Tudor welcomes James Blair, former Trump 2024 campaign and RNC political director, for an in-depth discussion on the Republican midterm strategy, the impact of President Donald Trump’s tax cuts, and how GOP messaging on affordability and economic recovery is resonating with voters. Blair outlines key policy wins, including eliminating taxes on tips, overtime, and Social Security, and previews upcoming proposals aimed at restoring prosperity after years of inflation under Democrat leadership. He emphasizes Trump’s role as the party’s leader and “get-out-the-vote machine,” highlighting his recent visits to battleground districts and the importance of contrasting Republican solutions with Democrat failures.

Pete Stauber (R-MN) joins to expose a massive fraud scandal in Minnesota, estimated between $9–$11 billion, spanning housing, Medicaid, childcare, and transportation programs under Governor Tim Walz. Stauber calls for accountability, detailing how whistleblowers were silenced and how the Trump administration is deploying federal agencies to investigate and prosecute those responsible. He warns about vulnerabilities in Minnesota’s election laws, including same-day registration and vouching practices, and criticizes policies granting benefits to illegal immigrants. Stauber underscores that Minnesotans—across party lines—are outraged and demand reform. The hour closes on an uplifting note, celebrating America’s Greatest Generation. Tudor shares her recent podcast interview with Irving Locker, a 101-year-old WWII veteran, and honors 104-year-old Staff Sergeant Dominick Critelli, who performed the national anthem at a New York Islanders game.

Hour 1 of today’s Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show, hosted by Tudor Dixon from the WOOD Radio Studios in Grand Rapids, Michigan, dives deep into President Donald Trump’s economic agenda, energy independence, and emerging technology concerns. The program opens with an exclusive interview with U.S. Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick, highlighting the administration’s push to restore American manufacturing, lower energy costs, and boost consumer confidence. Key Economic Topics Covered: Affordability Wins: Gas, energy, and prescription drug prices are down, and interest rates have eased—but consumer confidence remains low. Lutnick outlines strategies to reverse this trend. Energy Policy: The Trump administration is prioritizing lower electricity costs by requiring data centers to contribute 10% of their power to local grids, turning tech infrastructure into a community asset. Reversing Climate Narratives: Lutnick criticizes past Democratic climate policies and explains how Trump’s “Drill Baby Drill” approach will expand oil and gas production, reopen coal plants, and leverage Alaska’s 635 million acres of oil reserves to secure U.S. energy dominance. Interest Rate Reform: Trump is considering replacing Fed Chair Jay Powell by May 2026 to bring rates closer to global norms, aiming to ease housing costs and restore the American dream of homeownership. Economic Growth Forecast: With $18 trillion committed to rebuilding America, GDP growth is projected to hit 5% next year and 6% the following year, driving job creation, higher wages, and tax relief (including no tax on tips, overtime, and Social Security). Manufacturing & Jobs: The administration’s plan to bring manufacturing back to the U.S. includes massive investments in advanced manufacturing and semiconductors—up to $700 billion nationwide, with flagship projects like a $20 billion Arizona semiconductor plant employing 3,000 technicians. High-paying technical jobs (starting at $75K and reaching $200K) will not require traditional college degrees, signaling a new era of skilled trades and automation-driven careers. Automotive Industry & Tariffs: Trump’s trade policies mandate automakers to build in America, increasing competition and lowering car prices. Financing incentives, such as tax-deductible car loans, aim to make vehicles more affordable for consumers. Technology & Privacy Concerns: Police Drones Later in Hour 1, Tudor Dixon and Kyle Olson tackle the rise of police drones in states like California, Ohio, and Louisiana. These drones can monitor public spaces, issue tickets, and interact with citizens—raising alarms about privacy rights, potential weaponization, and the expansion of a “police state.” The discussion warns of future risks involving AI, facial recognition, and pre-crime technology, urging listeners to stay vigilant as laws lag behind rapid tech adoption. Welfare Fraud Allegations in Ohio The hour closes with explosive claims of systemic welfare fraud in Ohio, following similar scandals in Minnesota. Attorney and Republican strategist Mehek Cook details allegations involving home healthcare scams, where individuals reportedly earn $70K–$90K annually through fraudulent claims. The conversation highlights: Lack of state audits and enforcement. Billions allegedly funneled back to Somalia. Political implications, including viral videos of elected officials prioritizing Somali interests over U.S. taxpayers. Calls for federal forensic audits, DOJ involvement, and accountability to protect taxpayer dollars. Audience callers express outrage, demanding penalties for states involved and praising citizen journalists for exposing corruption. The segment frames fraud as a national issue tied to immigration loopholes, political exploitation, and economic strain, reinforcing the Trump administration’s commitment to transparency and reform.Follow Clay & Buck on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/clayandbuckSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hour 2 of The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show with Tudor Dixon dives into major political and cultural flashpoints shaping America today. Broadcasting alongside Kyle Olson, Dixon opens with breaking news on Nancy Pelosi’s retirement announcement, ending her 39-year tenure in Congress. The discussion explores Pelosi’s legacy, her controversial leadership style, and her infamous State of the Union moment tearing up President Trump’s speech. Dixon and Olson analyze Pelosi’s influence on Democratic Party dynamics, her failure to pass the torch, and the rise of progressive figures like AOC, who now leads polls over Gavin Newsom for the 2028 presidential nomination. They also spotlight the looming battle for Pelosi’s San Francisco seat, featuring candidates like Scott Wiener, and what this means for the future of the Democratic Party. The hour then pivots to explosive revelations about massive welfare fraud scandals in Minnesota, Maine, and Ohio, allegedly involving Somali-run organizations and billions in taxpayer dollars. Tudor introduces investigative reporting by Nick Shirley, exposing fraudulent daycare operations and tracing funds to extremist groups overseas. Guest Steve Robinson, editor-in-chief of The Maine Wire, joins to detail systemic Medicaid fraud, taxpayer-funded political outreach, and how these schemes allegedly bolster Democratic voter operations. The conversation underscores the intersection of immigration policy, election integrity, and government accountability, raising questions about non-citizen voting and the role of state officials in enabling corruption. Listeners also hear breaking news from Ohio linking Somali community leaders to political influence and tax scandals, plus a deep dive into California’s homelessness crisis, where billions are spent without solving root causes like addiction and mental health. Dixon and Olson argue these issues reflect a broader pattern of mismanagement and corruption across blue states. The segment closes with passionate listener calls from Ohio and Georgia, amplifying concerns about assimilation, Medicaid expansion fraud dating back to Obamacare, and the urgent need for reform under President Trump’s administration. Hour 2 delivers hard-hitting analysis on Pelosi’s exit, progressive power struggles, welfare fraud, election security, and cultural battles, making it a must-listen for anyone tracking the future of American politics.Follow Clay & Buck on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/clayandbuckSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hour 1 of today’s Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show, guest-hosted by John Kobylt from KFI Los Angeles, delivers an unfiltered deep dive into California’s ongoing crisis and the political future of Governor Gavin Newsom, who is widely viewed as the leading Democratic contender for the 2028 presidential race. Kobylt paints a vivid picture of California’s decline, describing how once-idyllic cities like Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Santa Monica have become plagued by homelessness, rampant drug addiction, and untreated mental illness. He explains how Newsom’s “Housing First” policy has failed, pouring billions into housing projects without addressing root causes like addiction and psychiatric care, while corruption siphons off much of the funding. Kobylt also highlights California’s one-party rule, noting decades of Democratic dominance and the absence of meaningful opposition, which has led to unchecked policies and severe COVID lockdowns. He warns listeners about Newsom’s character, illustrating his tendency to lie and shift narratives through a detailed account of the Palisades Fire disaster. Kobylt recounts how Newsom falsely claimed to be on the phone with President Joe Biden during a confrontation with a distraught mother, later changing his story multiple times. The segment exposes further mismanagement, including state interference that allowed a small fire to reignite into a massive blaze—all to protect an endangered plant species—resulting in thousands of homes destroyed. The hour closes with Kobylt’s personal experience during the fire, describing a complete breakdown of public services that forced residents to hire armed security for protection. He underscores California’s skyrocketing gas prices—averaging $4.29 per gallon compared to $2.23 in Oklahoma—driven by climate-change-driven tax policies that disproportionately hurt working families. Kobylt promises more revelations in Hour 2, including an interview with Katie Grimes of California Globe to discuss Newsom’s national ambitions and the systemic corruption behind California’s decline. Key Topics Covered in Hour 1: • Gavin Newsom’s rise as the top Democratic candidate for 2028 • California’s homelessness crisis and failed “Housing First” policy • Rampant drug addiction and untreated mental illness in major cities • One-party rule and lack of accountability in California politics • The Palisades Fire scandal: lies, mismanagement, and environmental policy failures • Personal account of lawlessness and survival during the fire • California’s highest-in-the-nation gas prices and climate tax burdens This hour is a must-listen for anyone tracking Gavin Newsom’s political trajectory, California’s progressive policies, and their real-world consequences.   Make sure you never miss a second of the show by subscribing to the Clay Travis & Buck Sexton show podcast wherever you get your podcasts!  ihr.fm/3InlkL8 For the latest updates from Clay and Buck, visit our website https://www.clayandbuck.com/   Connect with Clay Travis and Buck Sexton:  X - https://x.com/clayandbuck FB - https://www.facebook.com/ClayandBuck/ IG - https://www.instagram.com/clayandbuck/ YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/clayandbuck Rumble - https://rumble.com/c/ClayandBuck TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@clayandbuckFollow Clay & Buck on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/clayandbuckSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hour 2 of The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show dives deep into California politics and the national implications of Governor Gavin Newsom’s record as he positions himself as a leading Democratic presidential contender. Guest host John Kobylt from KFI Los Angeles warns listeners about Newsom’s policies and their disastrous impact on California. Joining the conversation is veteran journalist Katy Grimes from CaliforniaGlobe.com, who has chronicled Newsom’s tenure for years. This hour exposes massive government waste and corruption scandals, including: Billions lost in homelessness programs: At least $24–$37 billion vanished into nonprofits and NGOs with little accountability, while homelessness worsened. High-speed rail boondoggle: A project sold to voters as a $33 billion statewide bullet train now sits unfinished after 18 years and $17 billion spent—with no track laid and costs projected to soar past $130 billion. COVID-era unemployment fraud: Over $32 billion in taxpayer money was stolen through lax oversight, with funds even reaching death row inmates and overseas scammers. Former California labor chief Julie Su, tied to the scandal, later became Biden’s Acting Labor Secretary. Failed progressive mandates: Newsom’s electric vehicle mandate and climate-change-driven gas taxes have driven fuel prices sky-high (averaging $4.29 in California vs. $1.93 in Oklahoma), while the state lacks the infrastructure to support EV adoption. Katy Grimes also highlights California’s Democratic supermajority, media complicity, and why Newsom has never faced tough scrutiny at home—something that will change on the national stage. The discussion revisits his debate meltdown against Ron DeSantis, predicting similar outcomes if he faces GOP contenders like JD Vance or Marco Rubio. Listeners also hear personal stories illustrating California’s decline: skyrocketing crime, homelessness, and quality-of-life deterioration driving residents to flee the state. John Kobylt underscores how progressive policies have “disemboweled” California, turning paradise into chaos.

Hour 3 dives into explosive revelations surrounding a massive fraud scandal in Minnesota, where billions in taxpayer dollars were allegedly siphoned through fake nonprofits and childcare centers. Guest host John Kobylt from KFI Radio leads the discussion, joined by Joe Khalil of NewsNation, who provides the latest updates on the viral investigation that has captured national attention. A 42-minute video by independent journalist Nick Shirley, now surpassing 116 million views, exposed empty daycare facilities that received millions in state and federal funds—raising serious questions about oversight under Governor Tim Walz. The conversation highlights ongoing probes by the Minnesota legislature, the House Oversight Committee, and even DHS, which has launched door-to-door searches at suspected fraud sites. Beyond Minnesota, John shifts focus to California’s deepening crises under Governor Gavin Newsom. He outlines shocking statistics: California leads the nation in inflation, unemployment, homelessness, and tax burdens, including the highest income, gas, and sales taxes. Despite record spending, the state suffers from crumbling infrastructure, underperforming schools, and depleted public safety resources—issues compounded by sanctuary policies and billions spent on healthcare for illegal immigrants. John warns these policies could become a national flashpoint as Newsom positions himself for higher office, contrasting them with President Trump’s decisive border actions. The hour closes with a fiery critique of California’s proposed wealth tax targeting billionaires, which John argues would accelerate the exodus of high earners and devastate state revenue. He challenges progressive narratives demonizing innovators like Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk, emphasizing the economic consequences of punitive taxation. Key Topics Covered in Hour 3: • Minnesota daycare fraud scandal and Somali nonprofit schemes • Viral Nick Shirley investigation and its political fallout • DHS enforcement actions and congressional oversight • California’s economic decline: taxes, homelessness, and infrastructure failures • Illegal immigration costs and sanctuary state policies • Gavin Newsom’s healthcare spending and budget deficit • Proposed wealth tax and its impact on California’s future • Broader implications for national politics under President Trump’s administration   Make sure you never miss a second of the show by subscribing to the Clay Travis & Buck Sexton show podcast wherever you get your podcasts!  ihr.fm/3InlkL8 For the latest updates from Clay and Buck, visit our website https://www.clayandbuck.com/   Connect with Clay Travis and Buck Sexton:  X - https://x.com/clayandbuck FB - https://www.facebook.com/ClayandBuck/ IG - https://www.instagram.com/clayandbuck/ YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/clayandbuck Rumble - https://rumble.com/c/ClayandBuck TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@clayandbuckFollow Clay & Buck on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/clayandbuckSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
