Hour 2 - Former FBI Special Agent, Nicole Parker
By The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show
May 16, 2025
Hour 2 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show dives deep into the controversy surrounding former FBI Director James Comey and a cryptic social media post that has sparked national debate. Clay and Buck are joined by former FBI Special Agent and Fox News contributor Nicole Parker, who offers insider analysis on the implications of Comey’s beach photo featuring the numbers “86 47” spelled out in seashells—a combination widely interpreted as a veiled threat against former President Donald Trump.
Nicole Parker provides a scathing critique of Comey’s tenure, labeling him a narcissist and the root cause of the FBI’s internal decline. She recounts her firsthand experience during his leadership and outlines how the Bureau’s credibility began to erode following Comey’s controversial 2016 announcement regarding Hillary Clinton’s email investigation. The discussion intensifies as Parker and the hosts dissect the potential legal ramifications of Comey’s post, including whether it could warrant a Secret Service investigation or even lead to criminal charges.
Clay Travis, channeling his inner “Sherlock Holmes,” lays out a detailed theory suggesting Comey orchestrated the seashell message himself. He speculates that Comey may have photos on his phone proving intent and possibly attempted to delete them, raising questions about obstruction and digital evidence. The hosts also explore the broader implications of political messaging, symbolism, and the weaponization of social media by public figures.
The conversation shifts to the current state of the FBI under new leadership. Parker discusses the efforts of Director Kash Patel and Deputy Director Dan Bongino to root out corruption and restore integrity within the Bureau. She highlights the internal divide between “FBI One”—agents committed to justice—and “FBI Two”—those allegedly driven by political agendas. The show emphasizes the ongoing cleanup of executive management and problematic field offices, including the reassignment of controversial figures like Elvis Chan.
In addition to the Comey controversy, the hosts briefly touch on escalating tensions in the Middle East, including recent missile attacks on Israel by the Houthis, and the humanitarian efforts of the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.
The hour wraps with a lighter tone as Clay and Buck joke about college football rivalries, fashion faux pas involving seersucker and houndstooth, and Clay’s upcoming trip to the “Gulf of America.” They also promote Crockett Coffee and share a humorous listener voicemail comparing Clay’s detective work to Inspector Clouseau.
