By The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show
November 26, 2025
Hour 2 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show delivers a powerhouse discussion centered on law enforcement, transparency, and accountability under the leadership of FBI Director Kash Patel and current sitting President Donald Trump. This Thanksgiving Eve edition opens with Patel addressing recent media scrutiny from outlets like The New York Times and Wall Street Journal, emphasizing that the FBI is stronger than ever despite baseless attacks. Historic FBI Achievements: Patel reports double the violent offender arrests compared to last year, a 55% drop in Memphis homicides in just three months, and major reductions in murder rates nationwide. The FBI seized 127 million lethal doses of fentanyl, a 31% increase, and dismantled 764 child exploitation networks, marking a 300% surge in pedophile arrests. Under Trump’s directive, the FBI has turned over 40,000 documents to Congress in nine months, far surpassing previous administrations. Patel calls this the most transparent era in FBI history. The show dives into the Epstein Transparency Act, with Patel confirming the Trump administration reopened the case. Despite legal hurdles with the Epstein estate, the FBI remains committed to releasing files while protecting victims’ rights. Hosts question the origins of Epstein’s $600 million estate, sparking a broader conversation on global banking secrecy, offshore accounts in the Cayman Islands, and financial transparency. Patel assures listeners that the FBI followed every lead, briefed President Trump throughout, and found no evidence of a broader conspiracy. All shooter devices and social media accounts were seized, reinforcing the Bureau’s commitment to facts over speculation. Patel advocates for a public, televised trial to counter conspiracy theories, drawing parallels to the O.J. Simpson case and emphasizing maximum transparency. Patel outlines a sweeping purge of leakers and politicized actors, ending the weaponization era of Russiagate-style abuses. He promises continued accountability and high-profile indictments before year-end. Looking ahead, Patel teases major developments in December, including more disclosures and arrests in ongoing high-profile cases such as the NBA/MLB investigation involving Chauncey Billups and Damon Jones. The next hour promises insights from Miranda Devine on judicial accountability and the latest dropped prosecution against President Trump. The hour touches on Jimmy Lai’s imprisonment in Hong Kong, CCP extortion tactics, and calls for Trump to intervene, framing the discussion around free speech and international pressure points. The segment closes with NFL Thanksgiving picks, holiday traditions, and listener debates on topics like seat reclining and height discrimination, adding a lighter touch to a news-heavy hour.
