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. Poor Choices and Chaos the fatal ICE-involved shooting in Minneapolis that has sparked nationwide controversy. Clay and Buck dissect the incident where a 37-year-old woman allegedly used her vehicle to obstruct federal immigration enforcement, resulting in her death. They emphasize video evidence showing the ICE officer acted in self-defense, countering claims from Mayor Jacob Frey and Governor Tim Walz, who labeled the shooting as excessive force and called for protests. The hosts argue this tragedy reflects a deeper problem within the Democratic Party’s anti-law enforcement rhetoric, which encourages dangerous confrontations with federal officers. VP Vance Calls Out the Left Live White House briefing featuring Vice President JD Vance and Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, who deliver a fiery defense of ICE and condemn the media for spreading “lies” about the incident. Vance asserts that the woman killed was part of a broader left-wing network aimed at obstructing immigration enforcement through doxxing, harassment, and even domestic terrorism tactics. He vows tougher federal action, including a new Assistant Attorney General role to prosecute those inciting violence against law enforcement. The briefing underscores the administration’s stance: enforcing immigration law is non-negotiable, and Democrats must stop rallying mobs against federal officers. Good News for MAHA Moms Guest Katie Zacharia joins to weigh in on the political fallout and broader implications. She highlights how sanctuary city policies and anti-ICE activism have fueled violence and fraud, citing California’s staggering $72 billion fraud scandal under Gavin Newsom and systemic failures in oversight. Katie calls for federal action, including suspending aid to jurisdictions violating the Supremacy Clause. The conversation shifts to California’s ongoing crises: wildfire recovery delays in Malibu and Pacific Palisades, where red tape and environmental regulations have stalled rebuilding efforts, leaving homeowners with plummeting property values. Katie also breaks down the proposed 5% billionaire wealth tax, warning it will accelerate the exodus of tech moguls and entrepreneurs from California while funding Medi-Cal programs strained by free healthcare for illegal immigrants. The hour also touches on RFK Jr.’s food pyramid overhaul and vaccine schedule changes, which have energized “Maha Moms” and even some liberal parents seeking reform in children’s health standards. Katie praises Trump for empowering RFK Jr. to challenge Big Pharma and promote healthier policies. Audience Talkbacks! Clay and Buck then pivot to lighter—but fiery—cultural debates, including regional cuisine hot takes and the “most overrated foods” in America. From Philly cheesesteaks and mint juleps to Puerto Rican Mofongo, the hosts don’t hold back, sparking laughs and listener engagement. They also revisit the nostalgia (and regret) of Jägermeister shots and Jägerbombs, contrasting them with underrated drinks like espresso martinis and sangria. The segment closes with talkbacks from listeners proposing which states or territories to “sell off,” adding humor to an otherwise intense news cycle.

Incident Overview ICE agents were conducting operations in Minneapolis when a woman blocked their vehicles and refused repeated commands to exit her car. She allegedly accelerated toward an ICE agent, prompting the officer to fire through the windshield, resulting in her death. The shooting is described as defensive and necessary to prevent harm to law enforcement officers. Context and Escalation The woman had been stalking and obstructing ICE agents throughout the day. It portrays her actions as part of a broader pattern of “political vigilanteism” and domestic terrorism, citing an increase in vehicle ramming attacks against ICE agents. Political Commentary Left-wing activists and Democratic officials are encouraging lawlessness and violence against federal officers. Quotes from officials like Secretary of Homeland Security and political figures are included, reinforcing support for ICE and condemning anti-ICE rhetoric. Statistics and Broader Trends A reported 1,300% increase in assaults and an 8,000% increase in death threats against ICE agents. Similar vehicle attacks have occurred nationwide, the incident is part of a growing threat. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

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. Twist of Irony Clay and Buck dive into the fallout from the historic Delta Force raid in Venezuela, which captured Nicolás Maduro and killed 32 Cuban bodyguards. They explore the strategic implications of Operation Absolute Resolve, framing it as a modern reaffirmation of the Monroe Doctrine and a bold move by President Trump to reassert U.S. dominance in the Western Hemisphere. The hosts discuss how this operation signals a shift in global power dynamics, undermining Chinese and Russian influence and exposing the weakness of authoritarian regimes like Venezuela, Cuba, and Iran. Republicans Stay at Hotels, Too Hilton Hotels cut ties with a franchisee after reports surfaced that ICE agents’ reservations were canceled. Clay and Buck frame this as a major shift in corporate behavior, contrasting today’s swift response with the era of performative activism during 2020. They credit the Bud Light backlash as a turning point, warning brands against alienating half the country and highlighting Michael Jordan’s timeless advice: “Republicans buy sneakers too.” From corporate culture, the discussion pivots to economic policy and tariffs, as Buck cites new research showing Trump’s tariff strategy did not fuel inflation, contrary to predictions by mainstream economists. Clay and Buck argue that tariffs, combined with strong GDP growth, could help balance the federal budget by 2026–2027 if upheld by the Supreme Court. They blast the failures of modern monetary theory and Biden-era spending, emphasizing common-sense economics and Trump’s vindication on trade policy. What Happens in NY, Won't Stay in NY Clay and Buck discussing the decline of New York City under Mayor Zohran Mamdani, warning that his radical socialist agenda—framed as replacing “rugged individualism with the warmth of collectivism”—could devastate property rights and public safety. They highlight viral clips of Mamdani’s allies advocating for housing as a “collective good,” signaling a push toward shared equity models that undermine private ownership. The hosts argue this reflects the broader influence of unmarried progressive women on Democratic policy, calling them the driving force behind destructive cultural and political trends. The conversation shifts to economic migration and the future of financial hubs, citing predictions that Miami and South Florida could replace New York as America’s financial capital, while tech billionaires flock to Texas. Clay and Buck attribute this to post-COVID remote work flexibility and tax advantages in states like Florida, Texas, and Tennessee, contrasting these environments with high-tax states such as New York and California. They warn that as wealthy residents flee, blue states will raise taxes further, accelerating the exodus. TX Rep. Chip Roy An in-depth interview with Congressman Chip Roy, who praises President Trump’s bold leadership in Operation Absolute Resolve, the mission that captured Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro. Roy explains the strategic importance of stabilizing Venezuela, restoring its oil production, and preventing resources from flowing to adversaries like China, Russia, and Iran. He emphasizes that this is not “nation-building” but a critical move to secure the Western Hemisphere under the Trump Doctrine, strengthen U.S. energy independence, and protect national security. Roy also warns of challenges ahead, including corruption within Venezuela’s regime, and stresses the need for strong rule of law and economic recovery. The discussion then pivots to the Somali daycare fraud scandal in Minnesota, which has rocked Governor Tim Walz’s political career. Clay and Buck play audio from Walz’s defiant press conference, where he vows not to resign despite mounting evidence of billions in fraudulent welfare payments. Roy underscores how grassroots investigations—like the viral exposé by a 23-year-old YouTuber—are filling the void left by legacy media, signaling a new era of citizen journalism and accountability. He calls for aggressive federal prosecutions, noting that fraud tied to federal funds warrants U.S. attorney involvement, and predicts that heads will roll as investigations expand nationwide.

Trump’s stance on Venezuela’s oil and U.S. role Trump is asserting the U.S. will “run” or strongly direct efforts in Venezuela, with U.S. oil companies going in to rebuild the country’s “broken” oil infrastructure. Trump is quoted saying elections should occur “at the right time” after stabilization. Venezuela’s oil reserves are worth trillions of dollars and recounts Trump correcting a reporter from “billion” to “trillion.” Maduro’s arrest and New York court proceedings Maduro’s first court appearance in Manhattan on narco-terrorism and drug trafficking charges, noting his not guilty plea, assertion that he is a “prisoner of war,” and that he remains Venezuela’s legitimate president. It adds details about detention in Brooklyn and a next hearing set for March 17, 2026. Protests were outside the courthouse vs. the operation and prosecution which were legitimate actions against criminal syndicates. U.S. counter-narcotics narrative The FBI Director is quoted praising Trump’s leadership, claiming agreements with Chinese officials reduced precursor chemicals for fentanyl, and citing seizure quantities (e.g., enough fentanyl to kill 175 million Americans). The director frames Venezuela as a transshipment point and argues the arrests support U.S. public safety. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Nottingham Forest beat West Ham United 2-1 in the Premier League thanks to Morgan Gibbs-White's late penalty. A massive win for Forest takes them seven points clear of West Ham in the table and eases pressure on both Forest and manager Sean Dyche with the Reds going into the game after losing four in a row. Forest rode their luck though, but the win was all that matters on the night. Matt Davies is joined by Chris Aylmer and Emily Williamson. #nffc #nottinghamforest

It's a massive game for both teams as victory for Forest would take them seven points clear of the Hammers.

The FCC delivered a massive shakeup to the drone industry right before the holidays, adding foreign-made drones (most notably from industry giant DJI) to its "Covered List" of national security threats. While the move effectively bans the sale of future DJI models in the U.S., GeekWire’s Todd Bishop and John Cook explore why this might be a golden economic opportunity for the Pacific Northwest. Featuring highlights from a recent interview with Blake Resnick of Brinc, the Seattle-based maker of public safety drones, who lobbied for the U.S. policy change and supports the move. Related story: Drone capital of the world? Seattle could be a big winner in the U.S. crackdown on DJI and others Plus, the results are in. After ignoring John’s advice and deciding to retrofit his 2007 Toyota Camry with a modern infotainment system, Todd shares the verdict. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Nottingham Forest were beaten 3-1 at Aston Villa in the Premier League's first game of 2026. It was a case of hitting the self destruct button as Forest played incredibly defensively before conceding on the stroke of half time. Villa scored again at the start of the second after losing the ball cheaply before John Victor gifted them a third after Morgan Gibbs-White had pulled a goal back. Matt Davies is joined by Mark Sutherns, Michael Temple and, fresh from commentating on the game for Sky Sports, Seb Hutchinson. #nffc #nottinghamforest

PREVIEW THE PREDETERMINED VERDICT FOR JIMMY LAI Colleague Mark Clifford. Clifford reports that Jimmy Lai's conviction is inevitable due to instructions from Beijing, despite a lack of evidence beyond his journalism. With the trial concluding, Clifford anticipates the 77-year-old will receive a sentence tantamount to life imprisonment, cementing his status as "public enemy number one." 1930S HONG KONG HARBOR.

Nottingham Forest head to Aston Villa in the Premier League for their first game of 2026 on Saturday. Villa are third in the league and won 11 consecutive games in all competitions before defeat to Arsenal last time out. Forest are 17th and have lost their last three, but have played well against the likes of Liverpool and Manchester City this season. It looks a daunting task for Forest but do Villa have weaknesses Forest can exploit? Matt Davies is joined by our Villa fan regular Steve Farmer. #nffc #nottinghamforest #avfc

Welcome to 2026! We start out the year by doing what we do best: Not enjoying a movie that is otherwise being heaped with critical praise! That's right, folks, Evan and Megan didn't really get the critical brouhaha behind THE PLAGUE (2:42). This story about extreme bullying at a water polo camp left them a little cold, and not because the water temperature is a chilly 65 degrees. Dave joins them for WE BURY THE DEAD (21:45), and unconventional the-dead-are-coming-back-to-life tale. This one left Dave cold, but not just because he has a frigid critics' heart. Evan and Megan liked it, and its take on zombieism is different: Not all the dead come back, they don't seem to want to eat you (though a few look like they'll kick the crap out of you), and have things on their minds. Daisy Ridley is excellent in the lead as an American woman in Tasmania looking for her husband, and Brenton Thwaites is solid as a ne'er-do-well trying to do well. Over on Patreon, we watched the 1982 courtroom drama THE VERDICT, starring Paul Newman.

Objective of the Plan Lower healthcare costs for Americans. Extend expiring ACA subsidies temporarily while transitioning to a new system. Shift financial benefits from insurance companies to individuals. Proposed Measures Two-year extension of Enhanced Premium Tax Credits (originally expanded during COVID-19). Income eligibility cap for subsidies at 700% of the federal poverty line to prevent wealthy Americans from benefiting. Minimum premium payments to ensure cost-sharing. Encourage Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) and direct tax credits to individuals rather than insurers. Push for cost-sharing reductions that were previously blocked in Congress. Financial Impact Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimates reforms could: Lower premiums by 12.7%. Save taxpayers $30.8 billion. Criticism of ACA for being “unsustainable” and increasing premiums by 80% since passage. Political Context Democrats opposed previous Republican attempts to include cost-sharing reductions in legislation. Debate over whether reforms should be bipartisan or passed via budget reconciliation. Trump emphasizes “power to the people” by allowing individuals to control healthcare spending. Underlying Philosophy There is a strong focus on consumer choice and freedom. Opposition to government-managed healthcare and subsidies flowing to insurance companies. A belief that direct-to-consumer funding will reduce corruption and lower costs. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

The woman who announced Alex Murdaugh's guilty verdict is now wearing handcuffs herself. In one of the most shocking reversals in recent courtroom history, former Colleton County Clerk of Court Becky Hill has been charged with obstruction of justice, misconduct in office, and perjury—casting a dark cloud over one of America's most watched murder trials. In this explosive Hidden Killers breakdown, Tony Brueski unpacks how Hill allegedly allowed sealed trial evidence to be photographed, violated multiple court orders, and used her powerful role in the Murdaugh trial to promote her own book, Behind the Doors of Justice. Prosecutors say she lied under oath about leaking evidence. Investigators say she broke the rules she was sworn to uphold. And Murdaugh's defense says this validates everything they've been arguing for a year: the trial wasn't fair. But that's only half the story. Murdaugh's 132-page appeal to the South Carolina Supreme Court claims his double-murder trial was fundamentally compromised—citing Hill's alleged juror influence, flawed forensics, and the admission of six days of unrelated financial-crimes testimony. The defense also points to newly discovered text messages from Curtis “Eddie” Smith that were never turned over. Hill's arrest doesn't prove jury tampering — but it raises enough questions to destabilize confidence in the verdict. The State insists that while Hill's actions were inappropriate, they don't warrant a new trial. The defense says the integrity of the justice system is already shattered. Oral arguments could come this fall, but a ruling may not land until 2026. One thing is certain: Becky Hill's arrest didn't just ignite a scandal—it may have opened the door for Alex Murdaugh's last and most powerful shot at a retrial. #BeckyHill #AlexMurdaugh #MurdaughTrial #MurdaughAppeal #TrueCrimeNews #CourtroomDrama #ObstructionOfJustice #LegalScandal #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Nottingham Forest were beaten 2-0 massive game in the Premier League by a threadbare Everton on Tuesday night. With tough games to come, it's one Forest fans had targeted for three points. Forest put in another poor performance against Everton after losing 3-0 to them a few weeks. Just not good enough. Matt Davies is joined by Dan Cook and Paul Morley from to discuss Sean Dyche's questionable tactics and use of the bench, as well more poor set piece deliveries. #nffc #nottinghamforest

The Alex Murdaugh story is not finished — in fact, the most consequential chapter may be the one unfolding right now. Three final filings have landed before the South Carolina Supreme Court, and they paint two radically different versions of justice. Prosecutors insist the evidence against Murdaugh was overwhelming: the kennel video timeline, the lies about his whereabouts, the destroyed credibility, and what they describe as a mountain of circumstantial proof. The defense, however, says the entire 2023 double-murder trial was fundamentally corrupted — built on juror influence, untested forensics, and weeks of prejudicial financial-crime testimony that turned a criminal defendant into a caricature of evil. In this full Hidden Killers breakdown, Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and former prosecutor Eric Faddis dissect the final battle lines. We examine the juror affidavit alleging Clerk of Court Becky Hill commented on Murdaugh's demeanor. The defense argues those remarks tainted deliberations and demand a presumption of prejudice. The state counters that Hill's behavior, though “improper,” had no measurable effect — and that the evidence was strong enough to withstand any misstep. We explain how the Supreme Court evaluates fairness, prejudice, “harmless error,” and institutional integrity — and why this appeal isn't just about guilt, but about whether the justice system can confront its own cracks. Missing forensic testing, questions about expert pressure, and Hill's own criminal charges raise deeper issues about how courts protect verdicts in high-profile cases.

The Alex Murdaugh story is not finished — in fact, the most consequential chapter may be the one unfolding right now. Three final filings have landed before the South Carolina Supreme Court, and they paint two radically different versions of justice. Prosecutors insist the evidence against Murdaugh was overwhelming: the kennel video timeline, the lies about his whereabouts, the destroyed credibility, and what they describe as a mountain of circumstantial proof. The defense, however, says the entire 2023 double-murder trial was fundamentally corrupted — built on juror influence, untested forensics, and weeks of prejudicial financial-crime testimony that turned a criminal defendant into a caricature of evil. In this full Hidden Killers breakdown, Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and former prosecutor Eric Faddis dissect the final battle lines. We examine the juror affidavit alleging Clerk of Court Becky Hill commented on Murdaugh's demeanor. The defense argues those remarks tainted deliberations and demand a presumption of prejudice. The state counters that Hill's behavior, though “improper,” had no measurable effect — and that the evidence was strong enough to withstand any misstep. We explain how the Supreme Court evaluates fairness, prejudice, “harmless error,” and institutional integrity — and why this appeal isn't just about guilt, but about whether the justice system can confront its own cracks. Missing forensic testing, questions about expert pressure, and Hill's own criminal charges raise deeper issues about how courts protect verdicts in high-profile cases. If the Supreme Court affirms the conviction, the saga quiets — for now. If they order a new trial, it becomes one of the biggest judicial reversals in modern true crime. #AlexMurdaugh #MurdaughAppeal #HiddenKillers #BeckyHill #CourtroomDrama #SouthCarolina #TrueCrimeAnalysis #LegalUpdate #TonyBrueski #JusticeSystem Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Nottingham Forest were beaten 2-1 by Manchester City in the Premier League at the City Ground. It was a brave performance from Forest, who deserved to take something from the game after Omari Hutchinson made it 1-1. Rayan Cherki was instrumental for City and he hit the winner when Forest felt Morgan Gibbs-White was fouled. Matt Davies is joined by Paul Morley and Adam Summerton, fresh from commentating on the game for TNT Sports. #nffc #nottinghamforest

The verdict dropped — and the courtroom snapped to attention. In this full, uncut Hidden Killers upload, you'll see the exact moment Donna Adelson reacted to being found guilty, followed immediately by the judge warning her she would be removed from the courtroom if the behavior continued.

After the clip, Tony Brueski breaks down the legal mechanics behind what you just witnessed:  • Why judges issue removal threats  • What qualifies as disruptive courtroom conduct  • How jurors interpret emotional outbursts at the precise moment of a verdict  • And how the defense may attempt to frame her reaction later We also walk through the critical evidence and themes emphasized during closings — the motive, the timeline, the financial trail, the digital patterns — and how those elements likely connected to the jury's decision. If you've followed this case since day one, this gives you the final puzzle piece. If you're joining now, this is the clearest entry point into understanding why the verdict unfolded the way it did. Finally, we look ahead to what happens next:  • Post-verdict motions  • The path to sentencing  • What grounds (if any) exist for appeal  • How the court handles a defendant who reacts poorly at critical procedural moments This is a clean, factual, legally grounded explainer — no speculation, no dramatization, no graphic content.

The focus is on the complex case of Poppell v. Cardinal Health, McKesson Corporation, and Smith Corporation, which involved 21 plaintiffs and highlighted the opioid crisis.   CASE SUMMARY:  In the case of Poppell, et al, vs McKesson, et al, twenty-one plaintiffs sued three wholesale medicine and medical supply distributors, including McKesson Corporation, Cardinal Health, and J.M. Smith.

The year is in the books for the Paddock Pass Podcast and we'll close it out with our final show. Steve and Gordo review the year that was with topics such as our rider of the year, round of the year, surprise of the season and others covered!

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. Trump IS Fixing the Economy Inflation has dropped to 2.7%—the lowest level since spring 2021. Core inflation sits at 2.6%, nearing the Federal Reserve’s 2% target. Clay explains why this matters for everyday Americans, connecting the dots between Biden-era spending, skyrocketing prices, and the aggressive interest rate hikes that froze the housing market. He recalls how inflation surged to 9.1% in June 2022 after trillions in stimulus spending, driving mortgage rates above 7% and locking millions of homeowners into historically low rates from 2020–2021. This “housing freeze,” Clay argues, remains one of the biggest drags on economic mobility. Clay then pivots to President Trump’s primetime address, highlighting key announcements that could reshape the economic landscape. Culture Wars Brianna Lyman of The Federalist delivers a powerful defense of historical literacy amid efforts to erase America’s past. The discussion centers on Virginia’s removal of a Robert E. Lee statue, the legacy of reconciliation after the Civil War, and the dangers of applying modern moral standards to historical figures. Lyman warns that the left’s obsession with tearing down monuments—from Lee to Jefferson and even Washington—aims to delegitimize America’s founding principles and pave the way for radical ideological shifts. Clay and Lyman explore how this “floor vs. ceiling” approach to history—focusing on flaws instead of achievements—threatens national unity, especially as the country prepares for its 250th anniversary in 2026. MIT Assassination Authorities believe they have identified the suspect in the Brown University shooting, which left two students dead and 12 injured after 40 rounds were fired on campus. While no arrest has been made, investigators are also probing a possible link between this attack and the assassination of MIT professor Nuno Loureiro, a nuclear weapons expert killed in his Boston home just days later. Clay underscores the chilling implications of these events and promises continued coverage as details emerge. The hour also touches on tragic news from North Carolina, where NASCAR legend Greg Biffle reportedly died in a private plane crash en route to Florida, according to Daily Mail reports citing close friends. Clay then pivots to a heated media moment: Candace Owens’ explosive claims on Piers Morgan’s show, suggesting two Turning Point USA employees may have had foreknowledge of Charlie Kirk’s assassination—a theory Clay calls “loony bin crazy” and emblematic of a media ecosystem that rewards outrageous, unverified opinions. He contrasts this with a Washington Post profile of alleged assassin Tyler Robinson, detailing his radicalization, anti-Trump rage, and ties to trans activism, reinforcing what Clay sees as the clear ideological motive behind the killing. Dealing with Holiday TDS Psychotherapist Jonathan Alpert joins to offer strategies for surviving holiday gatherings with politically divided families. Alpert warns that “Trump Derangement Syndrome” has hardened into personality-level anger for some, fueling anxiety and family estrangement. His advice: prioritize relationships over politics, set boundaries, and redirect conversations to holiday traditions. Callers weigh in with personal stories and coping tactics, from walking away during heated debates to reaffirming shared values. Alpert also explores whether this intense polarization will persist beyond Trump’s presidency, concluding that while partisan hostility will remain, Trump’s outsider status amplified the vitriol to unprecedented levels.

Investigations by the U.S. Attorney’s Office and the House Oversight Committee revealed that crime statistics were deliberately misclassified by the Metropolitan Police Department. The outgoing police chief, Pamela Smith, allegedly pressured commanders to report lower crime figures, downgrade serious offenses, and even retaliated against those who tried to report accurate data. These actions created a “culture of fear” within the department, undermining public trust. While the conduct did not lead to criminal charges, it raised serious concerns about transparency and governance. Fentanyl Classified as a Weapon of Mass Destruction Former President Trump signed an executive order categorizing fentanyl as a weapon of mass destruction, citing its catastrophic impact on American lives. The order frames fentanyl as a national security threat, aligning it with nuclear and chemical weapons, and authorizes expanded measures against drug cartels. This initiative is part of a broader military and policy campaign targeting narcotics trafficking, including naval operations and sanctions against Venezuela’s leadership accused of narco-terrorism.

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. I'm Getting a Bad Vibe Updates on the Brown University shooting, where speculation grows about whether the attack was a politically motivated assassination targeting Ella Cook, a prominent conservative and College Republicans leader on one of the nation’s most left-wing campuses. Buck examines eyewitness reports suggesting the shooter yelled “Allahu Akbar,” raising questions about radical Islamic extremism and why authorities in Providence are withholding key details. He warns of political spin and compares this case to past incidents where officials obscured jihadist motives, such as the Pulse nightclub attack. Buck promotes his upcoming book Manufacturing Delusion, warning about the resurgence of radical Islam and the dangers of silencing truth under the guise of political correctness. Bondi Beach Police Response Buck explores the police response failures during the Bondi attack, highlighting video evidence of officers—particularly female officers—struggling to subdue armed attackers under restrictive use-of-force policies. Buck calls for an honest conversation about physical realities in law enforcement and the dangers of politically driven policing standards. Buck also investigates the attackers’ training links to jihadist networks in the southern Philippines, including ISIS affiliates like Abu Sayyaf and BIFF. He explains how these terror groups provide ideological indoctrination and tactical skills, drawing parallels to patterns seen in past plots against U.S. targets. This segment underscores the resurgence of radical Islam and the global spread of jihadist ideology. The Lost Generation In a major cultural segment, Buck highlights a Compact Magazine exposé on DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion), arguing that DEI policies have derailed a generation of professionals, lowered standards in elite institutions, and degraded quality in media, publishing, and Hollywood. He explains how diversity hiring became an explicit, racially biased practice that sidelined meritocracy, resulting in declining creativity and institutional prestige. Name that Terrorist Group Buck explores the broader terrorism threat landscape, drawing on his experience as a former CIA Counterterrorism Center analyst. He argues that radical Islam remains a unique global security challenge, contrasting it with other religions and dismantling the narrative around “Islamophobia.” This segment includes a candid discussion on why media and political elites downplay Islamist violence while exaggerating right-wing extremism.

U.S. authorities, including the Coast Guard, FBI, Homeland Security, and Navy, seized the tanker in a coordinated operation. Video footage of the boarding was released publicly. Official Justification: The seizure was based on violations of U.S. sanctions and links to illicit oil networks supporting sanctioned entities, including Iran. Venezuelan Reaction: The Maduro government condemned the action as “international piracy” and a violation of sovereignty, vowing to raise the issue in international forums. Geopolitical Impact: The incident escalated U.S.-Venezuela tensions, contributed to rising global oil prices, and raised questions about potential military escalation. Media Coverage: CNN and Fox News-while some portray the move as controversial, analysts argue it is consistent with past U.S. actions against Iranian oil tankers.
