Hour 1 of today’s Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show dives into major breaking stories and hard-hitting analysis. Buck Sexton is solo hosting while Clay is away on a super secret trip overseas for a very important meeting, and he kicks off the hour with updates on the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which is set for a vote during the program. Buck explains why Democrats are pushing this as a political distraction and emphasizes Donald Trump’s stance: full transparency and release of all Epstein-related documents. The discussion highlights Trump’s past actions, including banning Epstein from his club, and contrasts that with deep ties Epstein had to prominent Democrats like Bill Clinton and Larry Summers.
Buck also addresses the media narrative and propaganda tactics, warning listeners about how focus and repetition are used to smear political opponents. He connects this to his upcoming book, Manufacturing Delusion, which explores the science and history of mind control, propaganda, and mass psychosis. Buck argues that Trump Derangement Syndrome has become a defining pathology of our time, citing expert commentary on how obsessive hatred of Trump has reached clinical levels. He draws parallels to authoritarian regimes and explains how manufactured hysteria threatens American democracy more than any external crisis.
The hour also touches on national priorities overshadowed by political theater, including affordability, energy prices, border security, and the fight against fentanyl. Buck previews later segments featuring Miranda Devine’s explosive reporting on the would-be Trump assassin and Eric Trump’s insights on trade and the economy. He closes Hour 1 by reinforcing the importance of truth, transparency, and resisting mass delusion in today’s political climate.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome everybody to the Tuesday edition of the Clay Travis
and Buck Sexton Show. Just Me today, mister Buck aka
the Buckster, aka the one hundred and three mile per
hour serve tennis man, as I'm known by many, Many
people are saying one hundred three miles an hour. Clay
is out this week. He is on a super secret
(00:22):
special mission. That is all I'm allowed to say. But
he's with his family, he's having a great time, and
he may may be calling in later in the week
from undisclosed places abroad to just say hi to everybody,
because he will miss all of you. But it is
just me here. I have the calm, as they say,
and I plan on taking you on a wonderful journey here,
(00:44):
a magical journey of all of the news stories of
the day and the most important things that we need
to be thinking about, learning about and discussing here and
to that end, eight hundred two ay two to two
eight A two you A on the phone lines. Love
those talkbacks on the iHeart app as well. Our guests today,
Miranda Divine in the second hour, one of my favorite
(01:06):
voices in the world of audio. I will say that
she's got a great voice, great just speaking voice, and
also a fantastic reporter. More importantly, so she'll talk to
us about the New York Post reporting on the would
be Trump assassin who almost plunged this country into the
worst situation it would have seen since the Civil War.
(01:27):
Missed by an inch, a literal inch. I know some
of your say it was even less than an inch,
but we can say an inch. How is it that
not everything about this guy's online life was known? It
seems unfathomable. We'll talk to Miranda about that. We've also
got Eric Trump, son of one of these sons of
the president, in the third hour. We're talking about the economy,
(01:48):
trade deals, and much more. But I know that there's
going to be quite a bit of focus on this today,
so yes, I will certainly speak about what is being
called the Epstein Files Transparency Act that is going to
be voted on in the third hour of the show today.
(02:13):
So I believe I'll be here live with you on
the air as we find out where that's going. I
think the vote is going to be successful and there
will be more documents released relating to the Jeffrey Epstein investigation.
To be clear, Donald Trump has said in recent days,
including yesterday, that fine, and we want to release more,
(02:37):
release whatever, release, whatever you got. This is cut for
and Trump, I think, has just recognized the only way
to stop having to talk about this is to give
whatever transparency anyone thinks they need. Fine, no problem there,
play four. It's just a.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Russia, Russia, Russia hopes as it pertains of the Republicans.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
Now.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
I believe that many of the people that some of
the people that we mentioned are being looked at very
seriously for their relationship to Jeffrey Epstein, But they were
with them all the time. I wasn't at all, and
we'll see what happens. What I just don't want Epstein
to do is detract from the great success of the
(03:19):
Republican Party, including the fact that the Democrats are totally
blamed for the shutdown. You know, they crossed our country
hundreds of billions of dollars with that at a lot
of inconvenience.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
So very important. At first of all, Trump has obviously
got a cold. Is the voice little raspy there? Or
maybe he was just speaking too much? I know that
can happen in the radio world, but it's funny. So
how many Trump is going to be eighty soon. I
know he's like seventy eight. I think'd be seventy nine maybe,
But how many times have you heard him being sick
(03:51):
in the time he's been president. It's very, very rare.
The guy is a dynamo. Everybody around him recognize. I
just marvel at the amount of energy and focus and
drive that he has at his age. It is true.
Whatever one thinks of Trump's policies, I obviously think they're
pretty awesome. It's incredible to be his age and to
(04:11):
have that level of energy and all the rest. But
what Trump said there, I think this is very important.
And notice he said, as it pertains to Republicans, the
Jeffrey Epstein thing is a hoax. And this is what
I think some people have missed and gotten a little
upset about, even some Trump supporters. Obviously, there's no the
(04:34):
Jeffrey Epstein situation. Trump doesn't think is a hoax. He
was a sex criminal, a human trafficker, you know, an
exploiter of underage women. I mean, all these terrible things.
But the Democrats are trying to create a story and
(04:56):
to use the story for pure distraction purposes of well
this it's really about It's really about Trump or any Republican. Now,
I just saw you. You had, you know Larry Summers,
who was the former Treasury secretary under Clinton, right or
is it Obama? I can't remember now it's been a while,
(05:18):
but his former Treasury secretary. I think he's stepping back
after some of these emails have come out. There's nothing,
there's nothing that is alleged that is criminal, but there
are certainly is stuff that looks bad for him. I
think you may see some more of that. What I
think Trump wants everyone to be very clear on is
look at the people who have continuous and deep associations
(05:43):
with Epstein, not who you know bumped into him at party.
He went to a lot of parties, a lot of
parties in Palm Beach's, a lot of parties in New
York and other places where he was gonna rub elbows.
The guy had hundreds of millions of dollars. He was
able to get tremendous access to the absolute elite in
our society. So that was happening. We all know that.
That's a matter of public record. Oh no, wonders was
(06:07):
confusing for me. Larry Summers served under both Bill Clinton
and Barack Obama's administrations. He was what was he? He
was Secretary of the Treasury. Yup? Under Clinton, I was right,
Deputy Secretary of the Treasury, and unders at whatever point
is he's a big, big guy in Democrat politics under
Democrat administrations. Look at the other figures who have gotten
(06:30):
at least big pr damage. And I know a lot
of you are saying, well, that's not you know that
where we're looking for criminality, the evidence of smoking government
evidence of criminality, we don't have that yet. We had it,
I think you would see, you would see charges, but
at least I haven't seen it. We have to be
very careful here too. You know, people they're trying to
(06:54):
smear Trump by association, there are other people they want
to smear by association too, And this is the kind
of stuff that could really, in some cases unfairly destroy
someone's reputation. So you got to be sure. You got
to be sure on this stuff, right. This isn't oh,
did somebody cheat a little bit on their taxes. This
is this goes to the core and the reputations and
(07:18):
the freedom, meaning they could go to prison of individuals.
So that's I think not going to be addressed by
anything that are in this release. I could be wrong.
If I'm wrong, I'll say so. I obviously haven't seen
all the files. I don't know, but Trump has been
making the point if there was more in the files
(07:40):
specifically about Trump, do you think they'd hide it until now?
That's a crazy belief, right that the Democrats would have
had full control, full ability to go through this. They
don't want to release it all as it pertains to
actual transparency, because they'd much rather have little bits and
pieces to try to insinuate that Donald Trump did something wrong.
(08:04):
And I have a firm belief and all the evidence
supports what I've said, and all of the the trajectory
of the revelations around epstein'support that Donald Trump did nothing wrong. Okay,
in fact, you can argue Trump is the good guy
because he kicked Epstein out of his club for being
a creep? Did anybody else do it? You know? Was
(08:25):
there anybody else who was stepping up and saying, this
guy's a you know? And that was before the big
criminal stuff against him. So that's where I think this is.
Here is Trump saying, just just to hammer this home here,
this has cut five. He's just saying, look the Democrat,
Epstein's top connections, Epstein's close associates. I'm not saying anyone
(08:48):
did anything specifically, or I'm not naming any individual with
criminality because we don't have proof of that. You need
proof of these things. But the people who were gross
and around him a lot, they were Democrats. Play five.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
We have nothing to do with Fstein. The Democrats too.
All of his friends were Democrats. You look at this reduff,
and you look at Larry Summers built Lynn and they
went to his island all the time, and many of
this all Democrats. All I want is I want for
people to recognize a great job that I've done on pricing,
on affordability, because we've brought prices way down, but they
(09:22):
go way lower on the energy. On ending eight wars
and another one coming pretty soon. I believe we've done
a great job, and I hate to see that deflect
from the great job we've done.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
I think that's all spot on. I think that's exactly
where the situation is right now. And to be clear,
Trump has said release it all, fine, release it all,
whatever it is. He's not opposing the release. He's like, fine,
release it all because he also knows, even if he
doesn't specifically know what's in those spots, he knows what
he did and didn't do. He knows he didn't do
anything wrong. Okay, and beyond that, he also knows that
(10:01):
his enemies who manufactured crimes against him manufactured them. They
would have, if they had anything, deployed this to destroy him,
even if there was a forget about a smoking gun,
if there was a sentilla of evidence that Trump was
(10:23):
even in the immediate vicinity of any kind of you know,
criminal conspiracy with regard to Epstein, they would have been
running with that NonStop. They don't have it. They don't
have it, so fine, we'll get to this point. I
do think it has been an exercise in media propaganda
by focus, as in how much they focus on something
(10:45):
itself is the propaganda tool. They focus so much they
try to connect to Donald Trump, and they did before
as well. Look at all all the top associates of
Epstein again associates slash friends. Not imputing criminality to anybody
because we don't have evidence against these individuals, right, Trump
(11:05):
isn't saying that they were criminal. He's just saying they
were gross and they were around him, gross as in,
they should have known that this guy was sleazy and
they spent too much time alone with him. I know
a lot of you you know, there's what we can
there's what you know, remember Denzel Washington and training Day.
There's what you know, and there's what you can prove.
We have to operate in the realm of what we
(11:26):
can prove if we're going to make a specific accusation
against an individual that would destroy them. Notice that's not
what Trump is doing. He's saying, listen to the names
of these individuals. We know they hung out with him
a lot. They're all Democrats, they're all big Democrat donors.
They are all very left wing in their politics, or
generally left wing in their politics. Certainly they're Democrats, and
(11:50):
there's no focus on that whatsoever. Bill Clinton spent a
lot of time with this guy on the planes, a
lot of time. We know that. Okay, that's a fact.
That's it. That's an understood fact. Larry Summers was asking
this guy for advice on I believe, like how he
(12:11):
could step stepping out on his wife with a a
a Asian or Chinese uh Men mentee, like a mentor
mentee relationship who has a close relationship with the CCP,
with the Chinese Communist Party, as you know. So there's
there's the criminal, there's also just the unethical and the
(12:33):
sleazy these do you have to parse all these things?
And look, I hope we just get whatever information we
need to know everything about this that we can know.
And I'm gonna tell you this, I don't think there's
a lot that's in those files that's going to be released.
I have I think they absolutely should be released at
this point. Fine, Trump says this should be released. Fine,
(12:55):
And I think that anything that would have been smoking
gun has long it's been and I don't even know
at what part in the in the chain, so to speak,
but as long since been covered up and erased and uh,
you know, whatever the whatever the tapes were, it's et cetera.
All that I think has has occurred here. So we
(13:17):
have to we have to be specific, we have to
be clear. I also completely agree with Trump that there
must be a real degree of frustration. There must be
considerable frustration from his administration for the things that they
are doing that affect all Americans and Democrats get to
play this, uh, you know, Chase the shiny object game
(13:38):
with Oh but look at there's a there's a Trump
Epstein email or something. Uh, he knows. The shutdown was
a disaster for Democrats. They're used to winning those kind
of battles, at least in the public's view, because of
the advantage they have with propaganda in the media. That
didn't happen this time. Schumer. Schumer looks like a schmo,
(14:00):
and that's something that Democrats weren't anticipating going into the
midterm election year. But affordability, prices, the border, the war
on drugs, the war on fentanyl, there's a lot that's
happening right now that is really really important, and I
do think that is where we should spend a good
portion of our time today here. But by all means,
(14:22):
if you have something that you want a weigh in with,
you can let us know. You can email us about
this release of these files, and all right, let's see
what they've got. Considering that we spend about a third

Speaker 1 (15:58):
As I said, there's going to be a vote today
on the Epstein Files Transparency Act. It will happen during
the show, so we'll bring that to you love. But
just a few more notes on this before I moved
to some other topics that we have in the hopper
for today. A Speaker of the House, Johnson is saying,
straight up, this is just Democrats playing politics play twenty seven.
Speaker 4 (16:20):
With so many pressing issues on our plate, just very
frustratingly to us, the Democrats are delaying that work even
further with a political show vote. They're forcing a political
show vote on the Epstein File. So we're just going
to address that right at the top here this morning,
because they've spent so much time, the Democrats have spinning
the facts and trying to confuse the people.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
It's true, it's true. You'll notice that there's really very
little discussion about how the if you are creating a
We used to do these link charts back in the
my NYPD days. Right, Well, people link charts all the time,
but I remember we use link charts for terror cells,
criminal conspiracy of any kind. If you were creating the
(17:06):
the uh you know, if Epstein is the is the
kingpin of the criminal conspiracy, which he is, and then
you were creating an associates link tree off of him,
how many of them would be prominent Democrats? All of them?
Basically is there is there anybody? Isn't that interesting? You
look at people, who is the who is the really big?
Speaker 2 (17:29):
Right?
Speaker 1 (17:29):
Oh, they're gonna say Donald Trump. First of all, Donald
Trump is you know, used to be a Democrat and
second of all a long time ago. And second of all,
what exactly is the is the association that they're referring to? Uh?
Where where is the close and continuing proximity that you've
seen with people like Bill Clinton? Doesn't exist? So I
(17:49):
I just think that we need to put this in
the realm of facts, in reality at all times. And
like I said, we'll see where this vote goes, and
we'll bring this to you later on. I've said it before,

So Trump is in the Oval right now. He's speaking
with the saudis Am I correcting that one. So he's
having a conversation that we May Saudi Crown prints. Yes,
of course, and we may join some of that. Actually,
(19:15):
you know what we're gonna do. We're gonna we're gonna
take it piece by piece. The team is gonna monitor it.
It's happening live right now, and any of the important
takeaways from it we will bring to you momentarily, so
to see we sift through, we bring you only the best,
you know what I mean. It's like we're in the
grocery store, only picking from the good part of the
(19:35):
of the fruit and the vegetables or whatever. We bring
you only the best. But I because right now it's
a lot of pleasantries and stuff. You know, all Trump
meetings are interesting, but it's you know, he's great, I'm great,
great relationship, we love each other, you know, the whole thing.
So we'll get into that. But in the meantime, this
I thought was really interesting. I think we mention this
(19:55):
to you, We mentioned this to you last week, but
I don't think we played this. And I wanted to
play it because I have been making this case for
a long time. And actually it's a good moment to
bring it up because my book is now available for
pre sale and we'll have a link up there. The
(20:18):
book is Manufacturing Delusion. It comes out officially February seventeenth
of next year, which I know it seems like it's
a ways away, but we're about to be in the holiday.
It's gonna fly by. And look, I'll tell you this,
pre sales are really important. I have waited this long
to put out a book, a real full length book,
because I insisted on writing it myself. I only wanted
(20:38):
to write if I could do something that I thought
was important and worthwhile. And I'll be telling you, oh up,
it's up now at clayanbuck dot com. You can go
get some pre order copies. And like I said, preorder
matters because that's how much the publisher then prepares for
that run. And we don't want to run out of
books because it's books are a lot like movie now
(21:00):
in that they live or die in the first few
days of release. That's really how it goes. And I
really wanted this to I think this book is important.
I'll be honest. I got it cleared by the CIA. Obviously,
I've talked about some of my CIA history, so I
got it cleared by the CIA. There is some stuff
(21:21):
in there that I've never talked about publicly before from
my time in the CIA. Those you've asked me for
some stories or what can you tell me? There's some
pretty interesting stuff in there, not a lot, because it's
mostly about the subject matter, but I brought in some
anecdotes too. So it's up at clayanbuck dot com. You
can get that link, or you can click that link
and and please go buy some copies of this early
(21:46):
and that way it'll be a huge success. Why am
I writing Why was it writing up Manufacturing Delusion? I
think that left wing politics in America has created a
unfortunately dangerous new moment where mass delusion is the preferred
weapon of mobilization. They make people crazy, They make them
(22:08):
crazy on purpose. Totalitarian regimes have been doing this for
a long time. In fact, the History and Science of
Mind Control it's the real thing. I get into this
in the book History and Science of Mind Control and
its implementation and perfecting, if you will, over time by
(22:33):
totalitarian regimes have gone hand in hand over the last
hundred years. And he had just at the beginnings of
us understanding. I mean, I started the book with the
celebrated scientist Pavlov. People always talking about Pavlov well, what
if this guy released does what was he really doing?
What was he up to? And interestingly enough, Pavlov comes
(22:55):
into into scientific focus in the early nineteen hundreds and
is a Nobel Laurate and is studying, Hey, how is
it that things that you observe can affect you physically?
How is it that outside stimula we think of the
of the bell, it actually was a metronome or a buzzer.
It wasn't No one was hitting a bell. And the
(23:18):
experiments he did on dogs were actually, in some cases
quite grizzly. So there's there's some stuff that they didn't
teach you about Pavlov in you know, eighth grade science
class that I get into. But understanding how propaganda, how
outside stimuli, how brainwashing actually scientifically and in practice works,
(23:41):
is what the book is about. And I think that's
very important, not just in general in America right now,
but it's important. This week, we saw this guy who
and we'll talk to Miranda Devine about this at one o'clock,
this guy who became a according to the latest reporting, a
they them furry obsessed left wing trantifa lunatic, tried to
(24:06):
kill the president to day. It came very very close. Right,
It's not just a guy who was writing insane stuff
in his basement somewhere. It's a guy who came in
inch away, an inch away from killing a United States president,
stopping a US election from happening in real time, changing
the course of the country. And I just I don't
(24:26):
know how better to say it than plunging us into
the abyss. I don't know what happens to this country.
We're still reeling, we're still processing and grieving for the
horrific assassination of Charlie Kirk, the most important conservative activist
in the country. We were an inch away from losing
the most important conservative politician or right wing politician and
(24:50):
leader of our lifetime as well within a twelve month span.
Something very wrong is happening here and we're all very
aware of it. And I saw a lot of this.
I can't say the specifics obviously of the individuals that
they've targeted, although we all knew they were targeting Trump.
But I saw a lot of this madness unfolding, and
(25:12):
that is why I wrote the book. On Fox News
though just a few days ago, they had a a
psychiatrist or psychotherapist who was on who was speaking about this.
This is not hyperbole. This is not uh, you know,
talk radio rage or something. Not anyway, this show. We
(25:33):
don't do rage here, right, We're just Clay and I.
We tell you, We just give give you what we
think is true and important every day and we're we
always shoot straight with you. You know. Oh there's more
talk radio stuff though, that's just what lets his leftist
agit prop. That's nonsense, you know. Oh they said the
same thing about Rush for thirty years. But here he
(25:54):
is saying this. Fox News guest Jonathan Alpert saying that
venty five percent of the patients that he sees are
hyper fixated on Trump. Listen to this play nineteen.
Speaker 5 (26:06):
People are obsessed with Trump. They're fixated. They're hyper fixated
on Trump, and they talk about some of the features
of this disorder. They can't sleep, they feel traumatized by
mister Trump, they feel restless. I had one patient who
said she couldn't enjoy a vacation because anytime she saw
(26:27):
Trump and the news or on her device, she felt triggered.
So this is a profound pathology, and I would even
go so far as to call it the defining pathology.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
Of our time, defining pathology of our time. That Trump
derangement syndrome is a mass psychosis, a mass psychosis that
has been manufactured, manufactured using similar tactics to what you
would see in an authoritarian regime like communists China and
(27:02):
the cultural revolution like the Soviet Union, and Stalinism like
North Korea and the worship of the Kim dynasty. This
is the book, my friends, I lay it out for you.
This is what is happening, this gentleman, this psychotherapist. It
is clear, it is clear that something has gone very
wrong on our politics. People are obsessive, clinically obsessive in
(27:27):
their hatred for Donald Trump. And that's why I wrote
Manufacturing Delusion. This is a delusion that is being created
intentionally for control, for political purposes. There are tactics, there
is a playbook, and they're doing this very unfortunately for
(27:48):
us successfully, and we see some of the worst outcomes,
some of the worst effects of this process with things
like these trantifemaniacs are going out there because things like
the constant lies about men becoming women, for example, and
(28:10):
how remember that's just the first step of the process,
and the first step of the process is to get
you to say something that you know to be untrue,
to break your tether if you will, to reality. I mean,
there's a there's a quote that I came across from
my research for the book that the real, the sort
(28:32):
of the real skill out there is not convincing people
that they should that they should scale amount and it's
convincing people that there is no mountain right. That's real control.
It's not just getting them to do something, it's getting
them to change their perception of reality itself. There are
(28:54):
people who are losing sleep at night because I think
that climate change is going to make us extinct. That's
a real phenomena on the left. There's no equivalent on
the right. Think about that climate extinction anxiety. There are
people who won't have children now because of what the
left has done to them. There are people who think
that there is a genocide, and that is the term
(29:15):
they use against trans people, because we don't think that
a two hundred pound bearded man should be having a
bench press contest with girls. Think about the beliefs, and
then of course I get into some of this with COVID.
The madness of the Fauciism that was all part of
(29:38):
the playbook. It was all meant to condition by the way,
condition reflex the actual Pavlovian, the actual Pavlovian, you know,
term and history conditional reflex. In fact, it was in
the original Russian. Like I said, you will learn a
lot in this book. I did a ton of research
(30:00):
in this book. It is called Manufacturing Delusion. It is
available for pre sale now, and I would ask you
to please get a copy now so that we don't
run out when everyone's trying to get it the week
that it's released, which I know is in February, but
just do it now while you're thinking about it. I'll
be talking about it more on the show. But this
(30:20):
stuff really matters. I think that manufactured delusion. I think
that manufactured mass hysteria is the single greatest threat to
humanity globally and the single biggest threat to the American Republic.
Right now. We're not going to starve to death. We
can handle all the you know, we can handle whatever pandemics.
(30:42):
We just went through one. We all know what the
reality was of that. We can handle everything else. The
world is not going to melt. But we can't handle insanity.
Mass insanity that sees that seizes control of the apparatus,
that to lie, that forces you to live by lies
(31:03):
that can destroy us entirely. And you'll notice the notice
we're living in it. The reality of anti Trumpism, day
in and day out, is rooted in is of absurdity, lies,
a constant Russia collusion hoax, the preposterous prosecutions, the lies
that he's you know, that he has something to hide
(31:24):
with Epstein, all of this stuff. To a lot of us,
it's just annoying because you you choose to listen to
this show, you choose to stay firmly rooted in reality.
But how many people that you know who voted for
Kamala Harris in this last election? How many leftists for
those of you especially who live in big blue states,
(31:44):
how many leftists do you come across who believe the
most absurd and insane things because they've been told to
and become irrational, become enraged, almost like they've been brought
into a cult, because that's actually what has happened. And
I get into some of those processes too. The whole
(32:06):
point is to override that connection to reality that the listener,
that the subject, the target has, because then you can
rewrite the underlying programming. Then you can this is this
is China, this is mause revolution, break people down, break
them down with fear, break them down with isolation, a
(32:27):
constant assault on their senses of lies, and then you
try to rewrite what's there. Then you try to build
them into the new Soviet Man, which was the whole
project of the Soviet Union. This has all been done before,
and you need to know how it was done then
and how it is being done now. And that is
(32:48):
manufacturing delusion. That is my book, and I want you
to please It's up at clan Buck, but you can
get on Amazon clanbuck dot com, but you can get
on Amazon, get it anywhere. Please get the pre sales.
It took me two years to write this, two years
to write this book and get it cleared by the CIA,
and you do everything, So this was not a slap dash.
(33:09):
It's very important to me that this message get out there,
and I know you'll spread the word and I appreciate
you letting me talk to you about it, all right.
Preborn is a nonprofit organization on a mission to save
the lives of unborn babies from abortion. They know what
they're up against. Too. The ease of access to the
abortion pill is just one example. But Preborn is doing
all they can, day in and day out to just
(33:31):
save as many babies as possible. They've saved the lives
of three hundred and fifty thousand unborn babies to date,
and they have no signs of slowing down. Your support, though,
makes all the difference. Preborn gets no government money and
they all they really need is your support because they
will bring these moms into their clinics and give them
a free ultrasound which is the twenty eight dollars expense
(33:53):
so they can meet their baby. And then beyond that,
once that mother has made the decision to bring that
little life into this world, bring that little boy or
girl into this world, Preborn will support that mom for
two years after the birth.

Speaker 1 (34:46):
Welcome back in here to Clay and Buck. Oh Man,
we got a lot happening, so let me tell you
where we're going. Brandon Divine, who had that huge report
New York Post about the truth of the would be
trumpets at Remember there were It's a little confusing when
we talk about this. There were two would be Trump
assassin's but one got shots off and shot him through
the year. That one, as we know, who got killed
(35:09):
obviously in the attempt. Information about him that how is
it possible the FBI could have missed this? We're going
to talk about that. Also, you're gonna have to just
bear with me here. We don't have time to play
for right now. Trump getting a little spicy, a little
spicy in the Oval office. Some people are saying, hadding
a little spice, little jalapeno, perhaps delicious jalapeno. We will
(35:32):
bring you some of those soundbites here coming up, and
also in the back of the next hour we'll get
to some more some more of the talkbacks and things
we have a d D here, Joseph from Columbus, Georgia.
Let's play it.
Speaker 7 (35:49):
What I take it away from all of this is
that Trump has learned considerably from his first term in
office and how to deal with the media.
Speaker 1 (35:57):
He shuts down the hostile.
Speaker 7 (35:59):
Reporters and zero's right in on the heart of the
matter where they tried taking out left field and make
him look bad. And I think that he's also surrounded
hisself with some sharp, savvy people that protect him and
help him to navigate the shark infested waters.
Speaker 1 (36:15):
Well, yes, I mean, I think. I think Trump was
always a phenomenon of his own at dealing with the media,
but now he's he was fighting an uphill battle against
them in the first term. Now he's on offense and
they're trying to run away in a route. So it's
a different dynamic now. But I hear what you're saying,
(36:38):
and you know, Trump, his ability to deal with the
media is incredible, all right, Mirandon Vine coming up next
big reporting on the almost assassin of Donald Trump. We
will discuss that. Stay around for that coming up.
Welcome everybody to the Tuesday edition of the Clay Travis
and Buck Sexton Show. Just Me today, mister Buck aka
the Buckster, aka the one hundred and three mile per
hour serve tennis man, as I'm known by many, Many
people are saying one hundred three miles an hour. Clay
is out this week. He is on a super secret
(00:22):
special mission. That is all I'm allowed to say. But
he's with his family, he's having a great time, and
he may may be calling in later in the week
from undisclosed places abroad to just say hi to everybody,
because he will miss all of you. But it is
just me here. I have the calm, as they say,
and I plan on taking you on a wonderful journey here,
(00:44):
a magical journey of all of the news stories of
the day and the most important things that we need
to be thinking about, learning about and discussing here and
to that end, eight hundred two ay two to two
eight A two you A on the phone lines. Love
those talkbacks on the iHeart app as well. Our guests today,
Miranda Divine in the second hour, one of my favorite
(01:06):
voices in the world of audio. I will say that
she's got a great voice, great just speaking voice, and
also a fantastic reporter. More importantly, so she'll talk to
us about the New York Post reporting on the would
be Trump assassin who almost plunged this country into the
worst situation it would have seen since the Civil War.
(01:27):
Missed by an inch, a literal inch. I know some
of your say it was even less than an inch,
but we can say an inch. How is it that
not everything about this guy's online life was known? It
seems unfathomable. We'll talk to Miranda about that. We've also
got Eric Trump, son of one of these sons of
the president, in the third hour. We're talking about the economy,
(01:48):
trade deals, and much more. But I know that there's
going to be quite a bit of focus on this today,
so yes, I will certainly speak about what is being
called the Epstein Files Transparency Act that is going to
be voted on in the third hour of the show today.
(02:13):
So I believe I'll be here live with you on
the air as we find out where that's going. I
think the vote is going to be successful and there
will be more documents released relating to the Jeffrey Epstein investigation.
To be clear, Donald Trump has said in recent days,
including yesterday, that fine, and we want to release more,
(02:37):
release whatever, release, whatever you got. This is cut for
and Trump, I think, has just recognized the only way
to stop having to talk about this is to give
whatever transparency anyone thinks they need. Fine, no problem there,
play four. It's just a.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Russia, Russia, Russia hopes as it pertains of the Republicans.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
Now.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
I believe that many of the people that some of
the people that we mentioned are being looked at very
seriously for their relationship to Jeffrey Epstein, But they were
with them all the time. I wasn't at all, and
we'll see what happens. What I just don't want Epstein
to do is detract from the great success of the
(03:19):
Republican Party, including the fact that the Democrats are totally
blamed for the shutdown. You know, they crossed our country
hundreds of billions of dollars with that at a lot
of inconvenience.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
So very important. At first of all, Trump has obviously
got a cold. Is the voice little raspy there? Or
maybe he was just speaking too much? I know that
can happen in the radio world, but it's funny. So
how many Trump is going to be eighty soon. I
know he's like seventy eight. I think'd be seventy nine maybe,
But how many times have you heard him being sick
(03:51):
in the time he's been president. It's very, very rare.
The guy is a dynamo. Everybody around him recognize. I
just marvel at the amount of energy and focus and
drive that he has at his age. It is true.
Whatever one thinks of Trump's policies, I obviously think they're
pretty awesome. It's incredible to be his age and to
(04:11):
have that level of energy and all the rest. But
what Trump said there, I think this is very important.
And notice he said, as it pertains to Republicans, the
Jeffrey Epstein thing is a hoax. And this is what
I think some people have missed and gotten a little
upset about, even some Trump supporters. Obviously, there's no the
(04:34):
Jeffrey Epstein situation. Trump doesn't think is a hoax. He
was a sex criminal, a human trafficker, you know, an
exploiter of underage women. I mean, all these terrible things.
But the Democrats are trying to create a story and
(04:56):
to use the story for pure distraction purposes of well
this it's really about It's really about Trump or any Republican. Now,
I just saw you. You had, you know Larry Summers,
who was the former Treasury secretary under Clinton, right or
is it Obama? I can't remember now it's been a while,
(05:18):
but his former Treasury secretary. I think he's stepping back
after some of these emails have come out. There's nothing,
there's nothing that is alleged that is criminal, but there
are certainly is stuff that looks bad for him. I
think you may see some more of that. What I
think Trump wants everyone to be very clear on is
look at the people who have continuous and deep associations
(05:43):
with Epstein, not who you know bumped into him at party.
He went to a lot of parties, a lot of
parties in Palm Beach's, a lot of parties in New
York and other places where he was gonna rub elbows.
The guy had hundreds of millions of dollars. He was
able to get tremendous access to the absolute elite in
our society. So that was happening. We all know that.
That's a matter of public record. Oh no, wonders was
(06:07):
confusing for me. Larry Summers served under both Bill Clinton
and Barack Obama's administrations. He was what was he? He
was Secretary of the Treasury. Yup? Under Clinton, I was right,
Deputy Secretary of the Treasury, and unders at whatever point
is he's a big, big guy in Democrat politics under
Democrat administrations. Look at the other figures who have gotten
(06:30):
at least big pr damage. And I know a lot
of you are saying, well, that's not you know that
where we're looking for criminality, the evidence of smoking government
evidence of criminality, we don't have that yet. We had it,
I think you would see, you would see charges, but
at least I haven't seen it. We have to be
very careful here too. You know, people they're trying to
(06:54):
smear Trump by association, there are other people they want
to smear by association too, And this is the kind
of stuff that could really, in some cases unfairly destroy
someone's reputation. So you got to be sure. You got
to be sure on this stuff, right. This isn't oh,
did somebody cheat a little bit on their taxes. This
is this goes to the core and the reputations and
(07:18):
the freedom, meaning they could go to prison of individuals.
So that's I think not going to be addressed by
anything that are in this release. I could be wrong.
If I'm wrong, I'll say so. I obviously haven't seen
all the files. I don't know, but Trump has been
making the point if there was more in the files
(07:40):
specifically about Trump, do you think they'd hide it until now?
That's a crazy belief, right that the Democrats would have
had full control, full ability to go through this. They
don't want to release it all as it pertains to
actual transparency, because they'd much rather have little bits and
pieces to try to insinuate that Donald Trump did something wrong.
(08:04):
And I have a firm belief and all the evidence
supports what I've said, and all of the the trajectory
of the revelations around epstein'support that Donald Trump did nothing wrong. Okay,
in fact, you can argue Trump is the good guy
because he kicked Epstein out of his club for being
a creep? Did anybody else do it? You know? Was
(08:25):
there anybody else who was stepping up and saying, this
guy's a you know? And that was before the big
criminal stuff against him. So that's where I think this is.
Here is Trump saying, just just to hammer this home here,
this has cut five. He's just saying, look the Democrat,
Epstein's top connections, Epstein's close associates. I'm not saying anyone
(08:48):
did anything specifically, or I'm not naming any individual with
criminality because we don't have proof of that. You need
proof of these things. But the people who were gross
and around him a lot, they were Democrats. Play five.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
We have nothing to do with Fstein. The Democrats too.
All of his friends were Democrats. You look at this reduff,
and you look at Larry Summers built Lynn and they
went to his island all the time, and many of
this all Democrats. All I want is I want for
people to recognize a great job that I've done on pricing,
on affordability, because we've brought prices way down, but they
(09:22):
go way lower on the energy. On ending eight wars
and another one coming pretty soon. I believe we've done
a great job, and I hate to see that deflect
from the great job we've done.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
I think that's all spot on. I think that's exactly
where the situation is right now. And to be clear,
Trump has said release it all, fine, release it all,
whatever it is. He's not opposing the release. He's like, fine,
release it all because he also knows, even if he
doesn't specifically know what's in those spots, he knows what
he did and didn't do. He knows he didn't do
anything wrong. Okay, and beyond that, he also knows that
(10:01):
his enemies who manufactured crimes against him manufactured them. They
would have, if they had anything, deployed this to destroy him,
even if there was a forget about a smoking gun,
if there was a sentilla of evidence that Trump was
(10:23):
even in the immediate vicinity of any kind of you know,
criminal conspiracy with regard to Epstein, they would have been
running with that NonStop. They don't have it. They don't
have it, so fine, we'll get to this point. I
do think it has been an exercise in media propaganda
by focus, as in how much they focus on something
(10:45):
itself is the propaganda tool. They focus so much they
try to connect to Donald Trump, and they did before
as well. Look at all all the top associates of
Epstein again associates slash friends. Not imputing criminality to anybody
because we don't have evidence against these individuals, right, Trump
(11:05):
isn't saying that they were criminal. He's just saying they
were gross and they were around him, gross as in,
they should have known that this guy was sleazy and
they spent too much time alone with him. I know
a lot of you you know, there's what we can
there's what you know, remember Denzel Washington and training Day.
There's what you know, and there's what you can prove.
We have to operate in the realm of what we
(11:26):
can prove if we're going to make a specific accusation
against an individual that would destroy them. Notice that's not
what Trump is doing. He's saying, listen to the names
of these individuals. We know they hung out with him
a lot. They're all Democrats, they're all big Democrat donors.
They are all very left wing in their politics, or
generally left wing in their politics. Certainly they're Democrats, and
(11:50):
there's no focus on that whatsoever. Bill Clinton spent a
lot of time with this guy on the planes, a
lot of time. We know that. Okay, that's a fact.
That's it. That's an understood fact. Larry Summers was asking
this guy for advice on I believe, like how he
(12:11):
could step stepping out on his wife with a a
a Asian or Chinese uh Men mentee, like a mentor
mentee relationship who has a close relationship with the CCP,
with the Chinese Communist Party, as you know. So there's
there's the criminal, there's also just the unethical and the
(12:33):
sleazy these do you have to parse all these things?
And look, I hope we just get whatever information we
need to know everything about this that we can know.
And I'm gonna tell you this, I don't think there's
a lot that's in those files that's going to be released.
I have I think they absolutely should be released at
this point. Fine, Trump says this should be released. Fine,
(12:55):
And I think that anything that would have been smoking
gun has long it's been and I don't even know
at what part in the in the chain, so to speak,
but as long since been covered up and erased and uh,
you know, whatever the whatever the tapes were, it's et cetera.
All that I think has has occurred here. So we
(13:17):
have to we have to be specific, we have to
be clear. I also completely agree with Trump that there
must be a real degree of frustration. There must be
considerable frustration from his administration for the things that they
are doing that affect all Americans and Democrats get to
play this, uh, you know, Chase the shiny object game
(13:38):
with Oh but look at there's a there's a Trump
Epstein email or something. Uh, he knows. The shutdown was
a disaster for Democrats. They're used to winning those kind
of battles, at least in the public's view, because of
the advantage they have with propaganda in the media. That
didn't happen this time. Schumer. Schumer looks like a schmo,
(14:00):
and that's something that Democrats weren't anticipating going into the
midterm election year. But affordability, prices, the border, the war
on drugs, the war on fentanyl, there's a lot that's
happening right now that is really really important, and I
do think that is where we should spend a good
portion of our time today here. But by all means,
(14:22):
if you have something that you want a weigh in with,
you can let us know. You can email us about
this release of these files, and all right, let's see
what they've got. Considering that we spend about a third

Speaker 1 (15:58):
As I said, there's going to be a vote today
on the Epstein Files Transparency Act. It will happen during
the show, so we'll bring that to you love. But
just a few more notes on this before I moved
to some other topics that we have in the hopper
for today. A Speaker of the House, Johnson is saying,
straight up, this is just Democrats playing politics play twenty seven.
Speaker 4 (16:20):
With so many pressing issues on our plate, just very
frustratingly to us, the Democrats are delaying that work even
further with a political show vote. They're forcing a political
show vote on the Epstein File. So we're just going
to address that right at the top here this morning,
because they've spent so much time, the Democrats have spinning
the facts and trying to confuse the people.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
It's true, it's true. You'll notice that there's really very
little discussion about how the if you are creating a
We used to do these link charts back in the
my NYPD days. Right, Well, people link charts all the time,
but I remember we use link charts for terror cells,
criminal conspiracy of any kind. If you were creating the
(17:06):
the uh you know, if Epstein is the is the
kingpin of the criminal conspiracy, which he is, and then
you were creating an associates link tree off of him,
how many of them would be prominent Democrats? All of them?
Basically is there is there anybody? Isn't that interesting? You
look at people, who is the who is the really big?
Speaker 2 (17:29):
Right?
Speaker 1 (17:29):
Oh, they're gonna say Donald Trump. First of all, Donald
Trump is you know, used to be a Democrat and
second of all a long time ago. And second of all,
what exactly is the is the association that they're referring to? Uh?
Where where is the close and continuing proximity that you've
seen with people like Bill Clinton? Doesn't exist? So I
(17:49):
I just think that we need to put this in
the realm of facts, in reality at all times. And
like I said, we'll see where this vote goes, and
we'll bring this to you later on. I've said it before,
at it again. You need energy for your every day

So Trump is in the Oval right now. He's speaking
with the saudis Am I correcting that one. So he's
having a conversation that we May Saudi Crown prints. Yes,
of course, and we may join some of that. Actually,
(19:15):
you know what we're gonna do. We're gonna we're gonna
take it piece by piece. The team is gonna monitor it.
It's happening live right now, and any of the important
takeaways from it we will bring to you momentarily, so
to see we sift through, we bring you only the best,
you know what I mean. It's like we're in the
grocery store, only picking from the good part of the
(19:35):
of the fruit and the vegetables or whatever. We bring
you only the best. But I because right now it's
a lot of pleasantries and stuff. You know, all Trump
meetings are interesting, but it's you know, he's great, I'm great,
great relationship, we love each other, you know, the whole thing.
So we'll get into that. But in the meantime, this
I thought was really interesting. I think we mention this
(19:55):
to you, We mentioned this to you last week, but
I don't think we played this. And I wanted to
play it because I have been making this case for
a long time. And actually it's a good moment to
bring it up because my book is now available for
pre sale and we'll have a link up there. The
(20:18):
book is Manufacturing Delusion. It comes out officially February seventeenth
of next year, which I know it seems like it's
a ways away, but we're about to be in the holiday.
It's gonna fly by. And look, I'll tell you this,
pre sales are really important. I have waited this long
to put out a book, a real full length book,
because I insisted on writing it myself. I only wanted
(20:38):
to write if I could do something that I thought
was important and worthwhile. And I'll be telling you, oh up,
it's up now at clayanbuck dot com. You can go
get some pre order copies. And like I said, preorder
matters because that's how much the publisher then prepares for
that run. And we don't want to run out of
books because it's books are a lot like movie now
(21:00):
in that they live or die in the first few
days of release. That's really how it goes. And I
really wanted this to I think this book is important.
I'll be honest. I got it cleared by the CIA. Obviously,
I've talked about some of my CIA history, so I
got it cleared by the CIA. There is some stuff
(21:21):
in there that I've never talked about publicly before from
my time in the CIA. Those you've asked me for
some stories or what can you tell me? There's some
pretty interesting stuff in there, not a lot, because it's
mostly about the subject matter, but I brought in some
anecdotes too. So it's up at clayanbuck dot com. You
can get that link, or you can click that link
and and please go buy some copies of this early
(21:46):
and that way it'll be a huge success. Why am
I writing Why was it writing up Manufacturing Delusion? I
think that left wing politics in America has created a
unfortunately dangerous new moment where mass delusion is the preferred
weapon of mobilization. They make people crazy, They make them
(22:08):
crazy on purpose. Totalitarian regimes have been doing this for
a long time. In fact, the History and Science of
Mind Control it's the real thing. I get into this
in the book History and Science of Mind Control and
its implementation and perfecting, if you will, over time by
(22:33):
totalitarian regimes have gone hand in hand over the last
hundred years. And he had just at the beginnings of
us understanding. I mean, I started the book with the
celebrated scientist Pavlov. People always talking about Pavlov well, what
if this guy released does what was he really doing?
What was he up to? And interestingly enough, Pavlov comes
(22:55):
into into scientific focus in the early nineteen hundreds and
is a Nobel Laurate and is studying, Hey, how is
it that things that you observe can affect you physically?
How is it that outside stimula we think of the
of the bell, it actually was a metronome or a buzzer.
It wasn't No one was hitting a bell. And the
(23:18):
experiments he did on dogs were actually, in some cases
quite grizzly. So there's there's some stuff that they didn't
teach you about Pavlov in you know, eighth grade science
class that I get into. But understanding how propaganda, how
outside stimuli, how brainwashing actually scientifically and in practice works,
(23:41):
is what the book is about. And I think that's
very important, not just in general in America right now,
but it's important. This week, we saw this guy who
and we'll talk to Miranda Devine about this at one o'clock,
this guy who became a according to the latest reporting, a
they them furry obsessed left wing trantifa lunatic, tried to
(24:06):
kill the president to day. It came very very close. Right,
It's not just a guy who was writing insane stuff
in his basement somewhere. It's a guy who came in
inch away, an inch away from killing a United States president,
stopping a US election from happening in real time, changing
the course of the country. And I just I don't
(24:26):
know how better to say it than plunging us into
the abyss. I don't know what happens to this country.
We're still reeling, we're still processing and grieving for the
horrific assassination of Charlie Kirk, the most important conservative activist
in the country. We were an inch away from losing
the most important conservative politician or right wing politician and
(24:50):
leader of our lifetime as well within a twelve month span.
Something very wrong is happening here and we're all very
aware of it. And I saw a lot of this.
I can't say the specifics obviously of the individuals that
they've targeted, although we all knew they were targeting Trump.
But I saw a lot of this madness unfolding, and
(25:12):
that is why I wrote the book. On Fox News
though just a few days ago, they had a a
psychiatrist or psychotherapist who was on who was speaking about this.
This is not hyperbole. This is not uh, you know,
talk radio rage or something. Not anyway, this show. We
(25:33):
don't do rage here, right, We're just Clay and I.
We tell you, We just give give you what we
think is true and important every day and we're we
always shoot straight with you. You know. Oh there's more
talk radio stuff though, that's just what lets his leftist
agit prop. That's nonsense, you know. Oh they said the
same thing about Rush for thirty years. But here he
(25:54):
is saying this. Fox News guest Jonathan Alpert saying that
venty five percent of the patients that he sees are
hyper fixated on Trump. Listen to this play nineteen.
Speaker 5 (26:06):
People are obsessed with Trump. They're fixated. They're hyper fixated
on Trump, and they talk about some of the features
of this disorder. They can't sleep, they feel traumatized by
mister Trump, they feel restless. I had one patient who
said she couldn't enjoy a vacation because anytime she saw
(26:27):
Trump and the news or on her device, she felt triggered.
So this is a profound pathology, and I would even
go so far as to call it the defining pathology.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
Of our time, defining pathology of our time. That Trump
derangement syndrome is a mass psychosis, a mass psychosis that
has been manufactured, manufactured using similar tactics to what you
would see in an authoritarian regime like communists China and
(27:02):
the cultural revolution like the Soviet Union, and Stalinism like
North Korea and the worship of the Kim dynasty. This
is the book, my friends, I lay it out for you.
This is what is happening, this gentleman, this psychotherapist. It
is clear, it is clear that something has gone very
wrong on our politics. People are obsessive, clinically obsessive in
(27:27):
their hatred for Donald Trump. And that's why I wrote
Manufacturing Delusion. This is a delusion that is being created
intentionally for control, for political purposes. There are tactics, there
is a playbook, and they're doing this very unfortunately for
(27:48):
us successfully, and we see some of the worst outcomes,
some of the worst effects of this process with things
like these trantifemaniacs are going out there because things like
the constant lies about men becoming women, for example, and
(28:10):
how remember that's just the first step of the process,
and the first step of the process is to get
you to say something that you know to be untrue,
to break your tether if you will, to reality. I mean,
there's a there's a quote that I came across from
my research for the book that the real, the sort
(28:32):
of the real skill out there is not convincing people
that they should that they should scale amount and it's
convincing people that there is no mountain right. That's real control.
It's not just getting them to do something, it's getting
them to change their perception of reality itself. There are
(28:54):
people who are losing sleep at night because I think
that climate change is going to make us extinct. That's
a real phenomena on the left. There's no equivalent on
the right. Think about that climate extinction anxiety. There are
people who won't have children now because of what the
left has done to them. There are people who think
that there is a genocide, and that is the term
(29:15):
they use against trans people, because we don't think that
a two hundred pound bearded man should be having a
bench press contest with girls. Think about the beliefs, and
then of course I get into some of this with COVID.
The madness of the Fauciism that was all part of
(29:38):
the playbook. It was all meant to condition by the way,
condition reflex the actual Pavlovian, the actual Pavlovian, you know,
term and history conditional reflex. In fact, it was in
the original Russian. Like I said, you will learn a
lot in this book. I did a ton of research
(30:00):
in this book. It is called Manufacturing Delusion. It is
available for pre sale now, and I would ask you
to please get a copy now so that we don't
run out when everyone's trying to get it the week
that it's released, which I know is in February, but
just do it now while you're thinking about it. I'll
be talking about it more on the show. But this
(30:20):
stuff really matters. I think that manufactured delusion. I think
that manufactured mass hysteria is the single greatest threat to
humanity globally and the single biggest threat to the American Republic.
Right now. We're not going to starve to death. We
can handle all the you know, we can handle whatever pandemics.
(30:42):
We just went through one. We all know what the
reality was of that. We can handle everything else. The
world is not going to melt. But we can't handle insanity.
Mass insanity that sees that seizes control of the apparatus,
that to lie, that forces you to live by lies
(31:03):
that can destroy us entirely. And you'll notice the notice
we're living in it. The reality of anti Trumpism, day
in and day out, is rooted in is of absurdity, lies,
a constant Russia collusion hoax, the preposterous prosecutions, the lies
that he's you know, that he has something to hide
(31:24):
with Epstein, all of this stuff. To a lot of us,
it's just annoying because you you choose to listen to
this show, you choose to stay firmly rooted in reality.
But how many people that you know who voted for
Kamala Harris in this last election? How many leftists for
those of you especially who live in big blue states,
(31:44):
how many leftists do you come across who believe the
most absurd and insane things because they've been told to
and become irrational, become enraged, almost like they've been brought
into a cult, because that's actually what has happened. And
I get into some of those processes too. The whole
(32:06):
point is to override that connection to reality that the listener,
that the subject, the target has, because then you can
rewrite the underlying programming. Then you can this is this
is China, this is mause revolution, break people down, break
them down with fear, break them down with isolation, a
(32:27):
constant assault on their senses of lies, and then you
try to rewrite what's there. Then you try to build
them into the new Soviet Man, which was the whole
project of the Soviet Union. This has all been done before,
and you need to know how it was done then
and how it is being done now. And that is
(32:48):
manufacturing delusion. That is my book, and I want you
to please It's up at clan Buck, but you can
get on Amazon clanbuck dot com, but you can get
on Amazon, get it anywhere. Please get the pre sales.
It took me two years to write this, two years
to write this book and get it cleared by the CIA,
and you do everything, So this was not a slap dash.
(33:09):
It's very important to me that this message get out there,
and I know you'll spread the word and I appreciate
you letting me talk to you about it, all right.
Preborn is a nonprofit organization on a mission to save
the lives of unborn babies from abortion. They know what
they're up against. Too. The ease of access to the
abortion pill is just one example. But Preborn is doing
all they can, day in and day out to just
(33:31):
save as many babies as possible. They've saved the lives
of three hundred and fifty thousand unborn babies to date,
and they have no signs of slowing down. Your support, though,
makes all the difference. Preborn gets no government money and
they all they really need is your support because they
will bring these moms into their clinics and give them
a free ultrasound which is the twenty eight dollars expense
(33:53):
so they can meet their baby. And then beyond that,
once that mother has made the decision to bring that
little life into this world, bring that little boy or
girl into this world, Preborn will support that mom for
two years after the birth.
Speaker 3 (34:09):
Of the baby with with material.
Speaker 1 (34:10):
Assistance, food, clothing, housing assistance, job placement, whatever they can do.
They will help to donate securely to this incredibly worthy organization.

Speaker 1 (34:46):
Welcome back in here to Clay and Buck. Oh Man,
we got a lot happening, so let me tell you
where we're going. Brandon Divine, who had that huge report
New York Post about the truth of the would be
trumpets at Remember there were It's a little confusing when
we talk about this. There were two would be Trump
assassin's but one got shots off and shot him through
the year. That one, as we know, who got killed
(35:09):
obviously in the attempt. Information about him that how is
it possible the FBI could have missed this? We're going
to talk about that. Also, you're gonna have to just
bear with me here. We don't have time to play
for right now. Trump getting a little spicy, a little
spicy in the Oval office. Some people are saying, hadding
a little spice, little jalapeno, perhaps delicious jalapeno. We will
(35:32):
bring you some of those soundbites here coming up, and
also in the back of the next hour we'll get
to some more some more of the talkbacks and things
we have a d D here, Joseph from Columbus, Georgia.
Let's play it.
Speaker 7 (35:49):
What I take it away from all of this is
that Trump has learned considerably from his first term in
office and how to deal with the media.
Speaker 1 (35:57):
He shuts down the hostile.
Speaker 7 (35:59):
Reporters and zero's right in on the heart of the
matter where they tried taking out left field and make
him look bad. And I think that he's also surrounded
hisself with some sharp, savvy people that protect him and
help him to navigate the shark infested waters.
Speaker 1 (36:15):
Well, yes, I mean, I think. I think Trump was
always a phenomenon of his own at dealing with the media,
but now he's he was fighting an uphill battle against
them in the first term. Now he's on offense and
they're trying to run away in a route. So it's
a different dynamic now. But I hear what you're saying,
(36:38):
and you know, Trump, his ability to deal with the
media is incredible, all right, Mirandon Vine coming up next
big reporting on the almost assassin of Donald Trump. We
will discuss that. Stay around for that coming up.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
