Hour 2 - Congressman Jim Jordan

In hour 2 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton show, the hosts cover several significant topics, starting with an interview with Ohio Congressman Jim Jordan. The discussion with Congressman Jordan focuses on President Trump's new tariffs, FBI reforms, and the issue of transgender athletes in sports. Jordan defends the tariffs, emphasizing their necessity to protect American jobs and industries from unfair foreign competition. He highlights the president's negotiation skills and the potential long-term benefits for the U.S. economy. Jordan also discusses internal FBI chat logs revealing a gag order on the New York Post story about Hunter Biden's laptop, criticizing the FBI's handling of the situation and praising the new leadership under Director Patel for his efforts to restore integrity and focus on traditional crime-fighting activities. Additionally, Jordan supports President Trump's decision to freeze funding to Maine for allowing trans athletes to compete against girls, framing it as a promise kept and commending individuals like Riley Gaines who have taken a stand against this policy.

Buck then discusses the broader implications of the new tariffs, including their impact on national security. He highlights the importance of having a strong domestic industrial base to ensure national security, especially in times of global conflict. Buck provides historical context for the current economic policies, comparing them to past trade policies and their outcomes, arguing that Trump's approach is necessary to correct long-standing imbalances and protect American interests.
