In this bonus episode of Verdict with Ted Cruz:   Allegations of George Soros Funding Anti-Trump “No Kings” Rallies Ben and Sen Cruz explain that recent anti-Trump rallies, branded as “No Kings,” were not grassroots movements but were funded by George Soros through his Open Society Foundations. They cite financial connections between Soros and progressive organizations like Indivisible, which allegedly helped organize the rallies. The podcast criticizes the rallies as being “AstroTurf” (fake grassroots), lacking diversity, and driven by radical left-wing ideology. Cruz introduces the “Stop Funders Act”, a proposed bill that would add rioting as a predicate act under the RICO Act, allowing prosecutors to target those who fund violent protests. 2. Mass Killing of Christians in Nigeria Cruz highlights the mass murder of over 50,000 Christians in Nigeria since 2009, allegedly by extremist groups like Boko Haram and ISIS in West Africa. He accuses the Nigerian government of either ignoring or enabling the violence, citing reports from the U.S. State Department and other sources. Cruz has introduced legislation to designate Nigeria as a “country of particular concern” and to impose sanctions on Nigerian officials complicit in the violence.

It's All Gonna Be Okay Reflections on the ongoing government shutdown, now in its 21st day, framing it as a result of Democratic obstructionism. Clay and Buck also discuss President Donald Trump's $250 million White House ballroom renovation, joking about Clay’s dancing skills and the broader implications of the renovation. A major segment focuses on the broken ceasefire in Gaza, with Buck emphasizing that Hamas remains unchanged and peace is impossible while its leadership remains intact. The hosts also highlight Judge Jeanine Pirro’s defense of Edward “Big Balls,” a man who intervened in a carjacking incident, portraying him as a patriotic hero.The show then shifts to political media, mocking Karine Jean-Pierre’s book and criticizing the broader trend of Biden administration officials publishing memoirs. Clay and Buck argue that these books reveal a lack of awareness or integrity regarding President Biden’s cognitive decline. A significant portion of Hour 1 centers on the heated New York City mayoral race. Curtis Sliwa refuses to drop out despite pressure, which Clay argues will ensure the election of progressive candidate “Mamdani.” The hosts debate whether Andrew Cuomo would be a better alternative and explore the strategic implications for the Republican Party. They suggest that a Momani victory could benefit national GOP efforts by making far-left politics more visible and unpopular in battleground states. The discussion includes commentary on Bill Ackman, down-ballot Republican candidates, and the broader impact on upstate New York. NYC Mayor's Race New York City mayoral race, where Curtis Sliwa faces mounting pressure to drop out to prevent a victory by far-left candidate Zohran Mamdani. The New York Post’s front-page plea for Sliwa to “just walk away” underscores the urgency felt by conservatives. Buck and Clay debate whether Andrew Cuomo would be a better alternative, despite his controversial record on bail reform and COVID-19 policies. They also discuss the broader political ramifications, suggesting that a Mamdani win could energize Republican campaigns in New Jersey, Virginia, and beyond. Stripper Teachers The fallout from a Chicago elementary school teacher who made a gesture mimicking the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk during a “No Kings” protest. Clay argues that public school teachers should be held to a moral standard and that such behavior warrants termination. This sparks a lively debate with listeners calling in to defend or challenge the idea, including humorous and serious takes on whether teachers should be allowed to moonlight as strippers or work at Hooters. The hosts also revisit the Jimmy Kimmel controversy and the broader issue of free speech versus professional accountability. They emphasize that First Amendment protections do not guarantee immunity from consequences in the workplace, especially when public trust is at stake. This leads into a discussion of COVID-era hypocrisy, including the absurd restrictions placed on athletes like Kyrie Irving and the shifting public narrative around vaccine mandates. ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith is praised for acknowledging that Kyrie was right to resist the COVID shot, a stance that was once widely condemned. Dishonest Democrats Trump’s East Wing renovation, including a ballroom project and a humorous historical anecdote about JFK’s infamous White House pool parties. The hosts use this to critique the media’s long-standing romanticization of Democratic figures like JFK and FDR, highlighting how past administrations manipulated public perception with the help of a compliant press. The conversation shifts to Trump’s speech on the shutdown, where he praises OMB Director Russ Vought—nicknamed “Darth Vader”—for cutting Democrat priorities and wasteful spending. Clay and Buck argue that the shutdown has allowed the administration to eliminate unnecessary programs, particularly in blue states, and that Democrats are struggling to justify their resistance. They mock Chuck Schumer’s attempt to frame the shutdown as a Republican failure, labeling it the “Schumer Shutdown” and pointing out the hypocrisy of Democrats who once promised Obamacare would lower healthcare costs.

Batya Ungar-Sargon is quoted criticizing the protest as anti-democratic, noting that Trump is simply enacting the agenda he campaigned on. Additional segments include listener call-ins, such as a trucker’s critique of collectivism and authoritarianism, and a humorous debate over whether teachers should be allowed to moonlight as strippers. Clay shares a personal anecdote about his son dropping a phone in the toilet and Alabama defeating Tennessee, adding a lighthearted close to the hour.

Hour 2 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show delivers a hard-hitting, politically charged analysis of current events, with a strong focus on the unraveling legacy of the Biden administration and the intensifying New York City mayoral race. The hour begins with commentary on President Donald Trump’s ongoing remarks from the Rose Garden, followed by a deep dive into the media tour of former White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, who is promoting her new book and claiming to be an “independent” rather than a Democrat. Clay and Buck dissect her evasive answers about President Joe Biden’s fitness to serve through 2028, calling out what they describe as dishonesty and political damage control. The hosts explore the broader implications of Biden-era officials attempting to rehabilitate their public images through memoirs, noting that even liberal media figures like Stephen Colbert are now openly criticizing the administration’s handling of Biden’s cognitive decline. They argue that the credibility of many Democrats has been permanently damaged due to their defense of Biden’s fitness and suggest that this could impact future contenders like Kamala Harris, Pete Buttigieg, and Gavin Newsom. The conversation shifts to the New York City mayoral race, where Curtis Sliwa faces mounting pressure to drop out to prevent a victory by far-left candidate Zohran Mamdani. The New York Post’s front-page plea for Sliwa to “just walk away” underscores the urgency felt by conservatives. Buck and Clay debate whether Andrew Cuomo would be a better alternative, despite his controversial record on bail reform and COVID-19 policies. They also discuss the broader political ramifications, suggesting that a Mamdani win could energize Republican campaigns in New Jersey, Virginia, and beyond. A major segment of Hour 2 tackles the fallout from a Chicago elementary school teacher who made a gesture mimicking the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk during a “No Kings” protest.

This sparks a lively debate with listeners calling in to defend or challenge the idea, including humorous and serious takes on whether teachers should be allowed to moonlight as strippers or work at Hooters.

Hour 3 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show delivers a dynamic mix of political analysis, historical reflection, and breaking news, centered around President Donald Trump’s remarks, the ongoing government shutdown, and the intensifying New York City mayoral race. The hour opens with commentary on Trump’s East Wing renovation, including a ballroom project and a humorous historical anecdote about JFK’s infamous White House pool parties. The hosts use this to critique the media’s long-standing romanticization of Democratic figures like JFK and FDR, highlighting how past administrations manipulated public perception with the help of a compliant press. The conversation shifts to Trump’s speech on the shutdown, where he praises OMB Director Russ Vought—nicknamed “Darth Vader”—for cutting Democrat priorities and wasteful spending. Clay and Buck argue that the shutdown has allowed the administration to eliminate unnecessary programs, particularly in blue states, and that Democrats are struggling to justify their resistance. They mock Chuck Schumer’s attempt to frame the shutdown as a Republican failure, labeling it the “Schumer Shutdown” and pointing out the hypocrisy of Democrats who once promised Obamacare would lower healthcare costs. A key segment features TN Senator Marsha Blackburn, who joins live from Washington, D.C. after attending a lunch with President Trump in the Rose Garden. Blackburn discusses the shutdown’s impact, the Democrats’ push to supercharge Obamacare, and the strategic budget cuts being implemented. She also highlights the success of Trump’s National Guard deployment in Memphis, Tennessee, citing dramatic reductions in crime, gang arrests, and the rescue of missing children. Blackburn suggests Memphis could become a national model for urban crime reduction. The hosts then pivot to economic policy, playing a clip of Jon Stewart criticizing Democrats for relying on subsidies that inflate costs in healthcare and education. Bernie Sanders responds with his usual rhetoric about taxing billionaires, prompting Clay and Buck to debunk the myth that higher taxes on the wealthy can solve systemic budget issues. They emphasize that inflation acts as a hidden tax on everyday Americans and that government overspending is the root cause of economic instability.Listener calls round out the hour, with discussions on free speech and workplace consequences following the assassination of Charlie Kirk. One caller shares a story about a colleague being fired over social media comments, while another highlights a viral video of a teacher celebrating Kirk’s death in front of students. The hosts reiterate that First Amendment protections do not shield individuals from professional accountability, especially in public service roles. The hour closes with more analysis of the New York City mayoral race, where Curtis Sliwa’s refusal to drop out is seen as paving the way for Zohran Mamdani’s victory. Callers debate whether Republicans should support Andrew Cuomo to block Mamdani, with some arguing that a Mamdani win would expose the dangers of far-left governance and benefit the GOP nationally. The show ends with a preview of Clay and Buck’s upcoming visit to Fort Wayne, Indiana for a station anniversary event.

No Kings Loser-Fest Clay and Buck diving into the fallout from the “No Kings” protest aimed at President Donald Trump. They mock the protest as ineffective and desperate, noting its aging demographic and lack of clear purpose. The hosts argue that Trump’s opponents have shifted from substantive issues to symbolic gestures, revealing the fractured state of the anti-Trump movement. They highlight Trump’s own response from Air Force One, where he dismissed the protests as “a joke” and reiterated, “I’m not a king.”  The discussion expands to the government shutdown drama, suggesting Democrats may prolong it for political leverage in upcoming elections. Clay and Buck emphasize Trump’s strong approval ratings and assert that his first year in office is among the most effective in U.S. history, despite ongoing judicial resistance. Sorry, New York  Clay and Buck dissect the explosive controversy surrounding front-runner Zohran Mamdani, who was recently photographed campaigning alongside an Imam linked to the 1993 World Trade Center bombing and pro-jihad rhetoric. President Donald Trump weighed in, calling the association “a shame” and questioning Mamdani’s judgment. The hosts debate whether this scandal will impact the race and highlight that major Democrats like Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries have withheld endorsements, signaling deep party discomfort. Clay and Buck predict that Mamdani will likely win, citing gambling markets giving him a 93% chance of victory, compared to Cuomo’s slim odds and Curtis Sliwa’s near-zero chances. They argue that Mamdani’s radical proposals—such as city-run grocery stores and free public transit—are unrealistic and doomed to fail but warn that his charisma could make him a dangerous figure for Democrats nationally. The conversation explores whether Mamdani will moderate his agenda early on to avoid backlash before ramping up progressive policies later in his term. Identity Politics Fracture The Democratic Party strategy and 2026 midterms, suggesting that figures like AOC and Gavin Newsom may secretly prefer chaos under far-left leadership to position themselves as saviors in 2028. Clay and Buck stress that Democrats need star power and name recognition to win nationally, dismissing moderates like Andy Beshear as too bland for the modern political landscape. Listeners call in to vent frustrations about New York politics, with some advocating for Curtis Sliwa to stay in the race and others arguing Republicans should let NYC “sink beneath the waves of communism.” Callers share real-world anecdotes about crime, fare evasion, and mass migration from NYC to Long Island and New Jersey, underscoring fears that Mamdani’s policies—such as free buses—will worsen homelessness and strain city services.  The discussion expands to foreign investment in NYC real estate, skyrocketing rents, and the long-standing trend of oligarchs using Manhattan property to shield assets.  Clay and Buck also tackle cultural contradictions within the left, highlighting the “unholy alliance” between progressive activists and Islamist sympathizers, questioning how identity politics can reconcile support for LGBTQ rights with pro-Palestinian movements that endorse Sharia law. They predict these fractures will intensify in coming years. The Sickness Fallout from the “No Kings” protest and its deeper cultural implications. Clay opens by contrasting the protest with the overwhelming victory of President Donald Trump in the 2024 election, noting that Democrats—despite their rhetoric—are the real “party of kings” given their history of rigging primaries for Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, and Kamala Harris. He critiques the protest as a relic of 1960s activism, dominated by aging hippies clinging to outdated ideals, but warns of a more troubling trend: younger radicals embracing violence. Clay highlights a disturbing viral video of a Chicago elementary school teacher at the protest gleefully mimicking the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. He argues this behavior reflects a dangerous cultural sickness, questioning how such individuals remain employed while schools enforce strict moral standards against legal but controversial side jobs like OnlyFans modeling. This sparks a broader discussion on morals clauses for educators, with Clay asserting that celebrating political violence should be grounds for immediate termination.

Clay and Buck dissect the explosive controversy surrounding front-runner Zohran Mamdani, who was recently photographed campaigning alongside an Imam linked to the 1993 World Trade Center bombing and pro-jihad rhetoric.

Hour 3 - The Sickness

Hour 3 - The Sickness

2025-10-2044:12

Hour 3 dives into the fallout from the “No Kings” protest and its deeper cultural implications. Clay opens by contrasting the protest with the overwhelming victory of President Donald Trump in the 2024 election, noting that Democrats—despite their rhetoric—are the real “party of kings” given their history of rigging primaries for Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, and Kamala Harris. He critiques the protest as a relic of 1960s activism, dominated by aging hippies clinging to outdated ideals, but warns of a more troubling trend: younger radicals embracing violence. Clay highlights a disturbing viral video of a Chicago elementary school teacher at the protest gleefully mimicking the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. He argues this behavior reflects a dangerous cultural sickness, questioning how such individuals remain employed while schools enforce strict moral standards against legal but controversial side jobs like OnlyFans modeling. This sparks a broader discussion on morals clauses for educators, with Clay asserting that celebrating political violence should be grounds for immediate termination. The hour then pivots to economic news, celebrating a booming stock market nearing record highs and gas prices hitting a four-year low, signaling strong performance under Trump’s leadership. Clay also revisits the shocking Louvre crown jewels heist, mocking France’s inability to secure its most prized artifacts and tying the story to broader themes of declining masculinity and security in Western nations. Listeners weigh in on the New York City mayoral race, where Zohran Mamdani remains the overwhelming favorite according to polls and prediction markets. Clay reiterates that Curtis Sliwa and Andrew Cuomo have virtually no chance unless Sliwa exits the race, framing Mamdani’s likely win as both a disaster for NYC and a potential catalyst for future Republican gains statewide. He cites a surprising statistic: New York was closer to flipping red in 2024 than Texas or Florida were to turning blue, suggesting an opening for GOP figures like Elise Stefanik in 2026. The hour closes with a fiery and humorous debate sparked by a caller defending teachers moonlighting as strippers. Clay pushes back, arguing that while legal, such jobs violate community standards for educators. The exchange underscores broader cultural tensions over morality, free speech, and professional boundaries in an era of political polarization.

From Zohran Mamdani’s push for higher taxes to the billion dollar “mental health” boondoggles that never deliver, Buck breaks down how the bureaucracy feeds itself while New Yorkers get slimed. He also takes aim at JB Pritzker’s absurd swipe at Stephen Miller and explains why the left keeps doubling down on bad ideas that drive productive people out of blue states.

David “Rut” Rutherford takes you inside the deepest chambers of human suffering — personal loss, combat trauma, addiction, divorce, the death of friends, and the quiet agony that lives in every home. He explores the concept of a “Hierarchy of Suffering” — how we rank pain, compare trauma, and how faith, brotherhood, and purpose can reshape that hierarchy and keep us moving forward. From combat veterans and custody battles to Christ on the cross and Nietzsche’s philosophy, Rut asks the haunting question: 👉 How do we carry the weight without collapsing beneath it? This episode is not about despair — it’s about shared pain, empathy, resilience, faith, and continuing the mission.

In this episode, Tudor sits down with Steve Hilton to break down how decades of Democrat dominance have driven California into decline—from skyrocketing homelessness and stifling regulations to election integrity concerns and failed disaster recovery. Hilton explains why California’s collapse is a warning for the rest of America and outlines how conservatives can fight back, rebuild communities, and make the Golden State thrive again. They also discuss the growing influence of women in politics and why grassroots Republican engagement is key to real change.

A deep dive into President Donald Trump’s historic 36-hour diplomatic marathon and the groundbreaking Gaza peace deal. Clay and Buck open the hour by contrasting Trump’s high-energy international diplomacy with Joe Biden’s limited schedule, highlighting Trump’s whirlwind trip to Israel and Egypt, his speeches to the Knesset, meetings with world leaders, and the signing of a landmark ceasefire agreement that secured the release of all Israeli hostages and nearly 2,000 Palestinian detainees. The hosts emphasize that this achievement positions Trump as a dominant figure in Middle East peace negotiations—surpassing past presidents from Carter to Obama. The discussion features reactions from unlikely sources: left-leaning media figures and celebrities such as Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel, and Joe Scarborough, who publicly acknowledged Trump’s success. Clay and Buck play clips from CNN, MSNBC, and prominent Democrats praising Trump’s role in brokering peace, noting how even Trump’s fiercest critics are conceding victory. They explore whether this diplomatic triumph will resonate with everyday Americans or remain a major news story without shifting public opinion, particularly among Jewish voters. The conversation touches on cultural and political dynamics within the Jewish community, analyzing whether Trump’s achievement could influence voting trends. President Donald Trump meets with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to push for a ceasefire and a lasting peace agreement in the Russia-Ukraine war.  Clay and Buck discuss Trump’s role as mediator between Zelensky and Vladimir Putin, comparing the dynamic to high-stakes negotiations and emphasizing Trump’s unique ability to command respect from global adversaries. Zelensky’s remarks underscore the need for security guarantees and bilateral agreements, while Trump signals a potential diplomatic breakthrough. The conversation shifts to economic leverage in the conflict, with Trump announcing that India will stop buying Russian oil, a move that could cripple Moscow’s ability to skirt sanctions. Clay and Buck explain how India’s previous role as a middleman for Russian energy exports helped Putin evade penalties, and why cutting off this lifeline could reshape the war’s trajectory. Trump also hints at military deterrence, mentioning Tomahawk missiles as part of U.S. support for Ukraine, while stressing his goal to end the war without escalating to direct strikes.

Hitler didn't call his followers "Nazis" nor "Fascists" (Hitler called them SOCIALISTS). Sexton is so ignorant he is unaware that Hitler's flag symbol meant "S for SOCIALIST" (a top discovery by Professor Rex Curry). Buck Sexton is ignorant of Hitler's vocabulary as shown 9-30-2025 in his radio show (usually with Clay Travis) regarding teachers wearing paperclips in Norway. Hitler's flag is an IQ test. Sexton flunked. For proof just “describe the letters (and words) shown in the German symbols used for the groups NSV, SA, SS & VW" (Sexton flunks the description test and thereby shows he knows Dr. Curry is correct). Review Sexton's past podcasts & see that he has NEVER said, "Hitler did not call his followers 'Nazis' nor 'Fascists'." Stop misgendering Hitler, Sexton. Respect Hitler's preferred pronoun (SOCIALIST).

Kirk’s recent assassination exposed how Americans are so stupid they are unaware that Hitler did not call his followers "Nazis" nor "Fascists" (he called them "SOCIALISTS"). Hitler's flag meant "S for SOCIALIST" (a top discovery by Historian Dr. Rex Curry). Republicans repeat the linguistic lies of socialists. You won't hear any Republicans say "Hitler self-identified the same as Kirk’s assassin and the scum who applauded Kirk's killer: SOCIALIST" nor “Hitler did not call his comrades Nazis nor Fascists”

Texas could become her own country because we have every resource we need. Choose who we trade with. Drugs have been been smuggled and see trafficking for Decades.
