Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show Podcast. Welcome everybody to the Wednesday edition of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show. Thank you for being here with us as always. Clay, of course, taking one for the team playing golf today while I am helming the radio solo. But there is a bit of a drizzle. So he's got that going on. But he's out there having a good time and doing representing the show on the golf course. And I'm sure we'll see some video of his swing later on today. I'm going to insist that he post. You know, people call him the Jack Nicklaus of radio. I don't know. That's just, that's what the folks are saying. So, yes, he's, he's doing great, though. I saw him last night and like I've been telling you, he'll be back full, full scale on Friday here on the program. So it'll be me today and tomorrow, a lot of news to break down for all of you, the auto pen controversy now. And just to be clear, this is still in the early stages. We're finding out how far this goes and what it involves. But it seems like there's a very decent possibility that maybe somebody was wielding the auto pen for Biden without his knowledge because he was not of sound mind, which they have had to admit. This could involve pardons. This could involve signing of executive orders, even of laws. We will take a look at that. President Trump wants to take a look at that. More on the big beautiful Bill. There's a little bit of, do we call it the triple B, the big beautiful bill. There's a little bit of pushback from some conservative and Republican corners on this one, most notably from Elon Musk himself of Doge, who, as I mentioned to you yesterday in the program, is very unhappy with the situation of the big beautiful bill. And Stephen Miller's out There talking about this is what is possible and this is great and there's so many good things in it. And so we'll break down some of that for you. But this is a, an important moment for us because if we're not doing the right things now when it comes to tackling the debt, when are we going to to do the right things? When are we going to make the hard decisions? Procrastination is the enemy of success. You know it, I know it. True of so many things in our lives. True of so many things for the country. So I think that's a discussion we shall return to today. Also got more on the aftermath of that anti Semitic terrorist attack in Boulder, Colorado. More details, more reaction from those in the public sphere. And I'll make some sense of, well, analyze some of what they've been saying and what is going on there. Trying to make sure I don't leave anything off the oh, yes, two Chinese nationals. This will also go into our border discussion. Charged with allegedly smuggling a fungus into the US Called Fusarium graminearum, which is a potential agroterrorism weapon. We'll talk about what this has to do with the border and why border security is, of course, national security. And I've got some other important stories, too. Basically, so many things to talk to you about today. I'm not even sure if we can get to it all. But the good news is I got three hours with you tomorrow as well and the next day after that. So, you know, we're gonna hang out. It's gonna be good. Let's start, though, with, with some of the border situation. Cause as you know, I think this is essential that they continue on this path. And they're running into roadblocks. The Trump administration is running into roadblocks, as expected from Biden and Obama judges on this. There's no surprise, really in any of that. But they keep pushing, which is absolutely essential. But here's something that I don't think we necessarily anticipated, and it is they are turning on ICE agents. They are increasingly pushing this narrative. And you see this because there are videos across the nation of enforcement operations that are underway. And there are a lot of people who think they can put hands on Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers. They can shove them, they can obstruct them. It is, in fact, illegal. The same laws that say that the FBI can arrest a kidnapper are the same kind of federal laws that say Immigration and Customs Enforcement is allowed to bring people in to take people into custody and put them through the process of deportation. It is not, in fact, the case that Democrats can pick and choose which laws they think have the force of law. Those days are over. Those were the Biden days. During the Biden days, it was quite clear that laws were to be in some cases ignored and in other cases pushed and weaponized. January 6th defendants, for example, nonviolent first time offenders treated like members of Al Qaeda. A stain, honestly, a stain on the Justice Department that will take a long time. Even though President Trump did the right thing and pardoned so many of those people, it's still a stain on the Justice Department that it was able to be weaponized in that way. But now we have these enforcement operations and what you see are Democrats, community activists and organizers and as our friend Jesse Kelly says, street communists, a great phrase. I agree with him as a. Well, a. Well, I'm giving Jesse credit for it, so I can now just use it. Ok? But I've gone on record that this was a borrow from Jesse Kelly. The street communist types, you know, the ones that have the radical left ideology and are also willing to dirty themselves up a bit, wrestle with cops to the ground, throw, you know, throw bottles of urine and rocks and things, right? They're doing this to ICE agents. Now, these are federal law enforcement officials. Notice how I mentioned January 6th before. Well, those are federal law enforcement. Rather, that was a federal law enforcement issue because it occurred in the Capitol building and we were told that to put hands on law enforcement was a terrible thing and they must be punished to the fullest extent of the law. Why aren't all these individuals being punished to the fullest extent of the law for physically either assaulting or obstructing ICE agents? Well, as we know, it's because the Democrats think that they get to live in a world where immigration law is not really the law that must end. Now, Tom Homan is entirely serious about this and knows what he is doing and understands what's going on here. But something that has come up specifically, and this comes from Hakeem Jeffries, who, remember, was speaker of the House, a deeply unimpressive politician, I might add, not somebody that when he speaks about any issue, you say, here's somebody with real command of the facts, makes Nancy Pelosi look like Talleyrand by comparison. I mean, really, somebody who I think is just in and over his head. But put that aside for a moment. Hakeem Jeffries, MEMBER of Congress, is upset that these individuals who are serving their country in federal law enforcement as part of immigrations and Customs Enforcement, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, under dhs, that during these raids they have faces covered essentially like a balaclava. It's almost like a gator that they pull up over their faces. Hakeem Jeffries is upset by this. We should talk about this for a moment.
Tom Homan
Play cut to Every single ICE agent who's engaged in this aggressive overreach and are trying to hide their identities from the American people will be unsuccessful in doing that. This is America, So not the Soviet Union. We're not behind the Iron Curtain. This is not the 1930s. And every single one of them, no matter what it takes, no matter how long it takes, will of course, be identified. That, in fact, is the law.
Buck Sexton
They will be identified. Why exactly? So I'd like to know. So, so is he saying that they will be identified by law enforcement after the fact? If they've engaged in some criminal. By the way, they have not engaged in any criminal activity. They are making arrests. But what you see here are the Democrats to placate the rabid street Communists in their midst, the Democrats have decided that they want there to be pressure campaigns against law enforcement officers involved in interior enforcement of immigration laws. They want them to be subject to the rage of the mob so that they can slow down and maybe even stop these raids and stop these processes from happening. What other area of the law would anyone for one second think this is legitimate? If they were going in and they were raiding fentanyl stashes and the cops involved in it were, you know, obscuring their idea because some of them maybe are involved in undercover operations. Some of them are doing by bus. Some of them, you know, they don't necessarily want to be on the six o' clock news. Would they be making this case? No, they would not. But it's very clear what's going on here. They're trying to pretend it's about accountability. This is exactly what Democrats do, I might add, when they want donors to any. Anything conservative to be public. They say it's about transparency, but it's actually about intimidation. And it's also once again here about intimidating our law enforcement officers by having their identities out there so they can be doxed, so they can be threatened, so their families can be the subject of death threats. We all know what's going on here, but these Democrats are vile. Vile. And they seek to undermine this law enforcement effort in whatever way they can. They are anti law on this issue. And here's Tom Homan, as I said before, speaking about how the vilification of ice, the pretense, the games, the lies that are being told about how ICE is really the Stasi of East Germany, ICE is the Nazi and SS ice is, is on the wrong side of history, all this stuff. They're going to get an ICE agent who's a federal law enforcement officer severely injured or killed. It's just a question of when. This is cut three.
Hakeem Jeffries
A lot of our congressional representatives who are vilifying ICE on the board to every day they're driving this hate. And I'm telling you, it's only a matter of time before there's an incident where an ICE agent is going to have to take a life or an ICE agent is going to lose a life. President Trump saving lives. The men and women of ICE are saving lives every day. And if you look at the numbers, the numbers don't lie. Majority of people ICE is arresting, are arresting are criminal illegal aliens, public safety threats. And the non criminals, most of them are scooped up in sanctuary cities. And you're right, the world's upside down when the guy that carries them badging guns, the bad guy and the ones who break the law are the victims.
Buck Sexton
Notice how quickly the Democrats went back to being the party of the criminal. For a moment there. Anybody who was present at the Capitol on January 6, any law enforcement official anywhere in the, in the general vicinity was, was a hero, you know, worthy of a medal of honor. I mean, the greatest heroes that have ever stood for our nation, yadda, yadda, yadda. That was what they were saying. All of a sudden they liked law enforcement. All of a sudden they thought the FBI was a fantastic agency because they used it as a tool to crush their political enemies, to make an example of them. Now, no one disagrees that these are federal law enforcement agents and that they are enforcing real good, valid laws on the books. Democrats just don't like it. And they have convinced themselves as a party that the law is really what they want. The law is not a thing that is objective, that is freestanding. That we all are subject to the law is their whim, the whim of power. And they don't have power right now. Therefore, there is no law that they don't like. And they're willing to put ICE agents and other law enforcement at risk because they want to placate the angry mob that's looking to do some kind of cosplay over how they're the great heroes of this new civil rights struggle of every illegal gets to stay here forever. Not on Trump's watch. Look, Father's day means so much more to me these days because I'm a new dad and being able to celebrate and thank my own dad for all he is to me is also really special. So I've got a great A great gift idea for all the dads and father figures out there comes from Kardia Mobile, specifically the Kardia Mobile 6L. It's the world's first FDA cleared personal EKG.

The side of the angry mobs that want to stop enforcement of our immigration laws that stand in the way of, in many cases, literally in the way of our law enforcement officers who are trying to take Remember, these are the public safety threats within the illegal alien pool. These are the murderers, the rapists, the gangbaggers the, the robbers, the, the, the bad guys. Right. I don't want to hear about. Oh, but what about, you know, my, the gardener down the street for me is so kind and works so hard. That's not who they're going after right now. They're going after these public safety threats. And the Democrats are playing along with this nonsense of we need to have on video shown to the whole country the identities, the faces of these law enforcement agents. And here's what the acting ICE director, Todd Lyons had to say about this yesterday. Play 20 I'm going to answer the backlashing.
Todd Lyons
So a lot of agencies were invited to come out two weeks ago in Los Angeles where we ran an operation where ICE officers were doxed. So let's just say that again, people are out there taking photos of the names, their faces and posting them online with death threats to their family and themselves. So I'm sorry if people are offended by them wearing masks, but I'm not going to let my officers and agents go out there and put their lives on the line and their family on the line because people don't like what immigration enforcement is. They are wearing those masks because we ran an operation with the Secret Service. We arrested someone that was going online taking their photos, posting their families, their kids Instagram, their kids Facebooks and targeting them. So let me ask, is that the issue here, that we're just upset about the masks or is anyone upset with the fact that ICE officers families were labeled terrorists?
Buck Sexton
I want someone to ask Congressman Jeffrey's about this. I want him to have to answer on television. Remember how we know that all the journos are liars and fakes except for the ones that are right of center who somehow managed to get all the big stories correct? Isn't that interesting? But you know, I want to know why these Capitol Hill reporters, why don't they ask Congressman Jeffries, hey, what do you think about the death threats against ICE family members because they were doing lawful federal law enforcement work. What do you think about that, Congressman? Oh, I thought law enforcement were heroes. I thought we were supposed to treat them well, as, you know. No, not law enforcement in general. Only cops who were only, only, you know, Capitol hill Police on January 6. The only law enforcement. Oh, and Comey and other Comey stooges at the FBI for trying to destroy Trump and trying to destroy Trump. That's the only law enforcement that they like. The only law enforcement they like are the ones who take out their political enemies. Very clear what's going on here. They are playing with fire. These leftists are doing reckless things by feeding into this public perception that our Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers are somehow the bad guys and the Democrats are on the team of, you know, Ms. 13 murderers. That's who the Democrats are worried about. Leclay and I really like spending time with the team behind Rapid Radios. Rapid Radios are the next level modern day walkie talkies that you need to have.

As you know, the Democrats of the party have open borders and of allowing American sovereignty to evaporate entirely so that we are a a giant soup kitchen for the world. We are the world's welfare, Welfare bureau. And do you speak English? Do you care about America? Do you share our values? You bring anything to the table for the Americans already here, none of that matters really to Democrats. There's the emotional pull of I get to tell everybody, I just want everyone to come here because that's how much I think this place is so great. But they don't want them in their neighborhood and they don't want them in their schools and they don't want them to commit crimes that affect them. They just want the working class and people of limited income to have to deal with all these new arrivals and their welfare needs and all the English as a second language instructors in their public schools and their super crowded overcrowded ers where you can't get actual emergency care because they're giving frontline medical care. The people who just arrived five minutes ago and and pretended that they were fleeing oppression in whatever country they're from. Some people have had enough of this. Some of us see this for what it is and the game is up. Or at least we're hoping the game is up. But let me give you an example as we're talking about this issue of immigrations and Customs Enforcement officers faces being covered when they're doing these raids, these operations. And, uh, let's take a look at the kinds of things that are going on here. It was just a few days ago, 48 hours ago, actually. Oh, no, I'm sorry. Last week, Last week in San Diego, ICE did some raids at a couple of restaurants. And you had, notice the way they write this, heavily armed ICE agents. Like, yeah, they're armed. They have weapons. Like all cops have weapons. Right? Heavily armed ICE agents. And they're, they were talking about how people gathered, started videotaping and started, you know, chanting shame and getting in the way of this immigration enforcement raid. One of these restaurants, by the way, I won't name it here, but the restaurant says last night one of our restaurants was the site of an ice cream worksite enforcement operation. The way it unfolded was nothing short of traumatic. We are devastated and heartbroken at this moment. Our priority is not public perception. Our priority is our people. We are working closely with our attorneys to locate and support our detained employees, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. Don't hire illegals might actually be the proper response to this. No. Notice that these, this restaurant that has. Is using illegal labor, according to ice. I mean, maybe these, maybe they made a mistake. I doubt it. But assuming that, that ICE is right. And also, keep in mind, it's not just the fact they're illegal. If ICE is going after them, there's a, there's a higher priority on these, on these enforcement cases. Just because you're washing dishes somewhere doesn't mean that you're not involved with a gang or have not been involved with felony gang activity. Right, so the media is just going to lie to you about this? I mean, the, the, the Democrat media in California in particular, they have turned California upside down and made it. The whole thing is a sanctuary state. Illegals everywhere, you know, they have changed the. You'll, you'll never get California's political machinery to want to set things right as it stands now because there are too many illegals and family members of illegals and the illegal lobby is now too powerful in that state to set things right. It's a shame. Didn't take that long, 20, 30 years. Completely upend the reality of the, of the state of California. But I think it's, it's interesting to see how this restaurant, this restaurant that put out this statement acts like they're the aggrieved party and they're the heroes here. We're talking to our lawyers about this. Did you hire a bunch of illegals? Do you know if those illegals have done other bad things? You're not, you're not, you're not martyrs. You're not heroes. You're just people that are undercutting the wages of actual Americans by hiring illegals, which is a violation of law if it shouldn't be illegal. Democrats in Congress should say, we think that everybody, let's, let's amend the law so that you can hire illegals and let's see how that goes over with the American people. Let's see how that goes over with people who are paying taxes and working for a living and trying to pay their bills and trying to meet their obligations and doing so within the law. And I mean all Americans, white, black, Latino, Asian, everybody. Let's see how that goes over when Democrats are willing to finally say what they want to do, say what they mean when, which is to legalize all the illegals all across the country. Mass amnesty. Just make the, just be honest about it. Democrats, just tell us that's what you want to do because then the system can process it. No, what they do is they, they notice that they never say we need to change all these laws. They don't. That's not the argument they make. They want it. They want an event, an amnesty, but they won't explain right now why it should be legal for people to be hired when they're in the country illegally. But this, this crowd that gathered in San Diego was, quote, unruly. And they used a less lethal noise, flash diversionary device, a flashbang, basically, to get the crowd to, to move out of the way. Five federal agents, most of them armed with assault rifles. Oh, my gosh, I wonder if they had chainsaw bayonets on those scary assault rifles, because that's when you know they really mean business. Remember the chainsaw bayonets? On USA Today, San Diego city officials denounced the operation and question the use of rifles. They didn't use the rifles. They had rifles. They didn't open fire. Federal actions like these are billed as a public safety measure, but it had the opposite effect. According to San Diego Mayor Todd Gloria, what we saw undermines trust and creates fear in our community. Well, if you're illegal, maybe you should have a little bit of anxiety about that. No other country in the. Would we lecture any other country in the world about enforcing their immigration laws. I mean, realistically. Right. Is there any Part of us that would say, you know what? When they try to. When people in Japan are overstaying their visas and the Japanese government's like, you gotta go. We, we need sanctions against Japan. They're not allowed to enforce their laws. Of course not. That's insane. But we're not, we're not allowed to enforce our own laws. The Trump administration is not allowed to take the necessary steps here. If these are bad laws, why are they on the books? If these are bad laws, why doesn't Congress try to change them? Why doesn't Congress come clean with the American people and the Democrats in it at least, and say, yeah, we want to reward all those who came in illegally. We don't want to kick out those who are illegal and who are dangerous criminals. We think that that somehow adds to the beautiful tapestry of America, make the case. Now, what they do is try to have it both ways, and it is a disgrace. Here's speaking of disgrace, Representative Dan Goldman. Little trust, Little trustafarian, little trust fund, Trust fund boy, Dan Goldman. You know, another one of these guys desperate to inflict his will on other people. Never accomplished anything other than spending mommy and daddy's money to make himself look big and tall. Here he is saying that the ICE agents who are doing this because they are protecting their identities, they must be doing illegitimate things. Play cut 21.
Dan Goldman
I asked them, I said to them, what are you. What is the point here? Do what are. Are you just trying to tally more arrests? I didn't get any real response. And then I said to them, why are you wearing masks? I was a federal prosecutor for 10 years. I worked with ICE agents. I worked with law enforcement agents. I never saw any of them wear masks. This is brand new. And the question is, if everything is legitimate and proper, why are you wearing masks? To hide your face.
Buck Sexton
Yeah. I don't know why. Why, when there's undercover agents trying to do a drug deal to ensnare a high level. Why do they lie about who they are? Or why do they have an assumed name? Or why law enforcement engages in deception all the time? Law enforcement engages in deception. Sometimes that I think is. Is pretty gross. I mean, you think about what happened to Daniel Penny on the subway and that NYPD cops like, yeah, I was a Marine. Death before, you know. No, he wasn't. He was just trying to create rapport to get Penny to incriminate himself. Penny was innocent, thankfully. But this idea that you have to have the faces of everybody involved in a law enforcement operation, well, you know, it's Actually scarier than what we want to admit here. Not what the law enforcement's doing, but the environment that this is occurring in. You know where you've been seeing this for a long time? Mexico. You know why? Because the cartels are so powerful that if they see the faces of people involved in anti cartel operations, they and their families are subject to kidnapping, torture and murder. And it happens. So that's why whenever you see a big bust in Mexico, the federales have masks on for their own safety. What Dan Goldman should be asking, oh, I was a prosecutor. Yeah, a lot of prosecutors are schmucks. What Dan Goldman should be asking is why is the environment in this country so dangerous for our law enforcement now when it comes to immigration to that for their own safety they need to obscure their identities during raids. And you know what the answer would be? Because of Democrats doing the rabble rousing mob feeding madness that they are engaged in just as a means of opposing immigration law and trying to slow down the Trump agenda. The reason, the answer to his question, it's not, oh, they're not doing something legitimate really bring in what way is this illegitimate? Tell us what, we're not allowed to enforce immigration laws. Now notice they won't speak to that. They won't say that they don't want you to enforce these laws. They want to stop the Trump administration from enforcing them. But they'll lie about it. They'll pretend just like they used to lie about, oh, we want border security too. No they don't. Always a lie, always a lie. They did not want border security. Now though, the answer to the question is Congressman Goldman, the answer to the question, why do we have members of the law enforcement community assigned immigration enforcement? Why are they obscuring their identities? Because of psycho Democrats don't believe in the law. That's the answer. It's very clear, it's very straightforward answer. And because the people who are putting together these operations don't want to jeopardize the safety of their agents or the safety of their agents families, if any of them have done something in the course of this operation that is excessive force or is somehow actually against department policy or against the rights of any of these individuals who have been arrested, bring that case in court. There are ways to handle this, but that's not even what's being alleged. It's just, no, we need to see their faces. They want to intimidate law enforcement. What these Democrats are doing, and I mean members of Congress, I don't just mean this street rabble These members of Congress, what they're doing is disgusting. It is a betrayal of the law enforcement community. It is cowardice. It is calculating. People like Goldman should be ashamed. But he's not. He's not. He just, you know, say whatever, do whatever as these people are appalling. You know, he was leading one of the guys leading the Trump impeachment thing or lead. It's nonsense. Nonsense. Take some of your calls on this and also transition into some of the auto pen controversy stuff. Oh, also wanted to tell you we finally were able to get some time coming up later with the secretary of Transportation. Duffy, a lot of you going to be traveling this summer. Let's talk about what's going on with air traffic control. Especially if you're trying to leave from Newark lately. You're probably like what the heck is going on? Well, we will discuss, we'll talk about it. Moms and dads, you have the same sensation that I do. We protect our children at any cost, especially when they're under our own roofs. We know it is on us to do that. Right? You want products from Sabre, the number one pepper spray brand trusted by law enforcement. Saber Spelled S A B R E.
