The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show Daily Review With Clay and Buck - Jun 02 2025
Good vs. Evil A focus on national security and immigration enforcement under President Donald Trump, highlighting a major ICE operation dubbed “Operation Patriot,” which targeted over 1,500 high-value criminal illegal aliens. Sexton praises the Trump administration’s proactive stance on border security and law enforcement, contrasting it with previous Democratic policies. The show then shifts to international affairs, covering a significant Ukrainian drone strike on Russian bombers, which people are calling Ukraine's Hezbollah pager moment. He emphasizes the strategic implications and the evolving nature of modern warfare. A disturbing antisemitic attack in Boulder, Colorado, where an illegal immigrant from Egypt allegedly threw incendiary devices at a vigil for Israeli hostages. Sexton links the attack to broader concerns about immigration enforcement and national security, reinforcing President Trump’s warnings about the risks posed by unchecked illegal immigration. Social Engineering Title IV A major segment is dedicated to a controversial incident in California where a biological male identifying as female won the state girl’s high school track championship. Sexton critiques the media’s coverage, particularly CNN’s framing of the issue, and features commentary from attorney Julie Hamill, who argues that such policies violate Title IX and federal civil rights law. The discussion underscores the Trump administration’s position on protecting women’s sports and enforcing legal definitions of sex and gender. Interview featuring Julie Hamill, attorney and president of the California Justice Center, who critiques California’s gender identity policies and their conflict with federal Title IX protections. Hamill explains how California’s AB 1266 and similar laws undermine sex-based rights for women and girls in sports and education, sparking viral attention after her CNN appearance. The conversation emphasizes the legal and societal implications of redefining gender in law, with a focus on protecting biological women’s rights in athletics and public spaces. The segment also explores the broader political ramifications, including the role of President Donald Trump’s administration in challenging these policies and advocating for a return to sex-based legal definitions. The hosts and Hamill discuss the need for federal legislation to clarify Title IX, the pending lawsuits against California’s gender laws, and the cultural resistance to acknowledging biological differences in policy debates. The Future of Warfare Transitioning to international affairs, the show analyzes a major Ukrainian drone strike on Russian airbases, highlighting the strategic and financial impact on Russia’s military infrastructure. Buck Sexton, drawing on his CIA and intelligence background, frames the attack as a glimpse into the future of warfare—dominated by drones, AI, and autonomous systems. The discussion underscores President Trump’s efforts to broker a ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine, emphasizing his leadership and diplomatic strategy amid global instability. Sen. Markwayne Mullin on the Big Beautiful Bill An in-depth interview with Oklahoma Senator Markwayne Mullen, who provides exclusive insights into the much-anticipated “big beautiful bill.” This legislation, a cornerstone of the Trump administration’s economic agenda, aims to slash $1.6 trillion in deficit spending immediately, marking a significant departure from traditional 10-year budget cut plans. Senator Mullen outlines how this bill aligns with key Trump-era policies, including eliminating taxes on tips, overtime, and Social Security, and emphasizes the importance of fiscal responsibility and reconciliation to implement these reforms. The conversation also explores the political divide within the GOP, with Mullen addressing concerns from fellow Republicans like Senators Rand Paul and Ron Johnson. He defends the necessity of raising the debt ceiling to stabilize the economy, likening it to investing in a failing business to ensure long-term growth. Mullen projects that with sound policy, innovation, and responsible governance, the U.S. could balance the budget within three years. Listeners are treated to a lighter segment as Senator Mullen, a former MMA fighter, shares his admiration for legends like Jon Jones and Randy Couture, and names “Bloodsport” as the greatest martial arts film of all time. The hour concludes with a humorous exchange about sailors’ spending habits.
