Buck shares practical advice for navigating fractured relationships, rebuilding trust, and confronting the psychological pull of “special knowledge.” Later, Karol sits down with Emil Pitkin to discuss his new book, The Penny Is Gone: Meditations of a Soviet Jew, a moving account of Soviet Jewish persecution, resilience, and the lessons history offers in today’s fight against anti-Semitism. Together they explore family legacy, freedom, and why preserving truth matters more than ever.  Follow Clay & Buck on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/clayandbuckSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

History of May Day Buck Sexton hosts solo and opens with a strong focus on the significance of May Day (International Workers’ Day), tying its historical roots in labor movements and socialist revolutions to modern-day demonstrations in the United States. He highlights ongoing teacher union protests and “sickouts” in states like North Carolina, framing them as part of a broader ideological movement aligned with left-wing labor activism. This segment emphasizes concerns about teachers unions, public education, and taxpayer-funded labor actions, positioning them within a larger critique of socialism in modern America. A major portion of Hour 1 centers on an extended ideological discussion of communism, socialism, and cultural influence, using George Orwell’s works—especially Animal Farm and 1984—as a lens. Buck criticizes a newly released Hollywood adaptation of Animal Farm, arguing that it alters the original anti-communist message and reflects what he describes as a broader effort to reshape cultural narratives. This leads into a wider conversation about education, curriculum choices, and generational awareness of political ideology, with emphasis on the importance of teaching historical lessons about totalitarianism and collectivism. Massive COVID Coverup Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin discusses a recent Senate hearing on COVID-19 vaccine oversight and alleged government misconduct. Johnson outlines claims that federal health agencies failed to adequately respond to vaccine-related safety signals, arguing that internal data flagged potential adverse events that were not publicly emphasized. The conversation frames this as a broader issue of government transparency, public health accountability, and media coverage, with criticism directed at what is described as limited reporting from mainstream outlets. The discussion then shifts to ongoing tensions with Iran and U.S. foreign policy strategy, particularly focusing on the potential economic and political impact of the conflict. Senator Johnson and Buck analyze how oil prices, gas costs, and geopolitical risk could influence U.S. voters ahead of upcoming elections, especially in key battleground states. The segment emphasizes concerns about energy markets, the Strait of Hormuz, and broader Middle East stability, while also highlighting optimism among some Republicans that decisive action could lead to long-term global security improvements. Senator Johnson argues that a major priority should be eliminating waste and fraudulent payments in federal programs. The conversation references estimates of large-scale fraud in programs like Medicaid and Medicare and highlights ongoing efforts to use technology and AI-based systems to audit government spending more effectively. This ties into a broader critique of federal budget growth, national debt, and bureaucratic inefficiency. The Truth About Racism Buck breaks down a recent Supreme Court ruling related to congressional redistricting and the Voting Rights Act, focusing on race-based districting. Buck critiques the use of race in drawing political districts, arguing that affirmative action-style policies and identity-based governance should be phased out, and frames the ruling as part of a larger national debate over equality, civil rights law, and political representation.  The program also touches on immigration policy and border security, with commentary on the challenges of addressing millions of migrants who entered the U.S. in recent years. Buck raises questions about enforcement, deportation strategy, and the long-term impact of current immigration levels, emphasizing the complexity of resolving the issue under existing legal frameworks. Violent Lefty "Victims"  Buck interviews journalist Savannah Hernandez, who recounts a violent incident while covering an anti-ICE protest in Minneapolis. Hernandez details how she was surrounded, harassed, and physically assaulted by multiple protesters while attempting to report on the event. The discussion explores press freedom, political protest culture, and the rise of political violence, with Buck framing the incident as part of a broader trend of hostility toward journalists and ideological opponents. The segment also examines the legal aftermath, including federal charges brought against alleged attackers, contrasting federal intervention with what is described as more limited action at the local level. The conversation expands into a broader analysis of immigration protests and political activism, with Hernandez describing the evolving makeup of protest movements, including continued influence from groups associated with prior movements such as Black Lives Matter. The discussion emphasizes concerns about radical activism, law enforcement response, and media coverage, highlighting ongoing tensions surrounding immigration enforcement, ICE operations, and public demonstrations.

1. King Charles III’s Visit to the U.S. King Charles addresses a joint session of Congress, becoming only the second British monarch to do so (after Queen Elizabeth II in 1991). The visit is symbolic of deep historical and constitutional ties between the U.S. and the U.K., especially as America approaches its 250th anniversary. Shared Anglo-American legal traditions (Magna Carta, English Bill of Rights, John Locke). The irony of honoring a British monarch given America’s revolutionary origins. King Charles is portrayed as: Surprisingly humorous and personable, using dry British wit. Well-received across party lines, including Democrats who previously opposed “monarchy symbolism.” President Trump is quoted praising the King’s speech and leveraging the visit to reinforce themes of heritage, liberty, and national identity. 2. FBI Raids on Alleged Somali Fraud Operations The FBI conducts 22 raids in Minnesota, reportedly targeting childcare centers accused of defrauding federal programs. Allegations include: Billing for childcare services not provided. Large-scale misuse of taxpayer funds. Claims that some funds were diverted abroad (including alleged terrorism links—presented as accusations, not proven facts). Specific political figures (e.g., Ilhan Omar, Governor Tim Walz) are accused by the speakers of: Ignoring, enabling, or benefiting politically from the alleged fraud. Ben and the Senator praise the Department of Justice and Trump administration for aggressive enforcement, framing it as overdue accountability. Welfare recipients owned luxury vehicles (Tesla, Porsche, Lamborghini, Ferrari, etc.). Exploited eligibility loopholes like Broad-Based Categorical Eligibility (BBCE). Weak identity and asset verification enabling fraud. The welfare system is: “Fraud by design,” incentivized to maximize dependency rather than enforce eligibility. Poorly monitored by Democratic-led states. The narrative argues for tighter controls, asset checks, and stricter enforcement. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

What does the Supreme Court’s latest ruling on redistricting mean for the future of American elections? On this episode of The Truth with Lisa Boothe, Lisa is joined by Zack Smith of the The Heritage Foundation to break down the Court’s major decision striking down Louisiana’s second majority-Black congressional district as an unconstitutional racial gerrymander. They unpack the clash between the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, what this means for redistricting battles in states like Texas, California, Virginia, and Florida, and how it could impact congressional control in the upcoming midterms. Plus, they discuss the growing legal war over political vs. racial gerrymandering, the role of census data, and why this decision could trigger a nationwide redistricting domino effect. Is this a win for equal protection under the Constitution—or the beginning of a new political arms race?Follow Clay & Buck on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/clayandbuckSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
