  • 📰 Overview of the Situation

    Israel has launched a preemptive strike on Iran to prevent it from acquiring nuclear weapons. The operation, named "Operation Rising Lion," targeted: Iran’s nuclear enrichment and weaponization facilities. Senior Iranian military leaders, including the head of the IRGC. Ballistic missile infrastructure.

    🇮🇱 Israel’s Justification

    Prime Minister Netanyahu declared the strike necessary to prevent a nuclear holocaust and ensure Israel’s survival. He emphasized that Iran was close to producing nuclear weapons and had made aggressive moves toward weaponization. The Israeli government views this as a defensive action, not a declaration of war.

    🇺🇸 U.S. Perspective

    Senator Cruz strongly supports Israel’s actions and frames them as beneficial to both Israeli and American security. He warns Iran against retaliating against U.S. forces, asserting that any attack on Americans would provoke a devastating response from President Trump. Cruz criticizes the Democratic Party and the Biden administration for being weak on Iran and insufficiently supportive of Israel.

    🧠 Strategic and Tactical Elements

    The strike is described as a “decapitation strike” aimed at crippling Iran’s nuclear and military leadership. It was timed to coincide with the expiration of a 60-day ultimatum issued by President Trump for Iran to dismantle its nuclear program. The operation is portrayed as highly successful, with significant Iranian casualties and infrastructure damage.

    🗣️ Political and Ideological Commentary

    The podcast includes strong criticism of the Obama-era Iran nuclear deal and the Democratic Party’s stance on Israel. It highlights rising antisemitism and urges support for Israel through organizations like the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. Cruz and Ferguson express concern about both left-wing and right-wing antisemitism in the U.S.

    🔮 What’s Next?

    Iran is expected to retaliate, possibly with missile strikes against Israel or U.S. forces. The situation is described as extremely volatile, with the potential for significant escalation. The podcast ends with a call for prayer and support for Israel and American troops.

  •  Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton!  If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too.

     

    Here’s a sample episode recapping four Thursday takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.

     

    Middle East Tensions

     

    Clay Travis and Buck Sexton broadcast live from Washington, D.C., where Clay and Buck share behind-the-scenes insights from their high-level meetings with members of President Donald Trump’s administration. The hour opens with lighthearted anecdotes about fan encounters in Georgetown and a humorous mishap involving Clay being denied entry to a White House meeting due to not having a Real ID. Despite the setback, Clay books former NFL kicker Jay Feely—now a congressional candidate in Arizona—for Hour 2 after a chance sidewalk meeting.

     

    The conversation quickly pivots to serious geopolitical developments, with a major focus on escalating tensions in the Middle East. Clay and Buck analyze the Trump administration’s strategic posture toward Iran amid reports of U.S. personnel being evacuated from embassies in the region. They discuss the implications of the International Atomic Energy Agency’s (IAEA) declaration that Iran is violating nuclear non-proliferation agreements—marking the first such ruling in 20 years—and the possibility of an imminent Israeli military strike on Iranian nuclear facilities.

     

    President Trump’s firm stance that Iran “cannot have a nuclear weapon” is highlighted, along with his administration’s efforts to support Israel while avoiding direct U.S. military involvement. Buck, drawing on his CIA background, and Clay explore the broader regional dynamics, including the Abraham Accords, Saudi-Israeli relations, and Iran’s weakening influence through proxies like Hezbollah and Hamas. They also examine the internal pressures facing the Iranian regime and speculate on whether a successful Israeli strike could destabilize the theocracy and pave the way for a more democratic future in Iran.

     

    Jay Feely for AZ 

     

    Arizona congressional candidate Jay Feely. The former NFL kicker and sports broadcaster shares his journey from the football field to the political arena, emphasizing his commitment to President Donald Trump’s America First agenda. Feely discusses the challenges of campaign fundraising, the importance of border security, and the economic struggles facing young Americans, particularly in high-cost housing markets like Arizona.

     

    Feely also weighs in on the controversial topic of transgender athletes in women’s sports, defending fairness and safety for female competitors. He recounts his personal experience coaching girls' soccer and criticizes Simone Biles’ comments about Riley Gaines, highlighting the biological advantages male athletes have in women’s sports.

     

    The hour takes a lighter turn as Clay and Buck debate whether Clay could beat WNBA star Angel Reese in a one-on-one basketball game, sparking humorous banter about aging, athleticism, and dad pride. Feely joins in, joking about his own competitive edge and experiences playing with LPGA golfers.

     

    NYC Politics

     

    The upcoming mayoral race doesn't offer good options. Clay and Buck critique progressive candidate Zohran Mamdani’s past support for replacing police with social workers in high-crime areas, contrasting it with the potential return of Andrew Cuomo. Despite Cuomo’s controversial past, Clay argues he may be the most rational Democrat in the race, sparking debate among listeners.

     

    Obedience Training for the Masses  

     

    The escalating national unrest, immigration enforcement, and cultural flashpoints shaping the political landscape under President Donald Trump. The hour opens with a critical analysis of the ongoing protests and riots across major U.S. cities, including Los Angeles, Seattle, and New York City. Clay and Buck emphasize the distinction between peaceful protests and violent riots, highlighting the media's reluctance to acknowledge the latter.

     

    A major focus is on President Trump’s immigration policy, particularly his promise to execute the largest deportation operation in American history. The hosts underscore that this initiative, which prioritizes the removal of violent criminal offenders, aligns with the working-class majority’s support. They also discuss the exploitation of illegal labor by elites and the need for stricter enforcement against employers hiring undocumented workers.

  • Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton!  If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too.

     

    Here’s a sample episode recapping four Tuesday takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.

     

    There's Something Deeper Going On

     

    Dives deep into the escalating crisis in Los Angeles, where ongoing riots tied to illegal immigration enforcement have prompted the deployment of 700 U.S. Marines. Broadcasting from Washington, D.C., Clay and Buck analyze the stark contrast between the current administration under President Donald Trump and the response during the 2020 riots, emphasizing a firmer, law-and-order approach in Trump’s second term.

     

    The hosts explore how the Trump administration is handling the unrest with decisive federal action, contrasting it with the perceived failures of Democrat-led cities and states. They highlight the political and societal consequences of unchecked illegal immigration, including the strain on public services, the manipulation of congressional apportionment due to non-citizen counts, and the broader implications for national sovereignty and the rule of law.

     

    A major theme is the shift in conservative discourse from border wall rhetoric to a more urgent call for mass deportations and interior enforcement. Clay and Buck argue that the Biden-era influx of over 10 million illegal immigrants has created a de facto open border, with long-term consequences for American democracy and representation.

     

    California Gubernatorial Candidate Steve Hilton

    Steve Hilton, gubernatorial candidate in California, provides on-the-ground insight into the destruction in Los Angeles. Hilton describes a total breakdown of law and order, with businesses—many owned by working-class Latinos—devastated by looting and arson. He criticizes California leadership, including Governor Gavin Newsom and Mayor Karen Bass, for prioritizing political pandering over public safety.

     

    The hosts also discuss the media’s portrayal of the riots, calling out CNN and others for downplaying the violence. They credit Elon Musk’s ownership of X (formerly Twitter) for enabling more transparent coverage of the events, undermining the “mostly peaceful protest” narrative.

     

    Additional topics include the historical context of the 1986 Reagan amnesty, the unique challenges posed by illegal immigration from Mexico, and the ideological roots of the current unrest, which Hilton links to decades of leftist indoctrination in education and politics.

     

    WI Sen. Ron Johnson

     

    In-depth interview with Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson on the pressing issue of federal spending, the national debt crisis, and the future of economic policy under the leadership of current President Donald Trump.

     

    This hour centers around the much-discussed “Big Beautiful Bill” currently navigating the U.S. Senate. Senator Johnson, a leading fiscal conservative, outlines the unsustainable trajectory of post-COVID government spending, emphasizing how emergency-level expenditures have become the new budgetary baseline. He contrasts historical fiscal responsibility—such as post-World War II spending reductions—with today’s entrenched budget inflation, highlighting a 58% increase in federal outlays since 2019.

     

    Simone Says Sorry

     

    Simone Biles issues an apology to Riley Gaines, but none of us believe she wrote it. It reads like a horribly written PR statement and doesn't make any sense or sound the least bit authentic.

  • 📍 1. California Protests and Riots

    The episode opens with a discussion about recent unrest in California, particularly in Los Angeles, involving anti-ICE protests. The hosts describe scenes of violence, including cars being set on fire and protesters waving Mexican flags. They criticize Democratic leaders (e.g., Gavin Newsom, Karen Bass, Adam Schiff, Nancy Pelosi) for allegedly supporting or failing to condemn the riots. The narrative suggests that Democrats are siding with violent protesters and undermining law enforcement.

    📍 2. Media Coverage Critique

    The hosts contrast Fox News’ coverage of the events with CNN’s, accusing CNN of downplaying the violence by labeling it as “peaceful protests.” They argue that mainstream media is biased and protects Democratic narratives.

    📍 3. Maryland Man Indicted for Human Trafficking

    The podcast shifts to the case of Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, described as a “Maryland man” and illegal immigrant. He is indicted for human trafficking and alleged to be a member of MS-13, involved in smuggling thousands of undocumented immigrants over nine years. The hosts mock Democratic politicians who previously advocated for his return to the U.S., framing it as a political embarrassment.

    📍 4. Biden’s Use of the Autopen

    The final segment focuses on President Joe Biden’s use of an autopen to sign legislation and issue pardons. Trump and Cruz question the legality and legitimacy of using an autopen for such actions, especially if Biden was unaware of what was being signed. They suggest that if Biden didn’t personally authorize these actions, they could be legally invalid. The discussion includes a legal analysis of the Constitution’s requirements for presidential signatures and references to DOJ opinions and Supreme Court practices.

    Here’s a sample episode recapping four Thursday takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.

     

    Trump's Call with XI

     

    Trump’s recent call with Chinese President Xi Jinping. Buck breaks down the administration’s efforts to renegotiate trade terms, particularly around rare earth materials, and praises Trump’s strategic clarity and leadership—drawing a sharp contrast with the previous Biden administration’s perceived indecisiveness and lack of coherent China policy.

     

    Buck also explores the evolving dynamic between President Trump and Elon Musk, noting some recent friction but expressing hope that their shared goals will keep the relationship productive. He uses this moment to underscore the importance of unity among influential figures who support American innovation and economic strength.

     

    CBP Senior Advisor, Ron Vitiello

     

    Immigration and border security. Ron Vitiello, Senior Advisor to U.S. Customs and Border Protection. Vitello details the dramatic improvements at the southern border under Trump’s leadership, including a 90%+ drop in illegal crossings, increased prosecutions, and the deployment of 10,000 troops. He credits this success to strong leadership, clear policy enforcement, and international cooperation with Mexico and Canada.

     

    Vitiello also updates listeners on the status of the border wall, revealing that over 100 miles have been constructed using remaining funds from Trump’s first term, with plans for 700 additional miles underway. He emphasizes how the administration’s use of tariffs has pressured neighboring countries to step up their border enforcement, contributing to a significant reduction in fentanyl trafficking and cartel activity.

     

    Buck passionately defends ICE and Border Patrol agents, pushing back against political attacks and media narratives that undermine their work. He highlights the dangerous conditions these agents face and the critical role they play in protecting American communities from cartel violence and illegal immigration.

     

    Identity Politics Obsession

     

    Buck critiques a controversial ruling by a Biden-appointed federal judge in Colorado, who blocked the deportation of the family of a convicted terrorist. He warns of the dangers of judicial overreach and the erosion of executive authority, especially when lower court judges act as de facto policymakers.

     

    A major segment of the hour focuses on the unraveling credibility of former Biden administration allies. Buck calls out CNN’s Jake Tapper for attempting to rebrand himself after years of defending the Biden presidency, accusing him of opportunism. He also dissects the political pivot of former White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, who recently announced her departure from the Democratic Party. Buck argues that her appointment was driven by DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion) priorities rather than qualifications, and he critiques the media’s double standards in covering her tenure.

     

    A landmark Supreme Court decision that reaffirms the illegality of reverse discrimination. Buck explains how the unanimous ruling, authored by Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, confirms that all Americans—regardless of race, gender, or sexual orientation—are equally protected under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act. He frames this as a major blow to DEI policies and a win for merit-based hiring.

     

    Bad Blood between Musk and Trump?

     

    Buck addresses a growing rift between President Trump and Elon Musk. He analyzes their recent public spat over government spending and policy disagreements, while emphasizing Trump’s history of reconciliation and strategic alliances. Buck suggests that despite current tensions, the relationship may recover, as both figures remain central to the MAGA movement.

  • 1. Cancellation of Moderna's Bird Flu Vaccine Contract

    The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), under Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., canceled a $766 million contract with Moderna. The contract was intended to fund the development of an mRNA-based vaccine for pandemic influenza, including H5N1 (bird flu). Despite positive early trial results from Moderna, the administration cited scientific, ethical, and safety concerns as reasons for the cancellation. The move reflects RFK Jr.'s skepticism toward mRNA vaccines and aligns with his broader rollback of COVID-19 vaccine recommendations.

    2. FBI Reopening High-Profile Investigations

    FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino announced the reopening or renewed focus on several public corruption cases, including: The January 6 pipe bomb incident. The White House cocaine discovery (July 2023). The leak of the 2022 Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade. Bongino emphasized a push for transparency and public engagement, encouraging tips from the public.

    3. Federal Crackdown on Harvard University

    The Trump administration is canceling or redirecting $100 million in federal contracts with Harvard, following a freeze of $2.6 billion in research grants. The administration cites concerns over campus climate, anti-American sentiment, and violence against Jewish and American students. Additional measures include: Pausing student visa interviews. Implementing new social media screening for foreign students. The administration frames this as a move to redirect funds to trade schools, promote accountability, and encourage institutional self-reliance.

  • 🔥 1. Judicial Power and Nationwide Injunctions

    Main Argument: Senator Cruz criticizes what he describes as an abuse of judicial power by "radical left-wing judges" issuing nationwide injunctions against Trump-era policies. Historical Context: He claims that in the first 150 years of U.S. history, there were no nationwide injunctions, and that the Trump administration faced more such injunctions than any other presidency combined. Political Clash: A heated exchange between Cruz and Senator Cory Booker is highlighted, where they debate the enforcement of laws protecting judges and the political motivations behind judicial actions. Key Themes: Alleged partisan use of the judiciary to block Trump policies. Accusations of selective outrage and hypocrisy from Democrats. Concerns over undermining democratic processes and presidential authority.

    💣 2. Colorado Terror Attack and Immigration Policy

    Incident Overview: The second half discusses a terrorist attack in Boulder, Colorado, allegedly carried out by an Egyptian national affiliated with radical Islamist ideologies. Details: The suspect overstayed a tourist visa, was granted work authorization, and later committed a hate crime targeting Jewish individuals. He was reportedly inspired by anti-Zionist sentiments and had prepared Molotov cocktails. Criticism of Biden Administration: Cruz blames the Biden administration’s immigration policies for allowing such individuals into the country. He argues that open borders have led to national security threats, including the entry of individuals on terrorist watch lists.

  • Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton!  If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too.

    Here’s a sample episode recapping four Tuesday takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.

     

    Biden Policies Aided a Terrorist

    Buck Sexton leads the hour with sharp commentary and analysis, emphasizing the growing strength of President Donald Trump in national polling across key issues like the economy, immigration, and border security. The segment highlights how recent CNN data reflects a significant shift in public sentiment favoring Trump, much to the dismay of Democrats and liberal media outlets.

     

    A major focus of the hour is the escalating crisis of antisemitism in America, particularly in the wake of a targeted firebombing attack in Boulder, Colorado. Buck discusses the ideological roots of this violence, linking it to radical anti-Israel sentiment and the broader rise of pro-Hamas activism on college campuses. He critiques the left’s framing of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, arguing that it is often reduced to a simplistic racial narrative that vilifies Israel and excuses terrorism.

     

    Overwhelm the System

     

    A deep dive into a recent terrorist attack in Boulder, Colorado, allegedly committed by an illegal immigrant who overstayed a visa. Buck uses this incident to underscore the broader crisis of illegal immigration and the exploitation of the U.S. asylum system.

     

    The conversation highlights how the Trump administration has dramatically reduced illegal border crossings—by as much as 99%—compared to the Biden era, which saw millions of illegal entries and “got aways.” Buck emphasizes the critical role of U.S. Border Patrol, debunking left-wing narratives that portray the agency as racist, and instead spotlighting its diverse and veteran-heavy workforce.

     

    A significant portion of the hour is dedicated to the ideological battle over antisemitism, particularly on college campuses, where anti-Israel sentiment is rising. Buck draws parallels between the situation in Gaza and Iran, arguing that while innocent civilians are caught in the crossfire, leadership and ideological extremism are to blame for ongoing violence.

     

    The show also critiques the Biden administration’s handling of immigration enforcement, asserting that lax policies have created a national security risk and opened the door to terrorist infiltration. Former ICE Director Tom Homan is quoted warning of the long-term consequences of these policies, calling for urgent reforms and a temporary halt to asylum claims.

     

    Our Favorite Data Nerd, Ryan Girdusky

     

    Polling data reveals that the Republican Party, under President Trump, has closed the gap with Democrats on middle-class support and economic trust. The discussion includes insights from data guru Ryan Girdusky, host of the “Numbers Game” podcast, who argues that Democrats lack a compelling economic message and are losing ground due to internal disarray and weak leadership.

     

    Ryan discusses interviewing Alex Thompson about his book with Jake Tapper, which reveals Jill Biden’s influence and the financial motivations behind Joe Biden’s continued political career. Buck discusses the party’s lack of a clear successor and the growing influence of figures like Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

     

    Elon Knows Gov't is a Mess 

     

    Elon Musk's criticism of the congressional spending bill, the state of the economy and inflation, the national debt and entitlement programs. Elon Musk pointed out that Big Government was going to happen no matter what party is in office. DOGE limitations. WH Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt with some positive economic news. The arrest of the family of the Boulder, CO terrorist. Buck's personal health and fitness journey.

  •   1. Terror Attack in Boulder, Colorado

    Incident Overview: A violent attack occurred during a peaceful pro-Israel demonstration in Boulder, Colorado, where Molotov cocktails were thrown at elderly Jewish participants, injuring five people—two seriously. Suspect Details: The alleged attacker is identified as an Egyptian national who overstayed a visa and was in the U.S. illegally. He had reportedly received work authorization under the Biden administration. Political Commentary: Cruz and Ferguson frame the attack as part of a broader trend of rising antisemitic violence in the U.S., which they attribute to radical leftist ideologies and lax immigration policies. They criticize the media and local authorities for downplaying the incident and praise the FBI for labeling it a targeted terror attack. Broader Implications: The hosts argue that this attack is part of a growing wave of anti-Israel and anti-American sentiment, likening it to an "intifada" on U.S. soil. They express concern about national security risks stemming from open border policies.

      2. Ukraine’s Drone Strike on Russian Bombers

    Operation Details: Ukraine reportedly executed a sophisticated drone strike, dubbed “Spiderweb,” targeting four Russian air bases and destroying or damaging 41 strategic bombers. The drones were hidden in wooden sheds transported near the bases and launched remotely. Strategic Impact: The attack is described as a major tactical success, potentially causing over $2 billion in damage and hitting 34% of Russia’s strategic cruise missile carriers. Context and Reactions: The strike was in response to a large-scale Russian drone and missile attack. Cruz emphasizes Ukraine’s resilience and ingenuity, contrasting it with early U.S. intelligence assessments that underestimated Ukraine’s capabilities. Geopolitical Outlook: Cruz suggests the war may end in 2025, possibly due to waning U.S. financial support. He advocates for a negotiated settlement that results in a clear loss for Russia, while expressing skepticism about both Putin’s and Zelensky’s willingness to compromise.

  • Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton!  If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too.

     

    Here’s a sample episode recapping four Thursday takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.

     

    Trump's Superpower

     

    a breakdown of the latest developments involving the FBI and internal debates within the GOP about whether Trump administration officials like FBI Director Patel and Deputy Director Bongino are moving fast enough on key reforms. Buck emphasizes the importance of managing expectations while supporting the broader mission of government accountability.

     

    A major segment focuses on Elon Musk’s departure from his role as a special government employee. Buck discusses Musk’s impact on reducing government waste (DOGE) and his return to leading companies like SpaceX, Tesla, and X (formerly Twitter), highlighting Musk’s role as a tech visionary and free speech advocate.

     

    The show then transitions into a deep dive on the “Big Beautiful Bill,” a major legislative effort by the Trump administration. Buck addresses conservative concerns about the lack of visible spending cuts and explains the role of rescissions in the budget process. He features commentary from OMB Director Russell Vought, who confirms that a rescissions package targeting foreign aid and public broadcasting (including NPR and PBS) is being sent to Congress. Buck critiques government funding for media entities, arguing that taxpayer dollars should not support partisan outlets.

     

    The Virus of Leftwing Insanity

     

    Another key topic is the Trump administration’s push to limit foreign student enrollment at elite U.S. universities like Harvard. Buck reacts to a federal judge’s injunction blocking the administration from revoking Harvard’s ability to host foreign students. He frames this as part of a broader judicial resistance to Trump’s agenda and criticizes the high percentage of foreign students in STEM fields at top institutions, particularly from China. Buck argues that this undermines national security and American competitiveness, calling for a rethinking of U.S. higher education policy.

     

    Throughout the hour, Buck underscores the Trump administration’s aggressive, multi-front strategy to implement its agenda despite legal and political obstacles. He praises the administration’s persistence and contrasts it with the more cautious approach of past Republican efforts.

     

    Hostage Shows Receipts

     

    A firsthand account from a former hostage, Omer Shem Tov, held by Hamas, who claims his treatment improved significantly after Donald Trump was elected—underscoring Trump’s perceived strength on foreign policy and national security. Sexton uses this testimony to reinforce the argument that America’s enemies fear Trump’s leadership and are more cautious in their actions when he is in power.

     

    Michelle Obama Cult

     

    A deep dive into the political and cultural influence of former First Lady Michelle Obama, with Buck Sexton leading the conversation while Clay Travis is on vacation. This hour is packed with sharp political commentary, media analysis, and personal insights, making it a must-listen for conservative audiences and political news followers.

     

    Buck opens the hour by revisiting his long-standing prediction that Michelle Obama would never run for president, arguing that the media-manufactured image of her as an untouchable cultural icon has begun to unravel. He critiques the media’s role in creating what he calls the “cult of Michelle Obama,” comparing it to the idolization of figures like the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Buck references Michelle Obama’s recent podcast appearance, highlighting a controversial quote where she stated that “the least important thing” a woman’s reproductive system does is produce life. He calls this statement “heinous” and “perverse,” emphasizing its potential negative impact on young women and public discourse.

     

    The discussion also touches on Michelle Obama’s past comments, including her infamous 2008 remark about being proud of America “for the first time” when Barack Obama was nominated. Buck uses this to underscore what he sees as her long-standing disdain for traditional American values.
