Summary

AG Letitia James Deflects

Hour 1 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show dives into several pressing topics, starting with a discussion on immigration and crime. The hosts criticize Maryland Sen. Chris Van Hollen for meeting with a deported gang member from El Salvador, Kilmar Abrego Garcia, highlighting the broader issue of illegal immigration and its impact on American society. They reference a poll showing that 56% of Americans support deporting all illegal immigrants, emphasizing the public's stance on this contentious issue.

The conversation shifts to the COVID-19 pandemic, marking the five-year anniversary of the initial lockdowns. The hosts encourage listeners to visit covid.gov, pointing out the conflicting guidance on masks and the origins of the virus, which they claim leaked from a Chinese lab. They call for accountability for the misinformation spread during the pandemic, particularly targeting Dr. Fauci.

Next, the show addresses the legal troubles of New York Attorney General Letitia James. The hosts discuss allegations of mortgage fraud against her, questioning her integrity and calling for her resignation. They compare her situation to other high-profile cases of mortgage fraud, suggesting that political motivations are at play.

Actions speak louder than words

The hosts also touch on the divisive case of a 17-year-old stabbed to death, Austin Metcalf, at a track meet in Frisco, Texas by Karmelo Anthony. They criticize the defense team's narrative and the public's reaction, highlighting the racial tensions surrounding the case. The discussion underscores the broader societal issues of race and justice.

Mike Gallagher and the Covid reckoning

Former Congressman Mike Gallagher, now the head of defense at Palantir, joined Clay and Buck to discuss covid accountability and the lab leak cover-up. Gallagher also talks about the technological advancements in defense and the role of American companies in supporting the military. He emphasizes the need for a diverse ecosystem of defense technology companies to maintain the United States' strategic edge. Gallagher also touches on the cultural and political challenges facing America, advocating for a return to common sense and truth in public discourse.

Buck's great Rush story

A special anniversary, marking 11 years since Buck Sexton first filled in for Rush Limbaugh. Buck shares a personal story about the challenges he faced that day, including losing his voice and receiving a last-minute steroid shot to perform on air. This nostalgic segment highlights the significance of that moment in Buck's career and the support from his family.  His mom was his hero that fateful day and enlisted in the help of a special doctor that works with Opera singers.
