Episode: Buck Brief - Is America's Immigration Policy Anti-White?
Release Date: May 14, 2025

Introduction

In this episode of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show, host Buck Sexton delves into a pressing and controversial topic: the perceived anti-white bias in America's immigration policies. Joined by guest Jeremy Carl, author of The Unprotected Class: How Anti-White Racism is Tearing America Apart, the discussion navigates through media portrayal, institutional biases, and governmental actions affecting immigration and racial justice in the United States.

Media Bias in Immigration Reporting

Timestamp [01:20] – [04:59]

Buck Sexton opens the conversation by highlighting the skewed media narrative surrounding South African refugees. He points out that while the media often portrays these refugees as legitimate individuals fleeing political persecution, there is a disproportionate focus on questioning the legitimacy of white South African refugees.

• Buck Sexton states, “They’re really parsing very closely just exactly every single detail of these folks” ([02:08]).

Jeremy Carl agrees, noting, “If there were just black South Africans who showed up... they deserve their day in court... but because it's white South Africans... they have all these questions” ([04:14]).

This selective scrutiny, according to Buck, reveals an underlying bias within media outlets and institutions like the Episcopal Church, which recently withdrew from refugee resettlement programs citing unsubstantiated claims about the refugees' legitimacy ([03:45]).

Institutional Withdrawal and Anti-White Racism

Timestamp [05:46] – [07:36]

The discussion shifts to institutional responses, particularly the Episcopal Church's decision to cease involvement in refugee resettlement. Buck critiques this move as indicative of "far woke" denominations exhibiting anti-white sentiments.

• Buck Sexton observes, “These are far woke churches denominationally... the anti white racism” ([05:46]).

Jeremy underscores the irony of such institutions abandoning longstanding humanitarian efforts, especially when the refugees in question—mainly Afrikaners facing threats like farm murders and land expropriation—clearly meet the criteria for genuine asylum seekers ([06:14]).

Government Policies and Racial Justice

Timestamp [08:56] – [13:47]

The conversation transitions to the Trump administration's efforts in addressing racial justice. Buck commends the administration for dismantling affirmative action at the federal level and issuing executive orders to eliminate Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives.

• Buck Sexton praises, “Getting rid of affirmative action... rooting out DEI and other racist policies from throughout the federal government” ([08:56]).

Jeremy adds that these moves are part of a broader strategy to eliminate what they term the "racial caste system," which has historically benefited certain groups based on race ([16:32]).

Supreme Court Rulings and University Policies

Timestamp [11:25] – [20:41]

Buck and Jeremy discuss the Supreme Court's decision against affirmative action in elite universities, arguing that institutions are ignoring the ruling by making superficial changes rather than addressing underlying discriminatory practices.

• Buck Sexton remarks, “Universities are just ignoring the Supreme Court and they're going to dare this Trump administration to do anything about it” ([11:25]).

They further explore the concept of "disparate impact," where race-neutral laws inadvertently disadvantage specific racial groups. Buck explains how policies like credit scoring perpetuate racial wealth disparities, emphasizing the need to repeal such measures at the legislative level to prevent systemic discrimination.

• Buck Sexton states, “Disparate impact policy makes everything presumptively illegal” ([20:41]).

Future Directions and Legislative Actions

Timestamp [18:18] – [21:37]

Looking ahead, Buck outlines the necessary steps the Trump administration should take to solidify racial justice reforms. He emphasizes the importance of codifying executive orders into law, reforming census categorization to avoid unnecessary racial divisions, and continuing to secure the border against discriminatory immigration practices.

• Buck Sexton suggests, “They need to take away a lot of money... change some of their personnel” ([12:50]).

Jeremy highlights the administration's understanding of long-term strategies to dismantle entrenched systems of racial entitlement, which historically hindered Republican outreach to minority communities.

Conclusion

In closing, Buck and Jeremy reiterate the importance of continuing efforts to eradicate anti-white racism and ensure equitable treatment across all racial groups in America. They advocate for persistent legislative action and strategic policy implementation to achieve lasting racial justice.

• Buck Sexton concludes, “This is going to be trench warfare for a while because this is, this type of racial caste system is the way that the left keeps its power and they're not going to surrender it without a fight” ([16:32]).
