ActBlue Pleads the Fifth on Hiding Foreign Campaign Donations, SPLC Dodges on Funding the KKK & DHS Finds 146,000 Missing Children

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too.
 
 
 
Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.
 
 
 
Sports Life Lessons 
 
 
 
Buck Sexton celebrates the New York Knicks’ dramatic 29-point comeback victory, described as one of the most remarkable in NBA Finals history. Buck highlights the scale of the comeback, noting that teams down by 20+ points rarely win in postseason play, which amplifies the significance of the Knicks’ performance. The discussion expands beyond sports into a broader sports culture and societal impact narrative, with Buck emphasizing how the win has unified New York City and captured national attention, illustrating the ability of major sporting events to create shared cultural moments and civic pride. At the same time, he criticizes instances of fan misconduct, including destructive celebrations and harassment of opposing teams, calling for sportsmanship, civility, and respect in fan behavior.
 
 
 
Buck praised Knicks star Jalen Brunson for his leadership, humility, and professionalism. Buck presents Brunson as a model example of positive role models in professional sports, highlighting his “clutch” performance, team-first attitude, and composure under pressure. Brunson’s postgame remarks and actions—such as acknowledging a Make-A-Wish recipient—are used to underscore themes of character, leadership, and responsibility in public figures, reinforcing a broader discussion about the need for admirable role models in modern culture.
 
 
 
The Black Culture Problem
 
 
 
An interview with Turning Point USA reporter Savanah Hernandez, who covered the Karmelo Anthony murder trial, which resulted in a guilty verdict and a 35-year prison sentence. Hernandez provides detailed firsthand reporting on the courtroom environment, strict security measures, and intense public interest, noting that access to the trial was limited and highly competitive, with spectators lining up early each day. The hosts highlight how the case became a nationally discussed story, not only because of the crime itself but also due to the public reaction and broader cultural implications.
 
 
 
A central theme throughout Hour 2 is the behavior and messaging of Anthony’s supporters outside the courthouse, who were described as highly vocal and, at times, confrontational. The conversation centers on reports of hostility toward journalists and opposing demonstrators, with the hosts framing these interactions as part of a larger issue involving media distrust, activism, and racial narratives in high-profile legal cases. According to the discussion, many supporters appeared less focused on trial evidence and more on identity-based arguments, which the hosts argue contributed to a distorted public understanding of the case.
 
 
 
The Boy Who Cried Deal in Iran
 
 
 
Buck reports breaking news on U.S.–Iran relations and military activity. Buck provides real-time commentary on President Donald Trump’s announcement that additional military strikes on Iran were initially planned but then suddenly canceled amid reports of a diplomatic breakthrough. The show captures the fluid nature of the situation, with updates coming in live as negotiations appear to reach a critical stage.
 
 
 
This segment focuses on foreign policy, national security, and Middle East geopolitics, with Buck analyzing the implications of a potential agreement involving multiple regional and global actors. He underscores that while the reported deal could represent a major strategic success, its true impact will depend on whether it includes clear enforcement mechanisms and verifiable limits on Iran’s capabilities. The discussion reflects skepticism about long-term outcomes, with concerns raised about whether Iran will adhere to any agreement and whether the deal could simply delay future conflict.
 
 
 
There's No Fraud Data in CA
 
 
 
An interview with political strategist Ryan Girdusky, host of It's a Numbers Game podcast in the Clay and Buck podcast network. Buck and Ryan examine the U.S. Senate race in Maine, where Republicans and Democrats are closely watching a competitive contest. Girdusky provides data-driven political forecasting, explaining how incumbent strength, polling trends, and shifting voter sentiment make the race highly competitive despite controversies surrounding the Democratic candidate. A key theme is how modern political campaigns are influenced less by scandal and more by electability, with discussion highlighting that controversial candidates can remain viable if party leadership believes they can win. This segment underscores broader election strategy trends, party loyalty, and the evolving standards of political accountability in U.S. politics. 
 
 
 
The conversation then expands to the California political landscape, including the Los Angeles mayoral race and the broader challenges facing Republicans in deep-blue states. Gerdusky dismisses claims of widespread election fraud in the mayor’s race, emphasizing the lack of verifiable data while explaining demographic shifts that have made cities like Los Angeles increasingly Democratic. The hosts discuss how urban migration patterns, ideological clustering, and voter registration trends are reshaping electoral outcomes, arguing that conservative voters are leaving blue states while progressive populations concentrate in major metropolitan areas. This leads into analysis of a proposed California voter ID ballot initiative, framed as a key battleground issue that could mobilize Republican voters even in a heavily Democratic state.

Historic Drone Rescue of American Soldiers Shot Down in Iran, plus Minnesota Dems Hired Private Investigators to Target Fraud Whistleblowers

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too.
 
 
 
Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.
 
 
 
Republicans Buy Sneakers Too
 
 
 
Clay Travis and Buck Sexton talk about President Donald Trump’s appearance at Madison Square Garden during a New York Knicks game, which Clay and Buck frame as a culturally significant moment in the intersection of sports, politics, and media narratives. They analyze reactions from fans, commentary from NBA Commissioner Adam Silver, and broader questions about the NBA’s political activism, arguing that the league may be shifting away from its previously “woke” positioning. The discussion expands into a broader critique of politics in sports, media bias, and public reactions to Trump as a New York figure.
 
 
 
Could Steve Hilton Win?
 
 
 
Steve Hilton joins the show to provide a detailed update on the California gubernatorial primary, explaining that he is highly confident of securing a top-two finish and advancing to the general election, even as official results remain delayed due to prolonged vote counting across the state. A major focus is the extended timeline for ballot processing in California, with Hilton criticizing the system as inefficient and mismanaged, particularly highlighting rules that allow ballots without clear postmarks to be accepted if they include handwritten dates. The conversation frames these practices as contributing to widespread skepticism around election transparency and trust in the vote-counting process.
 
 
 
The discussion then shifts to a key voter ID ballot initiative in California, which Hilton says has strong public support and could be a near-term solution to many of the concerns being raised. The proposal would require government-issued identification for voting, whether in person or by mail, reducing reliance on signature verification processes that currently slow down vote counting. Clay and Buck strongly endorse voter ID laws, arguing they are consistent with requirements for other constitutional rights and would improve election confidence. They also debate the role of absentee and mail-in voting more broadly, suggesting that widespread early in-person voting could replace much of the current mail-based system.
 
 
 
Election Integrity
 
 
 
Clay and Buck explore campaign spending dynamics, particularly the failure of billionaire Tom Steyer to secure a top-two finish in California despite massive financial investment. This leads to a broader point about the limits of political advertising, with the hosts arguing that even heavy spending cannot overcome weak voter appeal. They also revisit recent national campaigns, suggesting that increased public exposure can sometimes hurt candidates rather than help them.
 
 
 
Sen. Tommy Tuberville
 
 
 
Clay and Buck react to breaking reports involving Iran and U.S. military tensions, after news surfaces that an American Apache helicopter may have been shot down. The hosts emphasize that President Donald Trump has indicated a potential U.S. response, pending investigation into whether the incident was hostile action, mechanical failure, or friendly fire. Alabama Senator Tommy Tuberville joins the show to weigh in on the escalating situation, warning that if Iran was responsible, consequences are likely. This segment highlights broader U.S.-Iran geopolitical tensions and national security concerns, underscoring the potential for rapid escalation in the Middle East.
 
 
 
The conversation with Senator Tuberville shifts into 2026 midterm election outlook and Senate control, where he predicts Republicans are likely to maintain their majority but expresses frustration with stalled legislative priorities. A major focus is the SAVE America Act and election security legislation, with Tuberville criticizing fellow Republicans who opposed advancing the bill. He emphasizes concerns about voter fraud, election integrity, and inconsistent vote-counting standards across states, arguing that federal action is necessary to ensure confidence in U.S. elections. The discussion also dives into the ongoing debate about the Senate filibuster, with Tuberville and the hosts suggesting Democrats would eliminate it if they regain power, raising stakes for current legislative battles.
 
 
 
They also touch on college sports controversies and NIL-era challenges, as Tuberville reacts to a controversial court ruling allowing a college quarterback accused of gambling violations to continue playing. He argues that the decision reflects a broader erosion of accountability in college athletics, pointing to issues like sports betting, transfer rules, and commercialization of college sports as threats to the integrity of the system.
