Hour 1 - I Forgive You

Hour 1 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show delivers a powerful and emotionally charged breakdown of the memorial event for conservative activist Charlie Kirk, whose recent assassination has galvanized the conservative movement. Clay and Buck reflect on the massive turnout in Phoenix—nearly 90,000 attendees—and the impactful speeches delivered by Vice President JD Vance, President Donald Trump, Senior White House Advisor Steven Miller, and Charlie's widow, Erica Kirk, whose message of forgiveness and revival resonated deeply across the country. Erica Kirk’s speech, delivered just 48 hours after her husband’s death, is highlighted as the most compelling moment of the day. Her biblical reference and refusal to incite violence underscore the conservative response to tragedy—marked by peace, unity, and spiritual renewal. Clay and Buck contrast this with leftist reactions to political violence, criticizing the media’s silence and the justification of riots as “the voice of the voiceless.” The hosts also dive into broader political commentary, including California’s controversial law barring ICE agents from wearing masks, which they label “lawless” and contemptuous of immigration enforcement. They discuss the attempted assassination of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh by a trans-identifying individual, noting the lack of media coverage and accountability, and tying it to the leaked Roe v. Wade decision. Kamala Harris’s new book becomes a focal point of debate. Buck pre-orders the memoir, promising to dissect its “score-settling” tone. The hosts mock its reception and suggest it as a punishment for fantasy football losers. They also speculate on Harris’s political future, with Stephen A. Smith declaring her career “over,” while Clay argues she may still run due to personal ambition and a perceived lack of alternatives. Gavin Newsom’s refusal to return Harris’s call during her campaign is cited as symbolic of intra-party rivalry.
