mainstream media is rooting against regime change to deny Trump credit, even if it means prolonging Iranian oppression. Ohio Congressman Jim Jordan joins live from Washington, praising Trump’s record on tax cuts, NATO contributions, border security, and cultural issues like protecting women’s sports. Jordan previews explosive upcoming testimony from Special Counsel Jack Smith, who faces scrutiny for subpoenaing Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s phone records and paying informants during his Trump probe. He also confirms subpoenas for Fani Willis amid allegations of misconduct in Georgia’s election case.

Hour 1 closes with Jordan warning that if Democrats regain control of the House, they will impeach Trump again, reopen the border, and reinstate radical policies—from sanctuary protections to gender ideology in sports. Clay and Buck frame the 2026 midterms as a referendum on sanity versus chaos, urging listeners to stay engaged as Trump’s enforcement surge and economic reforms reshape the political landscape.

Hour 1 - Chairman Jordan Joins Clay in DC

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/beb103a2-cdc0-4c8b-a567-b3d2013e1464/transcript

Hour 2 of The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show zeroes in on what may be the most consequential global story of 2026: the escalating Iranian uprising and the Trump administration’s deliberations on how to respond. Clay, reporting from Washington, shares insights from the White House, noting that President Trump is weighing options as Iran’s regime brutally cracks down on nationwide protests. Estimates suggest thousands—possibly up to 10,000—Iranians have been killed, dwarfing historical atrocities like Tiananmen Square. Buck explains the strategic calculus behind Trump’s decision-making, outlining two categories of potential U.S. actions: non-kinetic measures, such as cyber operations and restoring communications via Elon Musk’s Starlink, and kinetic strikes targeting Iran’s Basij paramilitary forces or Revolutionary Guard facilities. Both hosts stress that Trump’s approach avoids the failed nation-building model of Iraq and Afghanistan, focusing instead on empowering Iranians to topple the regime organically.

The discussion explores whether Iran’s military will continue obeying orders to kill civilians or fracture under moral and practical pressure. Clay and Buck compare the situation to historic turning points like the fall of the Berlin Wall, suggesting that Trump’s “peace through strength” doctrine could trigger a geopolitical domino effect, toppling authoritarian regimes in Iran, Venezuela, and Cuba. They also highlight the psychological impact of recent U.S. and Israeli operations, including the takedown of Venezuela’s narco-terrorist leadership, which signals America’s unmatched capability to neutralize threats swiftly.

In a surprising twist, the hour shifts to Greenland negotiations, as Clay reveals that Danish and Greenlandic delegations are meeting with U.S. officials, reviving Trump’s long-discussed vision of expanding America’s strategic footprint. The hosts defend the concept of territorial acquisition as historically grounded in U.S. policy—from the Monroe Doctrine to the purchase of the Virgin Islands—and argue that expanding influence in the Arctic aligns with national security and economic interests. They even speculate on hypothetical scenarios involving U.S. territories like Guam or American Samoa, framing the debate as a return to bold, expansionist thinking.

The segment closes with sharp cultural commentary on selective outrage: while campuses erupted over Gaza, there is near-total silence on Iran’s mass killings. Clay and Buck call out the hypocrisy of activists and media who ignore atrocities when they can’t blame “white oppressors,” underscoring the ideological lens distorting global human rights discourse.

Hour 2 of The Clay Travis &amp; Buck Sexton Show zeroes in on what may be the most consequential global story of 2026: the escalating Iranian uprising and the Trump administration&rsquo;s deliberations on how to respond. Clay, reporting from Washington, shares insights from the White House, noting that President Trump is weighing options as Iran&rsquo;s regime brutally cracks down on nationwide protests. Estimates suggest thousands&mdash;possibly up to 10,000&mdash;Iranians have been killed, dwarfing historical atrocities like Tiananmen Square. Buck explains the strategic calculus behind Trump&rsquo;s decision-making, outlining two categories of potential U.S. actions: non-kinetic measures, such as cyber operations and restoring communications via Elon Musk&rsquo;s Starlink, and kinetic strikes targeting Iran&rsquo;s Basij paramilitary forces or Revolutionary Guard facilities. Both hosts stress that Trump&rsquo;s approach avoids the failed nation-building model of Iraq and Afghanistan, focusing instead on empowering Iranians to topple the regime organically.
The discussion explores whether Iran&rsquo;s military will continue obeying orders to kill civilians or fracture under moral and practical pressure. Clay and Buck compare the situation to historic turning points like the fall of the Berlin Wall, suggesting that Trump&rsquo;s &ldquo;peace through strength&rdquo; doctrine could trigger a geopolitical domino effect, toppling authoritarian regimes in Iran, Venezuela, and Cuba. They also highlight the psychological impact of recent U.S. and Israeli operations, including the takedown of Venezuela&rsquo;s narco-terrorist leadership, which signals America&rsquo;s unmatched capability to neutralize threats swiftly.
In a surprising twist, the hour shifts to Greenland negotiations, as Clay reveals that Danish and Greenlandic delegations are meeting with U.S. officials, reviving Trump&rsquo;s long-discussed vision of expanding America&rsquo;s strategic footprint. The hosts defend the concept of territorial acquisition as historically grounded in U.S. policy&mdash;from the Monroe Doctrine to the purchase of the Virgin Islands&mdash;and argue that expanding influence in the Arctic aligns with national security and economic interests. They even speculate on hypothetical scenarios involving U.S. territories like Guam or American Samoa, framing the debate as a return to bold, expansionist thinking.
The segment closes with sharp cultural commentary on selective outrage: while campuses erupted over Gaza, there is near-total silence on Iran&rsquo;s mass killings. Clay and Buck call out the hypocrisy of activists and media who ignore atrocities when they can&rsquo;t blame &ldquo;white oppressors,&rdquo; underscoring the ideological lens distorting global human rights discourse.
