Hour 2 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show dives deep into the fiscal realities facing the United States, featuring an in-depth interview with Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin. Broadcasting from Washington, D.C., Clay and Buck engage with Senator Johnson on the pressing issue of federal spending, the national debt crisis, and the future of economic policy under the leadership of current President Donald Trump. This hour centers around the much-discussed “Big Beautiful Bill” currently navigating the U.S. Senate. Senator Johnson, a leading fiscal conservative, outlines the unsustainable trajectory of post-COVID government spending, emphasizing how emergency-level expenditures have become the new budgetary baseline. He contrasts historical fiscal responsibility—such as post-World War II spending reductions—with today’s entrenched budget inflation, highlighting a 58% increase in federal outlays since 2019. Key topics include: The transformation of discretionary spending into mandatory spending during the pandemic. The urgent need for a forensic audit of over 2,600 federal programs to identify waste and inefficiencies. The political and economic implications of Medicaid expansion and its unintended consequences, including crowding out care for vulnerable populations. The strategic importance of border security funding and the fiscal mismanagement surrounding immigration-related expenditures. The role of President Trump in shaping the bill and his interactions with Senator Johnson, including a candid exchange about the senator’s “too negative” messaging. The potential for reconciliation processes to further conservative budget reforms. The broader economic impact of inflation, interest rates, and the national debt, with projections of $14 trillion in interest payments over the next decade. The historical context of U.S. GDP growth, with a sobering reminder that the country hasn’t seen 4% growth since the 1960s. The potential for AI and technological innovation to drive future economic expansion, albeit with caution. Senator Johnson also critiques the lack of economic literacy among many in Congress and underscores the need for a cultural shift in how Americans view federal spending. He likens the current fiscal situation to a family living beyond its means, calling for a return to pre-pandemic spending levels and a long-term commitment to fiscal discipline.

Israel Strikes Iran A powerful and timely breakdown of the breaking news surrounding Israel’s unprecedented military strike on Iran’s nuclear and military infrastructure. Broadcasting live as the story unfolds, Clay and Buck provide exclusive insights from their recent visit to the White House, including a private meeting with President Donald Trump in the Oval Office just hours before the Israeli operation commenced. The hosts emphasize the strategic brilliance and secrecy of the mission, highlighting how President Trump and his administration maintained operational security while publicly signaling diplomacy. Drawing on Buck Sexton’s CIA background and Clay Travis’s recent travels to Israel, the duo analyzes the geopolitical implications of the Israeli airstrike, which targeted Iran’s nuclear facilities, ballistic missile infrastructure, and senior IRGC leadership. They describe the operation as potentially the most impressive tactical aerial strike of the 21st century, comparing its precision and scale to historic military campaigns. Josh Hammer live from Tel Aviv The hour features a live report from Newsweek’s Josh Hammer, broadcasting from Tel Aviv, who shares firsthand accounts of life under missile sirens and the Israeli public’s overwhelming support for the strike. Hammer underscores that across Israel’s political spectrum, there is near-universal consensus on the existential threat posed by Iran’s nuclear ambitions. He also notes the quiet approval from key Arab nations like Saudi Arabia and the UAE, despite their public condemnations. Clay and Buck explore the broader Middle East dynamics, including the fallout from Hamas’s October 7th attack, the weakening of Hezbollah, and the strategic miscalculations by Iran and its proxies. They credit President Trump’s leadership and the current administration’s discipline in avoiding leaks and maintaining a strong deterrence posture.

Hour 2 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show delivers a high-impact, real-time analysis of breaking global events, with a strong focus on the escalating conflict between Israel and Iran. The hour opens with in-depth coverage of Israel’s unprecedented airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities and military targets, described as a “preemptive strike” aimed at dismantling Iran’s nuclear capabilities and the IRGC leadership. Reporting live from Israel, CNN’s Scott Jennings joins the show to provide firsthand insights from Tiberias, highlighting the calm resilience of Israeli citizens amid heightened tensions and missile alerts. The hosts and Jennings emphasize the strategic brilliance of the operation, crediting President Donald Trump for his pivotal role in supporting Israel and issuing a clear 60-day ultimatum to Iran—an ultimatum that culminated in this decisive military action. Jennings underscores the operation’s success as a historic moment in modern warfare, likening it to “Pager 2.0,” and praises the collaboration between Israeli intelligence and U.S. leadership. The conversation shifts to the political fallout in the U.S., where President Trump’s strong stance on immigration and national security continues to dominate headlines. His recent Truth Social post targeting California Governor Gavin Newsom and the Biden administration’s immigration policies is dissected, along with legal battles over Trump’s deployment of the National Guard in Los Angeles. The hour also features a compelling interview with Ben Shapiro, who offers a strategic breakdown of the Israeli strikes, the weakened state of Iran’s military infrastructure, and the broader implications for Middle East geopolitics. Shapiro discusses the potential collapse of the Iranian regime, the regional realignment favoring Israel, and the muted response from Iran’s allies. He also critiques the Democratic Party’s internal struggles, particularly around issues like gender in sports and the influence of radical leftist factions. Additional segments include commentary on Senator Alex Padilla’s controversial behavior during a press conference, with reactions from media personalities like Stephen A. Smith, and a humorous critique of the senator’s political theatrics. The hosts also reflect on their recent meeting with President Trump in the Oval Office, sharing behind-the-scenes impressions of his leadership and demeanor just hours before the Israeli strikes.

Hour 3 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show delivers a powerful and timely discussion centered on breaking geopolitical developments, exclusive insights from the White House, and a major policy shift by President Donald Trump. This hour kicks off with Clay and Buck recounting their recent visit to the West Wing, where they met with President Trump, JD Vance, and other key figures. The hosts describe a confident and energized atmosphere within the Trump administration, highlighting the President’s relaxed demeanor and his pride in recent Oval Office renovations and a new outdoor dining patio project. The central political headline of the hour is President Trump’s official termination of the California electric vehicle (EV) mandate. Trump’s announcement, made during a press conference and emphasized in his conversation with Clay and Buck, marks a significant rollback of federal support for California’s aggressive EV regulations. The hosts explain that this move restores consumer choice in the auto market and protects the U.S. auto industry from what they describe as “Green New Deal insanity.” The repeal affects 17 states that had adopted California’s standards, representing 30% of the U.S. vehicle market. Simultaneously, the hour is dominated by real-time coverage of escalating conflict in the Middle East. The hosts provide live updates on Iran’s missile retaliation against Israel following Israel’s precision strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities. They analyze the strategic implications of the Israeli operation, calling it one of the most successful military actions in modern history. The conversation includes commentary on the effectiveness of Israel’s Iron Dome defense system and the broader geopolitical consequences of Iran’s weakened military posture. A poignant segment features an interview with Yael Eckstein, President of the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews (IFCJ), who shares her personal experience of being turned back mid-flight due to the Israeli airspace closure. She offers emotional insights into the Israeli public’s mindset, the role of universal military service, and the critical humanitarian work being done by IFCJ during the crisis. Her remarks underscore the existential threat Israel faces and the unity of its people in defense of their nation. The hour concludes with lighter moments, including listener feedback on Clay’s attire during the White House visit and playful banter about Buck’s upcoming business trip to the French Riviera.
