Hour 1 of today’s Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show kicks off with Buck Sexton hosting solo while Clay attends the high-profile FIFA World Cup draw event in Washington, D.C., where President Donald Trump received the inaugural FIFA Peace Prize. Buck shares live updates from the Kennedy Center, highlighting Trump’s remarks on global peace efforts, U.S. strength, and the historic scale of the upcoming World Cup hosted in North America.
The hour’s lead news story centers on the arrest of the January 6th pipe bomber suspect, Brian Cole Jr., after nearly five years of investigation. Buck scrutinizes the FBI’s handling of the case, questioning why it languished under the Biden administration despite being one of the most serious threats tied to the Capitol riot. He plays clips from CNN’s Jake Tapper, who incorrectly described the suspect as a “white man,” and critiques media narratives that appear politically motivated. Buck also examines comments from former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe and Senator Mark Warner, contrasting their defense of investigative delays with the reality that new leadership under Cash Patel and Dan Bonino solved the case using existing evidence. The discussion underscores concerns about FBI priorities, political bias, and accountability.
Buck further explores reports suggesting the suspect may have been motivated by anger over the 2020 election, while emphasizing the gravity of the crime—two live pipe bombs planted near the RNC and DNC headquarters. He argues that the case’s resolution challenges the dominant narrative of January 6th and raises questions about selective enforcement during the Biden era.
In addition to breaking news, Buck previews upcoming interviews with Oklahoma Senator Markwayne Mullin on Venezuelan narco boat strikes and conservative commentator Isabelle Brown on her fiery CNN appearance. He also dives into the controversy surrounding alleged war crimes in U.S. military strikes against drug cartels, citing Senator Tom Cotton’s classified briefing remarks affirming the legality and necessity of the operations. Buck frames these strikes as part of a broader effort to dismantle cartel networks and restore U.S. military strength under the Trump administration.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome everybody to the Friday edition of the Clay, Travis
and Buck Sexton Show. You will only be hearing my
voice today though, because mister Clay is at the FIFA
thing with Trump and all of the fancy people in DC.
So I am going to be handling the show here.
If Clay wants to, like Texter or calling, at some point,
(00:21):
he will let us know how it's going. I actually
like soccer. I know many of you are laughing at that,
but I like soccer. But I do not know about
a bracket. I'm not going to the bracket thing because
people don't think of me as a sports guy in
that sense. So yeah, that's where that is. So Clay
will be back with us, of course on Monday, and
(00:41):
in the meantime we get a lot of news my friends. Oh,
I've also got some fantastic guests lined up, Senator Mark
Wayne Mullin of Oklahoma. Second Hour. We'll talk to him
about the Narco boats, the blowing up of the Narco boats,
about Venezuela, and some other things that come to mind.
Isabel Brown, conservative commentator. She was on. She's one of
(01:05):
the young guns. You know, she's an up and coming
you'll be seeing more and more of her, very talented
young lady. She was on CNN and dueling with the
CNN communists quite well, quite well, So we'll talk to
her about what that was like. She was on set
with them. So that's always I don't think I ever
told you guys this. I might have, but after I've
(01:25):
been a CNN commentator for a couple of years, and
they this was back in twenty they I couldn't do it.
Once Trump won the election, I was like, I can't
work at CNN anymore because or work for CNN in
any capacity, because I realized they had gone completely insane.
It is hard for anyone to understand now without having
(01:45):
experienced it, how much CNN internally hated Trump after that
first election, and how just they were all crying like constantly,
and I actually mean crying, I don't mean that metal
for there was just sadness all over the building. I
was like, I can't these people out of their minds.
(02:07):
I can't be the conservative that they bring because they
weren't even gonna use anymore. You know, they wouldn't let
me talk because I would smoke all the fools that
they have on TV. But I remember I walked into
the CNN building and Jeff Zucker and I walked in
because a friend of mine had asked me to come
and check out her show on HLN. Believe it or not,
(02:29):
I said, yeah, sure, So I went there and I
bumped into Jeff Zucker, who was the head of CNN,
in the lobby, and he just kind of looked at
me and he's like, what are you doing here? I
was like, oh man, I was like, am I band
Clay is officially banned? I was this close to being
banned because they wanted to keep me around. I said
absolutely not, no interest. I'd rather not have a job
(02:51):
in television than continue to work at CNN. So we'll
talk to Isabelle Brown about that. Oh and then Steve Hilton,
who was running for governor of California, we'll discuss with
him in the third hour of the program. Here's his premise.
You think the fraud in Minneapolis from the Somali community
is bad, just wait till you look under the hood
(03:11):
in California. So we shall have that discussion with him.
He thinks it's worse. Well, it's certainly bigger, I would think,
because it's California. Right, but he'll tell us, he'll make
his case as he does, and then we have CNN
back again here in our sits CNN's Jake Tapper. As
we know, there was an identification made of the pipe
(03:34):
bombing suspect, and there's gonna be a lot of conversation
out who is this guy? What was he doing? Why
did it take four years to four plus years to
find him? What really was the situation? Here? This is
how they reported on it over at CNN. This is
Jake Tapper play club.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
After years of investigation, the FBI finally announced that they
had arrested as a suspect accused of planting type bonds
near the Republican and Democratic National Committee headquarters the night
before the January sixth, twenty twenty one Capitol attack. Brian
Cole Junior, a thirty year old white man from the
DC suburbs, is charts with transporting and explosive device in
(04:17):
interstate commerce and with malicious destruction.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
Hear that you catch that other? He described him as
a thirty year old white man. Now, I know this
is radio, but you could go to clayanbuck dot com.
I'm sure we could put the photo up. There's ever
we could see or you just you know, you go
to any any news headline about this. It's definitely not
a white guy. And I think what he said it
(04:43):
actually there was a photo on the screen too. It's
definitely not a white guy. But this is what was
interesting to me about this, or we're gonna get more
into this. This guy is obviously allone and there's there's
now different stories about you know, who he supported and
what he likes and all this other stuff. As we know,
how much reporting there is on this is going to
(05:03):
be a pure function of how at some networks of
how useful it is or not useful to Democrats. But
the fact that it took as much time as it did,
I think alone indicates that there was a lack of
focus on it because there was at least a concern
(05:24):
that it would not be from the Biden powers that be.
There was a concern that it would not be additive
to the narrative. Here is the former deputy FBI director
and deep State extraordinary individual Andrew McKay. Remember Trump fired
(05:45):
him and he lost his pension. I think then he
got it back and now he's a contributor on TV.
This is the guy who is a real scumbag, very odd.
It's unfortunate when you think back to some of the
people who have had these jobs, because it tarnishes the institution.
It's one thing where you have somebody who's not great
at the job. It's another thing when you have somebody
who's just not a good person, not ant like James Comy,
(06:08):
not an ethical, honest, straight up individual. And that's certainly
the case with Andrew McCabe. And here he is, of
course over at what was this MSNBC or CNN. I
keep saying MSNBC. They had to change the name. It's
ms now because I'm sure NBC no longer wanted to
(06:28):
be affiliated with the lunacy. The NBC News department wanted
to continue their propaganda unburdened by what has been over
at MSNBC. Here is Andrew McCabe, formerly the FBI, at
CNN here play two.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
It's really hard for me to believe Casey that it
was ignored over the last many years. I think Evans
characterized it well. You bring in a new team to
look at the evidence you have in a different way,
to maybe see things that your investigators who've been beating
their heads on this stuff for years haven't seen. But
(07:02):
ultimately what you have here is an incredibly detailed data collection,
and I'm sure a lot of that data was collected
before this new you know, refresh took place. Let's remember
it took the FBI eighteen years to find the unibomber
right after his first bomb in nineteen seventy eight. So
these are tough cases and sometimes take a long time.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Any of you buying that was this guy was on
video in our nation's capital outside the RNC with a
pipe bomb. We had him on video, right. I mean
this is also in an era of ping cell phones,
which they use to get him. It's always that the
people don't realize your cell phone is tracking you everywhere,
(07:47):
whether you know it or not, but they use ping
cell phones and receipts of what he bought. But I
don't buy at all that this was something that they
were trying really hard to figure out and only in
addition to the work already done to this FBI. No,
I think that there was a renewed focus on it,
but I think that the primary focus along regardless by
(08:09):
the way of whatever this guy's ideology. As we look
deeper into it, turns out to be, but it seems
to me very clear that there was a renewed focus
on this case, and so that's why they were able
to bring it to this conclusion of the arrest and
the alleged perpetrator of these attacks is now in custody. Oh,
(08:31):
we got Senator Mark Warner here. This is also interesting,
Senator Mark Warner saying that the DOJ is picking and
choosing facts. Listen to this play four looking at.
Speaker 4 (08:41):
This crowd doing a victory lap when all the senior
FBI officials across all key divisions have been fired for
political purposes. When in some field office is up to
forty five percent of the FBI officers who were doing
things like counter tespionage and cyber have been assigned to
do immigration. It's a little rich that they're saying that America,
(09:03):
say how much earlier could we have caught this guy
if resources hadn't been diverted? And I hope it would
also remind folks that on January sixth, I was here
at the capital on January sixth. It was an ugly,
awful day and this administration and this president basically pardoned
all the perpetrators. You know, it's that kind of picking
and choosing a fact from this crowd. That makes me
(09:24):
a little bit.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
Crazy there, man. There might have been a time when
you'd hear something like that from a Democrat United States
senator and you'd say, hmm, you know he's approaching this
in good faith. I should really hear him out. No,
we all, we all know how they've played the game.
We saw what was done with the FBI. We lived
through the Russia collusion hoax. We lived through the absurd
(09:45):
prosecutions of Donald Trump, including for a bookkeeping issue. I'm
not even it's not even didn't even do anything wrong.
That's the craziest part about the New York case against
Trump was that it's not even that they magnified wrong doing.
They manufactured wrongdoing. They manufactured it. And by the way,
(10:08):
manufacturing delusion pre sale available now. Fantastic book. Let's take
it to number one, everybody. Fantastic book written by yours truly,
mister buck Sexton, on mass delusion and how you make
it happen and how you make people crazy so you
can then mobilize them like a whole bunch of puppets
to go do whatever you want. Sotalitarian regimes do it
Democrats do it. There's the book, go get it, Manufacturing Delusion,
(10:31):
available wherever fine books are sold. But you know, they
manufactured the case against Trump entirely in New York, and that,
my friends, has done tremendous damage to our faith in
the justice system. That has changed the way that we
can even view not only the FBI and the US
(10:54):
attorneys things like that, somebody at the level of the
state Attorney General New York. So it's it's a mess,
and it's a mess that we have to continue to
be very clear in our efforts to clean it up.
We have to do what is necessary here. And I
(11:15):
think that the more clarity we have on this the better.
The more clarity we have on the situation, not just
the pipe armor, but also what else was done within
this FBI. What were the priorities of this FBI. We
shall absolutely discuss this. By the way, a couple of
things in the legal front, just some breaking news items
I wanted to put on your radar. Peel's court rules
(11:36):
Trump can continue the National Guard deployment in DC. That's
that's important one. And the Supreme Court has said that
Texas can use the redistrict redistricting map for congressional seats
there that, of course Democrats said was racially discriminatory. By that,
they just mean did not advantage Democrats. So those are
(11:58):
two Those are two wins for the Trump administration and
for the good guys sout that put that out there.
Good stuff, all right. The IFCJ, the International Fellowship of
Christians and Jews, is very busy this month. They've deployed
people and resources in Ukraine paying attention to members of
the Jewish faith who desperately need assistance with heating bills,
food provision, and medical attention for Ukrainian residents like eighty
(12:21):
five year old Maria, a Jewish woman living in Ukraine.
That's heartwarming news. She's one of the many Ukrainian citizens
in need of food, medicine and assistance with heating bills. Today,
many of the nonprofit organizations that race into Ukraine have
moved on, but not the International Fellowship of Christians and
Jews or the IFCJ. They're still here. The IFCJS continue
to do what they can to help the Jewish faith
in Ukraine, particularly elderly. Please to rush your gift of
(12:45):
twenty five dollars that would really help with these efforts
to rush your gift. Call eighty eight four eight eight
IFCJ that's eight eight eight four eight eight four three
two five, or give online at Fellowship gift dot org.
That's Fellowship Gift.

Speaker 1 (13:17):
Welcome back in here to play and Buck. Okay, so
I've got some some updates here on this this individual,
this this pipe the pipe bomber guy they are reporting. Now,
let me see who this is. There are reports out
(13:40):
there trying to make sure that I source this properly,
that the pipe bomber may have been upset about the
twenty twenty election and viewed it as stolen, so that
I I'm trying to find I'm seeing this being shared
(14:02):
by people who generally know what they're talking about, but
I do not yet have clear sourcing on this. So
I'm gonna guys help me track this down. That is
certainly flying around the This is the thing with X. Now,
all the newsrooms are trying to catch up to X
in real time. And I think on MS now, I
(14:24):
was just talking about MS now, they are already reporting
on this where they're saying that this guy was upset
about a stolen election and that that went to his motivation.
Could be the case if it is, If that is confirmed,
I'll report it as confirmed here. But that is making
the rounds right now. A lot of you are gonna say,
(14:46):
no way, this is you know, it's false flag. I'm
just telling you right now, there's stories coming out here,
or there are people coming out with those allegations. We
are we are here, or I should say, with those
bits of analysis that this could have been a guy
who at least ostensibly was of the right. He's a
(15:07):
black guy, thirty years old. We know he lived with
his family. I think he worked for the family business.
I mean live with his parents. Those are the things
that are confirmed. Will continue to chase down where this
goes on motivation. As I was saying before before I
even saw this, there I think was a desire to
(15:32):
let this case go stale, just because there was always
in the minds of the FBI at the time, there's
always the possibility that this wasn't going to come out.
This guy could have been a leftist, could have been
a false lag whatever it is, and they were busy
chasing down grandma's who were there. On January sixth, the
next day, here is the Attorney General, current Attorney General,
(15:52):
making exactly that case play cut three.
Speaker 6 (15:54):
This case languished. It's set there for four years collecting dust.
No one did anything to solve this and Rite when
Cashpttel and Dan Bongino came in, Dan said to me.
Dan said to all of us, I'm going to solve
this case. He put a new team on it, working
with Ginny Impiro, our US attorney, with Todd Blanche, with
(16:15):
all of our attorneys at Maine Justice. A new team
gathered on this case, old evidence, new people, great police work.
Speaker 7 (16:23):
That's all.
Speaker 6 (16:23):
It is, good old fashion police work. And it solved
a case that right from where I'm sitting. This bomb
was planted at the RNC, a pipe bomb at the DNC.
They were real, Thank goodness, they didn't detonate. Both bombs
were real.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
So we had it was live ordinance. By the way,
I think that's also where these were not dud or
dummy bombs. These bombs could have gone off and could
have killed people, were nimed people. So it's a very
serious crime what was done here. And if some maniac
thought that in some way he was helping the right
by doing this, he's a moron who should pay the
full price of under statute, under the law. If that
(17:02):
is in fact the case, then he's an Then he's
an idiot, and he hurt everything that he thought that
he was, you know, standing for or whatever. And I'm
still to be clear, I'm just glad they found the
guy who did it allegedly allegedly, but I'm glad that
they found the pipe armmer. They should have found this
guy much faster. And this administration, this FBI wanted to
(17:24):
close this case and they did. So there you have it.
There was a lot of high fiving yesterday at the
press conference of each other, probably more than was necessary,
but that's I don't want to quibble. I do think though,
that bringing this to the conclusion was absolutely the right thing,
and and the FBI deserves credit for it and a
director's Patel and Bongino deserve credit, as does ag Pambondi.
(17:46):
So there we have. As I get more details on this,
I'll bring them to you. But at least right now,
there's there's words being spread that this guy was angry
about the twenty twenty election. Whether you know whether you
take that or not, we'll get into it. Holiday season

All right, welcome back in here to Clay and Buck.
Right now in real time, my friends, as we are live,
we have the FIFA event underway. It's where Clay is
right now in Washington, d C. Trump is on stage
with Gianni Infantino, who is the FIFA President, which FIFA
(19:12):
is like the Big Soccer, the International Soccer Federation. And
Trump is getting the FIFA Prize for Peace, which I
will tell you I did not know the FIFA Peace Prize.
I did not know this was a thing. This is
at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC. You know what,
Let's join this live for a second. Everyone's going live
(19:34):
on this one. Will go live on it for a second.
Speaker 8 (19:35):
Let's hear thens of my life and beyond awards. John
and I were discussing this. We saved millions and millions
of lives. The Congo is an example, over ten million
people killed and it was heading for another ten million
very quickly. And it just you know the fact that
we could do that in the Pakistan. So many different
(19:56):
wars that we're able to end in some cases a
little bit before they started, just right before they started.
Speaker 7 (20:02):
It was going to be late, but we got them done.
Speaker 8 (20:04):
And it's such an honor to be with Johnny. I've
known Johnny for so long. He's done such an incredible job.
And I have to tell you you've set new records
on ticket sales.
Speaker 7 (20:16):
And not to bring that up because we don't want
to bring a thing like that up right now.
Speaker 8 (20:20):
But it's an awfully nice tribute to you and to
the game of football or as we call it, soccer,
but football.
Speaker 7 (20:28):
And that is an amazing thing.
Speaker 8 (20:30):
The numbers are beyond any numbers that anybody, even beyond
what Johnny thought was possible.
Speaker 7 (20:37):
I want to thank, by.
Speaker 8 (20:38):
The way, my family, my great first lady Milania, you're
right here, and.
Speaker 7 (20:44):
Thank you very much.
Speaker 8 (20:50):
And I think you're going to have an event the
likes of which maybe the world has never seen.
Speaker 7 (20:54):
Based on the enthusiasm that I've seen, I have never
seen anything like it.
Speaker 8 (20:59):
We've had a and this relationship, working relationship with Canada.
We have our Prime Minister of Canada there and we
have our president of Mexico. Now we've worked closely with
those two countries and the coordination and friendship and relationship
has been outstanding, and I want to thank you both
very much and your country is very much but most importantly,
(21:22):
I just want to thank everybody.
Speaker 7 (21:24):
The world is a safer place now.
Speaker 8 (21:26):
The United States one year ago was not doing too well,
and now I have to say, with the hottest country anywhere.
Speaker 7 (21:32):
In the world, that we're going to keep it that way.
Thank you all, Thank you, have a great time.
Speaker 8 (21:37):
And Johnny a tremendous honor thank you, Thank you us.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
There we go, President Trump. That was perfect timing, coming
right back there and able to just like I was
able to hand the mic off to the President himself.
So he just got his the first ever FIFA Peace Prize.
Well that's why I didn't know it was a thing.
It wasn't a thing until now, So that makes more sense.
Speaker 7 (22:01):
Now.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
Of course, you're gonna have some in the commentariat who
will raise the why not a Nobel Why not a
Nobel Peace Prize for Trump? Given the negotiated end of
different conflicts that he's been involved in, and then compare
that to Nobel Nobel recipients in the past of the
(22:23):
Peace Prize specifically, and you'd say to yourself, it didn't Obama.
Obama got the I know we got a Nobel, but yeah,
it was a peace prize. I guess that's the one
they give to people that's the most like, Yeah, we
like him, we like Obama. So he gets a Nobel
Peace Prize.
Speaker 7 (22:36):
Did he do anything?
Speaker 1 (22:37):
No, but he's Obama sore. He gets one that I think,
more than anything else, really undermined it. I don't know
how much people particularly care about this. We're moving away
from an era where those sorts of garnishes on your resume,
even as a global statesman. Eh. I think it's a
(23:00):
little bit of who cares. I think what matters is
what you do and the good that you do and
the lives that are saved if you're in a position
like President Trump, uh, and the American strength that you
put on display, and all the benefits of that for
we the American people. I'm not I'm not really an
awards guy as a general rule. You know, I think
(23:23):
we have entered and everybody gets a trophy era to
the point where trophies. What does it does it even
really mean? I don't know. Look, if some of you
have a big trophy from you know, your local golf club,
in the in the cabinet or in your in your
man cave or whatever. That's cool, that's fine, But I
just tend to not be somebody who is big on awards.
Speaker 7 (23:43):
You know.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
I think the award is the result of the reality. Right.
If it's in business, it's obviously the financial success that
you have from it. If it's in life, it's you
get to live a great life. I mean, that is
the reward, right, So anyway that's going on there. So
I don't even know if Trump should he wants a
(24:05):
no about Peace Prize because he's Trump, and there'd be something.
I think he's completely deserving of it, but I think
there's something that would also be It would just be funny,
wouldn't it if at that point Trump got the Noble
or if at some point Trump got the Nobel Peace
Prize after all of the things that the establishment, in
(24:25):
a sense, it would be the ultimate defeat of the
or an ultimate defeat of the globalist establishment that has
hated Trump all along. That really their most prized thing
that they confer like that. That's why Obama got it,
all the global elites. Obama is amazing, Well, it turns
(24:46):
out not amazing. Not amazing for a world peace at all.
If you go back to the Obama administration on foreign policy,
it was a disaster. Syria, Iraq, maybe a Afghanistan good
on the list, horrible everywhere. The beginning of the Russian
invasion of Ukraine. By the way, Obama didn't want to
(25:06):
do too much, didn't want to upset the Russians at
a time when maybe he could have really thrown a
brush back pitch to get the Russians to back off. Nope,
Obama was horrible. Oh also way too friendly with all
the worst socialist left wing maniacs all across Latin America.
By the way, I've got a deep dive coming out
for you this weekend on the Buck Brief, which is
(25:27):
the podcast part of the klan Buck podcast network on Venezuela.
I just spend fifteen minutes just riffing on everything that
I think you need to know about Venezuela for the
last fifteen years and fifteen minutes. Basically. That'll be in
the klaan Buck podcast Network right after the show today,
So go check that out because you need to know
how crazy there's a reason there's a fifty million dollar
(25:48):
bounty on this guy's head. He's essentially Pablo Escobar, but
he's the president of a country that has the largest
proven oil reserves in the world, but he's a drug kingpin.
This is why we're hitting these boats in Venezuela. Is
so upset about it and all the things that you
see going on. So and also how do we get
to this point the hyper inflation, the criminality everything. If
(26:09):
you gave me fifteen minutes to listen over this weekend,
great thing to check out. Well you're driving around, or
you're making dinner or cleaning up the yard with your
headphones and whatever it is, I think you really enjoy that.
Buck brief Pot has old school. For those of you
who are original Saturday Squad, you remember some of the
National Security de drives we used to do. But on Venezuela,
(26:29):
I think people that need to really know. Because we'll
talk to Senator Mark Wayne rolling about this in a
little bit. Things are things are heating up, obviously heating
up a lot on those boats that are getting blown up.
Another one happened just last night. Pete hegg Saith calling
out that this is going to continue on that they're
(26:49):
not going to back off of hitting these narco boats,
not one bit, not one inch. So that to me
is interesting, all right, So something else is enough speaking
about the drug boats here, Tom Cotton, it was a
veteran and obviously a senator. He has spoken out now
that there have been these closed door classified briefings. Is
(27:11):
spoken out about what has happened here. I'm going to
give you both of the key This has cut seven
and eight team, both of the key takeaways from Senator
Cotton about these strikes and specifically the allegation. Let's be
very clear about this, the allegation that there was a
war crime committed here by the Trump administration, more specifically
(27:35):
by Secretary of War Heagsett. That's what the media has
been insinuating, if not just outright, no, they've been alleging it.
They've definitely been alleging war crime. Who's responsible for it?
In the chain of command that you know, they can
kind of pick and choose a little more of where
they're putting there, where they're putting their ire. But this
is the senator's response on it. This has cut seven play.
Speaker 7 (27:57):
It no both.
Speaker 9 (28:02):
Adamal Brawler was very clear that he was given no
such order not to give no quarter or to kill
them all, that he was given an order that, of
course was written down in great detail, as our military
always does.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
There you go, He says, there was no order to
kill them all. And this is again why I think
that there was a little bit of static on this
we were talking about a few days ago. I think the
strikes are lawful, and I think the way they conducted
this strike, based on my understanding of the facts, was lawful.
But there is such a thing as an unlawful strike,
(28:37):
and I think some people lost sight of that. If
someone if you find someone after the strike floating on
a piece of refuse, you know, a quarter mile away, unconscious, unconscious,
you know, you can't walk up to them with a
silence pistol and give them a double tap in the
head and say sorry, enemy combatant, like you can't do that.
(29:00):
Warrender US federal law and take your pick, but you
can't actually do that. That's not what happened here. That's
not what happened. All jokes about our wonderful caller Linda aside,
take them out, finish them off. No, that's something else.
Here is a center of cotton. Actually continuing here, he's
saying that it was entirely lawful and in fact, under
(29:20):
the circumstances he says needed play eight.
Speaker 9 (29:23):
The first strike, the second strike, and the third and
the fourth strike on September second, entirely lawful and needful.
I saw two survivors trying to flip the boat loaded
with drugs found for the United States back over so
they could stay in the fight and potentially give them
to all the context, we heard of other narco terrorist
(29:45):
boats in the area coming to their aid to recover
their care oro and recover those Narco terrorists.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
Still in the fight. Lawful strike, that's what he sees.
That's what was brief behind closed doors, and that's what
Admiral Brad apparently testified to. So there you have it.
That's that's what we've got. All this other stuff, all
the war crimes, everything else. They really, you know so
much about the media based on who they hate the most.
(30:16):
You know, it tells you a lot man. They want
to take out Hegseth from his role as Secretary of War,
and they also want to remove Cash Betel another hit
piece on Cash today. They're really going after Cash as
director of the FBI. So I think when you start
to have and I understand there's some there's always room
(30:38):
for criticism if you knew enough, If anyone knows enough
about any of these bureaucracies, the people in charge of
them are going to make mistakes and they're going to
be areas where they should be criticized. That's just This
would be like if if you're coaching a professional sports team,
even if you're a great coach, anyone can watch a
game and be like, look, that was the wrong play there,
(30:58):
And that's true. But that's a different thing from firearm.
He's not a good coach. That's different. I think they've
been given very difficult jobs. I think the FBI reforming
the FBI job to me sounds like it's even more
just thankless and impossible in some ways. Then I know,
the DD is like the largest bureaucracy in the world
(31:20):
Department Defense, not Department of War. But everything I hear
from all the active duty and veterans that I speak
to is that there's such a they're so happy about
the restoration of the esprit de corps of the military
to be a lethal fighting force, war making machine when necessary, right,
(31:44):
preparing for war when necessary, not some social justice experiment
where everyone gets a trophy and they're supposed to sit
around and you know, play hopscotch together or something. I
mean like this, this is meant to be what it
is is the Department of War. The FBI side of things,
I feel like is just more man. They got a
(32:05):
lot of entrenched bureaucrats in there, a lot of comyism,
a lot of comyism deeply enmeshed in that FBI bureaucracy,
and very very tough to separate that out. We'll take
some calls and some of your talkbacks here. Remember we
got Senator Senator Mark Waynemullen will be with us shortly.
Talk to him about the strikes and all that that's
(32:29):
coming up. When tragedy strikes the tunnel, The Towers Foundation
honors America's heroes and their families. Heroes like United States
Army specialist Andy Kingsley. Andy served our nation with honor
as part of the eighty second Airborne Division. Throughout his
distinguished career, he received various awards and decorations, including a
Purple Heart. But while Andy was deployed, he was severely injured.
(32:50):
The incident resulted in the loss of his right leg,
partial vision loss, and a traumatic brain injury. He spent
over a year at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center
learning how to navigate life with his injuries. Living with
severe combat injuries can make even life's daily task challenging.
That's why receiving a specially adapted mortgage free smart home
from Tunnel to Towers has been life changing for Andy.
(33:11):
It allows him to live with greater independence and dignity.
This is the power of giving to Tunnel to Towers.
Many more heroes like Andy need your support and they
use your donations Wisely. Donate eleven dollars a month. Do
Tunnel to Towers at T two t dot org. That's
t the number two t dot org s.
Speaker 5 (33:30):
Peek out with the guys on the Sunday Hang with
Clay and Buck podcast, a new episode every Sunday. Find
it on the iHeart app or wherever you get your podcasts.
Speaker 1 (33:40):
All right, welcome back into Clay and Buck. That other guy, Clay,
he's at the FIFA event which was just happening or
is just happening right now, and he may actually call
us to tell us about it. Apparently it is no surprise,
an awesome event, fabulous, even a fabulous and awesome event.
Which is very exciting. And we'll see if he's either
(34:03):
gonna send us a talkback or he's going to call
us and in real time we'll talk about this event.
All of you have to pretend to care about soccer today.
Apparently Trump is there getting an award. So Trump is
like soccer. Fabulous game, very few goals, but the goals
special each one. Beautiful goals, big beautiful goals when they're scored.
(34:26):
We also have some talkbacks here, including from This is
from Donato. That's a cool name in Florida. Listens on
w FLA crash. This is AA if you would play
this talkback.
Speaker 10 (34:38):
They this Denado down in Panelas County, Florida, the Free
State of Florida. I'm backing you up again, Buck with
this manhood crap. Look, you got great hair, you got
a nice beard, you own guns, you listen to ac DC,
and you know you believe in the rule of laws.
So let these guys back off. Not only that, you're
(35:00):
a really good dad to James Speed, you're a husband
to carry, You take good care of Ginger.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
Come on now, I gotta say, I gotta have uncle
Donado call in more so, thank you for that. Well,
that was great. I didn't even know what that guy
was gonna say. That's fantastic. Check it that. I gotta say,
the check is in the mail.
Speaker 7 (35:19):
Did not.
Speaker 1 (35:19):
Oh, thank you so much. Uh, that was very kind. Yeah.
I'm actually gonna be going shooting next weekend, so i'd
have to clean I have to clean my guns, I
guess said cleaning the guns. I don't like cleaning guns.
I like shooting guns, loading them clean, loading them, getting
them worked on with the guns with all of but
cleaning them. I know, pistols are easy. It's long guns
(35:40):
that are just kind of a pain. We'll see if
we get Uh, let me see. Canada and Mexico were
just drawn. Trump Trump is drawing. Now do we know
what did America get? Do we know yet?
Speaker 4 (35:54):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (35:54):
Okay, Well, on the edge of your seats, everybody. Donald
Trump just drew for the US men's national soccer team
in the World Cup. And I know you're all on
your edge of your seats about that. So we will
bring that to you. Perhaps Clay will even call in
and we can discuss that. And in the meantime, we've
(36:15):
also got Senator Mark Wayne Mullen coming up at one
thirty Eastern, so that'll be the next hour in the
midway point, and a lot of great things to be
talking to you about there. So Sena's your talkback, sens
your calls, and we're gonna make sense of this all
and I'm gonna have to learn about FIFA brackets in
the meantime. So these are the things I do for you.
(36:37):
I'm what you call a team player.
Welcome everybody to the Friday edition of the Clay, Travis
and Buck Sexton Show. You will only be hearing my
voice today though, because mister Clay is at the FIFA
thing with Trump and all of the fancy people in DC.
So I am going to be handling the show here.
If Clay wants to, like Texter or calling, at some point,
(00:21):
he will let us know how it's going. I actually
like soccer. I know many of you are laughing at that,
but I like soccer. But I do not know about
a bracket. I'm not going to the bracket thing because
people don't think of me as a sports guy in
that sense. So yeah, that's where that is. So Clay
will be back with us, of course on Monday, and
(00:41):
in the meantime we get a lot of news my friends. Oh,
I've also got some fantastic guests lined up, Senator Mark
Wayne Mullin of Oklahoma. Second Hour. We'll talk to him
about the Narco boats, the blowing up of the Narco boats,
about Venezuela, and some other things that come to mind.
Isabel Brown, conservative commentator. She was on. She's one of
(01:05):
the young guns. You know, she's an up and coming
you'll be seeing more and more of her, very talented
young lady. She was on CNN and dueling with the
CNN communists quite well, quite well, So we'll talk to
her about what that was like. She was on set
with them. So that's always I don't think I ever
told you guys this. I might have, but after I've
(01:25):
been a CNN commentator for a couple of years, and
they this was back in twenty they I couldn't do it.
Once Trump won the election, I was like, I can't
work at CNN anymore because or work for CNN in
any capacity, because I realized they had gone completely insane.
It is hard for anyone to understand now without having
(01:45):
experienced it, how much CNN internally hated Trump after that
first election, and how just they were all crying like constantly,
and I actually mean crying, I don't mean that metal
for there was just sadness all over the building. I
was like, I can't these people out of their minds.
(02:07):
I can't be the conservative that they bring because they
weren't even gonna use anymore. You know, they wouldn't let
me talk because I would smoke all the fools that
they have on TV. But I remember I walked into
the CNN building and Jeff Zucker and I walked in
because a friend of mine had asked me to come
and check out her show on HLN. Believe it or not,
(02:29):
I said, yeah, sure, So I went there and I
bumped into Jeff Zucker, who was the head of CNN,
in the lobby, and he just kind of looked at
me and he's like, what are you doing here? I
was like, oh man, I was like, am I band
Clay is officially banned? I was this close to being
banned because they wanted to keep me around. I said
absolutely not, no interest. I'd rather not have a job
(02:51):
in television than continue to work at CNN. So we'll
talk to Isabelle Brown about that. Oh and then Steve Hilton,
who was running for governor of California, we'll discuss with
him in the third hour of the program. Here's his premise.
You think the fraud in Minneapolis from the Somali community
is bad, just wait till you look under the hood
(03:11):
in California. So we shall have that discussion with him.
He thinks it's worse. Well, it's certainly bigger, I would think,
because it's California. Right, but he'll tell us, he'll make
his case as he does, and then we have CNN
back again here in our sits CNN's Jake Tapper. As
we know, there was an identification made of the pipe
(03:34):
bombing suspect, and there's gonna be a lot of conversation
out who is this guy? What was he doing? Why
did it take four years to four plus years to
find him? What really was the situation? Here? This is
how they reported on it over at CNN. This is
Jake Tapper play club.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
After years of investigation, the FBI finally announced that they
had arrested as a suspect accused of planting type bonds
near the Republican and Democratic National Committee headquarters the night
before the January sixth, twenty twenty one Capitol attack. Brian
Cole Junior, a thirty year old white man from the
DC suburbs, is charts with transporting and explosive device in
(04:17):
interstate commerce and with malicious destruction.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
Hear that you catch that other? He described him as
a thirty year old white man. Now, I know this
is radio, but you could go to clayanbuck dot com.
I'm sure we could put the photo up. There's ever
we could see or you just you know, you go
to any any news headline about this. It's definitely not
a white guy. And I think what he said it
(04:43):
actually there was a photo on the screen too. It's
definitely not a white guy. But this is what was
interesting to me about this, or we're gonna get more
into this. This guy is obviously allone and there's there's
now different stories about you know, who he supported and
what he likes and all this other stuff. As we know,
how much reporting there is on this is going to
(05:03):
be a pure function of how at some networks of
how useful it is or not useful to Democrats. But
the fact that it took as much time as it did,
I think alone indicates that there was a lack of
focus on it because there was at least a concern
(05:24):
that it would not be from the Biden powers that be.
There was a concern that it would not be additive
to the narrative. Here is the former deputy FBI director
and deep State extraordinary individual Andrew McKay. Remember Trump fired
(05:45):
him and he lost his pension. I think then he
got it back and now he's a contributor on TV.
This is the guy who is a real scumbag, very odd.
It's unfortunate when you think back to some of the
people who have had these jobs, because it tarnishes the institution.
It's one thing where you have somebody who's not great
at the job. It's another thing when you have somebody
who's just not a good person, not ant like James Comy,
(06:08):
not an ethical, honest, straight up individual. And that's certainly
the case with Andrew McCabe. And here he is, of
course over at what was this MSNBC or CNN. I
keep saying MSNBC. They had to change the name. It's
ms now because I'm sure NBC no longer wanted to
(06:28):
be affiliated with the lunacy. The NBC News department wanted
to continue their propaganda unburdened by what has been over
at MSNBC. Here is Andrew McCabe, formerly the FBI, at
CNN here play two.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
It's really hard for me to believe Casey that it
was ignored over the last many years. I think Evans
characterized it well. You bring in a new team to
look at the evidence you have in a different way,
to maybe see things that your investigators who've been beating
their heads on this stuff for years haven't seen. But
(07:02):
ultimately what you have here is an incredibly detailed data collection,
and I'm sure a lot of that data was collected
before this new you know, refresh took place. Let's remember
it took the FBI eighteen years to find the unibomber
right after his first bomb in nineteen seventy eight. So
these are tough cases and sometimes take a long time.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Any of you buying that was this guy was on
video in our nation's capital outside the RNC with a
pipe bomb. We had him on video, right. I mean
this is also in an era of ping cell phones,
which they use to get him. It's always that the
people don't realize your cell phone is tracking you everywhere,
(07:47):
whether you know it or not, but they use ping
cell phones and receipts of what he bought. But I
don't buy at all that this was something that they
were trying really hard to figure out and only in
addition to the work already done to this FBI. No,
I think that there was a renewed focus on it,
but I think that the primary focus along regardless by
(08:09):
the way of whatever this guy's ideology. As we look
deeper into it, turns out to be, but it seems
to me very clear that there was a renewed focus
on this case, and so that's why they were able
to bring it to this conclusion of the arrest and
the alleged perpetrator of these attacks is now in custody. Oh,
(08:31):
we got Senator Mark Warner here. This is also interesting,
Senator Mark Warner saying that the DOJ is picking and
choosing facts. Listen to this play four looking at.
Speaker 4 (08:41):
This crowd doing a victory lap when all the senior
FBI officials across all key divisions have been fired for
political purposes. When in some field office is up to
forty five percent of the FBI officers who were doing
things like counter tespionage and cyber have been assigned to
do immigration. It's a little rich that they're saying that America,
(09:03):
say how much earlier could we have caught this guy
if resources hadn't been diverted? And I hope it would
also remind folks that on January sixth, I was here
at the capital on January sixth. It was an ugly,
awful day and this administration and this president basically pardoned
all the perpetrators. You know, it's that kind of picking
and choosing a fact from this crowd. That makes me
(09:24):
a little bit.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
Crazy there, man. There might have been a time when
you'd hear something like that from a Democrat United States
senator and you'd say, hmm, you know he's approaching this
in good faith. I should really hear him out. No,
we all, we all know how they've played the game.
We saw what was done with the FBI. We lived
through the Russia collusion hoax. We lived through the absurd
(09:45):
prosecutions of Donald Trump, including for a bookkeeping issue. I'm
not even it's not even didn't even do anything wrong.
That's the craziest part about the New York case against
Trump was that it's not even that they magnified wrong doing.
They manufactured wrongdoing. They manufactured it. And by the way,
(10:08):
manufacturing delusion pre sale available now. Fantastic book. Let's take
it to number one, everybody. Fantastic book written by yours truly,
mister buck Sexton, on mass delusion and how you make
it happen and how you make people crazy so you
can then mobilize them like a whole bunch of puppets
to go do whatever you want. Sotalitarian regimes do it
Democrats do it. There's the book, go get it, Manufacturing Delusion,
(10:31):
available wherever fine books are sold. But you know, they
manufactured the case against Trump entirely in New York, and that,
my friends, has done tremendous damage to our faith in
the justice system. That has changed the way that we
can even view not only the FBI and the US
(10:54):
attorneys things like that, somebody at the level of the
state Attorney General New York. So it's it's a mess,
and it's a mess that we have to continue to
be very clear in our efforts to clean it up.
We have to do what is necessary here. And I
(11:15):
think that the more clarity we have on this the better.
The more clarity we have on the situation, not just
the pipe armor, but also what else was done within
this FBI. What were the priorities of this FBI. We
shall absolutely discuss this. By the way, a couple of
things in the legal front, just some breaking news items
I wanted to put on your radar. Peel's court rules
(11:36):
Trump can continue the National Guard deployment in DC. That's
that's important one. And the Supreme Court has said that
Texas can use the redistrict redistricting map for congressional seats
there that, of course Democrats said was racially discriminatory. By that,
they just mean did not advantage Democrats. So those are
(11:58):
two Those are two wins for the Trump administration and
for the good guys sout that put that out there.
Good stuff, all right. The IFCJ, the International Fellowship of
Christians and Jews, is very busy this month. They've deployed
people and resources in Ukraine paying attention to members of
the Jewish faith who desperately need assistance with heating bills,
food provision, and medical attention for Ukrainian residents like eighty
(12:21):
five year old Maria, a Jewish woman living in Ukraine.
That's heartwarming news. She's one of the many Ukrainian citizens
in need of food, medicine and assistance with heating bills. Today,
many of the nonprofit organizations that race into Ukraine have
moved on, but not the International Fellowship of Christians and
Jews or the IFCJ. They're still here. The IFCJS continue
to do what they can to help the Jewish faith
in Ukraine, particularly elderly. Please to rush your gift of
(12:45):
twenty five dollars that would really help with these efforts
to rush your gift. Call eighty eight four eight eight
IFCJ that's eight eight eight four eight eight four three
two five, or give online at Fellowship gift dot org.
That's Fellowship Gift.

The team forty seven podcasts Sunday's at noon Eastern in
the Clay and Buck podcast feed. Fight It on the
iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Welcome back in here to play and Buck. Okay, so
I've got some some updates here on this this individual,
this this pipe the pipe bomber guy they are reporting. Now,
let me see who this is. There are reports out
(13:40):
there trying to make sure that I source this properly,
that the pipe bomber may have been upset about the
twenty twenty election and viewed it as stolen, so that
I I'm trying to find I'm seeing this being shared
(14:02):
by people who generally know what they're talking about, but
I do not yet have clear sourcing on this. So
I'm gonna guys help me track this down. That is
certainly flying around the This is the thing with X. Now,
all the newsrooms are trying to catch up to X
in real time. And I think on MS now, I
(14:24):
was just talking about MS now, they are already reporting
on this where they're saying that this guy was upset
about a stolen election and that that went to his motivation.
Could be the case if it is, If that is confirmed,
I'll report it as confirmed here. But that is making
the rounds right now. A lot of you are gonna say,
(14:46):
no way, this is you know, it's false flag. I'm
just telling you right now, there's stories coming out here,
or there are people coming out with those allegations. We
are we are here, or I should say, with those
bits of analysis that this could have been a guy
who at least ostensibly was of the right. He's a
(15:07):
black guy, thirty years old. We know he lived with
his family. I think he worked for the family business.
I mean live with his parents. Those are the things
that are confirmed. Will continue to chase down where this
goes on motivation. As I was saying before before I
even saw this, there I think was a desire to
(15:32):
let this case go stale, just because there was always
in the minds of the FBI at the time, there's
always the possibility that this wasn't going to come out.
This guy could have been a leftist, could have been
a false lag whatever it is, and they were busy
chasing down grandma's who were there. On January sixth, the
next day, here is the Attorney General, current Attorney General,
(15:52):
making exactly that case play cut three.
Speaker 6 (15:54):
This case languished. It's set there for four years collecting dust.
No one did anything to solve this and Rite when
Cashpttel and Dan Bongino came in, Dan said to me.
Dan said to all of us, I'm going to solve
this case. He put a new team on it, working
with Ginny Impiro, our US attorney, with Todd Blanche, with
(16:15):
all of our attorneys at Maine Justice. A new team
gathered on this case, old evidence, new people, great police work.
Speaker 7 (16:23):
That's all.
Speaker 6 (16:23):
It is, good old fashion police work. And it solved
a case that right from where I'm sitting. This bomb
was planted at the RNC, a pipe bomb at the DNC.
They were real, Thank goodness, they didn't detonate. Both bombs
were real.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
So we had it was live ordinance. By the way,
I think that's also where these were not dud or
dummy bombs. These bombs could have gone off and could
have killed people, were nimed people. So it's a very
serious crime what was done here. And if some maniac
thought that in some way he was helping the right
by doing this, he's a moron who should pay the
full price of under statute, under the law. If that
(17:02):
is in fact the case, then he's an Then he's
an idiot, and he hurt everything that he thought that
he was, you know, standing for or whatever. And I'm
still to be clear, I'm just glad they found the
guy who did it allegedly allegedly, but I'm glad that
they found the pipe armmer. They should have found this
guy much faster. And this administration, this FBI wanted to
(17:24):
close this case and they did. So there you have it.
There was a lot of high fiving yesterday at the
press conference of each other, probably more than was necessary,
but that's I don't want to quibble. I do think though,
that bringing this to the conclusion was absolutely the right thing,
and and the FBI deserves credit for it and a
director's Patel and Bongino deserve credit, as does ag Pambondi.
(17:46):
So there we have. As I get more details on this,
I'll bring them to you. But at least right now,
there's there's words being spread that this guy was angry
about the twenty twenty election. Whether you know whether you
take that or not, we'll get into it. Holiday season

right now in Washington, d C. Trump is on stage
with Gianni Infantino, who is the FIFA President, which FIFA
(19:12):
is like the Big Soccer, the International Soccer Federation. And
Trump is getting the FIFA Prize for Peace, which I
will tell you I did not know the FIFA Peace Prize.
I did not know this was a thing. This is
at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC. You know what,
Let's join this live for a second. Everyone's going live
(19:34):
on this one. Will go live on it for a second.
Speaker 8 (19:35):
Let's hear thens of my life and beyond awards. John
and I were discussing this. We saved millions and millions
of lives. The Congo is an example, over ten million
people killed and it was heading for another ten million
very quickly. And it just you know the fact that
we could do that in the Pakistan. So many different
(19:56):
wars that we're able to end in some cases a
little bit before they started, just right before they started.
Speaker 7 (20:02):
It was going to be late, but we got them done.
Speaker 8 (20:04):
And it's such an honor to be with Johnny. I've
known Johnny for so long. He's done such an incredible job.
And I have to tell you you've set new records
on ticket sales.
Speaker 7 (20:16):
And not to bring that up because we don't want
to bring a thing like that up right now.
Speaker 8 (20:20):
But it's an awfully nice tribute to you and to
the game of football or as we call it, soccer,
but football.
Speaker 7 (20:28):
And that is an amazing thing.
Speaker 8 (20:30):
The numbers are beyond any numbers that anybody, even beyond
what Johnny thought was possible.
Speaker 7 (20:37):
I want to thank, by.
Speaker 8 (20:38):
The way, my family, my great first lady Milania, you're
right here, and.
Speaker 7 (20:44):
Thank you very much.
Speaker 8 (20:50):
And I think you're going to have an event the
likes of which maybe the world has never seen.
Speaker 7 (20:54):
Based on the enthusiasm that I've seen, I have never
seen anything like it.
Speaker 8 (20:59):
We've had a and this relationship, working relationship with Canada.
We have our Prime Minister of Canada there and we
have our president of Mexico. Now we've worked closely with
those two countries and the coordination and friendship and relationship
has been outstanding, and I want to thank you both
very much and your country is very much but most importantly,
(21:22):
I just want to thank everybody.
Speaker 7 (21:24):
The world is a safer place now.
Speaker 8 (21:26):
The United States one year ago was not doing too well,
and now I have to say, with the hottest country anywhere.
Speaker 7 (21:32):
In the world, that we're going to keep it that way.
Thank you all, Thank you, have a great time.
Speaker 8 (21:37):
And Johnny a tremendous honor thank you, Thank you us.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
There we go, President Trump. That was perfect timing, coming
right back there and able to just like I was
able to hand the mic off to the President himself.
So he just got his the first ever FIFA Peace Prize.
Well that's why I didn't know it was a thing.
It wasn't a thing until now, So that makes more sense.
Speaker 7 (22:01):
Now.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
Of course, you're gonna have some in the commentariat who
will raise the why not a Nobel Why not a
Nobel Peace Prize for Trump? Given the negotiated end of
different conflicts that he's been involved in, and then compare
that to Nobel Nobel recipients in the past of the
(22:23):
Peace Prize specifically, and you'd say to yourself, it didn't Obama.
Obama got the I know we got a Nobel, but yeah,
it was a peace prize. I guess that's the one
they give to people that's the most like, Yeah, we
like him, we like Obama. So he gets a Nobel
Peace Prize.
Speaker 7 (22:36):
Did he do anything?
Speaker 1 (22:37):
No, but he's Obama sore. He gets one that I think,
more than anything else, really undermined it. I don't know
how much people particularly care about this. We're moving away
from an era where those sorts of garnishes on your resume,
even as a global statesman. Eh. I think it's a
(23:00):
little bit of who cares. I think what matters is
what you do and the good that you do and
the lives that are saved if you're in a position
like President Trump, uh, and the American strength that you
put on display, and all the benefits of that for
we the American people. I'm not I'm not really an
awards guy as a general rule. You know, I think
(23:23):
we have entered and everybody gets a trophy era to
the point where trophies. What does it does it even
really mean? I don't know. Look, if some of you
have a big trophy from you know, your local golf club,
in the in the cabinet or in your in your
man cave or whatever. That's cool, that's fine, But I
just tend to not be somebody who is big on awards.
Speaker 7 (23:43):
You know.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
I think the award is the result of the reality. Right.
If it's in business, it's obviously the financial success that
you have from it. If it's in life, it's you
get to live a great life. I mean, that is
the reward, right, So anyway that's going on there. So
I don't even know if Trump should he wants a
(24:05):
no about Peace Prize because he's Trump, and there'd be something.
I think he's completely deserving of it, but I think
there's something that would also be It would just be funny,
wouldn't it if at that point Trump got the Noble
or if at some point Trump got the Nobel Peace
Prize after all of the things that the establishment, in
(24:25):
a sense, it would be the ultimate defeat of the
or an ultimate defeat of the globalist establishment that has
hated Trump all along. That really their most prized thing
that they confer like that. That's why Obama got it,
all the global elites. Obama is amazing, Well, it turns
(24:46):
out not amazing. Not amazing for a world peace at all.
If you go back to the Obama administration on foreign policy,
it was a disaster. Syria, Iraq, maybe a Afghanistan good
on the list, horrible everywhere. The beginning of the Russian
invasion of Ukraine. By the way, Obama didn't want to
(25:06):
do too much, didn't want to upset the Russians at
a time when maybe he could have really thrown a
brush back pitch to get the Russians to back off. Nope,
Obama was horrible. Oh also way too friendly with all
the worst socialist left wing maniacs all across Latin America.
By the way, I've got a deep dive coming out
for you this weekend on the Buck Brief, which is
(25:27):
the podcast part of the klan Buck podcast network on Venezuela.
I just spend fifteen minutes just riffing on everything that
I think you need to know about Venezuela for the
last fifteen years and fifteen minutes. Basically. That'll be in
the klaan Buck podcast Network right after the show today,
So go check that out because you need to know
how crazy there's a reason there's a fifty million dollar
(25:48):
bounty on this guy's head. He's essentially Pablo Escobar, but
he's the president of a country that has the largest
proven oil reserves in the world, but he's a drug kingpin.
This is why we're hitting these boats in Venezuela. Is
so upset about it and all the things that you
see going on. So and also how do we get
to this point the hyper inflation, the criminality everything. If
(26:09):
you gave me fifteen minutes to listen over this weekend,
great thing to check out. Well you're driving around, or
you're making dinner or cleaning up the yard with your
headphones and whatever it is, I think you really enjoy that.
Buck brief Pot has old school. For those of you
who are original Saturday Squad, you remember some of the
National Security de drives we used to do. But on Venezuela,
(26:29):
I think people that need to really know. Because we'll
talk to Senator Mark Wayne rolling about this in a
little bit. Things are things are heating up, obviously heating
up a lot on those boats that are getting blown up.
Another one happened just last night. Pete hegg Saith calling
out that this is going to continue on that they're
(26:49):
not going to back off of hitting these narco boats,
not one bit, not one inch. So that to me
is interesting, all right, So something else is enough speaking
about the drug boats here, Tom Cotton, it was a
veteran and obviously a senator. He has spoken out now
that there have been these closed door classified briefings. Is
(27:11):
spoken out about what has happened here. I'm going to
give you both of the key This has cut seven
and eight team, both of the key takeaways from Senator
Cotton about these strikes and specifically the allegation. Let's be
very clear about this, the allegation that there was a
war crime committed here by the Trump administration, more specifically
(27:35):
by Secretary of War Heagsett. That's what the media has
been insinuating, if not just outright, no, they've been alleging it.
They've definitely been alleging war crime. Who's responsible for it?
In the chain of command that you know, they can
kind of pick and choose a little more of where
they're putting there, where they're putting their ire. But this
is the senator's response on it. This has cut seven play.
Speaker 7 (27:57):
It no both.
Speaker 9 (28:02):
Adamal Brawler was very clear that he was given no
such order not to give no quarter or to kill
them all, that he was given an order that, of
course was written down in great detail, as our military
always does.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
There you go, He says, there was no order to
kill them all. And this is again why I think
that there was a little bit of static on this
we were talking about a few days ago. I think the
strikes are lawful, and I think the way they conducted
this strike, based on my understanding of the facts, was lawful.
But there is such a thing as an unlawful strike,
(28:37):
and I think some people lost sight of that. If
someone if you find someone after the strike floating on
a piece of refuse, you know, a quarter mile away, unconscious, unconscious,
you know, you can't walk up to them with a
silence pistol and give them a double tap in the
head and say sorry, enemy combatant, like you can't do that.
(29:00):
Warrender US federal law and take your pick, but you
can't actually do that. That's not what happened here. That's
not what happened. All jokes about our wonderful caller Linda aside,
take them out, finish them off. No, that's something else.
Here is a center of cotton. Actually continuing here, he's
saying that it was entirely lawful and in fact, under
(29:20):
the circumstances he says needed play eight.
Speaker 9 (29:23):
The first strike, the second strike, and the third and
the fourth strike on September second, entirely lawful and needful.
I saw two survivors trying to flip the boat loaded
with drugs found for the United States back over so
they could stay in the fight and potentially give them
to all the context, we heard of other narco terrorist
(29:45):
boats in the area coming to their aid to recover
their care oro and recover those Narco terrorists.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
Still in the fight. Lawful strike, that's what he sees.
That's what was brief behind closed doors, and that's what
Admiral Brad apparently testified to. So there you have it.
That's that's what we've got. All this other stuff, all
the war crimes, everything else. They really, you know so
much about the media based on who they hate the most.
(30:16):
You know, it tells you a lot man. They want
to take out Hegseth from his role as Secretary of War,
and they also want to remove Cash Betel another hit
piece on Cash today. They're really going after Cash as
director of the FBI. So I think when you start
to have and I understand there's some there's always room
(30:38):
for criticism if you knew enough, If anyone knows enough
about any of these bureaucracies, the people in charge of
them are going to make mistakes and they're going to
be areas where they should be criticized. That's just This
would be like if if you're coaching a professional sports team,
even if you're a great coach, anyone can watch a
game and be like, look, that was the wrong play there,
(30:58):
And that's true. But that's a different thing from firearm.
He's not a good coach. That's different. I think they've
been given very difficult jobs. I think the FBI reforming
the FBI job to me sounds like it's even more
just thankless and impossible in some ways. Then I know,
the DD is like the largest bureaucracy in the world
(31:20):
Department Defense, not Department of War. But everything I hear
from all the active duty and veterans that I speak
to is that there's such a they're so happy about
the restoration of the esprit de corps of the military
to be a lethal fighting force, war making machine when necessary, right,
(31:44):
preparing for war when necessary, not some social justice experiment
where everyone gets a trophy and they're supposed to sit
around and you know, play hopscotch together or something. I
mean like this, this is meant to be what it
is is the Department of War. The FBI side of things,
I feel like is just more man. They got a
(32:05):
lot of entrenched bureaucrats in there, a lot of comyism,
a lot of comyism deeply enmeshed in that FBI bureaucracy,
and very very tough to separate that out. We'll take
some calls and some of your talkbacks here. Remember we
got Senator Senator Mark Waynemullen will be with us shortly.
Talk to him about the strikes and all that that's
(32:29):
coming up. When tragedy strikes the tunnel, The Towers Foundation
honors America's heroes and their families. Heroes like United States
Army specialist Andy Kingsley. Andy served our nation with honor
as part of the eighty second Airborne Division. Throughout his
distinguished career, he received various awards and decorations, including a
Purple Heart. But while Andy was deployed, he was severely injured.
(32:50):
The incident resulted in the loss of his right leg,
partial vision loss, and a traumatic brain injury. He spent
over a year at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center
learning how to navigate life with his injuries. Living with
severe combat injuries can make even life's daily task challenging.
That's why receiving a specially adapted mortgage free smart home
from Tunnel to Towers has been life changing for Andy.
(33:11):
It allows him to live with greater independence and dignity.
This is the power of giving to Tunnel to Towers.
Many more heroes like Andy need your support and they
use your donations Wisely. Donate eleven dollars a month. Do
Tunnel to Towers at T two t dot org. That's
t the number two t dot org s.

I like shooting guns, loading them clean, loading them, getting
them worked on with the guns with all of but

just drawn. Trump Trump is drawing. Now do we know
what did America get? Do we know yet?

Trump just drew for the US men's national soccer team
in the World Cup. And I know you're all on
your edge of your seats about that. So we will
bring that to you. Perhaps Clay will even call in
and we can discuss that. And in the meantime, we've

also got Senator Mark Wayne Mullen coming up at one
thirty Eastern, so that'll be the next hour in the
midway point, and a lot of great things to be
talking to you about there. So Sena's your talkback, sens
your calls, and we're gonna make sense of this all
and I'm gonna have to learn about FIFA brackets in
the meantime. So these are the things I do for you.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
