Charlie's Memorial

Clay and Buck reflect on the memorial event for conservative activist Charlie Kirk, whose recent assassination has galvanized the conservative movement. 
There was a massive turnout in Phoenix — nearly 90,000 attendees — with impactful speeches delivered by Vice President JD Vance, President Donald Trump, Senior White House Advisor Steven Miller, and Charlie's widow, Erika Kirk, whose message of forgiveness and revival resonated deeply across the country.

Erika Kirk’s speech, delivered just 48 hours after her husband’s death, is highlighted as the most compelling moment of the day. Her biblical reference and refusal to incite violence underscore the conservative response to tragedy—marked by peace, unity, and spiritual renewal. Clay and Buck contrast this with leftist reactions to political violence, criticizing the media’s silence and the justification of riots as “the voice of the voiceless.”

Don't Forget This

Clay and Buck discuss the attempted assassination of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh by a trans-identifying individual, noting the lack of media coverage and accountability, and tying it to the leaked Roe v. Wade decision.

Kimmel Comeback?

Clay and Buck discuss the controversy surrounding Jimmy Kimmel’s suspension from ABC, exploring the intersection of media bias, corporate strategy, and political influence. The hosts argue that Kimmel’s suspension was not a principled stand against offensive content, but rather a calculated move by Disney CEO Bob Iger to curry favor with the Trump administration. 

This theory is tied to Disney’s reported interest in acquiring the NFL Network, a deal that would require regulatory approval and political goodwill. The conversation also highlights the role of affiliate networks like Nexstar and Sinclair, which may choose not to carry Kimmel’s show even if ABC reinstates him, further complicating the media landscape.

The hosts draw comparisons to past cancellations of conservative figures such as Roseanne Barr and Gina Carano, both of whom were removed from Disney projects for controversial speech. They argue that the selective outrage and inconsistent enforcement of speech standards reveal a deep ideological bias within corporate media. Clay and Buck emphasize their support for free speech across the board, even defending figures they personally disagree with, and criticize the hypocrisy of those who only defend speech when it aligns with their politics.

New Face of Dem Party?

Political analysis continues with a breakdown of polling data showing Republicans leading Democrats on key issues like the economy, immigration, and crime. The hosts highlight the media’s failure to cover the attempted assassination of Justice Brett Kavanaugh, noting the suspect’s transgender identity and linking it to a disturbing pattern of transgender-related violence in recent high-profile cases. They criticize the Biden administration’s vague responses and lack of transparency on the issue, arguing that the media and political establishment are ignoring a growing trend.

The show also features a viral moment from Virginia Congresswoman Abigail Spanberger, who dodges a direct question about her stance on transgender bathroom and locker room policies. The hosts praise the reporter, Nick Minock, for pressing the issue and use the exchange to underscore what they see as the Democratic Party’s refusal to engage honestly on cultural issues. They argue that if a politician won’t answer a basic question about gender policy, they can’t be trusted on anything else.
