Clay Travis & Buck Sexton dive into the aftermath of Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District special election, where Republican Matt Van Epps secured a decisive nine-point victory over Democrat Afton Bain. Clay and Buck break down why this off-calendar election mattered, emphasizing low turnout—roughly half of a typical congressional race—and how Democrats hoped to flip a Trump-leaning district but failed. The hosts credit grassroots awareness and strong support from President Donald Trump and Speaker Mike Johnson for the win, reinforcing a key takeaway: “Running with Trump is how you win.” Van Epps himself echoed this sentiment in his victory speech, signaling the GOP’s strategy heading into 2026. The discussion also explores voter behavior in special elections, contrasting Republican voters’ busy family lives with Democrats’ identity-driven activism. Clay shares personal insights on living in Williamson County, Tennessee, and why he refuses to support Davidson County after its COVID policies. Buck adds humor about avoiding a “communist dystopia” in Clay’s district, while callers from Alabama, Florida, and Michigan weigh in on the race’s significance and the broader political landscape, including battleground states like Michigan. Congressman Jim Jordan joins the show, he outlines the GOP’s legislative priorities before the 2026 campaign season kicks into high gear. Jordan emphasizes healthcare reform focused on choice and competition, rejecting expanded Obamacare subsidies, and highlights the need for tax cuts and regulatory reform to combat lingering inflation. He warns that despite progress under President Trump, prices remain painfully high for everyday Americans—a reality that could shape the 2026 midterm elections. Jordan also stresses the importance of passing a real budget, avoiding endless continuing resolutions, and protecting civil liberties during the upcoming FISA reauthorization, citing alarming revelations about government surveillance. Then the hosts tackle a major controversy in Minnesota—President Trump’s fiery remarks on the Somali fraud scandal, where scammers allegedly billed for 125 million fake meals under a child-feeding program, siphoning off billions in taxpayer funds. Clay and Buck dissect the cultural and political implications, questioning whether fear of appearing “xenophobic” allowed systemic fraud to flourish. They draw parallels to the UK’s grooming gang scandals and debate assimilation challenges, spotlighting cases where defendants cite Somali cultural norms as a defense in U.S. courts. This segment raises urgent questions about immigration policy, law enforcement, and cultural accountability.

Hour 3 of The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show kicks off with a victory lap over Matt Van Epps’ nine-point win in Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District, marking the final election of 2025 and setting the stage for the 2026 midterms. Clay and Buck analyze key takeaways: Democrats dominated blue states while Republicans held strong in red states, but the looming question remains—how will GOP turnout look without Trump on the ballot? The hosts highlight Trump’s achievements on border security and crime reduction, citing record deportations and plummeting violent crime rates in cities like Memphis and Washington, D.C., while predicting that affordability and inflation will define the next election cycle. The hour pivots to cultural and demographic trends, addressing fears that migration from blue states could “California” red states. Clay and Buck push back, citing data that COVID-era transplants to Florida, Texas, and Tennessee are making red states even redder, with Florida flipping from a Democrat registration advantage to a million-plus Republican lead. They mix in humor and generational slang, explaining terms like “Riz” and joking about “broccoli haircuts,” while engaging listeners on social platforms. In a major geopolitical segment, the hosts dissect reports that President Trump has given Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro until Friday to step down, amid rumors of back-channel negotiations and heightened U.S. military presence in the Caribbean. They debate whether regime change could stabilize Venezuela and curb illegal immigration, drawing historical parallels to Operation Just Cause and Noriega’s ouster in Panama. Caller reactions add depth, with strong opinions on U.S. intervention and its potential impact on Latin America. Hour 3 also features lively listener calls and VIP emails on topics ranging from urban liberal sprawl in places like Spokane to lifestyle debates over warm vs. cold climates. Clay shares personal anecdotes about skiing mishaps and why he prefers après-ski culture over hitting the slopes, while Buck critiques the unrealistic portrayal of Montana winters in the hit series Yellowstone. The conversation closes with lighthearted banter about man cards, raccoons raiding liquor stores, and defending Buck’s cozy habits.
