Today Allie discusses James Talarico's victory in the Texas Democratic Senate primary, highlighting his controversial views and political strategies. Talarico, a former middle school teacher and current seminary student, has gained significant social media influence, with millions of followers on Instagram and TikTok. Despite his Christian background, he supports abortion, homosexuality, and transgenderism, and uses Scripture selectively to justify his positions. Allie traces the roots of Talarico's theology through liberation theology and the doctrinal drift of mainline Presbyterianism. Allie criticizes his theological interpretations and political stances, emphasizing the importance of pushing back against false teachings and promoting true Christian values over progressive compromises.

Chuck Todd breaks down the Texas primary results and finds a political landscape that should terrify the Republican establishment. Ken Paxton and John Cornyn are headed to a runoff on the GOP side, but the headline number is stunning: Democrats posted a higher overall vote total than Republicans in the Texas primary, a seismic signal in what has long been the country's biggest red state. He credits Talarico's viral Colbert moment with giving him a massive boost, notes that Latino voters broke decisively for Talarico over Jasmine Crockett — who ran an unconventional campaign and is unlikely to concede quickly — and argues that a Paxton vs. Talarico general election would genuinely put Texas in play. He walks through the strategic calculus: history favors Paxton in a runoff, Cornyn has outperformed polling but a Cornyn nomination would draw less national Democratic investment in the race, and Democrats should have the budget to compete in Texas regardless — because Texas is "nice to have" for Democrats but "must have" for Republicans, and if Democrats win even once there, it opens the floodgates. He also flags Dan Crenshaw losing after failing to secure Trump's endorsement, the razor-thin two-vote margin for the state senate campaign in North Carolina, and a broader pattern of bad developments piling up for the GOP — capped by Trump stoking voter skepticism with an unpopular Iran war. His verdict: this is the worst possible start to an election cycle for Republicans, because it's easy to start a war and very hard to end one. Then, Oscar-nominated filmmaker Josh Seftel joins the Chuck Toddcast to discuss All the Empty Rooms, his devastating Netflix documentary short that chronicles the untouched bedrooms of children killed in school shootings since Sandy Hook. Seftel describes a country that has grown numb to over 100 school shootings just this year — where the reporting cycle moves on before victims' stories can truly be told — and explains how the simple, visceral act of standing in a dead child's bedroom forces viewers to feel something that statistics never could. He reveals that many parents have kept these rooms exactly as their children left them, preserving even the smell, creating what amounts to sacred spaces frozen in time.Chuck draws the parallel to the decision to show Emmett Till's open casket, and Seftel argues these painful stories must be told regardless of how uncomfortable they make us, because imagery can be more powerful than the spoken word. What makes the film's approach so striking — and so strategically effective — is what it leaves out. The word "gun" is never mentioned, a deliberate choice to avoid triggering the political reflexes that shut down conversation before it starts. And it's working: Seftel shares that a Second Amendment enthusiast changed his mind after seeing the photos of empty rooms, and even a Sandy Hook denier reached out after watching. The film's funders didn't want to make money — they wanted to make change — and Netflix's global distribution has given it a massive reach. Seftel says the conversation has to start with one simple question — "How do we keep kids safe at school?" — and that the film intentionally got better as it got shorter, stripping away prescription and polemic to let the silence of those rooms do the work. Finally, Chuck lists his ToddCast Top 5 All-Time Texas statewide elections and answers listeners’ questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment.

The guest host for today's show is Brad Bannon. Brad runs Bannon Communications Research, a polling, message development and media firm which helps labor unions, progressive issue groups and Democratic candidates win public affairs and political campaigns. His show, 'Deadline D.C. with Brad Bannon,' airs every Monday from 3-4pm ET. Brad is first joined by CNN Military Analyst Col. Cedric Leighton (USAF-Ret.). The two discuss the military and foreign policy aspects of the Trump administration's airstrikes against Iran, the decision to kill their leader, whether the President had the authority to start this war despite being unprovoked, and more. Then, Sarah Jones, Editor-in-Chief of PoliticusUSA, is our special guest for the second half of the show. She and Brad cover the domestic repercussions of the new U.S. war with Iran, including rising gas prices, which experts say could surge to $4 dollars per gallon. Sarah also breaks down the Paramount purchase of Warner Bros., which includes CNN, and the dangers of media consolidation. This is the same group that recently blocked Stephen Colbert's interview with Democratic politician James Talarico.  Paramount was in position to do this because they recently acquired CBS News, the network that airs Colbert's show, in a recent merger deal.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Epstein Files Fallout The continued fallout from the newly released Epstein documents and the unprecedented spectacle of both Hillary Clinton and former President Bill Clinton being forced to testify. Clay and Buck break down why the leaked photo from Hillary’s deposition turned out to be meaningless, why the uproar over recording rules was a “tempest in a teapot,” and why none of the questioning is likely to lead to criminal charges. They argue that despite the media frenzy, no prosecutor—Republican or Democrat—has produced evidence that would support criminal cases against the political figures whose names appear in the files. The hosts spend significant time explaining why Democrats are now weaponizing the Epstein scandal as their primary political attack against President Trump, using insinuation and narrative tactics similar to the Steele dossier, Russia‑collusion accusations, and the Kavanaugh smear campaigns. Clay emphasizes two major points largely missing from media coverage: it was Trump’s Department of Justice that charged Epstein in 2019, and it was Biden’s DOJ that held the Epstein files privately for four years without any Democrats demanding transparency. Buck argues that if Biden’s DOJ had any evidence implicating Trump, they would have used it immediately—especially given their aggressive efforts to undermine and prosecute him in other areas. Texas Primary President Trump’s remarks to the media as he departs for Texas ahead of the state’s crucial upcoming primary. Clay announces that unlike Stephen Colbert, the show has officially invited Jasmine Crockett to appear and make her case directly to Texas voters—a point they frame as exposing the media’s bias and double standards after Colbert’s alleged interference benefiting James Talarico. The hosts emphasize that they are offering Crockett a platform specifically because the race matters and because voters deserve transparency. The hour then shifts sharply into listener reactions, starting with calls urging the audience to push Congress to pass the SAVE Act. Clay and Buck walk through the political math, explaining why the bill is effectively dead without the elimination of the Senate filibuster, something Republicans cannot achieve. Additional callers escalate the tension, accusing the hosts of “covering up for pedophiles” in their Epstein commentary—prompting Clay and Buck to push back forcefully. They reiterate that Epstein was unquestionably a criminal, that Trump’s Department of Justice charged him, and that if Democrats truly cared about justice, Biden’s DOJ wouldn’t have sat on the files quietly for four years. The hosts argue that many people in conservative media have monetized fear and conspiracy, convincing listeners that Epstein revelations will bring down powerful figures, but that the evidence simply doesn’t support those narratives. Cuba Takeover? The rapidly growing speculation about Cuba. Clay revisits his argument from the previous day that the United States should consider a “friendly takeover” of the island. Coincidentally, President Trump had just made remarks saying the Cuban government is in deep trouble and that a “friendly takeover” is possible—prompting Clay and Buck to discuss the geopolitical implications, including a pending Supreme Court case about U.S. business assets seized during the Cuban Revolution. They explore whether American corporations might seek to reclaim prime Cuban real estate and how a shift in Cuban leadership could weaken foreign adversaries like China and Russia. Several callers raise concerns about how Cuba’s political leanings might influence U.S. elections if it ever became a state, leading Buck to clarify that the debate is about territory—not statehood—and that Cuban American voters in the United States already lean strongly Republican. Hour 2 ends with broader geopolitical concerns, including the looming uncertainty around Iran, the possibility of destabilization following military strikes, and the strange, still‑developing story of a boat of Americans allegedly shot at by Cuban forces. Clay and Buck close by previewing their upcoming conversation with an Iran expert and noting that Epstein fallout, Cuba, and potential conflict in the Middle East are all shaping what may be one of the most consequential weekends in recent memory. Iran Predictions An extended interview on Iran with political commentator Debra Lea, fresh off a trip to Israel. She outlines why embassy drawdowns, evacuation timelines, and Tehran’s rhetoric suggest imminent U.S. airstrikes on Iran could come as soon as Sunday night but warns that any operation is likely to be limited strikes that “kick the can down the road” rather than achieve regime change. The hosts and Lea debate whether destroying nuclear facilities is feasible now that sites are hardened underground, how the Ayatollah’s succession bench and the regime’s 800,000‑person security apparatus blunt decapitation strategies, and why a long conflict would be politically perilous heading into the midterms. They also game out regional dynamics—Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Gulf states hedging as middlemen; U.S. assets repositioned closer to Israel; and the possibility that China and Russia have quietly improved Iran’s air defenses—while emphasizing that Iran’s direct capability to harm the United States is limited, with the most credible risks being proxy rockets toward Israel or sleeper‑cell scenarios.

Brad Colbert is a retired Marine Master Sergeant with 30 years of military and government service. He served with 1st Reconnaissance Battalion in Afghanistan in 2001 and during the 2003 invasion of Iraq, where he led Marines in combat and was later depicted in Generation Kill. After retiring from active duty, he continued working in support of the Intelligence Community before shifting his focus to leadership, resilience, and veteran advocacy through The Carry On Podcast and the Recon Foundation. We talked about combat, responsibility, and what happens when the uniform comes off. A major part of this conversation was veteran mental health and the reality that too many men are still fighting alone. Brad is working to change that. This episode is about ownership, connection, and making sure the people who served don't suffer in silence.

Today's Poll Question at Smerconish.com: "Should licensed broadcast radio and television stations have to give equal time to competing political candidates?" A Stephen Colbert interview with Texas Senate candidate James Talarico has reignited debate over the FCC's nearly century-old equal time rule. After CBS lawyers raised concerns about triggering the regulation, Colbert cried foul — and the controversy exploded online. Michael breaks down what the rule actually says, how it differs from the Fairness Doctrine, and whether “spectrum scarcity” still justifies government oversight in today's media landscape. Is this selective enforcement, political pressure, or simply the law being applied? And in an era of unlimited media choices, should balanced coverage be the government's job — or ours?

There’s a theme in today’s episode of holding the breath, which is something I’ve been doing about unrest and possible US military action in Iran. Sarah and I discuss reporting that the administration seems increasingly likely to take what they term “kinetic” action (and what Reps. Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie and Senators Tim Kaine and Rand Paul would call acts of war). Then there’s the way that our guest and friend Natalia Terfa describes holding her breath in Minneapolis. Even as Operation Metro Surge “winds down,” there are still agents and agitators. There is still fear and tension. There is damage left to repair after “it’s over,” and a sense that it’s not really over yet. We’re grateful to Natalia for her leadership on the ground and her willingness to discuss it with us today. We often talk about outside of politics as an exhale, and we hope it is today. We talk about our very-non-sports-y Winter Olympics takes, with a special shout out to all of you who participated in the Spice Cabinet Opening Ceremonies. If you’ve listened for a long time, you know that I love yoga. One of my favorite parts of a yoga class is taking a collective breath. It reminds me that we’re here. We’re alive, right now, and that’s its own form of miracle. It reminds me that we’re not alone. I hope this episode gives you that sense, too. -Beth Topics Discussed: Unrest in Iran and Potential Military Action On the Ground in Minneapolis with Natalia Terfa Outside of Politics: The Winter Olympics Ready to go deeper?

They analyze what that backlash means ahead of next week's Clinton hearing dates and the broader implications for Trump's coalition. Kander and Gupta also dive into the CBS decision to move James Talarico's Colbert interview online, the explosion of digital viewership, and the record-shattering ad spending in the Texas Senate primary.

Colbert says he was “silenced.” Reality: CBS lawyers reminded him the FCC equal-time rule exists — and he didn't want to give the other Democrat equal airtime. So instead of booking other candidates, he kicked the interview online and cried censorship. This wasn't Trump. It wasn't the FCC storming the studio. It was a late-night host trying to tilt a primary on broadcast TV — and getting boxed in by the rulebook. Josh Holmes, Comfortably Smug, Michael Duncan, and John Ashbrook break down the spin, the fundraising play, and the Democrat-media machine that treats late night like a campaign arm. In this episode:• The Equal Time rule Colbert pretends doesn't apply• Why CBS lawyers stepped in• How a “banned interview” turns into a multi-million dollar outrage haul• The real reason Jasmine Crockett didn't get the same invite PLUS — we actually believe in equal time. Featured Interview: Coach Dooley, candidate for U.S. Senate in Georgia

Chris Cuomo breaks down why CBS and Paramount blocked Stephen Colbert from broadcasting an interview with Texas State Rep. James Talarico and why the justification being floated about the “equal time” rule doesn't hold up. Cuomo walks through the history of the 1934 Communications Act, the Mayflower Doctrine, and the Fairness Doctrine to explain what the FCC actually regulates — and what it doesn't. He argues that CBS did not have to preempt the interview to comply with the law, and questions whether this move was about legal risk or political pressure. The deeper issue, Cuomo says, isn't just one guest or one late-night show. It's how corporate media, government influence, and outdated regulations intersect — and why social media platforms operate with fewer guardrails than broadcast ever did. More speech, not less, is the answer, but only if it's applied consistently.

Once again, FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr and his bad ideas about free speech have rankled a late night host. And once again, Nilay and David talk through what the equal-time rule actually means, why organizations keep caving, and why it's apparently up to people like Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel to fight back. After that, the hosts discuss the facial recognition feature Meta hopes to launch for its smart glasses, plus the gadgets we're likely to see Apple launch in the couple of weeks. In the lightning round, we get some bleak news on Tesla's self-driving skills, a robovac security disaster, and the future of Warner Bros.

Jeremy Carl, Trump's nominee for a senior State Department position, confronted the Senate on white discrimination only to be told that it didn't exist. Well, let's take a look and see if white discrimination is a right-wing conspiracy or real. All you have to do is play "Swap the Races." Stephen Colbert's time as host of The Late Show is almost at its end, but that's not stopping him from being a lying, petulant child.

Celebrate Allie's birthday with us in today's episode! Aside from the festivities, she will dive into Texas State Representative and U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico and his appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, which the two claimed was censored by President Trump. However, Allie exposes that CBS sidestepped an FCC fairness rule, meaning Colbert actually censored Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas). Allie also recaps her experience moderating the Republican Texas attorney general debate, highlighting key exchanges on issues like the growing influence of Islam, the abortion pill mifepristone, and border security. Last, Allie reacts to the phenomenon of adult American Girl doll influencers using dolls for anti-ICE activism.

Today, we're discussing the latest instance of large companies pre-emptively caving to the Trump Administration: Stephen Colbert's blocked interview with Texas Senate candidate James Tallarico. With that backdrop, the House of Representatives passed the SAVE America Act, which would require proof of citizenship to register to vote. Sarah and Beth discuss why this is a conversation about voter suppression disguised as election integrity. Next, we discuss the standoff between Anthropic and the Department of Defense over the use of Claude in military operations and domestic surveillance.

Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov break down how censoring Colbert backfired on CBS — after Texas state Rep. James Talarico's scheduled appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert was abruptly pulled off the air. Is this corporate media caving to Trump-era pressure — and is Paramount the real loser? Then: the DOJ says it's done releasing the Epstein files — but reports suggest the public has seen just 2% of them. If that's true, who's still exposed, and why is the department claiming mission accomplished? Plus: a DHS funding showdown is underway in Congress. With ICE funding already secured, and public trust in government near historic lows, which party blinks first? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Buck's Book Launch! Clay Travis & Buck Sexton give a reflective and emotional acknowledgment of the five‑year anniversary of Rush Limbaugh’s passing, honoring the legacy of the man whose influence built the foundation of the show’s audience. Clay and Buck describe the day as meaningful for longtime listeners and express gratitude for the community that followed Rush and now follows them. Producers Ali and Greg created a podcast honoring Rush in the Clay and Buck feed that features clips going back to the 90s and highlights many callers to the program. From there, the hour transitions into a major milestone: the release of Buck Sexton’s first book, Manufacturing Delusion. Buck explains the book’s themes—how the political left uses indoctrination, psychological manipulation, and propaganda to reshape public thinking—and shares insight into his CIA‑related experiences that informed several chapters. Clay encourages listeners to buy the book, noting its relevance to current political and cultural battles, especially surrounding issues of mental health, identity, and media manipulation. The conversation pivots sharply into breaking national news: yet another mass shooting carried out by a transgender‑identifying individual. Clay details the disturbing pattern of recent trans‑identified shooters—in Nashville, Minneapolis, British Columbia, and now Rhode Island—and highlights what he calls alarming media dishonesty, such as outlets refusing to identify perpetrators by biological sex. The hosts describe the Rhode Island shooter, a biological male who transitioned late in life, abandoned his family, and ultimately murdered relatives at a public hockey event before killing others. Clay and Buck argue that cultural messaging about “affirmation” has normalized delusion rather than treating mental illness, and they question whether hormone‑related medications, untreated psychological disorders, or ideological extremism contribute to the rising violence. They emphasize that society would never affirm the hallucinations of someone with schizophrenia, so affirming gender‑identity delusions is not compassionate—it’s dangerous. The Crazy Left Congressman Jim Jordan, who joins to discuss the latest on Capitol Hill. Jordan outlines ongoing border‑security battles, sanctuary‑city policies, and potential legislation that would allow local law‑enforcement agencies to cooperate with federal immigration authorities even when state governments attempt to block them. He highlights the staggering number of criminal migrants released by sanctuary jurisdictions and the urgent need for federal preemption in immigration enforcement. Jordan also offers a broad strategic look at the upcoming midterms, arguing that Republicans must contrast their record of border security, economic growth, and school‑choice initiatives with what he calls the Democratic Party’s “normal versus crazy” policy agenda. Before closing the interview, Clay and Buck ask Jordan about other trending issues, including the Winter Olympics and the viral curling controversy, which he humorously weighs in on. The hosts then return to a high‑profile national mystery: the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie. They discuss the latest update—that a glove found near her home did not match DNA inside the house—and reflect on the outsized media attention the case continues to attract despite minimal new information. Clay suggests that America’s fascination with true‑crime storytelling, especially among female viewers, is driving the intense coverage even as actionable developments remain scarce. It's Hard to Hate the Guy Clay and Buck preview their upcoming trip to Texas for the first major primary of the 2026 cycle. They examine the high‑stakes Texas Senate race, noting the competitive three‑way Republican contest among John Cornyn, Ken Paxton, and Wesley Hunt, as well as a brewing controversy on the Democratic side. The hosts break down the explosive dispute surrounding Democratic candidate James Talarico’s appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert—an interview CBS declined to air over equal‑time concerns. Colbert publicly blasted CBS executives on his show, turning the incident into a political moment. Clay argues that this conveniently boosts Talarico’s visibility while sidelining rival Jasmine Crockett, suggesting Democratic power players may be orchestrating a soft‑landing for their preferred candidate just as Texans begin early voting. Honoring Rush Limbaugh Clay and Buck give Rush Limbaugh a hat tip and honor him on the five-year anniversary of his passing. They also discuss the FCC’s scrutiny of political favoritism in late‑night TV, referencing FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr’s challenges to the idea that partisan talk shows should remain exempt from equal‑time rules. Buck notes that corporate media dominance by left‑leaning networks is finally being openly acknowledged after decades of pretending neutrality. The hosts compare the current era to the “Daily Show effect,” where comedy was long used as a shield to disguise political messaging. They argue that Colbert’s outrage reflects the media’s desire to maintain partisan influence without regulatory scrutiny. The hour expands into a wider election-season conversation—including the national implications of control of the House and Senate in 2026. Clay emphasizes that the Senate may hold greater long‑term stakes than the House due to aging Supreme Court justices and the potential for major judicial vacancies. They discuss prior examples, such as Justice Anthony Kennedy’s strategically timed retirement versus Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s decision to stay on the bench, underscoring how elections shape the judiciary for generations. Clay and Buck also take VIP listener emails and talkback messages, fielding questions about potential 2028 Democratic presidential contenders—including Mark Kelly, Josh Shapiro, and Gretchen Whitmer—and the role of intelligence, competence, and electability within the field. This segues into broader reflections on generational language (“back in the day”), the cultural reference points of the 1980s and 1990s, and how political memory shifts across age groups.

From FCC Chair Brendan Carr—who keeps trying to silence the political opinions of late night TV comedians, to DHS pressuring social media companies to expose anti-ICE accounts, and to the willingness of serial killer RFK, Jr and his MAHA cohort to stack up dead children so they can keep their antivax con going—it's clear the shamelessness of MAGA knows no bounds. But even if the coalition that delivered Trump's victory in ‘24 has been shattered, the Dems have to skip the seven-point policy plans and focus on the economy and Trump's corruption. And Dem candidates need to do their own tweeting.

Chip Roy attempts to debunk the idea that the Save Act will make voting more difficult for over 69 million women in America who have taken their husband's name in marriage. In doing so, Rep.

Jesse Jackson has passed away, and we take a look of his iconic recitation of the poem "I Am - Somebody" with children on Sesame Street.   In the Fun Half:   In light of Jesse Jackson's passing, we look back to 1988, when Jackson was running for president and clashed with the Chuck Schumer faction of the Democratic Party over Palestinian liberation.   Spike Lee hurts some feelings with his Gaza themed outfit he wore at the NBA All-Star game.   Greg Gutfeld, Jesse Watters, and Kennedy joke about Jeffrey Epstein, downplaying his crimes by describing him as a "fixer" and a "sex rabbi."   Ana Kasparian clashes with Jennifer Welch over whether Tucker Carlson is antisemitic or not.   all that and more   To connect and organize with your local ICE rapid response team visit ICERRT.com The Congress switchboard number is (202) 224-3121.
