Hour 3 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show features guest host Tudor Dixon broadcasting from the WOOD Radio Studios in Grand Rapids, Michigan. This hour dives into critical political and cultural topics shaping America as we head into 2026. Tudor welcomes James Blair, former Trump 2024 campaign and RNC political director, for an in-depth discussion on the Republican midterm strategy, the impact of President Donald Trump’s tax cuts, and how GOP messaging on affordability and economic recovery is resonating with voters. Blair outlines key policy wins, including eliminating taxes on tips, overtime, and Social Security, and previews upcoming proposals aimed at restoring prosperity after years of inflation under Democrat leadership. He emphasizes Trump’s role as the party’s leader and “get-out-the-vote machine,” highlighting his recent visits to battleground districts and the importance of contrasting Republican solutions with Democrat failures.

The conversation then pivots to Marjorie Taylor Greene’s controversial interviews with mainstream media, raising questions about loyalty, political branding, and the future of the America First movement. Tudor and her co-hosts analyze Greene’s shift away from MAGA messaging and speculate on her motives amid growing rifts within the conservative base.

Later, Rep. Pete Stauber (R-MN) joins to expose a massive fraud scandal in Minnesota, estimated between $9–$11 billion, spanning housing, Medicaid, childcare, and transportation programs under Governor Tim Walz. Stauber calls for accountability, detailing how whistleblowers were silenced and how the Trump administration is deploying federal agencies to investigate and prosecute those responsible. He warns about vulnerabilities in Minnesota’s election laws, including same-day registration and vouching practices, and criticizes policies granting benefits to illegal immigrants. Stauber underscores that Minnesotans—across party lines—are outraged and demand reform.

The hour closes on an uplifting note, celebrating America’s Greatest Generation. Tudor shares her recent podcast interview with Irving Locker, a 101-year-old WWII veteran, and honors 104-year-old Staff Sergeant Dominick Critelli, who performed the national anthem at a New York Islanders game. These stories remind listeners of patriotism, sacrifice, and the enduring spirit of American heroes.
