Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to the best of Clay Travis and Buck Sexton.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Welcome back in Clay Travis Buck Sexton Show. Appreciate all
of you hanging out with us. We're going to get
to some of your calls, by the way, before we
finish the second hour here scheduled to be joined by
Daniel Cameron, the Attorney General of Kentucky, who is now
the nominee for the Republican Party to take on Governor Basher,
the Democrat governor in the state of Kentucky. We'll discuss
(00:25):
that upcoming campaign with him November. Obviously, not a ton
of elections that are going on, the Kentucky Governor's race
will be one of those that stands out as a
very significant arbiter on what we may be expecting going forward.
But Buck, I wanted to play some of this for you.
Obviously you've got a CIA background, but the FBI, in particular,
(00:46):
I guess the CIA two over the fifty one intelligence
agents who signed, but in particular the FBI, in the
wake of the Durham Report has been under siege and
Jim Jordan wanted everybody out there who was testifying to
know that you will be targeted Democrats are going to
come after you if you decide to speak out and
(01:06):
tell the truth. Let's listen to cutting one our friend,
Democrat Congressman from Ohio, Jim Jordan, laying it out.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
Three of those brave whistle blowers and a lawyer who
represents them will tell us their story. They will tell
us what happened, what they saw, and then what happened
to them because they were courageous enough to report it
to Congress.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
I just want to.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
Tell you, guys, get ready, get ready, because these guys
are going to come after you. You know they are.
Last yearing we had we had two journalists Democrats, two
Democrat journalists set right where you guys did, and these
guys tried to get them to divulge their sources. Someone
needs to tell them how the First Amendment works. And
while mister Tayabi, one of those award winning journalists setting
(01:48):
right where you're setting, was testifying, guess what else was happening,
the irs was knocking on his door. So get ready.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
You have never seen clay bureaucracy move with the speed
and ferocity it does as when there's someone from the
inside who's trying to go to Congress and say something
fouls happening where I work. True with the FBI, it
is true at the CIA, and we have all these
(02:17):
people that well, we tell people that they have whistleblower protections,
but hmmm, not so much, because what ends up happening
is the agencies involved will, sure, you can go testify
before Congress, but they'll remember and six months later or
eighteen months later or whatever, you know, then they decide
(02:38):
they're going to go through your time in attendance reports.
Then they decide, hey, did you have any unauthorized contact
with a journalist at a cocktail party? Then they decide
to polygraph you or look at whether they're gonna pull
your clearance. They act like internally the Stazi of East
Germany when it comes to any threat to the federal
bureaucrats purview. And you have to all to understand that
(03:01):
the Democrat donations from these places show you what's happened.
They are not entirely but largely now party organs, and
that's reflected in what we saw with Komee and McCabe
and all these guys who went after Trump. So I'm
hopeful that this information will get out there about the
(03:21):
whistleblowers and will at least get it on the record.
But I think it goes to show you that anyone
who thinks that these places can wash their own laundry
doesn't know how they actually function and also how corrupted
they've become internally, not just as a function of leadership,
but as a function of culture. And I know this
from people who have recently left CIA who talked to
(03:42):
me about this. I know people still inside who tell
me what's going on. And same thing with the FBI,
and not as plugged in there, but similar stories. I
know some FBI agents, So I think that people should
know this. But it's a long term problem we're trying
to fix here, and you need someone, as I was saying,
what was it yesterday, you need somebody who understands how
(04:04):
these places function in order to clean them up. Because
we can't even abolish the TSA. We're going to abolish
the FBI. And it's nice, it's a nice SoundBite. I'm
with it, but you know, fool me once can't get
fooled again. I remember when people were telling me they're
going to bolish the IRS a few years ago. That
didn't happen.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Yeah, And also I think we had a great call.
If you remember from a twenty seven year FBI veteran
down in Florida earlier this week, it's important to note
that you can and he said, ninety percent of FBI
agents are good dudes and gals just trying to catch
bad guys. But at the top of the FBI, I
don't think there's any doubt at all that the head
(04:43):
of the FBI is rotten and has become a very
political based organization. And let's listen to this. By the way,
Garrett O'Boyle, he says, bad guys are running parts of
the government. This is an FBI whistleblower. This is what
he testified to listen to.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
Cut to starting to defend this country from enemies, both
foreign and domestic, even if that means sacrificing my life.
My oath, however, did not include sacrificing the hopes, dreams,
and livelihood of my family. In weaponized fashion, the FBI
allowed me to accept orders to a new position halfway
across the country. They allowed us to sell my family's home.
They ordered me to report to the new unit when
our youngest daughter was two weeks old. Then on my
(05:19):
first day on the new assignment. They suspended me, rendering
my family homeless. They refused to release our goods, including
our clothes, for weeks. All I wanted to do was
serve my country by stopping bad guys and protecting the innocent.
To my chagrin, bad guys have begun running parts of
the government, making it difficult to continue to serve this
(05:39):
nation and protect the innocent.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
This is where we are, Buck, and I mean, that's
difficult to hear that testimony. But I hope that we've
been talking, and we'll take some of these calls to
close out the hour. We've been talking Buck a great
deal about the Republican primary. I hope that the Republican
candidates who want to be the nominee in twenty twenty four,
(06:02):
we'll discuss what they will do to fix our FBI,
to fix frankly, our military. The leadership of the military,
the FBI, and the CIA has got to change in
order for the culture to truly be adjusted.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
It's about leadership, culture, mission, and honestly, also having a
really clear framework of what's acceptable and unacceptable behavior, and
that goes to all those other issues as well. I
think it's worth everybody being reminded of the fact that
this isn't even some of these whistleblowers. You just heard
(06:37):
that guy, and I'm here in this I'm going, yep,
that's what they do. You know they do in the NYPD,
and I know we got a lot of current and
former NYPD listen to the show. If they if you
get on the wrong side of your superiors, they give
you something called the highway therapy. Highway therapy is when
they figure out where you live and the precinct that
is the absolute furthest from that and assign you to
(06:59):
that precinct. That means now instead of your commute maybe
being twenty minutes or thirty minutes of the morning, I mean,
if you get sent out to far rockaway and you
live in you know, the North Bronx, you're timmitting about
an hour and a half to get to work every day.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
Right.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
So there's a whole range of ways that they punish people.
On the whistleblowers that we're talking about here, some of
them this wasn't about Trump. I want everyone to understand
that this wasn't about Trump necessarily. Some of it was.
But in some cases these whistleblowers came forward because the
Biden DOJ was targeting parents who were concerned at school
(07:35):
board meetings and treating them in memos as though they
are a domestic terrorism threat. Oh, you showed up to
school because you know, little Bobby and little Sarah were
being masked up in the first grade after having their
school shut down for eighteen months. Maybe you're a domestic terrorist.
That's what Merrick Garland and his goons think of you.
(07:57):
So I think everyone has to understand that this isn't
even This is way beyond just even the weaponization against Trump,
which has also been a very real thing.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Yeah, and we talked about this too. When you send
the message that domestic extremism and white supremacy are the
biggest threats to our country, then you're gonna get all
of these people who want to elevate their job. They're
gonna go find those criminals. And the sad thing is
(08:26):
you can find just about every single one of you
out there listening to us right now. If a dragnet
was put on your life, they could find something that
you have done in your time, maybe a tax return,
Maybe it's something that was involved in some sort of
business that you were associated with. If you get the
(08:47):
full car wash treatment from a federal agency and investigation.
Fuck you know this, they can find you having violated
some law. Almost every single one of us out there
would not be completely clean if they put you through
the car wash and tried to decide whether or not
to throw the book at you. And that's the message
that they're sending to all these individuals out there.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
You can handle the truth.
Speaker 6 (09:12):
More.
Speaker 1 (09:12):

The iHeart app also free and dcribe the Clan Buck
Show or wherever you get your podcasts. Also, I want
to give a little shout out here. I appeared on
the Sean Ryan Show, which I think many of you,
especially former law enforcement, former military, tend to be very
(10:15):
big Sean Ryan listeners. I was on the Sean Ryan
Program and the episode just got released today. I think
it's three and a half hours long, and so we
talk about all kinds of stuff ranging from the COMMI
propaganda machine to what I saw in the CIA that
(10:36):
was the beginning of me wanting to leave, to the
cover up with Epstein trans agenda so much. It's three
and a half hours long. So it's the Sean Ryan
Show that I appeared on, and I hope a lot
of you go check it out. Shawn's a great guy.
He's former seal, former former agency contractor, so it was
(10:59):
really a tree to get to sit down with him
and talk for a few hours. So check that one out.
All right, we have some great stuff here coming to
the here we go. This is a vip E. Well,
now I want to admit something to you all. Clay
was trying to be funny. I don't actually I wish
I knew how to knit, but I do not. I
(11:20):
don't even know how to put a button back on
a shirt, a dress shirt, which I honestly want to
learn how to do. Since I married Carrie, I've gotten
better because I don't want her to know that I'm
not great with hammers and nails. I like guns, but
I don't know much about hammers and nails. So I'm
trying to get better at the Home Improvement home depot stuff.
(11:41):
I do cook a lot, though I like to cook,
and I actually enjoy I enjoy cleaning and doing laundry,
So you know, there are just certain things that I like. Cleanliness.
I'll tell you this. I like cleanliness. I also like silence,
which is weird maybe for a radio guy, but I
like quiet. But some of you are writing in about
my ability to knit, and I wish that was just
(12:02):
Clay being Clay and having some fun with me. But
Patricia wrote in, I thought this was really inserting one
of our VIPs. My father was a lieutenant in the
Army Air Corps during World War Two. He spent eighteen
months in a German prison camp. I watched and listened
to my father talk about knitting and unknitting. His socks.
Because he was an officer, he was not allowed to work,
(12:24):
so he learned to knit and play bridge on such
a high level that he only had a few friends
that would play with him. He shot the moon more
than anyone I know. He was wicked good. These stories
were shared with me from time to time. I was
just a little girl. By the way, I still wear
the stocking hat that he knit for me. These wonderful,
treasured memories will proudly be shared by our daughter's only
(12:46):
real men knit. She says, well, I, Patricia, I I'm
all about it. I think being able to knit, any creative,
constructive skill, is to be appreciated, and it gives you
a sense there's something really special about learning things that
are new, that are useful. I love learning new stuff.
(13:08):
One of the best parts about this job is that
whenever I learn something really interesting, there's always this little
little firing of the synapses in my mind that goes, oh,
this is something maybe I can talk about on the
radio sometime. So it's always encouraging encouragement for me to
learn new, cool stuff, so that when I'm on air,
I can even just throw in the mix of a
(13:30):
conversation something that you will find interesting too. But that's
also true about more hard skills crafts, being able to
do stuff, the doing of stuff, and that's I think
something that more and more people are realizing. You get
a real satisfaction from it. Like I said, my probably
(13:51):
my favorite craft is the is cooking. I do like
to cook food, and I will still I will go
to my ends that I make amazing, you know, scrambled
eggs and steaks, and I'm pretty good at that stuff
right The proteins I've got down, but I do wish that. Look,
(14:11):
I'll tell you I've thought about learning. And my family
members would laugh at me right now because they're like, really,
but I think woodworking would be really cool, and not
just because Ron Swanson was so good at it in
parks and recreation and that was his thing. I think
woodworking is really cool. I've played an instrument growing up,
but I never talk about what the instrument is. I
like to keep people in suspense on that one. But
(14:32):
I was pretty good. Would not good good like professional
or even high level amateur good, But I was okay.
I could carry a tune with my instrument. So anyway,
I did not learn how to knit, and I want to,
and I'm probably gonna try to teach myself how to
sew buttons on because I just just the other day
I had to do something on TV and the button
(14:54):
on my cuff came off, and that's you know, I
should learn how to fix this myself. These are skills
that people should have. We've got some calls up here,
Dan in El Paso, Texas, right along the border there, Dan,
what do you got for us?
Speaker 4 (15:08):
Thanks for taking the call. I wanted to remind every
one of the story where In twenty twenty, Democratic Congressman
Adam shift was forced to release over fifty individual transcripts
of testimony that were given in front of the House
Intelligence Committee in twenty seventeen in closed hearings and under oath.
Testimony under oath was given by Ship and other officials
(15:31):
Obama officials that were saying at the time on various
media outleats that there was evidence in playing sight of
collusion of Russia and the campaign and Trump campaign during
the twenty sixteen presidential campaign. Under oath, every one of
these people testified they had no evidence of any such collusion.
(15:53):
Adam Shiff did not want to release these transcripts because
and so into doing so, they proved Adam Shift and
others in the Obama administration was liars. The people that
were involved, didn't. That testimony under oath included Adam Shiff,
James Clapper, Andrew McCabe, Ben Rhodes, Samantha Power, and Susan Rice.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
Yeah, they were Look, you're you're right. I mean, I
remember that Shift was testifying by this behind closed doors,
and when it came to the possibility of perjury, he
had to speak the truth because he's a he's a
shifty lawyer, that Shift. Thank you for calling in, appreciate it,
and uh, yeah, I think I think that more and
(16:41):
more people than ever before have woken up to the
reality of what the Democrat media is willing to do.
Speaker 6 (16:48):
One truth revealed after another, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
We have with us the Kentucky Attorney General, Daniel Cameron,
and he just well he'll tell us a bit about it.
Just won his primary battle, mister Attorney General. Thank you
for calling in.
Speaker 6 (17:14):
Yeah, thank you all for having me and obviously honored
to be the Republican nominee for governor here in Kentucky.
And again it's a delight to be on with you
all and to talk to your listeners.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
So can we start with this one service, Attorney General.
I know you're you're now officially the gonna be the
guy squaring off against Basher the governor, the Democrat governor
of your home state. For non Kentuckians, it's something of
a shock to hear that such a red state has
a blue governor. You know, a Democrat governor who was
(17:50):
particularly awful on COVID and and really went along with
the Fauci machine. And I'm sure there's a whole bunch
of other things you could tell us about too. So
it's not like he's' super moderate centrist, right, So what
has to happen here for you to win because all
the rest of us in the other states are hope
in Kentucky can finally get flipped red.
Speaker 6 (18:11):
Well, yeah, no, you're exactly right. Look, this governor shut
down schools for nearly two years and we've got learning
loss because of it. He has a commissioner at the
Department of Education here in Kentucky that told teachers if
they didn't buy into the gender ideology curriculum making its
way into our schools, that they should find another job.
(18:32):
He shut down churches, he shut down small businesses. He's
been inept when it's come to cleaning up debris in
eastern Kentucky where we had some pretty significant flooding. So
there are a whole host of things, including violent crime
that is skyrocketed over these last three years since he's
been in office. Workforce participation rate is low. We have
(18:54):
twenty seven thousand fewer jobs here in Kentucky since he
was sworn in. So there are a lot of things
that we are going to make sure that Kentuckians are
reminded of daily in this general election campaign. And of
course I was fortunate to win the primary with nearly
forty eight percent of the vote, and that was with
twelve people in the race. So we feel like we
(19:14):
are already on the road to uniting the party behind
this candidacy, and we are ready to turn Kentucky red
make sure that we have a conservative governor come the
end of this year, because it's so critical. Again, the
difference between Kentucky and Florida and South Dakota in a
(19:36):
whole host of states was the fact that we had
a Democrat governor who saw things more like Fauci and
saw things more like Newsoven California than he did the
other conservative southern governors in this country. So I'm again
hopeful that and confident that we will win in November
(19:58):
and turn the state around.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
We got the monster audience all over the state of Kentucky,
as you know, mister Attorney General and hopefully soon Governor
Daniel Cameron where is and the race is clearly one statewide, right.
We know that you need people coming out to support
you all over the place. But as you look at
the math and you kind of break down. But sheher
won a close race four years ago. I agree with you.
(20:21):
He was a disaster on COVID. I lived just down
the I sixty five from you in Nashville, and the
difference between Tennessee and Kentucky was seismic based on having
a Republican governor versus a Democrat governor. I saw the
difference in the treatment of the two states. Where do
you need to really win big to get back at Bashir?
What does the math look like and how do you
(20:42):
put together that coalition to take back the state of Kentucky.
Speaker 6 (20:45):
Yeah, Clay, that's a great question. Look what happened in
nineteen is that our former governor actually lost some counties
that you know. When I ran for Attorney General in
nineteen I was on that state wide ticket and I
won counties that are former governor did not win. So
Governor Bevin lost Warren County, he lost Madison County, he
(21:08):
lost Scott County, lost a couple of northern Kentucky counties
that the rest of the Republicans on the statewide ticket
did not lose. And so we're going to focus on those.
But honestly, this isn't one hundred and twenty county race.
And what I mean by that is there are a
lot of folks that in national races here in Kentucky
vote for the Republican because they cannot stand the disastrous
(21:32):
policies of the far left Democrats and the Biden administration.
And we need to make sure that people understand that
if you don't like those policies, you certainly don't like
a governor. And you all focused on this. Don't like
a governor who detoed legislation that would have protected women's
sports from biological males. You shouldn't like a governor who
(21:56):
has a commissioner at the Kentucky Department of Education who
again says gender ideology curriculum should come before are hardworking
teachers that might have reservations about that curriculum. And you
certainly shouldn't want a governor and certainly shouldn't like a
governor who has sat idly by while the violent crime
(22:16):
has risen exponentially in our largest cities. Again, this is
a governor who oftentimes will claim things that he shouldn't
take credit for. It's sometimes like someone who was born
on third base but thinks they hit a triple. That
is Andy Basheer. He takes credit for things that are
not his, that are not his to take credit for.
(22:38):
And he's been disastrous on so many policies that, again
are inconsistent with the values of the men, women, and
children of one hundred and twenty counties.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
We're speaking to Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron, who is
also the Republican nominee for the governor's race. But I
want to speak to you in your attorney general capacity
for a second here if i can, Org Cameron tell
me about this lawsuit. Nineteen GOP attorneys general have signed it,
(23:08):
accusing JP Morgan of religious bias in the way that
it's doing its banking business. Debanking of people for ideological
reasons is something everyone on the right needs to be
far more aware of and concerned about. In my opinion,
I know businesses that have had their accounts effectively handed
back them and said sorry, we're not going to do
business with you anymore for engaging and totally going to
(23:30):
whether it's firearms or totally legitimate business transactions. What's this
lawsuit about, what are you hoping to accomplish with it?
And what do people need to know?
Speaker 6 (23:38):
Well, look, this is just as you said. I mean,
we want to make sure that if you are a
religiously affiliated organization or christ centered or faith focused or
faith centered organization, that you have the exact same opportunity
in the marketplace of ideas and the exact same opportunit
(24:00):
unity to be able to trade within the market and
do business with banks and be able to use their
platforms to have folks invest in you. And what JP
Morgan and others have done is essentially said that we,
because of your belief set, don't want to have anything
to do with you, and that's just that's not right.
(24:20):
And so myself and other attorneys general across this country
are pushing back, our fighting back against these companies that
are trying essentially to block or marginalize organizations and communities
of faith. And as an attorney general and someone who
(24:41):
is in a position to preserve the constitutional rights of
our citizens and to make sure that they have an
opportunity to speak freely and to have their voice heard,
I can think of no bigger and better responsibility for
us or issue to engage on. And so again we
see this a lot across this country. Unfortunately, that big
(25:03):
business oftentimes tries to squelch the voice of folks that
might have a relationship with Christ or might have a
viewpoint that perhaps doesn't fit with the ideology of that business.
That those folks should not be stymied or stopped from
(25:24):
being able to articulate their views, and organizations or faith
centered organizations should not be able or should not be
stopped from being engaged in the marketplace to ideas.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
I want to give a couple of things for background,
for people who may not know, you won almost fifty
eight percent of the vote in your race in twenty nineteen.
That was the race actually that Bashir won, So a
lot of people voted for you who also voted for
Basher just based on that sheer math right for you
to have won comfortably while the Republican nominee loss. You also,
(25:57):
you know, I'm a big college football guy, and you
played college football at Louisville. I know you got your
undergrad and your JD. There.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
Uh, what role is.
Speaker 2 (26:06):
Louisville versus Kentucky gonna play on the on the campaign trail?
How do you think the Cardinals look? And?
Speaker 4 (26:13):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (26:13):
And and what gives you I mean, for people who
don't know, Kentucky is a sports mad country. Uh, in
a sports mad state, I would think that that really
connects well with people outside of clearly your legal background
and your role as Attorney General.
Speaker 6 (26:29):
Well, Clay, look, you know, I for folks that know me,
they'll know that play is a very generous term. For
my time at u of L. I spent a lot
of time on the bench rooting for other folks that
were a lot more talent than I was. But it
was it was a good experience. And look, you know,
obviously I think U of L has a great opportunity.
They brought Jeff braun bron Back, who when I was
(26:51):
at U of L, he was the quarterbacks coach and
Brian Brown was a quarterback and so a lot of
those folks are coming back to the program. So there's
a lot of great energy there and we'll see how
that all plays out in this season. But you know, look,
as I go across Kentucky, folks have their allegiances and
(27:11):
they like U of L Sports or they like UK sports.
But what I want everybody to be unified on is
beating Andy Vasheer in the fall. Because again, if we
want strong leadership that is going to reflect the values
of our state but also push back against the craziness
that is coming out of Washington, Washington and the Biden administration,
(27:32):
we need a Republican we need a conservative governor, and
that is what I'm hoping bring to the table. And
I'm hoping at the end of this effort in November,
Kentucky is going to be right alongside Tennessee and Alabama
and Arkansas and Florida and Georgia and all of these
states that are led by strong conservative governors. I hope
(27:55):
we're going to be able to say that about Kentucky
as well.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
You may not have seen the field a lot soon
to be going of Kentucky Daniel Cameron. But I'm teaching
Buck about rivalries in sports, in particular for someone who
has never been to Kentucky, who hasn't been in the
Bluegrass State. What is Louisville versus Kentucky like? Give Buck
a preview of what that experience would be like if
he were there for a game between the two.
Speaker 6 (28:18):
Oh, it's rackus. I mean, whether it's football or basketball.
I mean, you know this is uh you know, these
the days where those when those games are played, that
is the focus and intention of attention of the entire state.
And so yeah, they're they're big deals man.
Speaker 1 (28:35):
And uh, well, I'm kind of saying, mister Jorney General,
whoever has more listeners to this show, that is the
fan base that I have to attach myself to. So
we have to figure that out.
Speaker 6 (28:45):
First, understood, Buck, understood. Man, Well, look, I encourage you man.
Hopefully when i'm governor, you know you all will come
in and want to Buck. You want to see for
yourself what you know Clay and I are talking about,
because it's it's a pretty amazing atmosphere for sure.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
I want to get a good to me and congrats
again on your win this week, sir.
Speaker 6 (29:06):
Hey, thank you guys. I appreciate you all so much
and thank your listeners as well.
Speaker 2 (29:09):
For sure, that is I believe the next governor of
this great state of Kentucky, Daniel Cameron. Encourage everybody out there.
There's not a lot of races that are going to
be taking place this November. This is one where Democrats
can get blowback finally for their awful decisions on COVID.
I know there's people listening to us all over the Bluegrass.
Like I said, my family is from Ulenburg County, Kentucky,
so I know there are a lot of people out
(29:30):
there in Kentucky who are fired up to support Daniel Cameron.
Come this November. More fun and conversation coming up from
Clay Travis and Buck Sexton. Welcome back in Clay Travis
buck Sexton Show. Encourage all of you to go subscribe
(29:50):
to the podcast. You won't miss a moment, including the
top of the second hour our interview with Florida Governor
Ron DeSantis. Appreciate him coming on the show as all
you can go subscribe. You can fight back against probably
what we're dealing with on the podcast, which is censorship
because we're spreading misinformation even though everything we tell you
(30:11):
basically has ended up being correct about COVID. But I
know Buck is a married man now, not only because
I see him and I can see the wedding ring
on all the time, which is good, but also because
he now comes in sometimes before shows and says, hey,
did you see the latest about Prince Harry and Megan Markle.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
Oh oh, foul play.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
For years on this show that everything surrounding the royal
family was not worthy of discussion, Now we get look,
I saw the numbers on approval ratings for Megan Markele
and for Prince Harry in the United States. They have
(31:00):
collapsed on a level that's hard to even comprehend by
and large, and they keep screaming, and we had some
fun with this. South Park did an amazing job of it.
They keep saying, well, we wanted to move to the
United States so we could live as normal people. And
then they do a documentary series on Netflix. Harry releases
a book which basically tells every story that's ever occurred
(31:22):
in his entire life. You end up with Megan Markle
has a podcast. I think maybe they had a podcast duo,
and now that which is not something in general that
I would say, people who just want to be living
as normal humans in America would all do. And now
Prince Harry, I thought this was sad. You can't even
figure out what's satire anymore. Prince Harry is putting for
(31:46):
forty nine nine on pay per view.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
This is real, right?
Speaker 2 (31:51):
I mean I think I thought it was like a
Babylon B headline. I was like, there's no way this
is real. He's going to forty nine to ninety nine.
You're gonna be able to pay to watch him have
a therapy session dealing with some of the difficulties in
his life.
Speaker 1 (32:08):
It's a heck of a way to do marital counseling,
that's for sure. Fifty bucks to watch this guy talk
about how hard his light has has been. Look, it's
it's kind of amazing to see this continue to play
out as it is. I also now I cannot see
Harry and Meghan and not think about way what privacy,
(32:32):
Way what privacy from the south Park episode, which was amazing.
If those of you haven't seen it, just imagine in
the south Park cartoons, Harry and Meghan going around with
placards that scream we want privacy and then going on
TV shows to tell everybody how much privacy they want,
and then playing drums in their front yard shouting we
(32:54):
want privacy while banging the drums. It was, I mean,
it was the most perfect send up I can think
of from South Park. I mean, and they obviously were
upset by because it really stung. But you're watching malignant
narcissism play out in real time. I mean, you're watching
people who have been so consumed with themselves that nothing
(33:14):
else can penetrate. That's where we are. So it is
kind of fascinating as a psychological study.
Speaker 2 (33:19):
Yeah, and it's also unfortunate because Harry on some level
had to be a relative. You tell me, But I
mean he served in Iraq, right, and I understand, Aghanistan, Afghanistan.
Maybe it was okay, And I understand maybe it's you're
still second in line to be the next king, right.
So maybe he's cloistered in some ways in the military service,
(33:41):
different than an average guy would be in his position,
But you would think that he would be capable of
some form of normalcy. And it feels to me as
if every decision that he and Megan Markle make is
being made with the desire to make people hate them
more
You're listening to the best of Clay Travis and Buck Sexton.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Welcome back in Clay Travis Buck Sexton Show. Appreciate all
of you hanging out with us. We're going to get
to some of your calls, by the way, before we
finish the second hour here scheduled to be joined by
Daniel Cameron, the Attorney General of Kentucky, who is now
the nominee for the Republican Party to take on Governor Basher,
the Democrat governor in the state of Kentucky. We'll discuss
(00:25):
that upcoming campaign with him November. Obviously, not a ton
of elections that are going on, the Kentucky Governor's race
will be one of those that stands out as a
very significant arbiter on what we may be expecting going forward.
But Buck, I wanted to play some of this for you.
Obviously you've got a CIA background, but the FBI, in particular,
(00:46):
I guess the CIA two over the fifty one intelligence
agents who signed, but in particular the FBI, in the
wake of the Durham Report has been under siege and
Jim Jordan wanted everybody out there who was testifying to
know that you will be targeted Democrats are going to
come after you if you decide to speak out and
(01:06):
tell the truth. Let's listen to cutting one our friend,
Democrat Congressman from Ohio, Jim Jordan, laying it out.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
Three of those brave whistle blowers and a lawyer who
represents them will tell us their story. They will tell
us what happened, what they saw, and then what happened
to them because they were courageous enough to report it
to Congress.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
I just want to.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
Tell you, guys, get ready, get ready, because these guys
are going to come after you. You know they are.
Last yearing we had we had two journalists Democrats, two
Democrat journalists set right where you guys did, and these
guys tried to get them to divulge their sources. Someone
needs to tell them how the First Amendment works. And
while mister Tayabi, one of those award winning journalists setting
(01:48):
right where you're setting, was testifying, guess what else was happening,
the irs was knocking on his door. So get ready.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
You have never seen clay bureaucracy move with the speed
and ferocity it does as when there's someone from the
inside who's trying to go to Congress and say something
fouls happening where I work. True with the FBI, it
is true at the CIA, and we have all these
(02:17):
people that well, we tell people that they have whistleblower protections,
but hmmm, not so much, because what ends up happening
is the agencies involved will, sure, you can go testify
before Congress, but they'll remember and six months later or
eighteen months later or whatever, you know, then they decide
(02:38):
they're going to go through your time in attendance reports.
Then they decide, hey, did you have any unauthorized contact
with a journalist at a cocktail party? Then they decide
to polygraph you or look at whether they're gonna pull
your clearance. They act like internally the Stazi of East
Germany when it comes to any threat to the federal
bureaucrats purview. And you have to all to understand that
(03:01):
the Democrat donations from these places show you what's happened.
They are not entirely but largely now party organs, and
that's reflected in what we saw with Komee and McCabe
and all these guys who went after Trump. So I'm
hopeful that this information will get out there about the
(03:21):
whistleblowers and will at least get it on the record.
But I think it goes to show you that anyone
who thinks that these places can wash their own laundry
doesn't know how they actually function and also how corrupted
they've become internally, not just as a function of leadership,
but as a function of culture. And I know this
from people who have recently left CIA who talked to
(03:42):
me about this. I know people still inside who tell
me what's going on. And same thing with the FBI,
and not as plugged in there, but similar stories. I
know some FBI agents, So I think that people should
know this. But it's a long term problem we're trying
to fix here, and you need someone, as I was saying,
what was it yesterday, you need somebody who understands how
(04:04):
these places function in order to clean them up. Because
we can't even abolish the TSA. We're going to abolish
the FBI. And it's nice, it's a nice SoundBite. I'm
with it, but you know, fool me once can't get
fooled again. I remember when people were telling me they're
going to bolish the IRS a few years ago. That
didn't happen.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Yeah, And also I think we had a great call.
If you remember from a twenty seven year FBI veteran
down in Florida earlier this week, it's important to note
that you can and he said, ninety percent of FBI
agents are good dudes and gals just trying to catch
bad guys. But at the top of the FBI, I
don't think there's any doubt at all that the head
(04:43):
of the FBI is rotten and has become a very
political based organization. And let's listen to this. By the way,
Garrett O'Boyle, he says, bad guys are running parts of
the government. This is an FBI whistleblower. This is what
he testified to listen to.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
Cut to starting to defend this country from enemies, both
foreign and domestic, even if that means sacrificing my life.
My oath, however, did not include sacrificing the hopes, dreams,
and livelihood of my family. In weaponized fashion, the FBI
allowed me to accept orders to a new position halfway
across the country. They allowed us to sell my family's home.
They ordered me to report to the new unit when
our youngest daughter was two weeks old. Then on my
(05:19):
first day on the new assignment. They suspended me, rendering
my family homeless. They refused to release our goods, including
our clothes, for weeks. All I wanted to do was
serve my country by stopping bad guys and protecting the innocent.
To my chagrin, bad guys have begun running parts of
the government, making it difficult to continue to serve this
(05:39):
nation and protect the innocent.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
This is where we are, Buck, and I mean, that's
difficult to hear that testimony. But I hope that we've
been talking, and we'll take some of these calls to
close out the hour. We've been talking Buck a great
deal about the Republican primary. I hope that the Republican
candidates who want to be the nominee in twenty twenty four,
(06:02):
we'll discuss what they will do to fix our FBI,
to fix frankly, our military. The leadership of the military,
the FBI, and the CIA has got to change in
order for the culture to truly be adjusted.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
It's about leadership, culture, mission, and honestly, also having a
really clear framework of what's acceptable and unacceptable behavior, and
that goes to all those other issues as well. I
think it's worth everybody being reminded of the fact that
this isn't even some of these whistleblowers. You just heard
(06:37):
that guy, and I'm here in this I'm going, yep,
that's what they do. You know they do in the NYPD,
and I know we got a lot of current and
former NYPD listen to the show. If they if you
get on the wrong side of your superiors, they give
you something called the highway therapy. Highway therapy is when
they figure out where you live and the precinct that
is the absolute furthest from that and assign you to
(06:59):
that precinct. That means now instead of your commute maybe
being twenty minutes or thirty minutes of the morning, I mean,
if you get sent out to far rockaway and you
live in you know, the North Bronx, you're timmitting about
an hour and a half to get to work every day.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
Right.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
So there's a whole range of ways that they punish people.
On the whistleblowers that we're talking about here, some of
them this wasn't about Trump. I want everyone to understand
that this wasn't about Trump necessarily. Some of it was.
But in some cases these whistleblowers came forward because the
Biden DOJ was targeting parents who were concerned at school
(07:35):
board meetings and treating them in memos as though they
are a domestic terrorism threat. Oh, you showed up to
school because you know, little Bobby and little Sarah were
being masked up in the first grade after having their
school shut down for eighteen months. Maybe you're a domestic terrorist.
That's what Merrick Garland and his goons think of you.
(07:57):
So I think everyone has to understand that this isn't
even This is way beyond just even the weaponization against Trump,
which has also been a very real thing.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Yeah, and we talked about this too. When you send
the message that domestic extremism and white supremacy are the
biggest threats to our country, then you're gonna get all
of these people who want to elevate their job. They're
gonna go find those criminals. And the sad thing is
(08:26):
you can find just about every single one of you
out there listening to us right now. If a dragnet
was put on your life, they could find something that
you have done in your time, maybe a tax return,
Maybe it's something that was involved in some sort of
business that you were associated with. If you get the
(08:47):
full car wash treatment from a federal agency and investigation.
Fuck you know this, they can find you having violated
some law. Almost every single one of us out there
would not be completely clean if they put you through
the car wash and tried to decide whether or not
to throw the book at you. And that's the message
that they're sending to all these individuals out there.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
You can handle the truth.
Speaker 6 (09:12):
More.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
Clay Travis and Buck Sexton coming up, so go to
remind you to please check out the Clay Travis and
Buck Sexton Show podcast feed. It's this show which if
you miss any part of you want to listen on demand,
you can check out the podcast. It's put up hour
(09:33):
by hour. There's the Sunday Hang, which is non political,
fun topics that Clay and I will touch on during
the week, all pulled together for you in one place.
There's The Buck Sexton Show, where I do deep dive
interviews with phenomenal guests, people that just are really interesting
and have insights of all kinds. Our friend Tutor Dixon
is in the podcast stream as well, so you get
(09:54):
all this cool stuff when you subscribe. It's all free download.
The iHeart app also free and dcribe the Clan Buck
Show or wherever you get your podcasts. Also, I want
to give a little shout out here. I appeared on
the Sean Ryan Show, which I think many of you,
especially former law enforcement, former military, tend to be very
(10:15):
big Sean Ryan listeners. I was on the Sean Ryan
Program and the episode just got released today. I think
it's three and a half hours long, and so we
talk about all kinds of stuff ranging from the COMMI
propaganda machine to what I saw in the CIA that
(10:36):
was the beginning of me wanting to leave, to the
cover up with Epstein trans agenda so much. It's three
and a half hours long. So it's the Sean Ryan
Show that I appeared on, and I hope a lot
of you go check it out. Shawn's a great guy.
He's former seal, former former agency contractor, so it was
(10:59):
really a tree to get to sit down with him
and talk for a few hours. So check that one out.
All right, we have some great stuff here coming to
the here we go. This is a vip E. Well,
now I want to admit something to you all. Clay
was trying to be funny. I don't actually I wish
I knew how to knit, but I do not. I
(11:20):
don't even know how to put a button back on
a shirt, a dress shirt, which I honestly want to
learn how to do. Since I married Carrie, I've gotten
better because I don't want her to know that I'm
not great with hammers and nails. I like guns, but
I don't know much about hammers and nails. So I'm
trying to get better at the Home Improvement home depot stuff.
(11:41):
I do cook a lot, though I like to cook,
and I actually enjoy I enjoy cleaning and doing laundry,
So you know, there are just certain things that I like. Cleanliness.
I'll tell you this. I like cleanliness. I also like silence,
which is weird maybe for a radio guy, but I
like quiet. But some of you are writing in about
my ability to knit, and I wish that was just
(12:02):
Clay being Clay and having some fun with me. But
Patricia wrote in, I thought this was really inserting one
of our VIPs. My father was a lieutenant in the
Army Air Corps during World War Two. He spent eighteen
months in a German prison camp. I watched and listened
to my father talk about knitting and unknitting. His socks.
Because he was an officer, he was not allowed to work,
(12:24):
so he learned to knit and play bridge on such
a high level that he only had a few friends
that would play with him. He shot the moon more
than anyone I know. He was wicked good. These stories
were shared with me from time to time. I was
just a little girl. By the way, I still wear
the stocking hat that he knit for me. These wonderful,
treasured memories will proudly be shared by our daughter's only
(12:46):
real men knit. She says, well, I, Patricia, I I'm
all about it. I think being able to knit, any creative,
constructive skill, is to be appreciated, and it gives you
a sense there's something really special about learning things that
are new, that are useful. I love learning new stuff.
(13:08):
One of the best parts about this job is that
whenever I learn something really interesting, there's always this little
little firing of the synapses in my mind that goes, oh,
this is something maybe I can talk about on the
radio sometime. So it's always encouraging encouragement for me to
learn new, cool stuff, so that when I'm on air,
I can even just throw in the mix of a
(13:30):
conversation something that you will find interesting too. But that's
also true about more hard skills crafts, being able to
do stuff, the doing of stuff, and that's I think
something that more and more people are realizing. You get
a real satisfaction from it. Like I said, my probably
(13:51):
my favorite craft is the is cooking. I do like
to cook food, and I will still I will go
to my ends that I make amazing, you know, scrambled
eggs and steaks, and I'm pretty good at that stuff
right The proteins I've got down, but I do wish that. Look,
(14:11):
I'll tell you I've thought about learning. And my family
members would laugh at me right now because they're like, really,
but I think woodworking would be really cool, and not
just because Ron Swanson was so good at it in
parks and recreation and that was his thing. I think
woodworking is really cool. I've played an instrument growing up,
but I never talk about what the instrument is. I
like to keep people in suspense on that one. But
(14:32):
I was pretty good. Would not good good like professional
or even high level amateur good, But I was okay.
I could carry a tune with my instrument. So anyway,
I did not learn how to knit, and I want to,
and I'm probably gonna try to teach myself how to
sew buttons on because I just just the other day
I had to do something on TV and the button
(14:54):
on my cuff came off, and that's you know, I
should learn how to fix this myself. These are skills
that people should have. We've got some calls up here,
Dan in El Paso, Texas, right along the border there, Dan,
what do you got for us?
Speaker 4 (15:08):
Thanks for taking the call. I wanted to remind every
one of the story where In twenty twenty, Democratic Congressman
Adam shift was forced to release over fifty individual transcripts
of testimony that were given in front of the House
Intelligence Committee in twenty seventeen in closed hearings and under oath.
Testimony under oath was given by Ship and other officials
(15:31):
Obama officials that were saying at the time on various
media outleats that there was evidence in playing sight of
collusion of Russia and the campaign and Trump campaign during
the twenty sixteen presidential campaign. Under oath, every one of
these people testified they had no evidence of any such collusion.
(15:53):
Adam Shiff did not want to release these transcripts because
and so into doing so, they proved Adam Shift and
others in the Obama administration was liars. The people that
were involved, didn't. That testimony under oath included Adam Shiff,
James Clapper, Andrew McCabe, Ben Rhodes, Samantha Power, and Susan Rice.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
Yeah, they were Look, you're you're right. I mean, I
remember that Shift was testifying by this behind closed doors,
and when it came to the possibility of perjury, he
had to speak the truth because he's a he's a
shifty lawyer, that Shift. Thank you for calling in, appreciate it,
and uh, yeah, I think I think that more and
(16:41):
more people than ever before have woken up to the
reality of what the Democrat media is willing to do.
Speaker 6 (16:48):
One truth revealed after another, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
We have with us the Kentucky Attorney General, Daniel Cameron,
and he just well he'll tell us a bit about it.
Just won his primary battle, mister Attorney General. Thank you
for calling in.
Speaker 6 (17:14):
Yeah, thank you all for having me and obviously honored
to be the Republican nominee for governor here in Kentucky.
And again it's a delight to be on with you
all and to talk to your listeners.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
So can we start with this one service, Attorney General.
I know you're you're now officially the gonna be the
guy squaring off against Basher the governor, the Democrat governor
of your home state. For non Kentuckians, it's something of
a shock to hear that such a red state has
a blue governor. You know, a Democrat governor who was
(17:50):
particularly awful on COVID and and really went along with
the Fauci machine. And I'm sure there's a whole bunch
of other things you could tell us about too. So
it's not like he's' super moderate centrist, right, So what
has to happen here for you to win because all
the rest of us in the other states are hope
in Kentucky can finally get flipped red.
Speaker 6 (18:11):
Well, yeah, no, you're exactly right. Look, this governor shut
down schools for nearly two years and we've got learning
loss because of it. He has a commissioner at the
Department of Education here in Kentucky that told teachers if
they didn't buy into the gender ideology curriculum making its
way into our schools, that they should find another job.
(18:32):
He shut down churches, he shut down small businesses. He's
been inept when it's come to cleaning up debris in
eastern Kentucky where we had some pretty significant flooding. So
there are a whole host of things, including violent crime
that is skyrocketed over these last three years since he's
been in office. Workforce participation rate is low. We have
(18:54):
twenty seven thousand fewer jobs here in Kentucky since he
was sworn in. So there are a lot of things
that we are going to make sure that Kentuckians are
reminded of daily in this general election campaign. And of
course I was fortunate to win the primary with nearly
forty eight percent of the vote, and that was with
twelve people in the race. So we feel like we
(19:14):
are already on the road to uniting the party behind
this candidacy, and we are ready to turn Kentucky red
make sure that we have a conservative governor come the
end of this year, because it's so critical. Again, the
difference between Kentucky and Florida and South Dakota in a
(19:36):
whole host of states was the fact that we had
a Democrat governor who saw things more like Fauci and
saw things more like Newsoven California than he did the
other conservative southern governors in this country. So I'm again
hopeful that and confident that we will win in November
(19:58):
and turn the state around.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
We got the monster audience all over the state of Kentucky,
as you know, mister Attorney General and hopefully soon Governor
Daniel Cameron where is and the race is clearly one statewide, right.
We know that you need people coming out to support
you all over the place. But as you look at
the math and you kind of break down. But sheher
won a close race four years ago. I agree with you.
(20:21):
He was a disaster on COVID. I lived just down
the I sixty five from you in Nashville, and the
difference between Tennessee and Kentucky was seismic based on having
a Republican governor versus a Democrat governor. I saw the
difference in the treatment of the two states. Where do
you need to really win big to get back at Bashir?
What does the math look like and how do you
(20:42):
put together that coalition to take back the state of Kentucky.
Speaker 6 (20:45):
Yeah, Clay, that's a great question. Look what happened in
nineteen is that our former governor actually lost some counties
that you know. When I ran for Attorney General in
nineteen I was on that state wide ticket and I
won counties that are former governor did not win. So
Governor Bevin lost Warren County, he lost Madison County, he
(21:08):
lost Scott County, lost a couple of northern Kentucky counties
that the rest of the Republicans on the statewide ticket
did not lose. And so we're going to focus on those.
But honestly, this isn't one hundred and twenty county race.
And what I mean by that is there are a
lot of folks that in national races here in Kentucky
vote for the Republican because they cannot stand the disastrous
(21:32):
policies of the far left Democrats and the Biden administration.
And we need to make sure that people understand that
if you don't like those policies, you certainly don't like
a governor. And you all focused on this. Don't like
a governor who detoed legislation that would have protected women's
sports from biological males. You shouldn't like a governor who
(21:56):
has a commissioner at the Kentucky Department of Education who
again says gender ideology curriculum should come before are hardworking
teachers that might have reservations about that curriculum. And you
certainly shouldn't want a governor and certainly shouldn't like a
governor who has sat idly by while the violent crime
(22:16):
has risen exponentially in our largest cities. Again, this is
a governor who oftentimes will claim things that he shouldn't
take credit for. It's sometimes like someone who was born
on third base but thinks they hit a triple. That
is Andy Basheer. He takes credit for things that are
not his, that are not his to take credit for.
(22:38):
And he's been disastrous on so many policies that, again
are inconsistent with the values of the men, women, and
children of one hundred and twenty counties.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
We're speaking to Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron, who is
also the Republican nominee for the governor's race. But I
want to speak to you in your attorney general capacity
for a second here if i can, Org Cameron tell
me about this lawsuit. Nineteen GOP attorneys general have signed it,
(23:08):
accusing JP Morgan of religious bias in the way that
it's doing its banking business. Debanking of people for ideological
reasons is something everyone on the right needs to be
far more aware of and concerned about. In my opinion,
I know businesses that have had their accounts effectively handed
back them and said sorry, we're not going to do
business with you anymore for engaging and totally going to
(23:30):
whether it's firearms or totally legitimate business transactions. What's this
lawsuit about, what are you hoping to accomplish with it?
And what do people need to know?
Speaker 6 (23:38):
Well, look, this is just as you said. I mean,
we want to make sure that if you are a
religiously affiliated organization or christ centered or faith focused or
faith centered organization, that you have the exact same opportunity
in the marketplace of ideas and the exact same opportunit
(24:00):
unity to be able to trade within the market and
do business with banks and be able to use their
platforms to have folks invest in you. And what JP
Morgan and others have done is essentially said that we,
because of your belief set, don't want to have anything
to do with you, and that's just that's not right.
(24:20):
And so myself and other attorneys general across this country
are pushing back, our fighting back against these companies that
are trying essentially to block or marginalize organizations and communities
of faith. And as an attorney general and someone who
(24:41):
is in a position to preserve the constitutional rights of
our citizens and to make sure that they have an
opportunity to speak freely and to have their voice heard,
I can think of no bigger and better responsibility for
us or issue to engage on. And so again we
see this a lot across this country. Unfortunately, that big
(25:03):
business oftentimes tries to squelch the voice of folks that
might have a relationship with Christ or might have a
viewpoint that perhaps doesn't fit with the ideology of that business.
That those folks should not be stymied or stopped from
(25:24):
being able to articulate their views, and organizations or faith
centered organizations should not be able or should not be
stopped from being engaged in the marketplace to ideas.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
I want to give a couple of things for background,
for people who may not know, you won almost fifty
eight percent of the vote in your race in twenty nineteen.
That was the race actually that Bashir won, So a
lot of people voted for you who also voted for
Basher just based on that sheer math right for you
to have won comfortably while the Republican nominee loss. You also,
(25:57):
you know, I'm a big college football guy, and you
played college football at Louisville. I know you got your
undergrad and your JD. There.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
Uh, what role is.
Speaker 2 (26:06):
Louisville versus Kentucky gonna play on the on the campaign trail?
How do you think the Cardinals look? And?
Speaker 4 (26:13):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (26:13):
And and what gives you I mean, for people who
don't know, Kentucky is a sports mad country. Uh, in
a sports mad state, I would think that that really
connects well with people outside of clearly your legal background
and your role as Attorney General.
Speaker 6 (26:29):
Well, Clay, look, you know, I for folks that know me,
they'll know that play is a very generous term. For
my time at u of L. I spent a lot
of time on the bench rooting for other folks that
were a lot more talent than I was. But it
was it was a good experience. And look, you know,
obviously I think U of L has a great opportunity.
They brought Jeff braun bron Back, who when I was
(26:51):
at U of L, he was the quarterbacks coach and
Brian Brown was a quarterback and so a lot of
those folks are coming back to the program. So there's
a lot of great energy there and we'll see how
that all plays out in this season. But you know, look,
as I go across Kentucky, folks have their allegiances and
(27:11):
they like U of L Sports or they like UK sports.
But what I want everybody to be unified on is
beating Andy Vasheer in the fall. Because again, if we
want strong leadership that is going to reflect the values
of our state but also push back against the craziness
that is coming out of Washington, Washington and the Biden administration,
(27:32):
we need a Republican we need a conservative governor, and
that is what I'm hoping bring to the table. And
I'm hoping at the end of this effort in November,
Kentucky is going to be right alongside Tennessee and Alabama
and Arkansas and Florida and Georgia and all of these
states that are led by strong conservative governors. I hope
(27:55):
we're going to be able to say that about Kentucky
as well.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
You may not have seen the field a lot soon
to be going of Kentucky Daniel Cameron. But I'm teaching
Buck about rivalries in sports, in particular for someone who
has never been to Kentucky, who hasn't been in the
Bluegrass State. What is Louisville versus Kentucky like? Give Buck
a preview of what that experience would be like if
he were there for a game between the two.
Speaker 6 (28:18):
Oh, it's rackus. I mean, whether it's football or basketball.
I mean, you know this is uh you know, these
the days where those when those games are played, that
is the focus and intention of attention of the entire state.
And so yeah, they're they're big deals man.
Speaker 1 (28:35):
And uh, well, I'm kind of saying, mister Jorney General,
whoever has more listeners to this show, that is the
fan base that I have to attach myself to. So
we have to figure that out.
Speaker 6 (28:45):
First, understood, Buck, understood. Man, Well, look, I encourage you man.
Hopefully when i'm governor, you know you all will come
in and want to Buck. You want to see for
yourself what you know Clay and I are talking about,
because it's it's a pretty amazing atmosphere for sure.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
I want to get a good to me and congrats
again on your win this week, sir.
Speaker 6 (29:06):
Hey, thank you guys. I appreciate you all so much
and thank your listeners as well.
Speaker 2 (29:09):
For sure, that is I believe the next governor of
this great state of Kentucky, Daniel Cameron. Encourage everybody out there.
There's not a lot of races that are going to
be taking place this November. This is one where Democrats
can get blowback finally for their awful decisions on COVID.
I know there's people listening to us all over the Bluegrass.
Like I said, my family is from Ulenburg County, Kentucky,
so I know there are a lot of people out
(29:30):
there in Kentucky who are fired up to support Daniel Cameron.
Come this November. More fun and conversation coming up from
Clay Travis and Buck Sexton. Welcome back in Clay Travis
buck Sexton Show. Encourage all of you to go subscribe
(29:50):
to the podcast. You won't miss a moment, including the
top of the second hour our interview with Florida Governor
Ron DeSantis. Appreciate him coming on the show as all
you can go subscribe. You can fight back against probably
what we're dealing with on the podcast, which is censorship
because we're spreading misinformation even though everything we tell you
(30:11):
basically has ended up being correct about COVID. But I
know Buck is a married man now, not only because
I see him and I can see the wedding ring
on all the time, which is good, but also because
he now comes in sometimes before shows and says, hey,
did you see the latest about Prince Harry and Megan Markle.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
Oh oh, foul play.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
For years on this show that everything surrounding the royal
family was not worthy of discussion, Now we get look,
I saw the numbers on approval ratings for Megan Markele
and for Prince Harry in the United States. They have
(31:00):
collapsed on a level that's hard to even comprehend by
and large, and they keep screaming, and we had some
fun with this. South Park did an amazing job of it.
They keep saying, well, we wanted to move to the
United States so we could live as normal people. And
then they do a documentary series on Netflix. Harry releases
a book which basically tells every story that's ever occurred
(31:22):
in his entire life. You end up with Megan Markle
has a podcast. I think maybe they had a podcast duo,
and now that which is not something in general that
I would say, people who just want to be living
as normal humans in America would all do. And now
Prince Harry, I thought this was sad. You can't even
figure out what's satire anymore. Prince Harry is putting for
(31:46):
forty nine nine on pay per view.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
This is real, right?
Speaker 2 (31:51):
I mean I think I thought it was like a
Babylon B headline. I was like, there's no way this
is real. He's going to forty nine to ninety nine.
You're gonna be able to pay to watch him have
a therapy session dealing with some of the difficulties in
his life.
Speaker 1 (32:08):
It's a heck of a way to do marital counseling,
that's for sure. Fifty bucks to watch this guy talk
about how hard his light has has been. Look, it's
it's kind of amazing to see this continue to play
out as it is. I also now I cannot see
Harry and Meghan and not think about way what privacy,
(32:32):
Way what privacy from the south Park episode, which was amazing.
If those of you haven't seen it, just imagine in
the south Park cartoons, Harry and Meghan going around with
placards that scream we want privacy and then going on
TV shows to tell everybody how much privacy they want,
and then playing drums in their front yard shouting we
(32:54):
want privacy while banging the drums. It was, I mean,
it was the most perfect send up I can think
of from South Park. I mean, and they obviously were
upset by because it really stung. But you're watching malignant
narcissism play out in real time. I mean, you're watching
people who have been so consumed with themselves that nothing
(33:14):
else can penetrate. That's where we are. So it is
kind of fascinating as a psychological study.
Speaker 2 (33:19):
Yeah, and it's also unfortunate because Harry on some level
had to be a relative. You tell me, But I
mean he served in Iraq, right, and I understand, Aghanistan, Afghanistan.
Maybe it was okay, And I understand maybe it's you're
still second in line to be the next king, right.
So maybe he's cloistered in some ways in the military service,
(33:41):
different than an average guy would be in his position,
But you would think that he would be capable of
some form of normalcy. And it feels to me as
if every decision that he and Megan Markle make is
being made with the desire to make people hate them
