The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show Hour 2 - They Will Do It Again
Hour 2 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show delivers a hard-hitting discussion on politics, media bias, and Big Tech censorship. The hour opens with a deep dive into Kamala Harris’s controversial new book and her headline-making interview with Rachel Maddow. Clay and Buck analyze Harris’s explanation for choosing Tim Walz as her running mate, revealing her claim that selecting Pete Buttigieg would have been “too risky” because of his sexuality.
The hosts argue this exposes the identity politics contradictions within the Democratic Party, particularly tensions between progressive ideals and the voting behavior of key demographic groups. They also explore Harris’s political future, her refusal to rule out a 2028 presidential run, and why Gavin Newsom’s lack of support signals internal Democratic fractures.
The conversation then pivots to Big Tech censorship and free speech, focusing on explosive revelations that YouTube admitted to suppressing conservative voices at the request of the Biden administration during the COVID-19 pandemic. Clay shares firsthand experiences of demonetization and content removal for questioning mask mandates and vaccine policies—positions later validated by science.
Buck underscores how these actions amounted to government-backed censorship, costing conservative media companies hundreds of millions of dollars and undermining open debate. The hosts criticize the Supreme Court’s failure to address this First Amendment violation, warning that these practices could return under future Democratic administrations.
Additional segments highlight the contrast between the media’s outrage over Jimmy Kimmel’s brief suspension and its silence on systemic censorship by tech giants. Clay and Buck argue that while Kimmel missed four shows, countless conservative creators faced long-term suppression and financial harm. They also discuss algorithmic shadow-banning, the lingering effects of being placed on YouTube’s “naughty list,” and why online platforms now function as the modern public square.
