Radical Leftwing Violence

President Donald Trump meets with the Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and addresses the press on multiple issues. The hosts analyze Trump’s remarks, including his blunt assessment of rising left-wing violence and his warning that radical rhetoric from Democrats is fueling domestic terrorism.  The discussion shifts to the U.S. economy, highlighting a surprising 3.8% GDP growth in Q2, record-high stock prices, and falling interest rates. Clay and Buck break down how lower mortgage rates could unlock the housing market and why economic growth—not spending cuts—may be the only path to balancing the federal budget. They also touch on Elon Musk’s prediction that AI-driven innovation could help offset ballooning deficits.

Phony Comey

The conversation zeroes in on James Comey, the former FBI Director, as reports suggest possible criminal charges for lying under oath before the statute of limitations expires. Clay and Buck revisit Comey’s controversial role in targeting General Michael Flynn and his history of aggressive prosecutions, including the Martha Stewart case. They stress the importance of accountability to prevent the U.S. from descending into “banana republic” politics.

Autism and Tylenol

Dr. Mehmet Oz, now serving as CMS Administrator under President Trump and HHS Secretary RFK Jr., joins the show to discuss groundbreaking developments in autism research, including promising results from leucovorin therapy for children and emerging concerns about acetaminophen (Tylenol) use during pregnancy. He emphasizes transparency in government health data and warns against overusing medications during pregnancy. 

The conversation explores the alarming rise in autism rates—now estimated at 1 in 31 children—and potential environmental and lifestyle factors, including allergies, chemical exposure, and older parental age. Dr. Oz underscores the need for urgent research and public awareness, noting that autism prevalence has increased fivefold in 25 years.

Nerding Out with Ryan

In-depth political analysis with guest Ryan Girdusky, host of It’s a Numbers Game. The discussion kicks off with the New Jersey governor’s race, where New Jersey Republican Jack Ciattarelli is gaining momentum against Democrat Mikie Sherrill. Despite Democrats’ historic voter advantage, recent polls show a tightening race, fueled by Sherrill’s controversies—including a viral debate stumble and a resurfaced Naval Academy cheating scandal from 1994. Girdusky explains how skyrocketing electricity costs, driven by data center energy demands, have become a top voter concern in both New Jersey and Virginia, shaping campaign strategies.

The conversation shifts to Virginia’s gubernatorial showdown between Republican Winsome Sears and Democrat Abigail Spanberger. Sears is focusing on cultural issues like transgender participation in women’s sports and locker rooms, while Spanberger avoids clear answers, offering vague responses that Clay and Buck criticize as political double-speak. The hosts argue that Democrats in purple states often run as moderates but govern as progressives, warning voters about the stakes in these off-year elections.

Next, attention turns to the New York City mayoral race, where progressive candidate Zohran Mamdani is the overwhelming favorite according to betting markets, despite a crowded field including Andrew Cuomo, Eric Adams, and Curtis Sliwa. Girdusky predicts Mamdani’s win could have national implications for Democrats in the 2026 midterms, as his far-left policies on policing and immigration could become a liability for the party’s brand.

Hour 2 of The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show dives into the heated Virginia governor’s race, highlighting the stark contrast between Republican candidate Winsome Sears and Democrat Abigail Spanberger. The hosts warn that Spanberger, portrayed as a moderate, is a “Trojan horse” for radical left policies, drawing parallels to Joe Biden’s 2020 campaign strategy. They revisit the cultural flashpoints that propelled Glenn Youngkin to victory in 2021, including parental rights in education and school policies on gender identity.

The discussion intensifies with breaking reports from Northern Virginia and Fairfax County, where controversial transgender locker room policies have sparked outrage. Clay and Buck detail shocking incidents involving biological males in girls’ locker rooms, including a registered sex offender allegedly exposing himself and engaging in lewd acts in an Arlington high school. Another case involves a teenage boy with facial hair reportedly watching girls undress in a Fairfax County locker room. The hosts argue these incidents exemplify the dangers of gender identity policies and accuse Democrats of refusing to condemn such behavior to appease activist groups.

In the second half of the hour, the focus shifts to health policy as Dr. Mehmet Oz, now serving as CMS Administrator under President Trump and HHS Secretary RFK Jr., joins the show.

Assassination Trends
 
A sniper attack at a Dallas ICE facility, which prompts Clay and Buck into a deep dive on the rise of left-wing political violence and domestic terrorism. The shooter reportedly engraved anti-ICE messages on bullets, echoing previous politically motivated assassinations, including the killing of Charlie Kirk and United Healthcare’s CEO, Brian Thompson. Buck Sexton, drawing on his counterterrorism background, categorizes the incident as ideologically driven terrorism, criticizing mainstream media outlets like CNN for downplaying motives when violence originates from the political left.

The hosts explore the broader implications of anti-law enforcement rhetoric, citing statements from California Governor Gavin Newsom and Senator Ted Cruz. Cruz calls for an end to inflammatory language targeting ICE and CBP agents, warning of real-world consequences. The discussion also highlights how political figures and media narratives may be fueling radicalization by portraying conservatives and law enforcement as fascists.

OH Rep. Jim Jordan

A conversation with Ohio Congressman Jim Jordan. A deep dive into Big Tech censorship, as Jordan discusses YouTube’s recent admission of suppressing conservative voices, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. The hosts and Jordan explore the First Amendment implications, the lack of accountability, and the financial damage inflicted on independent creators and media outlets. Jordan highlights pending legislation that would allow individuals to sue government officials who pressure platforms to censor speech, reinforcing the need for free speech protections in the digital age.

The discussion shifts to the Let Experienced Pilots Fly Act, a bipartisan effort to address airline staffing shortages and reduce flight delays. Buck and Clay advocate for keeping skilled pilots in the air, citing safety, efficiency, and passenger satisfaction. Congressman Jordan supports the initiative and recommends engaging Transportation Committee Chairman Sam Graves for further insight.
Next, the conversation turns to the Score Act, a bill aimed at reforming college athletics. Jordan outlines its goals: promoting competitive balance, protecting non-revenue and Olympic sports, and ensuring athletes pursue education. The bill seeks to preserve Division I standards and address concerns over frequent transfers and lost academic opportunities.

Buck Going to Taiwan

In a geopolitical pivot, Buck announces his upcoming fact-finding trip to Taiwan, where he’ll meet with senior officials to discuss national security, semiconductor production, and the growing threat from China. He emphasizes Taiwan’s strategic importance, noting that it produces 90% of the world’s advanced semiconductors, making it a critical flashpoint in global politics.

FL Sen. Rick Scott

Clay and Buck explore the broader implications of left-wing political violence, tying it to inflammatory rhetoric from Democratic leaders. Vice President JD Vance’s powerful comments condemning the demonization of law enforcement is played and endorsed, followed by a passionate response from Senator Rick Scott of Florida, who calls for national support of law enforcement and criticizes Democrats for fostering hostility toward officers.

Senator Scott also addresses the looming government shutdown, blaming Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer for obstructing budget negotiations. He supports Senator Ron Johnson’s proposal to maintain government operations using previous funding levels, arguing it’s better than halting essential services. Scott also updates listeners on the confirmation process for Trump administration nominees, revealing that Democrats are systematically blocking appointments, forcing Republicans to change Senate rules to push through over 100 nominees.

Clay and Buck ask Senator Scott about the Jimmy Kimmel controversy, with the guys analyzing Nexstar and Sinclair’s decision to pull the show from local affiliates. Senator Scott calls Kimmel “toxic” and praises networks for making business decisions that reflect audience values. The hosts argue for a return to balanced late-night comedy, suggesting that shows like Colbert and Kimmel have become vehicles for Democrat propaganda rather than genuine humor. They propose relocating late-night programming to cities like Nashville to escape the ideological echo chambers of New York and LA.
