Daily Review with Clay and Buck - Aug 6 2025

The Party of Envy  President Trump’s remarks on Vice President JD Vance, suggesting him as the likely heir to the MAGA movement. Trump’s comments spark speculation about a JD Vance–Marco Rubio 2028 ticket, which Clay and Buck argue could consolidate Republican support early. The conversation explores the GOP’s deep bench of potential leaders, contrasting it with what they describe as the Democrats’ lack of viable candidates. The hosts launch into a sharp critique of the Democratic Party, portraying it as a coalition of resentment, envy, and victimhood. They argue that Democrats have abandoned meritocracy and individual excellence, instead embracing identity politics and cultural decline. This includes commentary on Sydney Sweeney, media bias, and the lack of Democrat voices defending her against extreme accusations. Big Balls Attacked  Violent crime in Washington, DC, alarming homicide statistics compared to global cities like Lima, Nairobi, and Mexico City. The hosts highlight a recent carjacking incident that involved a former DOGE employee (Big Balls) by a youth mob, and Trump’s call for potential federal intervention in DC governance. They argue that fear of being labeled racist prevents meaningful law enforcement reform, despite disproportionate crime rates in certain communities. Clay and Buck emphasize the need for common-sense policies, law enforcement accountability, and cultural renewal. They advocate for restoring safety and pride in America’s capital city and call out political hypocrisy on issues like gun control and defunding the police. The episode also touches on Howard Stern’s rumored exit from SiriusXM, criticizing his shift toward COVID hysteria and anti-Trump rhetoric. The hosts suggest his influence has waned, and his show no longer resonates with audiences. TX Gov. Greg Abbott  Texas Governor Greg Abbott joins the show for a deep dive into Texas redistricting, where Governor Abbott outlines the potential addition of five Republican congressional seats and criticizes Democrat lawmakers for fleeing the state to avoid legislative duties. He highlights the hypocrisy of Democrat-led gerrymandering in states like Illinois, California, New York, and Massachusetts, while defending Texas’s efforts to reflect shifting voter demographics—particularly the growing support among Hispanic and Black voters for Republican candidates. Governor Abbott also discusses legal actions taken against absent Democrat legislators, including Texas Supreme Court proceedings and statewide arrest warrants, emphasizing the importance of accountability and quorum in governance. The conversation shifts to the impact of recent flooding in Kerrville, Texas, where Abbott details ongoing search and rescue operations, disaster recovery efforts, and the push for new legislation to prevent future tragedies. In a lighter segment, the show pivots to college football, with Abbott praising the Texas Longhorns as the top-ranked team in the nation. He previews their upcoming season opener against Ohio State, spotlighting Arch Manning and the team’s elite defense. Miranda Devine New York Post columnist Miranda Devine, who joins the program to analyze the latest developments surrounding the Russia collusion hoax and the broader implications for the Biden administration and deep state actors. Devine discusses House Oversight Chair James Comer’s aggressive subpoenas targeting former attorneys general and high-profile Democrats, including Hillary and Bill Clinton. She emphasizes that Donald Trump’s second term is marked by a shift from mercy to accountability, driven by years of political persecution and revelations about intelligence manipulation under the Obama administration. The conversation highlights Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard’s role in exposing the origins of the Russia hoax and the alleged involvement of Obama-era intelligence officials like John Brennan, James Clapper, and James Comey. Devine suggests that Trump’s Justice Department, backed by figures like Pam Bondi, Kash Patel, and Senator Chuck Grassley, is preparing for potential indictments, with multiple grand juries possibly being empaneled in Florida and Washington, D.C. The hosts and Devine explore the legal avenues available, including perjury and conspiracy charges, and discuss the public’s growing demand for justice and deterrence against future political weaponization. Clay and Buck also take aim at mainstream media outlets such as The New York Times and The Washington Post, criticizing their refusal to retract or acknowledge false reporting related to the Russia investigation. Devine calls for the return of Pulitzer Prizes awarded for coverage now widely discredited, comparing the situation to the Jason Blair scandal. The hosts argue that legacy media has lost credibility and suggest that their curated audiences are resistant to truth and accountability.

On this episode of Verdict with Ted Cruz, Senator Cruz and Ben Ferguson discuss: 🕵️‍♂️ Whistleblower Claims A whistleblower from the Obama-era intelligence community alleges they were pressured and silenced when they tried to challenge the narrative that Russia interfered in the 2016 election. The whistleblower claims: Intelligence assessments were manipulated. Critical context was omitted from the 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA). There was pressure to align with a predetermined narrative favoring claims of Russian interference. Other foreign influences were ignored. Tulsi Gabbard is cited as having shared and supported the whistleblower’s claims on social media. The hosts argue this supports the idea that the “Russia hoax” was a politically motivated effort to undermine Donald Trump. 📚 Kamala Harris Critique The episode also critiques Kamala Harris’s appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert to promote her new book, 107 Days. The hosts mock: Her explanation for not running for governor of California. Her comments on democracy, the Supreme Court, and the Department of Education. Her perceived lack of leadership and clarity about who leads the Democratic Party. They argue that Harris and the Democratic Party are out of touch with voters and dismissive of democratic outcomes they disagree with. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Obama Won't Be Indicted Deep dive into the explosive developments surrounding the Russia collusion investigation, now reignited by a grand jury probe into Obama-era officials. This hour centers on the Department of Justice's referral and the legal implications of potential indictments stemming from what the hosts describe as a decade-long political conspiracy aimed at undermining President Donald Trump and the MAGA movement. Clay and Buck analyze the statute of limitations, the legal viability of conspiracy charges, and the strategic importance of grand jury venue selection—highlighting the difference between a DC-based jury, which they argue is politically biased, and a South Florida jury, which could offer a more neutral ground. They reference insights from Miranda Devine, who suggests that continued cover-ups may extend the legal window for prosecution. Eye for an Eye?The political ramifications of pursuing charges, even if convictions are unlikely. The hosts debate whether the Republican legal strategy should mirror the aggressive tactics used by Democrats, emphasizing the concept that “the process is the punishment.” They caution listeners to temper expectations, noting that presidential immunity likely shields Barack Obama from criminal liability, despite public frustration.Listeners from across the country, including law enforcement veterans and legal experts, call in to share perspectives on perjury, RICO, and wire fraud, with many expressing skepticism about the likelihood of successful prosecutions. The show underscores the importance of a public reckoning, even if legal outcomes fall short, and stresses the need for political accountability. Trump Happened The Trump administration’s economic trajectory, AI-driven investment optimism, and ongoing legal and political battles, all framed within the broader context of media bias, historical accountability, and public trust in institutions.  The segment opens with a strong endorsement of the Trump 2.0 economy, highlighting early signs of growth and the administration’s push for 100% expensing, which is projected to supercharge business investment. Clay and Buck explore the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) data integrity, citing declining response rates and questioning the reliability of monthly job reports. This leads to a broader discussion on economic indicators, Federal Reserve policy, and the anticipated housing market thaw. A major theme is the AI revolution, with comparisons to the railroad boom of the 1880s. The hosts emphasize that AI investment has already surpassed the dot-com era, positioning it as a transformative force in American industry and productivity. Everything is the Holocaust Texas State Rep. Jolanda Jones, who fled the state to Illinois, compares redistricting to the Holocaust, which Clay and Buck critique as historically ignorant and hyperbolic. The segment also includes commentary on fashion choices, Kamala Harris, and media narratives, blending serious political discourse with light-hearted banter.
