Daily Review with Clay and Buck - Aug 13 2025

Clean Up on Aisle Crime

President Trump's press conference on his efforts to clean up crime in Washington, DC. He addressed criticism he received from former Jeb Bush comms director Tim Miller on MSNBC for his comments about wanting to reduce murder rates in American cities. The hosts noted Trump's ability to dominate news cycles with his DC crime initiatives while preparing for the country's upcoming 250th anniversary celebrations. They highlighted how Trump continues to take questions from the press regularly, contrasting this with the lack of "25th Amendment" discussions that surrounded his first term. Clay previews his upcoming September 16th debate with Stephen A. Smith, promising a fiery discussion on sports, politics, and culture.

Lib White Women Are Nuts

The Democratic Party’s identity crisis, questioning its reliance on radical left policies and cultural mandates.  The hosts explore why they can’t find a single Democrat policy they agree with, while analyzing Kamala Harris’s surprising appeal to white women voters in 2024 despite losing ground with nearly every other demographic.

Listeners weigh in with talkbacks, including a humorous defense of beards and a pointed comment on crime in D.C. The show then unpacks a viral rant from Bravo star Jennifer Welch, who suggested Trump supporters should be banned from multicultural restaurants—a moment Clay and Buck use to examine the anger and cultural disconnect among liberal white women. This sparks a broader critique of feminism, pop culture influences like Sex and the City, and how decades of messaging have shaped societal values. The topic inspires a candid discussion on the future of the Democratic Party, the growing shift of young men toward conservatism, and why cultural narratives matter in politics.

TX Sen. John Cornyn

President Trump’s cultural influence in Washington, D.C., including his recent Kennedy Center honors announcement and efforts to restore law and order in the nation’s capital. Texas Senator John Cornyn joins the show to address crime in D.C., juvenile justice reform, and his support for Jeanine Pirro as the new U.S. Attorney. Cornyn also weighs in on the Texas Democrats’ walkout over redistricting, calling it a potential federal issue, and outlines GOP plans to break the blockade on Trump’s judicial nominees—including possible Senate rule changes using the “nuclear option.”
The conversation then shifts to Cornyn’s competitive Texas primary, his 99.2% pro-Trump voting record, and concerns about Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s electability. Cornyn shares insights on Democratic challengers like Beto O’Rourke and Colin Allred, predicting high-stakes Senate battles in Texas, Kentucky, and Georgia.
