Code Switching

Clay and Buck dive into the political and cultural landscape shaping the first fall of the Trump 2.0 presidency, highlighting the ongoing resistance from federal judges against the administration’s policies. The hosts criticize what they describe as partisan judicial activism, particularly rulings that attempt to block President Trump’s constitutional authority—such as deploying the National Guard in Los Angeles during immigration-related unrest. They emphasize how these decisions are often overturned by higher courts, including the Supreme Court, reinforcing Trump’s legal standing.

The show also covers a controversial case involving 76 unaccompanied Guatemalan children who were blocked from being reunited with their families in Guatemala by a federal judge. Clay and Buck frame this as an example of how judicial overreach is obstructing humanitarian efforts and immigration reform under Trump 2.0.

Call in the Guard!

A deep dive into the escalating crisis of urban crime in America, with a sharp focus on cities like Chicago, Washington D.C., and Memphis. They highlight the Trump administration’s proactive stance on law and order, praising President Trump’s efforts to reduce violent crime and carjackings while exposing the political resistance from Democrat leaders who, they argue, are failing to protect their constituents.

The conversation centers around the staggering statistic that 50 people were shot in Chicago over Labor Day weekend, prompting Clay and Buck to question why Democratic officials like Mayor Brandon Johnson oppose federal assistance, including National Guard deployment, to restore safety. They contrast Johnson’s slogan-heavy rhetoric with more pragmatic voices like Morning Joe’s Joe Scarborough, who surprisingly called for bipartisan cooperation with Trump to address crime in Illinois.

The hosts also revisit the controversial remarks of Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, who suggested that increased policing would lead to too many arrests of black and brown individuals. Clay and Buck challenge this logic, emphasizing that the real victims of unchecked crime are often minorities living in high-crime neighborhoods. They argue that the true measure of safety is whether women and children can walk or jog freely in their communities without fear.

Commie Mamdani

The New York City mayoral race, scrutinizing the candidacy of Zohran Mamdani, a self-described democratic socialist. They dissect the New York Times’ attempt to downplay his ideology and warn that his proposed policies—like government-run grocery stores—could devastate the city’s economy and infrastructure. The hosts debate whether Mamdani is a true ideologue or simply an inexperienced politician who may struggle to implement his radical agenda.

The segment also includes reflections on past NYC mayors like Rudy Giuliani, Michael Bloomberg, and Bill de Blasio, comparing their leadership styles and impact on crime. Clay and Buck argue that Bloomberg’s business acumen and Giuliani’s law enforcement background made them effective leaders, while de Blasio’s progressive policies contributed to the city’s decline.

Doesn't Have to be This Way

Clay and Buck scrutinize Chicago’s violent crime epidemic, where Governor JB Pritzker dodges questions about the city’s safety following a weekend of 54 shootings and 7 deaths. Clay and Buck argue that President Trump’s deployment of the National Guard in Washington D.C. has proven effective, and they challenge Democrats to explain their resistance to similar measures in cities like Memphis, St. Louis, and New Orleans.

The hosts dissect Mayor Brandon Johnson’s inflammatory rhetoric, including his call for citizens to “defend the land” against Trump’s law enforcement efforts. Clay and Buck criticize this as dangerous and historically inaccurate, noting that Chicago was not built by slaves or indigenous people, and that invoking such narratives undermines real solutions to crime. They emphasize the psychological deterrent effect of visible law enforcement and the success of plainclothes policing units in cities like New York.

The conversation shifts to the broader political implications of Trump’s crime-fighting strategy, highlighting how Democrats are increasingly boxed into defending the indefensible. Clay and Buck argue that Trump’s actions are saving lives, even if those lives can’t be individually identified, and they call out the hypocrisy of Democrats who welcomed National Guard troops during COVID but now oppose them for public safety.
