Welcome in Tuesday edition, Clay Travis Buck Sexton Show. We've got a fun one headed your way as we continue to discuss the fallout. of Majuro being seized in Venezuela. We are expecting for there to be, I believe, another out there of the Tim Walz press conferences as his political career is in shambles. We will discuss all of that with you and more. We'll also open up phone lines. We didn't take very many calls. Your talkbacks as well to allow you to ask the questions that you may have surrounding everything.

having to do with the Venezuela situation, as well as maybe the Tim Walz continued fallout, because if Venezuela hadn't happened, the Minnesota fraud story and the fact that Tim Walz has gone from, what, 240,000 votes away from being vice president, a heartbeat away from the presidency, to basically having his complete political career be over. And I don't know about you buck on this. But let's kind of dive in. Do you agree with me that if Kamala Harris hadn't picked Tim Walz, he probably runs for governor again, gets elected. People don't really pay that much attention to the Minnesota fraud situation, just because Minnesota is not typically the focal point of any major national news stories. And yes, the fraud would have still existed. It would have been indefensible, but it wouldn't have been out there in the public arena to such an extent. And so Tim Walz would have gotten reelected and he would have continued right on with the path that he was already on. Yes, in a twist of irony, the guy who Democrats put forward to be the avatar of American masculinity. is losing his political future after, one, people questioning whether he was a good avatar of that masculinity, broadly mocking him, and two, he is a household name now because of his short and ill-fated run, and therefore the wild corruption that has been unearthed in Minneapolis is a much bigger story because the governor of Minneapolis, Tim Walz, is a national figure, which you would not have been before. I mean, if I sat here right now and asked everybody, if you don't live in the state of Idaho, who's the governor of Idaho, everybody? Everybody knows the governor of Minnesota, though. No, by the way, no shade to the governor of Idaho. I think he's a Republican, but I'm with you. I don't know who the governor of Idaho is. He might be listening right now. We love Idaho, and we've always been a big fan of your work to celebrate your entire catalog, in fact. You know, when you look at that, I think it's also emblematic. Did you send out a tweet I think I saw where you're just like, what if Democrats are just horribly wrong about everything? And I do think there's a lot of truth to that. But to me, the Tim Walz's entire experience is indicative of the fact that Democrats, by and large, look at voters like zoo animals. They have to go out in the wild. They look at men. And they think, you know, in the same way, was it Diane Fosse, who was, I think, one of the great primatologists, if that's a war? You're talking about guerrillas in the mist? And there was Jane Goodall with the chimpanzees, yes. They would go out and they would sit in the wild and they would observe what the chimpanzees did, what the guerrillas did in an effort to understand how their society works. Democrats now are like that with men. I'm not kidding about this. They sit there and they've got their notepad out and they say, you know what we need? We need a older white guy who wears cowboy boots and Carhart and knows how to go out and walk around with a gun and he used to coach high school football. And you put all this together and it's like they're trying to create an AI avatar of what they think is going to be.

Good chance that if you're wondering who could hang the picture frame and get it done with the tool belt and all the things, I think Gretchen Whitmer might beat out Tim Walz. If you're looking for someone to choreograph your next... Gretchen Roger Wicker of Chicago, I would say Tim Walz is your guy. Gretchen Whitmer might be better at home repair than either you or I. Oh, no, she definitely is. I take no. If my in-laws are listening, every time my father-in-law shows up here to visit, it's like a trade. He gets to see his grandchild and his daughter, and I get to present him with the list of things in the house that are broken that I don't know how to fix. It's great. It works out. Laura is the same way. My father-in-law can fix everything. He's an engineer. And, you know, he just shows up. And by the way, he's about to be 80, happy early 80th birthday to my father-in-law. And he's still infinitely better at fixing anything in the house. So look, I'm not claiming that. At least you drive way too fast like a maniac and are ready for the F1 circuit. I drive slow. This is why I have to go in my free time and shoot lots of guns and do tactical training on the weekends to make up for my inability to change a light bulb and driving like a little old lady. Yeah, you know, you're driving like Miss Daisy is definitely, I was doing all this. I actually thought about this. He should just say, thank you, Buck, for keeping me safe. But instead, I get all this. You know, when they were talking about the CIA agents who were in Venezuela, officers, I always get that wrong. But the CIA officers who are in Venezuela, I was thinking to myself. You know, this could have been a job for Buck, but hopefully they were never chased because if they were, he would have gotten caught and captured just like that because the guy can't, he has no evasive driving skills. He would be obeying whatever the speed limits are. And as a result, we might not have gotten Maduro just because you don't drive fast enough. It's called going low profile, low viz. You obey the local traffic ordinances so you don't arouse suspicion, Clay. That's how highly trained I am. They would think that I'm a retiree on vacation there. They would never suspect. How many Americans are there in Venezuela, by the way? Do we know, like, actually in Venezuela right now? I mean, the number is. A lot less now than, I mean, obviously right now particularly, but it's been going down and down for a long time. I mean, the State Department has had a do not travel order up for Venezuela for quite some time, I think. So it hasn't been a probably don't go. It's a don't go. This is my boys are not going to shock you that as soon as we raided Venezuela, my boys are super sports fans. One of my sons said, Is Ronald Acuna okay? Ronald Acuna is the star Venezuelan baseball player of the Atlanta Braves. And a lot of, I mean, this is true, a lot of baseball players in the offseason go to Venezuela. Weather's perfect. Baseball is hugely popular there. And so there are a lot of Major League Baseball players in Venezuela, I think, right now before spring training starts next month. Maybe Venezuela.

We decide, we get, look, you can't make him citizens. They're not Americans. They're, they're Latinos. But, you know, maybe we, maybe Zarr Miller. I don't know if he's officially being called that yet, but Stephen Miller in the White House. If, in fact, he gets the Venezuela portfolio, we move toward Venezuela becomes like Guam, but a lot bigger and with a lot more oil. Like, you're not, you're not voting. Exactly, like the U.S. Virgin Islands, except the lot bigger. I know all about territorial law. By the way, cleaning up a couple of things. We are big fans of, let's make sure that I get this right. We are big fans of Brad Little. current governor of Idaho, no one, no one bigger fans than us. Let's make sure you get it right because you've been thinking about Brad a lot lately, yes. I have. I've been thinking we need to talk about the job Brad's doing in Idaho. You know what the truth is, though? Can I just a really quick claim? The reason we don't talk about Brad a lot here is because Idaho is a great state and he's obviously doing a great job. So because he's not the focus of commentary is a good thing. GROC, I don't know how much you use GROC now. All the time. It's unbelievable. For me, it's amazing. I love it. uh grok says that there and if you have not this is worth getting on twitter x by itself i am stunned by how effective it is at just giving me basic facts like yesterday i was looking up we'll talk about it a little bit later but i was looking up the number of murders in washington dc you can go on twitter hit the grock symbol and you can just say hey tell me how many murders there have been graphically from 1970 in Washington, D.C. to the present day. Wait like 45 seconds a minute, boom, all of the data right there in front of you. Grok says there are 10,000 Americans roughly that are living in Venezuela right now, according to recent estimates. Right. Small number when you consider the size of Venezuela, and I wonder what it would be comparatively say to Colombia next door, so we can grok that one. By the way, Clay, in retrospect now, given that maybe Stephen Miller can bring about the territorial dispensation of Venezuela for us, I'm not saying he's going to do that. It's just a fun idea. We should talk about Greenland, which I don't think is entirely a joke. I still think that there is an interesting conversation that is being had about people say it belongs to Denmark. Okay. Why? The Greenlanders are not Danes. What is Denmark done for Greenland? Does Greenland get a say in this? It's a big piece of territory. And also, just because you're a civil war nerd, self-described. People forget this. Ulysses Grant had a great plan. He wanted to make the Dominican Republic. You're talking about baseball before. He wanted to make the Dominican Republic a U.S. territory and got shot down by the Senate. First of all, there are a lot of decisions we made surrounding territories that I think were wrong.

I think in like the first year of this show, four or five years ago, I said, we should go into Cuba and we should end this absurdity. I'm going to re, I'm going to re bring that back up. Double down, triple down, quadruple down, whatever is necessary. We should right now, in this year of 2026, end the fact that Cuba is a communist country and return basic freedoms to Cuba, to your point, on territories. I would even suggest that we should look at what we've done with Puerto Rico and with the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, as you mentioned, and consider making Cuba a territory of the United States. Not a full part of the citizenry. You're not voting. You don't have a congressional representation, but just a protectorate of sorts. To me, that is something that should significantly be looked at. Think about the deal that we've gotten in other places. I mean, Guam is one example. They get U.S. military protection. We put bases there. They don't ever have to worry about foreign relations, foreign invasion, anything like that. They get infrastructure. They get rule of law. They get access to, you know, American markets, et cetera. It's not a bad deal. We already have the huge base at Guantanamo. And thanks to Colonel Jessup, we still have it. We needed him on that wall. He was actually the unsung hero of that movie in so many ways. That's a conversation for another time. All right, this may be the time. This may be the year that you join me in something very important. gold and owning some gold every indication is that gold is going to continue to grow this year and this is because of global instability we're just talking about some of that stuff but also all the money printing that's happening it's not going to stop and owning gold as part of your savings plan your 401k or IRA it just makes sense and birch gold group is who i trust you're going to like working with these people i've purchased gold from them And until January 30th, if you're a first time gold buyer, Birch Gold is offering a rebate of up at $10,000 on qualifying purchases.

Hey, it's Ryan Reynolds here for MintMobil. Now, I was looking for fun ways to tell you that Mint's offer of unlimited premium wireless for $15 a month is back. So I thought it would be fun if we made $15 bills. But it turns out that's very illegal. So there goes my big idea for the commercial. Give it a try at mintmobile.com slash switch. Up from payment of $45 for three months, $90 for six months, or $180 for 12-month plan required, $15 per month equivalent. Taxes and fees extra. Initial plan term only greater than 50 gigabytes, me slow when network is busy. See terms. Welcome in everybody to the second hour of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton show. You know, Clay, sometimes it's funny because I have in my head a story that I think we're going to end up talking about. And then it... Changes rapidly because of events. And one of those unfolded in the last 24 hours where there was a report out there, because you could say an allegation, that a Hilton-branded hotel was canceling the reservations of anybody who works for Immigrations and Customs Enforcement, just like... Everyday folks, government employees, when they travel to places, they don't have homes everywhere, they stay in hotels. And there was this report out about a Hilton hotel that had turned, not just refused to take a residence, but canceled active reservations of some ice contingent. And it came from, I believe, officially, or initially the official DHS account saying that this happened. So they go right to the people with this stuff now. I mean, this Trump administration doesn't hold back. It was amazing to see how quickly, to Hilton's credit, now I think they understand what's at stake here, but Hilton hotels, man, they were, the comms, they were on it.

They, right away publicly, this is absolutely not our policy. We would never do such a thing. We are open as a hotel for all who wish to stay. And, you know, they went and they said, we are looking into this right away. And then they said, it's a franchisee. People forget this, that there's often, you know, these big brands. You have to play by certain rules. You're a franchisees. You independently operate it under the overall corporate umbrella. So there's kind of limited, there's not really direct oversight, there's some oversight, but it was a franchisee hotel. And Hilton, do you see, the latest thought of Clay was that Hilton hotels came out, I think it was either last night or early this morning, to just say, you know what, this franchisee told us they fixed it, they didn't fix it, they're no longer a Hilton hotel. This was in less than 24 hours. I just think that this is indicative of how much the vibe, as the kids say, has changed now in corporate America where the second that anyone starts to get a width. that you think that half the country should go stuff it and that they're, you know, you don't want their business if they're going to vote for Trump or whatever. Oh, the days of half the country sitting back quietly and letting that stuff fly are long since gone. Well, I think this is the legacy of Bud Light, which is why I think the Bud Light story is going to linger for years and years to come. Look. Michael Jim Jordan had it right, Buck. Republicans buy sneakers too. Back in the day, they tried to get Michael Jim Jordan to be super political, and he said, no, I'm not going to do that. And he gave the quote, Republicans buy sneakers too. That means that maybe he had Democratic leanings, but he wasn't going to get involved. And as a result, you know what the legacy of Michael Jim Jordan is? He's the most popular athlete in the entire country. Still, he sells more Jordans, his sneakers. than any current NBA player does combined. The Air Jim Jordan brand is more valuable than every current NBA player combined. Tiger Woods took the same approach. Tiger Woods basically said, look, I want to be the greatest golfer that has ever lived. Now, he didn't beat Jack Nicholas in overall majors. I think he just turned 50. Happy birthday, Tiger Woods. You're listening. And Tiger made the decision that he wanted to have the same level of appeal. And I just, it seems very basic to me. If I ran a company that was desirous of trying to appeal to everyone, which most companies are.

Why would you alienate half the country? It never made any sense to me. It always seemed like a really short-sighted plan. I just thought it was so interesting because, and I pulled this up, it was from the official Homeland Security account initially. And so Homeland Security account called this out. Like the comms for DHS said, we're getting reports about this. And they called it No Room at the Inn, all in caps. And Hilton, you know, there was a time when I think at best what you could hope for would have been the overall, now Hilton is a true global brand and, you know, it's been around a long time and so people know it. There was a time when I think the best you could have hoped for would have been. uh we have you know read this report and we're going to look into it and they would sort of just hope that it goes away and that's it maybe they would have even gone to the other direction and said you know well we believe that like you know in borders uh the borders shouldn't exist and all people are people and no one is illegal there was a time when some corporations in recent memory would have done that i think major corporations i think like you know disney might have done that depending on the uh the day But in this case, Hilton came out with right away all that they could bring to the public conversation about this to squelch this story and set it straight and say, we absolutely do not do this, would not do this, and we will hold those who do it under our banner accountable. That is, you know, we've started to get a little use to this, guys. It's only been a year. That is a massive, massive corporate sea change in attitude and behavior from a big brand like that when clearly this is because it's Trump's ICE, Trump's policies, that's the whole thing. under the Biden administration, you know, people even still thought they could get away with all kinds of nonsense like this. I think it's also reflective of an unfortunate reality, which is most business leaders are cowards and they go whatever the direction is that the wind is blowing. And for a long time, the way that they would lose their jobs was by not seeming left wing enough. So if you remember in 2020 in the summer, Remember when every brand that you ever bought anything from suddenly had to email you to let you know what they thought about Black Lives Matter? And you were sitting around and you were just like, hey, I just want to buy some kitty litter. I don't need to know what my pet food company thinks about geopolitics. And yet everybody felt compelled to send you those messages. A lot of those same CEOs knew it was BS then, but they were concerned about protecting their own jobs. Now, because Trump won.

they can go back and try to address what they knew to be ridiculous for a long time. And I think the math on it is pretty clear, right? I mean, if you're Hilton or Hyatt, I always get those two mixed up. I don't know, which I can't tell the difference. Probably not helping me for us getting a big hotel chain sponsorship here. But you should want everybody under the sun. Democrats, Republicans, independents, people who don't vote. Everybody should be your target market. And I give them credit. I think you're right. They looked into this. They got back to it fast and they said, we're not going to allow this to occur. This guy is no longer one of our franchisees. The people who decided to send Bud Light a message, to your point, message received by corporate America. It says doesn't Bud Light now, who did they have with the MMA and they've gone out or like some right-wing community? It still hasn't come back because. Maybe it's going to take years. No, no, but I just mean that the steps that they take and rebuild the brand. They spent, God knows how much money on the UFC. They have spent, God knows how much money. I mean, you can't watch a college football or NFL game without Bud Light commercials everywhere. Look, the most toxic thing that you can have, if you are a brand that is trying to appeal to men. is the idea that you're cool with dudes pretending to be chicks. Like, and everybody just said, yeah, we're not going to do this and stop drinking the beer almost overnight. Well, you can unpack this really quickly, right? Why do the Democrats have such a problem with masculinity? This was the big question going into the last election because the polling, the data all showed that that is, that is an issue for them. If you have a guy, I don't care who it is. You can have a, you know, a jacked. Three Tor, Super Soldier, you know, whatever the ultimate and masculinity is in your mind. If you sit there and you have him say, in earnestness, not ironically or kidding, I'm a male feminist and I believe that men don't have an advantage over women in sports, you instantly think that this guy is a wuss. Instantly. Yes. There's no way around this. It doesn't matter who you are. You can have the top, you know, NBA or NFL athlete in the world. Sit down, look you in the face and say that, and you're like, oh, so you're just a coward. So you actually don't have balls to borrow from a great book. You don't have balls. I mean, it is. And I think it's why it had such cultural resonance in 2024, because most people, it's very complicated what the tax code should be. We were talking about off-air. It looks like Trump was right about tariffs. There now is a huge study I'm reading in the Wall Street Journal this morning as I'm getting ready, saying actually we went back and looked at 100 plus years of data and there is no evidence of a substantial degree that inflation follows tariffs. despite the fact that every economist in the country told you, oh, my God, if Trump does these tariffs, then the inflation is going to go through the roofs. And they were wrong. And a lot of economists, they're looking around saying now, like, how do we all get this so wrong? And by the way, a lot of the same economists said, we could print as much money as possible. Remember, Buck, it wasn't very long ago, 2021.

when they suddenly said, hey, modern monetary theory is this new thing and there's no cost associated with just printing way more money. And you and I remember coming on saying, I think there's actually pretty good history that when you print too much of your currency, that the value collapses. And there was this idea out there that Biden bought into that you could basically print as much money. And there were going to be no consequences when it came to inflation. And then boom. within a year we're at 9% and we're still trying to deal with the fact of that incompetence. This is where common sense is seemingly less common than we would want it to be. If you can print any money and it doesn't matter and you'll just deal with it and you'll buy whatever you want and get whatever you want with it, we should just set up for every American. Yes. A bank account put a million dollars in it. Yes. If that's a problem, why is it a problem? Well, once you establish why that's clearly a problem, you understand why a soon to be $40 trillion in debt and spending trillions more than we take in every year is also a problem. Right? So it's very straightforward stuff. On the tariffs issue, I will apply the same common sense. This is what we kept saying on the show, Clay. Okay, somehow every other country in the world, every other, Canada, the UK, all the other countries in the world, including the ones that are closest to us, culturally, legally, et cetera, have tariffs in place. Why is it that they're so dumb that they just want to do something that doesn't benefit them and raises prices for them for no apparent reason? Now, you can say, oh, no, Buck, we recognize that, no, no, the people who were anti-tariffs suggested there was really no upside to it either, that it was just a bad idea, it was just downside, you don't even really protect effectively because of the global marketplace, your domestic industry. But, Clay, I go back to the common sense man, the normie, if you will, the same normie that's asking, are Democrats just wrong about everything? Narrator voice, yes, they are. Why is everyone else doing this if it's so stupid? Every other country in the world. Some like China doing it very aggressively and getting very rich while they do so. Yes. No, I mean, look, this is now here's the downside. I do think the Supreme Court might say the president doesn't have authority to implement all of the tariffs that he has implemented. So like we can sit here and say Trump was right about the tariff front again. And he's bringing in, I think he's on pace now to bring in $600 billion in tariff revenue in 2026 if the tariffs were allowed to continue. And he was going to put that money towards helping to pay down the debt. And by the way. 4.3% growth at the end of the third quarter as we're headed into the end of 2025. There is the possibility out there that if growth is around 5%, that I don't know. I've heard anybody else say this, that the budget could start with in conjunction with the tariffs, that the budget could start to come close to being balanced in 2026 and 2027.

Now, that's a very positive. That's if the economy continues to expand, if continues to grow, and the Supreme Court says the tariffs are allowed to be upheld. I'm not convinced that they are. And so that could turn into a huge mess because how do you give back all the money that was taken in through the tariffs? I mean, I think that's one of the challenges of the Supreme Court. is grappling with as they try to break down that going forward. In the meantime, tap to pay, popular way to pay with a credit card.

I have gone to war with the state of New Mexico unexpectedly today. I hope that all of you living in, I don't even know, is New Mexico the frontier state? So don't dig me into this hole with you. Don't start asking me New Mexico trivia, so I have to take the incoming on this one. I want to say something nice about New Mexico. One of my college roommates lives there, and I've been to Albuquerque, and what I remember is that they have a lot of honey that they put on burritos. And that sounds like something that doesn't make a lot of sense, but it actually tastes very good. So I would miss the honey on the burritos if we let New Mexico go back to Mexico and if we ended up with better states instead. So that is the land of enchantment is what New Mexico is. I thought it was the frontier state. That's the last guy, I guess. But we are having a lot of fun, Venezuela talk, Tim Walz talk. Oh, no.

Jim Wall's talk is always great and fantastic. Do you, can we, since we're already talking about states that you want to give away, you are willing to trade. Trade. Trade away. Trade away. Not giving. Not giveaway. I want something better in exchange for them, but I'm willing to barter them, trade them. Well, what are we trading for New York City being destroyed by Zohran Mamdani? Just the knowledge that communism never works? Well, we're going to have a bigger House majority and maybe add a couple of Senate seats. So it makes me sad that all of you in, you know, New York City, just New York City. I mean, I bet Long Island's going to be nicer. I bet Westchester's going to be nicer. But those of you, maybe Staten Island because it's protected and has its own island, maybe it will be okay. But Manhattan in particular, Brooklyn, Queens, all of you are done. I'm sorry. You just sink beneath the waves like Atlantis. And the rest of the country just goes right on. I saw where, who was it? David Sachs came out and said, Miami's going to replace New York City as the financial capital of the United States. Did you see that prediction from him? The idea that is, yeah, the idea that's out there now is that South Florida, it's really Miami and the 95 corridor up to Palm Beach in that area, West Palm, Palm Beach, and on down is going to become a major global financial hub and that there will be a move also of these California billionaires to Texas. Yes. For the tech hub. I think he's right. There is some momentum behind both of those things. This is already going on in some ways. So, yeah. I think that, look. I do believe that one of the biggest legacies of COVID is going to be that a lot of people became aware that they could live anywhere in the country and indeed all over the world and they would not actually lose the ability to do their job at a high level. And so if you have made that risk-taking test that you would never have tried on your own, right? If you make a million dollars a year and you are a super successful New York City investment banker. You would have never said, hey, let me see if I can still do my job just as well. I'm going to risk it move to Miami or I'm going to move to Houston or I'm going to move to Nashville where I live. A lot of those guys did it. And now they're looking around and they're saying, why would I pay 14% in state income taxes, much like Buck yourself, if you can do your job just as well. And oh, by the way, also live potentially in a more hospitable environment to raise a family, as I think most people would say. Hey, Texas, Tennessee, Florida, does that feel like a better place to raise a family to a lot of people than New York City or L.A. or Chicago? I think a lot of people are saying yes, and they're moving. And so I do think culturally, when David Sacks said that, kind of made me raise my eyebrows a little bit. And I'm not 100% sold on the idea necessarily. But man, every time I come down to see you in Miami, the number of buildings going up.

It is extraordinary to see the amount of building that is going on in South Florida. And the property, what people are paying to live in South Florida now, the amount of wealth that is relocating. And then I think what you're going to see is the state of New York and California and Illinois, as they lose some of those rich residents, they're going to have to raise taxes and that's going to accelerate the departure of other people. And so I think the end result is going to be that much like Atlantis, New York City is going to sink beneath the waters, and the rest of us are going to benefit from your destruction. Well, I'm not going to sit here downing mint juleps, okay, a la Mr. Tennessee, Clay Travis over there while New York just slips into New York Harbor and while Manhattan disappears. I'm going to help you fight. Fight the madness that is momdanism, which has already showed up in all kinds of ways here. Let's start with this one, Clay. This is a flashback. Zohran Mamdani's tenant director is someone named, I think, Sia Weaver. I don't know, I guess that's how you say her first name. I think this is super important. We should mention this because this always comes up. It's not just Zohran Mamdani. It's who he puts into so many of these positions. And he's picking a lot of crazy people. Wackos. He's building a wacko brigade around him, which is a really, really bad sign of what's going to be happening here. Here is, this is a flashback in this video to. Zohran Mamdani's tenant director, talk, I want to just listen to the words she uses when she's talking about people being able to own and rent homes in New York. Play 19. I think the reality is, is that for centuries, we've really treated property as an individualized good and not a collective good. And we are going to, and transitioning to treating it as, um, A collective good and towards a model of shared equity will require that we think about it differently. And it will mean that families, especially white families, but some POC families who are homeowners as well, are going to have a different relationship to property than the one that we currently have. Okay. So first off, before we dive into the insanity here. ironclad rule you cannot give anyone authority in anything who does this up talking thing who does this thing where she starts talking up at the end of sentences like it was a collective good and now we're going to treat it like it's uh or it was you know you you know what i'm saying that's always a huge that's a huge red flag you don't want to listen to anybody about anything important who does the up talk thing at the end of sentences i'm just telling you

It's true. You don't want this person operating on your heart. You don't want them collecting, you know, rent. You don't want them doing anything of any importance for you. That's part one. Part two, notice that you has to just be like, yeah, we're just going to hurt white families more because, you know, private property rights aren't really a thing. This is how these lunatics speak behind closed doors. And they're not supposed to be able to fool enough people to have any political power, but Zohran Mamdani did. You asked the question, which I think is a really good one. What if Democrats are just wrong about everything? It's not just Democrats, though. It's the base of the Democrat Party that is driving all of this insanity. And do you know who the base of the Democrat Party is? White women. White women are highly educated white women, have bought into everything that is wrong in America. and they aggressively put in place policies that are utterly wrong on all fronts. I just, I look at it, and I know every time I say this, we get, you know, it's like, it reminds me of the, what was the Chris Rock joke he used to tell, where women would sing along to really degrading rap lyrics. And they would be like, he's not talking about me. And he's like, he's saying your name. You know, like it's a great line. If you ever would go out to a bar, rap lyrics very degrading to women and all the women are dancing around like crazy, you know, rapping along with the lyrics. And whenever I say this, white women are like, not me? I'm not it. Yeah, okay. But as a percentage, overwhelmingly the most destructive force in America today. is white women. Left wing, and frankly, unmarried white women. Unmarried. Unmarried white women is really the demographic you're talking about, buddy. But they are destroying the country, and they're wrong on every single issue. And the scary thing, I bet this chick that we're playing the audio from, I bet she's an unmarried white woman, God forbid if she's got a husband. Poor bastard. But I will tell you right now, The scary thing to me, Buck, is not being wrong because, trust me, I've been wrong in a lot. You've been wrong in a lot. Everybody out there has been wrong on a lot. It's not being willing or able to recognize when you are wrong and changing your opinion or changing your lifestyle choices. These crazy unmarried white women are so committed to the destructive belief systems that they have.

that results don't change their opinions. I'm going to tell you, honestly, man, it's just unmarried single women. It's unmarried women in like middle, you know, particularly like late 30s up until their fit. That's. That's the, it's across all races. They've got really bad. Well, young women are wrong like young men are because they're just knuckleheads and they haven't had enough life experience to learn as you age. You start to have a better life perspective and you can adjust in your opinions. So younger people, I think, oftentimes have moronic it takes. I've got all sorts of opinions I had when I was 17 that I was stupid about. The true base by the numbers of the Democrat Party is actually black female voters. That's the absolute locked in base that they have when it comes to voting. But I don't know that black women drive the choices made by the Democrat Party as much as highly educated, unmarried white women do. That's the base. You're talking about who's like the policy director versus who's the base. That's right. You're right. The percentages of people who are going to show up and just vote because they've always voted Democrat, black women are the most loyal Democrat voters. But the people that are actually driving the proverbial bus of the Democrat Party are unmarried white women and they are driving basically the bus off the side of a cliff. And they don't recognize even choices they make in New York City. Zohran Mamdani, if he actually puts in place the policies that he said he's going to do, you know what's going to happen? Women are going to be infinitely more dangerous in the lifestyle choices that they make. You're not going to be able to ride the subway. You're not going to be able to ride the buses. They're actually making choices that are utterly destructive for their own lifestyle, and they're not willing to recognize that they made the choice. Remember the great Sex and the City show back in the day, Buck? There's a line where Charlotte, who I thought was the best. I think that show led women off a cliff. So I would never refer to it as great. I think that show is enormously destructive to a generation of women. I've always believed that. And some chicks thought I was crazy years ago. And now they're like, Buck, you're right. You're like a seer of all things. It is an entertaining show. But I think if it's a lifestyle, but Charlotte at one point has this realization where she's made all these life choices and they've all been wrong. And she has this like meltdown where she says, I chose my choice, I chose my choice, I chose my choice. That is a realization that you made choices in your life that led you to the position where you are. I don't think a lot of these women are capable of logically recognizing that they have chosen the method of their own destruction to use a Ghostbusters reference. They're actually making choices that are utterly destructive to... their lifestyle and there aren't there isn't a recognition of it right it would be different if you thought i just this is something i worry about all the time if you are if you have a consequence of free reality of your world then how can you in some way get people to make rational choices

Well, this is the lack of accountability I was talking about is the centerpiece of the Democrat parties pitch to people, which is that nothing that is in your life that is bad is your fault or could be changed by you. It is other people's fault and the government is there to hurt those people that are the reason you are dissatisfied with things and to give you the things that you think you deserve. That's like the fundamental pitch of the Democrat. It really is just socialism, but they don't call it that. That's what it is. And speaking of socialism, you've got like Zohran Mamdani. You know what? We can come back to this, Clay, but Zohran Mamdani talking about how World Cup tickets for everybody. You know, soccer World Cup tickets? He's the mayor of New York. He's not. He's not emperor of the universe, but if you're a commie, it's the same thing to you. Yeah, we'll play that. I saw that clip that was going viral yesterday. Zohran Mamdani has basically decided that he has to address every single issue every day. The mayor of New York City, I don't know that you really need to call President Trump and give him your opinion on Venezuela, right? I mean, is that really the essence of your decision making?

We've got a bunch of different clips out there. Tim Walz finally took questions. And he refused to resign, says only will he resign over his dead body cut 30. Republicans want to tell you everybody with brown skin is stealing money or that they're not welcome here. They want to do nothing. to improve this state. Their idea of improving this state is being a parrot for Donald Trump agreeing to everything that he agreed with. Well, here's what I'm going to tell you. It ain't happening. I'm not going anywhere. And you can make all your requests for me to resign over my dead body. Will that happen? I will fight this thing until the very end to make this state better. And the question that I think they need to decide is, is when did the guy in the White House resigned? When does he take accountability for what he did? Because it isn't going to happen here in terms of us shying away from making the state better. So you'll get to see me more. The good news is on this is that... I've got no election to look forward to. I've been in front of you. I'll call on who I want to call on. And I'll watch what the press gets written. And we'll make sure that in this state, there's full accountability for everybody. Because buck stops with me. I'm accountable for this. And because of that accountability, I'm not running for office again. But I have a year.

to continue to improve on a record that I think will stand up against anybody's, a record that has made Minnesota better, a record that makes people want to come here, and a record that has respected not only the dignity of people, but the idea of rule of law and camaraderie. Okay. What's interesting here to me in general, is, does it feel like to you the whole, like he tried to start off the argument by saying, oh, this is about racism and this is about coming after people who are brown skin? Does it feel like to you that that argument has just complete, like it used to be you could shut down people really quickly if you said, hey, you know, we got to look at crime and black guys commit more crime than white guys. They're like, oh my God, you know, the Overton window was so small that if you said that, they would say, that's racist of you to notice what basic data shows. And they would try to shut down the conversation. It feels like they've lost that battle now. And I don't know if it's social media just exploiting larger marketplace of ideas conversations, but they're still trying to make it. And it doesn't even work on legacy media anymore. Yes, that's all true, and there's a number of reasons why. I think that Elon Musk's purchase of X is still one of the most important free speech turning points in the 21st century. And I know that for many of you who aren't even on X or never on Twitter, you're like, how can that be? It's the only place at scale. And I know some of you're going to tell me truth and whatever, and I appreciate that. But the numbers speak to this. That's a very small... fraction of what you have on X. It's the only place at scale where ideas can be shared and can really take hold of the public consciousness in a way that is not dominated, has not been dominated by left-wing control. We do have Congressman Chip Roy out of Texas with us now. Congressman appreciate you being with us. Great to be with you. Sorry to step out of our chief evening day we have with the president and had to give you all a call, but great to be on. No, I appreciate it. Tell the big guy we sent him a high five. He's doing an amazing job. We give him lots of thanks to him for a great 2025. But we're talking here a little bit, actually, about what's going on in Minnesota, the fraud there. And now people are saying, if it's that bad of Minnesota, what's it look like in California? What's your take on this one, Congressman? Yeah, I mean, look, what we're seeing there is the inevitable outcome of two things, a very broken immigration system, both legal and illegal, that flooded our country, particularly places like Minneapolis with individuals who are, you know, obviously engaging in rampant fraud and taking taxpayer money and basically expanding it and bringing family members over and abusing our immigration system, but it's also the product of a welfare state that is out of control. We had been doling out billions of dollars, hundreds of billions of dollars, nonstop now for years. And it was put on steroids under the Biden administration. And now all of those two things collided to produce this disaster in Minneapolis. Yes, it's bad in California. Remember, by the way, last May, June, when we were working to get the big beautiful bill passed.

Remember those of us who were fighting and saying we needed the Medicaid work requirements and that we needed requirements to clamp down on fraud? Remember we were being saying, well, you're going to take away Medicaid, you're going to make all these. No, we were trying to make sure that only American citizens were able to get that benefit through Medicaid, and we were trying to get rid of fraud. And by the way, Medicaid keeps going up under the big beautiful bill, but we're just trying to tighten down the fraud. Now, we've got miles to go. We're trying to fight through the appropriations process now, working with the president's team at the Office of Management and Budget. Now you've got DOJ and you've got them out there investigating in Minnesota. We need to keep doing it and exposing it. And frankly, all of you people out there that are keyboard warriors looking at this stuff and finding the information, there's a great guy. What is it? OFO Brando. His Twitter account, he's a great Texan, dives into all of these accounts. And they frankly do a lot of workforce to help identify this stuff. So we're going after it and doing the best we can. And we've got to just do more because that fraud is all over the place because of the money that's flowing. You're running for Attorney General of Texas in addition to being a congressman right now. Venezuela, what is the read on oil and gas from somebody who's in a state that knows more about oil and gas than anybody? What is the reaction that you're hearing from the people in the oil and gas industry? What do you think should happen will happen with Venezuela? Well, first of all, the president showed great leadership and what he did engaging in Venezuela. This is not unprecedented. Obviously, Noriego was a precedent legally. I think the president's going to be on strong footing in court, went out and extricated somebody who and brought him here for justice, who'd been indicted for engaging and carrying out criminal activity and organized crime with cartels and putting drugs into our communities. So it was the right thing to do. They're now going to try to make sure that it's stable, let the Venezuelan people do what they need to do to pick their leadership and run their country. But we're going to make sure it's stable first. But remember, they nationalized the oil fields and their oil industry and took a lot of the investments that Americans put in there 10, 20, 30, 40 years ago. And that was a real issue that we've got to now unwind and then make sure now that oil isn't going to our enemies and isn't going to China, isn't going to Iran, isn't going to Russia, and rather as being able to flow into Western Hemisphere. And so I think that's going to happen. I think people I'm talking to in the oil and gas space are excited that we can have some oil supply to help. you know, free up the market. I mean, look, we can produce massive amounts of oil here, but there's always limits to what we can do with our fracking. It's nice to have multi-sources and not be reliant on any one area. So to add the Venezuela supply back into the pipeline, so to speak, is viewed favorably. But also, you know, we need to make sure that we don't have, you know, another situation where we go invest in it and then it gets nationalized again. So president's doing the right thing, but we've got to do a lot of work to make sure that we can rely on it. How concerned are you, Congressman, about the next steps in Venezuela, specifically pertaining to the security and internal, well, it's not a stable place, so stability might be the wrong word, but keeping this place from devolving into a Hobbesian mess, what do you think are the ways forward here, and how do you think the administration is going to be able to handle some of these challenges? Well, first of all, Marco Rubio has been doing a fantastic job, the Secretary of State, in every situation he's been put in. He's great this weekend articulating why this is critical to our national security interests, the Trump doctrine, whatever you want to call it with respect to focusing on the Western Hemisphere to push out our enemies and to increase the relationships and the reliance on other countries in the Western Hemisphere on America and not our enemies, not China, not Russia. These are all things that are critically important. I am concerned about the next steps.

There's a very real concerns. They've got a lot of people in the regime are still in place. There's a lot of corruption that still exists. Moving one guy out of it is a good step, but it's not going to be the whole solution. We've got to work to try to get Venezuela back on its feet and get it back to where it was economically two decades ago. But moving forward to the stronger rule of law and to have a better society that is built on our Republican principles here. I think we've got a lot of work to do, but we can do it. And it's worth it. Okay, this is not the nation building of trying to go build a country over in Iraq, you know, for 20 years where you spend $7 trillion and lose 7,000 men and women and 75,000 injuries, which what we're dealing with here is in our western hemisphere, in our backyard just south of Cuba, a country that is rich with minerals that can be a benefit to our entire civilization over here. but that we need to stabilize. I think the president is doing the right thing, but it's going to take a lot of work. This is not easy. I'm not a big believer in, you know, regime change in nation building. But what we're trying to do here is create stability with an important country in the Western Hemisphere that's important to our national security interests. We're talking to Congressman Chip Roy running for the Attorney General of the State of Texas. When you look at what's happened, Tim Walz, we just played a couple of cuts from him. Press conference availability today is political career is effectively over. What does that tell us about the dwindling power of legacy media when effectively this is a 23-year-old on YouTube who went and did his own investigation into fraud in Minnesota and I think effectively ended Tim Walz's career. How does this change the dynamics of the political universe and also the trajectory of our country? Well, look, I think this is an important moment. And I think we should recognize that. And I've been talking about this quite a bit because when I mentioned a minute ago, right, I wasn't joking when I said that those are the listeners out there, the people who focus on this stuff, they can go do some of this investigative work that helps us with policy because people don't realize that, you know, in a congressional office, right? I mean, I have 14 or 15 staff. Half of them are doing constituent services and, you know, engagement with my constituents. And you've got a handful of policy people and you have to do bills every day. And so it's hard for us to go to the deep dive investigative work. So when we've got support from the outside, which should have been the media, right? The media is supposed to be seeking truth wherever it may lead, right, to quote Thomas Jefferson. They haven't been doing that. They've been an advocate for radical Marxism and leftism. And now you've got people like Nick who went out and did the hard work. you know, on the ground in Minneapolis and Minnesota. And now hopefully we're going to see more of that, see that in California and see that in Texas, right? I mean, there's fraud in Texas, right? I mean, there's fraud in the Medicaid fraud in the Medicaid fraud, that, you know, I want to make sure we're focusing on rooting out all the Medicaid fraud. But I know Texas is better than California and Minneapolis and Minnesota and New York. But we've got to have that. We've got to have people on the outside that are helping us. Again, the founders understood the importance of the freedom of the press. The question is, is who is the press? And right now with technology and with what Elon Musk did with X, it's impressive now what you can allow, what a 23-year-old to your point can do to bring out truth. Again, this is all about seek truth wherever it may lead. That's the goal.

Do you think that there will be accountability, though? A lot of people, Congressman, become very disillusioned with our system when there's this exposure of something like this. And then we're wondering, well, is anyone actually going to go to prison over this? I mean, I saw, I think there's a U.S. Attorney's Office in Atlanta, Georgia is bringing a prosecution against a state rep there for stealing... $15,000, something like that in COVID funds. And they're bringing that prosecution under public integrity. And they're like, look, you're a public official and you're stealing money from the state you live in. That's unacceptable. I see what's going on in Somalia. I'm hearing the people are with the Somalis in Minnesota. And you hear the people are taking the GDP of Somalia from that state in fraud. Is anyone going to go to prison? Yeah, I mean, you make a good point. In fact, I tweeted that out early. I think it was the first maybe to put that out that their GDP is 13 billion, and we're talking about 18 billion of potential fraud. Now that's the potential number. That tweet got 35 million views, by the way, just to be clear about how much people are recognizing this. And I think that's important to your point. Yes, heads need to roll. I am gratified to see that I think I saw something like 1,000 prosecutions that were being discussed in the news reports that I saw this morning or yesterday. You know, look, this takes a little bit of work. You've got to prove up a case. I'm a former federal prosecutor in the U.S. Attorney's Office. And remember, typically our federal laws are not designed for us to have a federal police force and federal prosecutorial force going into states. But where you've got the abuse of federal funds, where you've got the nexus to the fraud of these federal tax dollars flowing, and you have public servants who are engaging in that kind of behavior, there's absolutely room for federal prosecutions. We need to follow the truth wherever it may lead on this stuff, in terms of including state leaders and those that are involved in knowingly and intentionally violating our laws. And we've got to dive into it. And, you know, look, people ask me all the time, why isn't Judge Boasberg being impeached? Well, I agree. He should be. I mean, we should bring it up and we should have the vote. And if some Republicans won't vote for it, then they've got to go answer to their constituents. I think we need to have some votes here on judicial impeachments. I think we need to see prosecutions out of the U.S. attorney's offices. And I hope we will. Last question for you quickly here as we go to break. How much difference is Texas with a completely secured southern border? And privately, do even some Democrats come up to you and say, boy, things are so much better here with a completely secured southern border? Yeah, I mean, I would call a lot of those folks former Democrats, frankly, because of South Texas who have been looking at this going, gosh, I mean, that was ridiculous what we were dealing with, the danger, the fentanyl, the cartels, the criminal activity, the fact that our hospitals and jails were all filled up. Now they see what can happen when you just simply enforce the law. But the point that I made, I literally just made it 15 minutes ago, sitting in front of my Republican colleagues in our meeting. I said, remember that the president had basically secured the border in 2020. It wasn't quite as tight as it is now, but it was pretty tight. And guess what happened? He got blown to hell in a matter of months under Biden and Mayorkas. We, Congress, must codify the president's agenda, the president's, you know, actions that he's taken as president on the border and passed what we passed last Congress. Remember we passed HR2? That strong border security bill? We have not passed that again. We need to pass it, send it to the Senate. We need to force them to act. If we don't codify this stuff, then the next Democrat president will abuse it again.

So it's great to answer your question. Texas is in a lot better spot. But look, we still have a lot of people we still need to remove. ICE is doing a good job, but we've got to go out and find the folks that have been violating our laws, the people that were wrongly paroled and given granted asylum, move them.
