Buck Sexton
How do you think learning an instrument helps kids with confidence?
Music Educator
Learning an instrument allows them to discover a little bit further of who they are and be comfortable with it and then share a little bit about that with others. And if it's done in an environment that is celebrating and championing them then that confidence can only go up.

Two apparent terrorist attacks in one day, and we know that are coming from people of a jihadist mindset based on all of the factors so far. Let's start with this Old Dominion University shooter. So two people were shot by this guy and the shooter was killed by police. And here is the latest on this and I can tell you it took a while for it to come out what this guy's background was, which is always a pretty major indicator that the individual is someone the media doesn't want to talk about. They don't want to talk about the background of the shooter, in this case the terrorist. They don't want to talk about why he did what he did. And if it were somebody who were white, male, MAGA supporter, anything like that, you would hear about it instantaneously. But there's always this delay process. There's always this we have to wait and see why it is, or wait and see how all the facts come together, even if it's apparent in the very earliest moments of the attack. Say, well, hold on a second, you already know who the guy is, why don't you? Nope, they want to hold it back. This is the latest on it that the Fox News reporting. The shooter is Mohammed Jalo, who is a naturalized US citizen from Sierra Leone who was convicted in 2017 of providing support to ISIS. He was released in December 2024. Here's what the DOJ said after his arrest in 2016. Jello praised the gunman who killed five US military members in a terrorist attack in Chattanooga, Tennessee in July 2015 and stated that he had been thinking about conducting an attack similar to the November 2009 attack in Fort Hood. Why do we have a naturalized US citizen who keeps his naturalization status when it's clear that he is supportive of enemy combatants against us and is a fifth column inside this country? You know, at some point it's all too clear that our immigration policy is essentially a national death wish. And I have to wonder, how much more of this do we have to see before there's a recognition that we cannot continue this way. We can't continue to bring people in from poor third World Countries that have a preponderance of people who have jihadist leanings, people that come from countries. There's a lot of terrorism. And in this case, somebody you might say, well, Sierra Leone is West Africa, okay, but the guy was convicted of terrorism and he stays. And we have to change our laws where if you're a naturalized, if you become naturalized right now, the only way you can lose your naturalization is if you committed fraud in that naturalization process. As I understand it, that's basically the only way. No, if someone has become American, quote, unquote. Also, let's think about this. Is this guy American? These are real questions to ask. He's from Sierra Leone, he hates America, he hates the west, he wants to kill American soldiers. He supports isis. He goes to prison for supporting isis, for material support to isis, probably try to send them money or something. And you sit here and you say, how much of this do we have to go through before we realize this guy's not American? I don't care what piece of paper he puts in front of me, he's not an American. All right? And this whole, oh, we're like a nation of immigrants and all this stuff, no, you actually have to be loyal to this place, this country known as the United States of America, to be American and to come here from somewhere else and to work against us and to want to support those who would kill us and who would destroy our society. If that can't eliminate or remove your American ness, your so called legal Americanness, what can? So there's no surprise here. The guy's name is Muhammad. I said that on radio. I'm like, what are the chances this guy's got Muhammad in his name? Sure enough, it's a Muslim shot. People angry about what's going on in the Middle east. And so he just kills random people. Also, you can tell that these are individuals who are, yes, they're evil, but they're also quite stupid. Because none of this stuff that's going on right now with these lone wolf terrorists, with the sleeper cells that people are concerned about that Iran might have activated here, they're not going to change anything that we do. They're not going to change our resolve. They're not going to stop the air campaign in Iran. In fact, if anything, if we tie something back to Iran, it'll intensify the strikes. And because we won't want to. At least this administration, if you had a Democrat in charge, it might be different. They won't want to show any weakened resolve in the face of some kind of terror attack. So you sit here and you see how this is going and it's happening exactly as we would think, that there are people who live among us who are Muslims and this is where we have to do the. Not all Muslims. Yeah, of course not all Muslims. But so many of the people that are going to engage in terrorism from here for the foreseeable future because of what's going on in the Middle east right now are Muslim, that it would be dereliction of duty for us not to pay attention to that. We know where the threat is coming from. The same thing where, I mean, look, how many of you cross the street for any reason? How many of the men listening or watching this cross the street? If there is a woman who is on the street who looks like she's, you know, unstable or, you know, could be, you know, could be a thug or could be menacing or something, probably none of you. How many of you cross the street if there's a man who you think, well, this guy could be a problem, looks menacing, looks like might be a criminal or probably a lot of you. We're making all these distinctions about threat level all the time in our lives. Men are a bigger physical threat to you than women are. That doesn't mean that a woman can't kill you. It doesn't mean there aren't women who do armed robberies. It just means you have to live your life. We all live our lives based on probability and percentages, ok? Because you want the best outcome for yourself. And probability exists for a reason. And this idea that we're going to ignore this and go, oh, well, you know, sure, maybe it's the Muslim community, maybe it's the Hindu community that's going to be committing all the terror attacks. No, it will not be. And we all know it when we think about, like the Sikh community. And this is why also I hate when they try to say it's a racial thing. It's not a racial thing. The Sikh community in America is close to a million people. And I don't think there's ever been a Sikh terrorist attack in America. I'm not familiar with one. You know, maybe there's some guy who happened to be a Sikh who killed somebody for, you know. But as far as I know, there's never been a Sikh terrorist attack. There are about as many Hindus who are non white, about as many Hindus as Muslims in America, and I'm sorry, about as many Buddhists. About as many Buddhists as Muslims in America who are non white. There aren't as many Hindus but about as many Buddhists as Muslims. And there have been no Buddhist attacks, terrorist attacks on US soil ever. It's not about skin color, it's not about ethnicity. When they tell you that, they're lying. And I always, always want you to deploy this. Notice how no one who comes from all these other non white communities is worried about, you know, that they're going to be targeted or there's racism, whatever. I mean, if they are, maybe they want to, you know, be friends with the wokesters or something. But realistically, there's no Buddha phobia, right? No one has like this fear. But there is Islamophobia. They say now it's not a phobia, it's just rational, which is the terrorist activity we're going to see in this country is going to come predominantly from the Muslim community. We all know this notice. They'll talk about white nationalist terrorism, which is like a figment of their imagination for the most part. But they'll talk about that on the Democrat side of the blue in the face and they'll make sure that we all know that that's the biggest threat and everything else. But the moment you talk about another community, another group that has a problem within that group, they want to shut you down, they want to shout you down. And it's just not going to fly. It's not going to work. Talk about the other terror attack targeting a synagogue full of Jews. Thankfully none of the Jews were hurt, but as far as I know, they haven't even released who the guy is who did it. But guess what, he's a Muslim. I mean, I think we all can guess, right? We all can assume this is doing it because of what's going on in the Middle east, obviously. So this is where we'll get to that in a second. But my friend Birch Gold Group is our sponsor here. And forward thinking Americans have been diversifying a portion of their savings into precious metals like gold for a long time. Gold's value shot up 65% last year. It's up 700% over the last 20 years. Gold makes sense for you. It can also make sense in an existing IRA or 401k. That's right. You can convert an existing IRA or 401k into an IRA and gold. Just text my name Buck to the number 9898 98. Receive your free info kit on gold. No obligation, just useful information. Text my Name Buck to 98. 98 98. To get started with Birch Gold Group now The other attack that happened, this is in a Michigan temple, Temple Israel Synagogue. And they this, there's smoke coming out of the buildings. All these photos. Sky tried to run what seems to be an ied, basically a vbied, vehicle borne improvised explosive device, what we used to call it in Iraq, trying to run a VBIED into a building and blow up all the Jews inside who are worshiping or who are gathered together for whatever the day was today that they were, whatever the ceremony was. Now fortunately they had armed security there and armed security engaged the target and they neutralize the threat. But if this guy was better at building bombs, perhaps he would have killed scores of people with this. So this is a near miss situation where the good guys essentially got lucky, where the good guys walk away and all the men, women and children who are gathered together are trying to just be Jewish in America. Don't have, you know, they didn't lose anyone, they didn't have any casualties. But the other side of this, I mean, another wacko who's upset over what's going on in the Middle east goes to try and blow up a bunch of Americans who have, I mean, honestly, they just, they, they have nothing to do with what's going on in Iran. They couldn't stop it no matter how much they wanted to. They didn't order it to happen. It's just hate. And that's the thing about these jihadists, these radical Muslims. It's just hate. There's really no rationale behind this. Their hearts are so polluted with just the most ferocious anti Semitism that it doesn't matter what the rational arguments can be, it doesn't matter what could be said about it. They just want to kill Jews. It doesn't matter what I'm saying, the foreign policy arguments or anything else, they just want to kill Jews. What a disgraceful thing. I mean, imagine waking up and thinking that you are one of the good people when you're driving a car into a building full of defense. Well, fortunately there was security there, but the people there otherwise are defenseless. They're just trying to go about their day. You're going to try to blow them up and you think that makes you a good person. What could be more evil? What could be more demonic than this? And you know, are we going to hear sermons or hear of sermons, I should say, from mosques all across the country about how this doesn't represent Islam, how this is a terrible thing, how we shouldn't target the. No, no, you won't. No, I mean the truth Is Islam overall, globally views itself in a perpetual struggle with the Jews and with Christianity. And some of them are more sly about this than others that are high up in the Islamic hierarchy of different nation states and security services and so on. Major mosques in Muslim majority countries around the world. But it's a shockingly high number of people who within the Islamic world approve of efforts to blow up a synagogue full of Jews. It's a disgraceful and shockingly high, high percentage. No matter what number you give, people will argue with it or whatever. But all I can tell you is It's a lot. 20%, 30%, 40%. You know, it's in that neighborhood, perhaps a lot more. Depends on whose polling you want to look at. But I'm talking about globally. If you just. Now, how can you even poll global Islam? Well, I can tell you this. Do you think there are a lot of Muslim countries that are flying their flags at half staff because in solidarity with the synagogue that was just attacked? I don't think so. So we all recognize what's going on here. And the Democrats, of course, don't want to talk about this threat. They want to. They want to lecture us, Jussie Smollett style about the white supremacists who yell, this is MAGA country who don't exist. That's their biggest concern, as always.

Episode: Buck Brief - Get Ready for Waves of Islamic Terror Here at Home
Date: March 13, 2026
Host: Buck Sexton
This episode features Buck Sexton presenting a "Buck Brief" on recent incidents of suspected Islamic terror on American soil. Buck dissects two terrorist attacks occurring on the same day—one a shooting at Old Dominion University, the other an attempted bombing at a Michigan synagogue. He explores the implications for national security, immigration, and American identity, and critiques what he views as media and political reluctance to fully address the threat landscape.
Old Dominion University Shooting (02:58–08:35)
Quote:
Michigan Synagogue Attack (12:00–15:00)
Quote:
Buck argues there is media hesitance to candidly disclose the backgrounds of Muslim attackers, especially when tied to jihadist ideology.
He contends that if the attackers had different political affiliations, such as MAGA or white nationalist, details would be shared instantaneously.
Quote:
Buck defends making probability-based assessments about threats, emphasizing this is not inherently racist or "Islamophobic."
He distinguishes between Islam and other non-white religious groups, noting lack of Buddhist or Sikh terrorism in the U.S.
Quote:
He claims that, realistically, future terror attacks in America will primarily originate from "the Muslim community," due to global political conditions, especially the Middle East conflict.
Buck sharply criticizes what he perceives as an exaggerated media focus on right-wing extremism (e.g., white nationalism), contrasting with reticence about Islamic extremism.
He expresses skepticism about Islamic leaders in the U.S. publicly condemning these attacks.
Suggests that a significant portion of the global Muslim community tacitly or openly supports violent acts against Jewish communities (citing unspecified polling).
Quote:
Democrats and progressives, in his view, are more interested in virtue signaling about fictitious threats than addressing the real risks of jihadism domestically.
Quote:
On American identity:
On probability & terrorism:
On Muslim vs. other religious communities and terrorism in America:
Buck Sexton's brief is a forceful critique of current U.S. immigration policy, media practices, and the broader political response to domestic jihadist terrorism. He underscores the ideological and practical dangers of ignoring these threats, advocates for a more active and probability-based approach to identifying risks, and calls for greater honesty in national discussions about the origins and motives of terror attacks.
