Hour 3 - National Guard to Memphis?

Hour 3 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show delivers a powerful mix of political analysis, cultural commentary, and heartfelt reflection in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s assassination. This hour features an exclusive interview with Senator Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee, who discusses President Trump’s decision to deploy the National Guard to Memphis to combat violent crime and gang activity. Blackburn outlines the success of recent federal operations like Operation Viper and emphasizes the strategic importance of Memphis as a logistics hub vulnerable to organized crime.

The hour also explores the cultural and moral decay exposed by the public celebration of Kirk’s death, particularly among taxpayer-funded employees. Clay and Buck highlight the firing of a University of Tennessee professor who posted vile comments about Kirk’s family, reinforcing their call for accountability and moral standards in public institutions. They argue that celebrating political assassination is a failure of basic humanity and should result in termination from any publicly funded role.

Listeners hear from callers across the country, including parents whose children are starting Turning Point USA chapters in honor of Charlie Kirk’s legacy. The hosts celebrate this grassroots movement as a positive response to tragedy, encouraging young Americans to stand up for free speech, faith, and conservative values.

A standout moment comes from University of Oregon football coach Dan Lanning, who publicly condemned Kirk’s assassination and expressed support for his family. Clay and Buck praise Lanning’s courage in speaking out from a blue state, urging listeners to support cultural figures who take principled stands.

The hour also touches on the role of social media in radicalizing youth, with Senator Blackburn advocating for stronger online safety legislation and parental involvement. The hosts emphasize the importance of reaching young audiences through modern platforms like TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram, continuing Charlie Kirk’s mission to meet people where they are.
