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. Democrats vs. Law Enforcement The show features a critical breakdown of Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson’s MSNBC interview with Joe Scarborough, where Johnson repeatedly avoids answering whether adding 5,000 police officers would reduce crime. Clay and Buck argue this reflects a broader Democratic reluctance to support law enforcement, driven by ideological commitments rather than public safety. They cite crime statistics—such as Chicago’s 629 murders in 2022, exceeding the entire United Kingdom’s total—to underscore the urgency of the issue. Real-World Consequences A gripping firsthand account from a young Asian-American reporter who was violently mugged in Washington, D.C., highlighting the real-world consequences of urban crime. This sets the stage for a broader conversation about President Trump’s aggressive crime-fighting strategy in the nation’s capital, which the hosts frame as both morally necessary and politically effective. The show explores how Trump’s deployment of the National Guard and law enforcement has led to a notable drop in violent crime, including a 13-day streak without a homicide—an unprecedented development in a Democrat-run city. The hosts contrast this with Democratic messaging that downplays violent crime in favor of focusing on homelessness and mental health, arguing that Trump’s results-driven approach is resonating with everyday Americans. Rep. Chip Roy Congressman Chip Roy joins the program to discuss his campaign for Texas Attorney General, his push to ban congressional stock trading, and his support for raising the mandatory retirement age for commercial pilots from 65 to 67 to address pilot shortages. He also weighs in on the Texas vs. Ohio State football game, predicting a win for the Longhorns led by Arch Manning. Anything to Not Thank Trump The hosts dive into the political and cultural impact of President Trump’s crime-fighting strategy, particularly in Washington, D.C., where violent crime rates have dropped significantly following federal intervention. They frame Trump’s approach as a bold, results-driven solution that contrasts sharply with Democratic leadership in cities like Chicago and Baltimore. The segment emphasizes how Trump’s actions—such as deploying federal resources and supporting law enforcement—are reshaping the national conversation around urban safety, law and order, and public accountability. The hosts also highlight Trump’s stance on transgender athletes in women’s sports, positioning it as a common-sense issue that resonates with a majority of Americans. They argue that Trump’s ability to solve real-world problems, from securing the border to reducing crime, is what sets him apart from traditional politicians. The discussion underscores how Democrats’ resistance to Trump’s policies—even when they improve public safety—reveals a deeper ideological divide, with some voters prioritizing political identity over personal security.

House GOP Probe House Republicans, led by Oversight Committee Chair James Comer, launched an investigation into alleged manipulation of Washington, D.C. crime data. Allegations claim Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) officials intentionally downgraded charges to make crime statistics appear lower. A whistleblower with knowledge of MPD operations confirmed the alleged manipulation. One commander, Michael Pulliam, was suspended over the incident, but the issue may span all seven patrol districts. Justice Department & Federal Probe The investigation follows the Justice Department announcing its own federal probe into D.C. crime statistics. Discrepancy: official reports say crime is at a 30-year low, but residents and whistleblowers say otherwise. Donald Trump’s Position Trump claims FBI crime stats are “fake” and is framing D.C. as a test case for federal intervention in U.S. cities. He threatened to send troops to Baltimore, raising concerns among local officials. Trump portrays himself as confronting “business as usual” in crime reporting and law enforcement. Cashless Bail Executive Order Trump signed an executive order to end cashless bail, starting in Washington, D.C. The order: Directs federal law enforcement to prosecute arrestees federally where possible. Seeks to prevent pretrial release without bail. Threatens to withhold or revoke federal funding from jurisdictions with cashless bail policies. Attorney General must identify such jurisdictions within 30 days. Political Reactions Democrats: Angry at Trump’s intervention. Argue cashless bail gives judges discretion to detain or release based on risk, not wealth. Say Trump is using the issue as a distraction from other policy failures (e.g., prices, economy). Trump Allies & Conservatives: Portray cashless bail as a failed liberal policy fueling crime. Cite cities like Chicago as examples of negative consequences. Miami’s mayor emphasized public safety as citizens’ top concern, criticizing revolving-door justice.

After building a rental portfolio of 300 houses and selling 500 turnkey rentals, Xander made a bold move: he downsized his business—on purpose. Most investors are focused on scaling, but Xander saw the writing on the wall—tightening margins, rising rates, and burnout—and chose to pivot. We talked about what signals told him it was time to shift, how he sold off his property management company, and why he's now focused on lean operations and hard money lending. If you want to know how to stay ahead of a shifting market or you've ever wondered whether all the growth is worth it, this is a r conversation you'll want to hear. Mentioned in this episode:Think and Grow Rich – https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/…/think-and-grow-rich/Investor Fuel Mastermind – https://investorfuel.comWize Hire  – https://www.wizehire.com)Xander's Carrot Site  – https://crofmaryland.com/ Key Quotes:“You've got to look at revenue per employee… Bare minimum should be $300,000 per employee.”“Instead of buying rentals ourselves, we began buying houses, renovating them, and selling them as turnkey rental properties.”“Every business owner on this call… knows everyone wants to make more money. Inflation is real… all these forces hitting at once... There's nothing wrong with scaling back.”“Hard money lending allows us to spend less than 10 hours per deal—and still make solid returns.” About Xander: Alexander Cruz is a Baltimore native, a real estate expert, and the owner of CR of Maryland. Since 2012, he has led the purchase, renovation, and resale of over 1,600 homes across the Baltimore metro area and surrounding counties. With deep local knowledge and a commitment to improving communities, Alexander has built CR of Maryland into one of the most trusted home-buying companies in Maryland. Under his leadership, CR of Maryland helps homeowners sell their homes quickly and easily, offering fair cash offers with no fees, no repairs, and no hassle. Alexander takes pride in offering real solutions to sellers, whether they are facing foreclosure, going through probate, dealing with a vacant property, or simply ready to move on. He lives in Maryland with his wife, Lauren, and their two children. Outside of real estate, he's a dedicated family man who enjoys time on the water, cheering on Baltimore sports, and supporting local service projects. ***Join us live, Thursdays at 11 AM Pacific for the Evergreen Marketing Live Q&A: https://www.facebook.com/groups/officialcarrotcommunity/***Need to grow as a leader?

What's interesting is that violent crime is WAY down in places like Chicago and Baltimore. Not great, but still way down. I was 100% in favor of troops to clean up DC because it's our nation's capital and I think that matters, plus Trump had the authority to take action there. He does not have the same authority in other cities, but he seems to be pushing to put the National Guard there anyway.

There, the trio united behind a shared mission: preparing Black southerners to pass the daunting Jim Crow era voter registration literacy tests that were designed to disenfranchise them.Together with beautician-turned-teacher Bernice Robinson, they launched the underground Citizenship Schools project, which began with a single makeshift classroom hidden in the back of a rural grocery store. By the time the Voting Rights Act was signed into law in 1965, the secretive undertaking had established more than nine hundred citizenship schools across the South, preparing tens of thousands of Black citizens to read and write, demand their rights—and vote. Simultaneously, it nurtured a generation of activists—many of them women—trained in community organizing, political citizenship, and tactics of resistance and struggle who became the grassroots foundation of the Civil Rights Movement.

Now here's your hosts, Allen Hall, Joel Saxon, Phil Totaro, and Rosemary Barnes.  Allen Hall: Welcome to the Uptime Wind Energy Podcast. Hold on tight. I told my producer before we started, this is gonna be a. Bumpy rise. So for all our listeners, hold on. Uh, it's a lot of news in the wind and solar world at the minute. Phil Tarro is in California. Joel Saxon is back from Australia in Austin, Texas, and first up is the Federal Department of Transportation. Complaining about how close wind turbines could be to railroads and create an interference, and it'd be a safety crisis. Uh, federal transportation officials and a new scientific research report, [00:01:00] Joel, are sounding an urgent alarm about wind turbines being. Too close to railroad tracks and a comprehensive study from California's Tehachapi Pass Wind Farm confirms, quote unquote confirms that wind farms can severely interfere with critical radio communications used by trains. Now, uh, what they don't want you to do is to read the report. That's what they don't want you to do. And, uh, as a group of engineers, we're going to read the report and see what it says. And what it says is that they have a safety system on trains because they used to run into each other quite often. And what they've done is they have a overriding system that's run by radio communication that if a train goes too fast and some of these more frequented train tracks or in. High density population bases like Chicago or Baltimore, one of these places that they can actually slow the train down or stop the train in some cases, what it sounds like if they're [00:02:00] on a collision course, and that becomes important on commuter rails. And, um, if they have toxic chemicals on trains, that they don't want them to have accidents. So they put the system in. And the system is based on Joel. The world's oldest communication form.  Joel Saxum: It's VHF radio, right? So to those of you that don't know what VHF radio is, it's basically like, uh, close to the frequencies you'd use as a walkie-talkie as a kid. Um hmm. Right. Uh, or a CB radio. Right. We're, we're quite a ways past that now. Uh, so wifi, cell modems, satellite communications are all regular things within basically any other industry. Uh, of course, but this one, yeah, we're still using VHF technology that we used. I, that's been around for a long time for radio communication back from World War ii. Or before that? Oh yeah.  Allen Hall: Right around World War ii. How far do those, uh, walkie-talkie radios typically  Joel Saxum: work? Well, it depends if you, I guess if it depends if you buy 'em from Walmart or if you buy 'em a, [00:03:00] a, a professional one. But, uh, depending on what watt radio is in 'em, I mean mile two miles maybe.  Allen Hall: Exactly. And that's how this train system works. So every. Couple of miles, they have a repeater to transmit the signal up and down the train tracks. Well, it became really important because, you know,
