Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, third hour, Clay and bought kicks off. Now,
thanks for being here with us as we speak to
you all across this great land. Prime Minister Benjamin nettan
Yahoo is addressing Congress to speak about the Israel Gaza War, ongoing,
ongoing conflict. There will bring you some of the highlights
(00:22):
of that speech, most noteworthy moments later on in the hour.
Also going to be joined by our friend Tommy Larin
of Fox News, Slash OutKick Fame, and we're going to
ask her some of the tough questions like is it
helpful in politics if you're a woman to be a
pretty woman. We've got a lot of things that we're
going to ask, a lot of things that we're going
(00:42):
to get into with Tommy. Looking forward to that in
just a little bit. One thing, one thing that I think, Clay,
we all have to be prepared for is the dishonesty
that the media will engage in to try and shape
the new narrative through the news cycle in a way
(01:03):
that is favorable to Kamala Harris. Perfect example of this,
our friend Brian Kilmead was on Fox News this morning
and he was speaking about Kamala Harris and he referred
to a college how she was going to speak to
a college sorority. And I believe one of the the
(01:25):
guests or one of the individuals was either guest on
a segment or he just called this out.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Uh No, it was just somebody watching on television. Somebody
watched rabb the clip from Fox and Friends. That's even worse.
So an individual on who was watching at home, who
happens to be the head of the White House Correspondence Association,
which of course puts on the White House Correspondence Dinner.
So some prominence in a Democrat or I should say
(01:52):
just journalism. Democrat journalism circles in Washington, DC claimed that
Brian had said a quote colored sorority. That is not
what he said. He said, college sorority. I've played the
audio back many times. There's no doubt about it. But
I do think you're going to see. Oh and Lawrence Jones,
another friend of ours who was on the couch. Lawrence
(02:13):
is black. He said, you're so damned dishonest. He said, college.
But that's all you have. This was Lawrence on Twitter.
That's all you have.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
The BS that you advocate for only brings death, poverty,
and destruction to our black communities. You are welcome on
the show anytime to debate at me. And you good
for Lawrence, by the way, for calling out the lie
and defending his colleague Brian Kilmeat, who should need no
defense in this matter. He just said a college sorority.
We're all out to say college sorority. And I do
(02:43):
think though it's indicative, get ready for it. The media
is going to turn on now a hyper sensitivity to
racial issues, particularly involving anyone from the black community or
any issue around the black community, in order to try
to sell lidify support for Kamala Harris, both within the
black community and within the Democrat community that is obsessed
(03:06):
with pretending they care so much about the black community.
I think we're just seeing the beginning of this. And
you have another example that you were going to bring
up where this is now they're trying to racialize to
degree they can this race now that obviously Joe Biden
is not the nominee.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
DEI and we should mention Democrats picked Joe Biden because
they didn't want to racialize a debate against Trump. Because
I actually think this blows up in their face because
people are sick of being lectured all the time about DEI.
But listen to this. This was on CNN. This is
(03:44):
a congressman who says using the phrase DEI is basically
like using the inWORD I swear. This is what they
said on CNN. I want you to hear it.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Listen.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
This is an organization, this is a right wing campaign
that's going to be racist, misogynistic against the vice president.
But we're going to stand on the issues. And what
really matters, it's the fact that she is qualified. They
want to call her a DEI president DEI candidate. She
has more experience than Trump and JD. Van's combined times
a million. Right, she worked at the state level, she
(04:19):
was the attorney general, she's vice president of the United States.
She was a senator representing one of the largest states
in the entire country. And so these are just racist
dog whistles. Whenever you hear DEI, I want you to
think about the N word. I want you to think
about racial slurs. That's what they actually mean.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
DEI is now a racial slur. This is what a
member of count saying, Yeah, it's the N word.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
And really what they're trying to do, and even with
the attack on kill Need. This is about the power
of language. You and I were talking about this off
air this happened. I think with our friend Eli Crane,
who used the phrase colored people and people lost their minds.
If he had said people of color, that's appropriate. I'm
(05:03):
looking at the CNN poll that we shared with you
a little bit ago that shows Trump up forty nine
to forty six on Kamala Harris. There is a line
for people of color that Kamala Harris, according to CNN,
is winning sixty three to thirty. Now that would incorporate,
theoretically hispanic anybody who's not white, right, people, they just
think about this. People of color is a phrase everybody
(05:27):
can use. Colored people is a super racist phrase. That
means that you are unable to use that phrase at all.
Take it outside of race. If I said, hey, you
know that's a coat that is yellow, you'd say, okay,
(05:48):
you could just say yellow coat. Like this whole idea
to police the phraseology. Think about how crazy that is.
Color of people, I mean people versus colored people.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
Yeah, you could say, you know that's that's Clay's T
shirt or that is the T shirt of Clay.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
But I mean this is what I think so many
of you feel deep within your soul. And by the way,
it's not just white people. It's that you are one
Facebook phrase, you are one Instagram post, and if it's
not you, it's your grandkid or your kid away from
(06:29):
not being able to be employed. And it's going to
be for something that is non intentional. Look, if you
are intentionally demeaning someone because of a characteristic they have
that they don't have a choice over, I understand why
that would be very attackable, that you should be attacked for.
(06:51):
In other words, but when there is something that is
occurring that is not intended, we've lost the ability to
use intent. Remember but I wrote about this, and I
think my life book not the most recent one, the
one before it. The F word, which we're not allowed
to say on this radio show, right, can't say curse
words on this radio show. But every single one of
you understands the difference between somebody sticking up their middle
(07:16):
finger at you and saying f you and saying, man,
that's efing incredible. One is an adjective that is actually
intended to be positive. The other one is a direct insult.
My point on this is all of us use context
of language all the time, and words have many different
(07:40):
meanings based on the context of which they are used.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
And so this is all interested about power politics. Is
all about power politics. It's it's meant to make people
bend the knee. You say what we say, you can say,
and we'll change what you're allowed to say on a
whim and hold you responsible for our whims. When it
comes to the language that is accepted, I think it's outrageous.
I think it's a terrible thing for the country that
there are words that some people can use freely and
(08:07):
all the time and it's fine. And if someone else
just uses the word to let's say, reference someone's usage
of the word bad person, bad person, destroy, that's completely
intellectually indefensible. Okay, it makes no sense at all. It
is about power, pure and simple, and it's very ingrained
in American society right now, very ingrained in people. We've
(08:28):
talked about this. You know, if you could have a
sixteen year old who is on video like stomping a
smaller kid on the head into a coma, well, you know,
maybe he had a bad day. If you have a
sixteen year old who's rapping and is you know says
the wrong word when they're trying to do the rap
that somebody else had done. Oh, I don't know if
they're going to get into college. That's the country that
(08:49):
we live in now, and it's absurd. It's absurd, but
everybody goes along with Oh, everybody goes along with it.
We have to because I don't get to make the rules.
You don't get to make the rules. These are the rules,
the reality of the country. Now.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Your grandkid can be on video rapping along with the
most popular song in America, your fourteen or fifteen year
old grandkid, and get canceled even crazier buck ten years
later when they've had some measure of success in life.
This happens all the time with young athletes. They go
back in time and they say, oh, yeah, he may
(09:23):
have just won the Most Outstanding Player at the Final Four,
but you know he quoted a rap lyric that was
inappropriate for a white kid to quote ten years ago.
How can we stand for this? I think I just
saw a story today. I mean, you know, we do
so much read in before the show, like Trump's nephew
or something says that you know he had said racial
slurs thirty and you're like, what, like, who, what are
(09:45):
you even talking about?
Speaker 1 (09:46):
Like they've already said he's a trader and he's a
rapist and they've prosecuted him and all this crazy stuff.
Oh well, they think the way to really get Trump
is to find that he said, you know, a naughty
word thirty years ago or something. I mean, it's just
but it just goes to show you it's just about power.
It's about politics. It's about having people then the knee
and do what they're told to do. But just I
(10:07):
think everybody should get ready. The bad faith, hyper sensitivity
on racial matters from the media is about to become
the law of the land, and they're gonna look for
anything they can to make this because why they need
to get ninety percent plus of the black vote for Kamala.
They know that, and they need to make you know,
(10:31):
sort of people without much I don't know, intestinal fortitude
or backbone in the suburbs. Who are you know, white
moderates to say, oh, I don't know, to Trump say
something racist, I can't vote for him. You know, they're
they're hoping that they can create this narrative and use it.
Just it's just about power. It has nothing to do
with the reality, has nothing to do with the truth
(10:54):
of Trump or the Republican positions right now. So and
they're desperate with the Kamala situation, so they'll do whatever
they have to do. But we're it's been one day
and you're already seeing these efforts to say, oh, you know,
never mind, I think Clay get ready. If they can
find a police use of force of any kind, oh yeah,
against a against a black American, a police use of
force that looks.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
Bad, it doesn't even happen. It's got to be a
white guy. It's got to be a white guy.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
If they can get a white cop doing something that
looks bad to a oh you know that, the media
is going to turn that the biggest story in the country.
They're going to do all the same tactics that they
did in twenty twenty, and they're hoping they can make
it all happen now. I mean, you know, I wish
I could say that we could stop it here by
just telling people the truth. But these are are powerful
pathways to rile up the mob on the street, and
(11:42):
that is what they're looking to do right now. Because
people keep asking as commalass policies. Talking about commless policies.
First of all, I mean as a senator, she was
the most left wing senator possible. So yeah, on abortion
all nine months, the border wide open, taxation higher I
want to get I want someone ask Kamala, where'd you
think about reparation? Well, let's push Kamala on the most
far left issues. We're going to do this. But there's also.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
She said on the Viewbuck that she supported potentially seventy
or eighty percent tax rate seventy or eighty percent. I
mean we're not talking about she is again. I think
what you're going to see is as her policies become
more self evident. Biden was smart enough never to say
that he supported defunding the police.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
I said when he was running, I was like, guys,
he's not going to do it. He knows, he knows
he's got to win over more moderates. Kamalas said that
the police need to be defunded. She bailed out the
rioters in Minneapolis who were burning down the city, and
there is I think that needs to be talked about
a lot. I also would just put out there as
a way of thinking about this election, and we often
(12:49):
talk about winning persuadables and winning moderates. Yeah, there's that.
There's also who shows up from our team, who shows
up from their team and let the votes be count right,
Meaning there's the turnout component of this too. And there
are a lot people are saying, oh, but Joe Biden,
did he get eighty million votes? Well, I mean, you know,
there's probably there were some Shenanigan shore. But I lived
(13:11):
in New York City, which is eighty percent voting for
Joe Biden, and it's million, eight point six million people.
So there are a lot of Democrats out there. So
if they just get all the Democrats to show up,
this is pretty tight. And that's what Kamala Harris I
think shows right now in the polls. All you have
to do is get all the Democrats to show up,
and you're within two percentage points.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
Netnyahu's speaking right now to a joint session of Congress
will tell you what he is saying, and it's powerful,
so far amazing. A guy from Israel is far better
at addressing Congress than the actual president of the United States.
But that's a whole another story. In the meantime, tunnel,
the towers Foundation, one organization above all others that makes
(13:52):
it their mission to care for the families of our
first responders and those who defend our freedoms. They've provided
more mortgage free homes for the families of our fallen
first responders. In fact, for more than two decades, they've
been meeting the challenges and providing more assurance to heartbroken
family members in the process. When a mortgage can be
paid off, the surviving family members can focus on their
(14:13):
own healing and adjusting to life without a loved one
who was taken in the line of duty. The Foundation
honors the legacy of those who have made the ultimate
sacrifice or who are severely injured while serving our country
and our communities. Tunnel to Towers is committed to helping
America keep its val to never forget nine to eleven
or the sacrifices of its greatest heroes. Help heroes who
(14:36):
protect the freedoms we all enjoy. Join us in donating
eleven dollars a month to Tunnel to Towers at T
two t dot org. That's t the number two t
dot org, keeping it real, keeping it honest. Clay Travis
and Buck Sexton welcome back in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show,
(14:59):
Benjamin Yahoo addressing joint session of Congress. John Fetterman, to
his credit, who has been right on pretty much everything
Israel Palestine actually willing to put on a suit to
show up for Netnyahu's address. We're going to play you
some of the cuts of that in a moment when
we come back on the Well, we've got Tommy Lairn
(15:21):
at the bottom side of this segment. We'll play some
of those cuts for you before the show is out.
But I wanted to play this because it's turned into
a major point of contention today. Was Kamala Harris or not?
Speaker 1 (15:34):
Or was she not?
Speaker 2 (15:35):
The borders are now? Some of this may just be
an argument of well, technically, what is a borders are?
Here is Biden in the White House putting Kamala Harris
in charge of his administration's response to the border crisis.
The chief, the head, the czar, whatever word you want
to use, it's applicable here. Here is that audio.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
The VP today because she's the most qualified person to
lead our efforts with Mexico and the Northern Triangle and
the countries that help. We're gonna need help in stemming
the movement of so many folks stemming the migration to
our southern border. It's not her full responsibility to job,
(16:24):
but she's leading the effort because I think the best
thing to do is to put someone who when he
or she speaks, they don't have to wonder about is
that where the president is? So she speaks, she speaks
for me. Done that to check with me. She knows
what she's doing, and I hope you can move us along.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
Okay, Buck, If I described anyone that worked for us
in that way, would it be wrong to say that
they were the czar of social media or the czar
of audio or video? If I said they speak for
us and they have this job, that's pretty straightforward. Yes,
I mean, no one suggesting that Kamala was actually like
(17:04):
a Kremlin official and ahead of the Russian Orthodox Church
or something like, Yeah, we use czar informally, right, like's
Nolan's saying that she was really a czar, which I
believe comes from the word caesar, which of course goes
back to ancient Rome. But they're they're just trying to
rewrite the history because right now they're having us Oh wow,
(17:26):
like we have somebody who's like we have a black
woman running for president. She does not have dementia. This
is amazing, and she is younger than a lot younger
than Biden and Trump. But then the reality is going
to kick in soon. Of this is the most left
wing person from the Senate and now obviously a VP.
But when she was in the Senate you could.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
Have possibly picked. And her positions on the border and
energy alone should be disqualifying from national office. But we'll see,
they're gonna lie a lot, and they're gonna cheat.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
We know.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
Israeli Prime Minister Benja Netanyahu is speaking right now, my friends,
to a joint session of Congress. And there's two hundred
and ninety days that have passed in this conflict already,
there are many hostages still in Hama's hands. This is
day in and day out, something that we are thinking about,
and our prayers are with the Israeli people. They are
(18:16):
under attack. So this is a moment where you can
do something. For more than forty years, the International Fellowship
of Christians and Jews has been on the ground in
Israel within hours of the war starting, and every day since,
the IFCJ has been feeding the hungry and protecting the vulnerable.
Clay is going to be out there in Israel in
just over a week. He's going to be meeting with
(18:37):
our friends in Israel to talk about some of the
great work that IFCJ has been doing support Israel through
the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. Go visit SUPPORTIFCJ
dot org. That's support IFCJ dot org. Welcome back in everybody.
We're joined by our friend Tommy Laren of OutKick and
(18:59):
Tommy Laren is fearless and you know it from Fox
News and from being all over the conservative commentary sphere
for many years now. Tommy, great to have you on
the show. Thanks for coming back.
Speaker 5 (19:12):
It's great to talk to you guys. And I'm really
excited that we're going to be talking about Operation Coconut
Tree Brats Kamala Harris because this is literally kept me
up for days on end thinking about this, mulling over
this very topic, so I can't wait to get into it.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
Well, let's start with this. Are you concerned about what
they'll be able to do with Kamala Harris now as
the nominee or are you looking forward to Trump being
able to dismantle this last minute change up for the Democrats.
Speaker 5 (19:43):
No, I'm very concerned, and I wish that I could
just sit here with you and tell you. I'm so
confident that Donald Trump's gonna run away with this, that
he's gonna win New York and he's gonna win New
Jersey and this is going to be some kind of
a landslide. But I don't underestimate Democrats ever. I don't
underestimate their capability to electioneer, which is going to be
a big part of this. But also they're so excited
(20:05):
and energized right now, and they have such a short
window that we actually get to explore everything of Kamala Harris.
And they designed it that way. They didn't want us
to have months and months on end for AFO research
or to really analyze her record. They wanted it to
be a good maybe ninety days of excitement about Kamala
(20:25):
and then just rush us to the finish line in
early voting. So I'm very concerned, and I can't lie
about it.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
All right, So let's dive into this question. You're young,
you've been married a couple of years now, Kamala Harris
gets her start, So I want to start with this question.
You just I think you just turned thirty. Not to
put you on blast hear, but you just got outside
of your twenties. Do you know any girls that were
friends of yours that dated guys who were in their
(20:53):
sixties when they were in their twenties. Is this something
that you think very many girls out there no friends
who have done because that's what Kamala Harris did with
the mayor of San Francisco, So let's start there. Do
you think there's very many girls out there who have
done this?
Speaker 5 (21:11):
I think there's a lot of gen Zers who are
already on that path. And the rise of social media
culture and younger women wanting to date older guys with
money because it lends to their influencer lifestyle and the
things that they can post on social media. I think
there's been a big change in the last five years
even where young women don't necessarily date for looks anymore.
(21:32):
They primarily date for money and access. So, unfortunately, I
think that Kamala Harris's story is relatable not only to
a lot of women, but to gen z and maybe
even some younger millennials out there. I'm a little concerned
that people aren't going to clutch their pearls over it,
that they're going to look at it and they're going
to identify with it, and that is going to be
(21:53):
a vulnerability. Even though it pains me to say it, Clay,
I do think it's a vulnerability.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
Okay, Saw, you totally agree with Tommy. You and you
and Buck are on the side here. My argument, and
I just want to hate because I do think this
is important and I wanted to get your take. My
argument is we heard for eight years Trump allegedly slept
with a porn star, and it got treated as if
it was somehow a major aspect of Trump's character and
(22:20):
whether or not he was fit for the office of president.
Kamala Harris starting her career and getting a job because
she slept with a powerful guy mayor of San Francisco
that's thirty years older than her, to me, is a
story that isn't that well known and it actually does
go if you're going to use the Trump argument to
her character. But you're saying you would lay off of that,
(22:41):
not even worry about that, and focus on other things
if you were given advice.
Speaker 5 (22:47):
I just wonder who you're trying to attract with discussing it,
because I think people that are Republican and Trump supporters,
They're like, all right, let's get it on the table,
let's go kit for tat here. But if you're trying
to bring in suburban women who might be on the
fence because they think Democrats are destroying America and destroying
their schools for their children, if you're trying to attract them,
(23:08):
I fear that the shots at Kamala, even though I
love them, calling her down his rocks or laughing cackle
and Kamala, I think those are funny. But I'm already
going to vote for Donald Trump. I'm thinking about some
of my friends who are in their late thirties early forties,
who are run on the fence right now, and I'm
worried that too many shots at Kamala about insulting her
(23:30):
sex life or even her gender and race. I'm just
worried it's going to turn them off. It makes Trump
supporters excited and energize, but if we're looking to bring
an independence into the souls, I'm not sure how helpful
it is.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
Well, Tommy, I'm sure you remember the movie Old School.
I feel a little bit like James Carville when he's
supposed to debate Frank the tank and he just has
to say that was perfect. I totally agree, Clay, and
I even going back and forth on this all week.
I totally agree with your sense of worthy attacks on
Kamala could actually backfire. I think that. And also it's funny, Clay,
(24:05):
I told him in New York City, a twenty year
age difference. If someone's in their twenties, they're dating somebody
in their forties or fifties' that's just like Friday night
at a nice restaurant, Like that's not even that. No
one even thinks twice about this. It's a little different,
I think in Tennessee than it is in San Francisco,
New York, la, et cetera. But beyond that, Okay, so
let's just assume for a second, we'll put aside the
(24:27):
personal history attacks on Kamala. What do you think is
the most effective line of attack to win over those
crucial last one percent of voters nationally based on the
policy side of things, like where do you think it's
the border? Do you think it's the like where do
you go after Kamala to win those who are winnable.
Speaker 5 (24:46):
Still remind people that she is a California radical. I
think that's the best way to go about it, because
people need to be concerned with that. They need to
look at what her record was before. And I'm not
talking about there trying to highlight that she was this
badass prosecutor, which is a joke. But let's talk about
the fact that she's a California radical. Let's talk about
(25:07):
the fact that she wanted to abolish ice, that she
wants to take your guns away, that she believes in
Medicare for all, that she was also signed on to
the Green New Deal. Remind people of that, and people
won't like it. So I think labeling her what she is,
an out of touch California liberal who's never mingled with
them the working class in her life, remind people of that,
(25:28):
and I think that's the best strategy.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
Tommy, what do you think about the VP choice? We
were talking earlier. There's talk that Shapiro, the governor of Pennsylvania,
is going to be the pick. If you look at
the gambling markets right now, Mark Kelly and Shapiro, Mark Kelly,
the Senator from Arizona right at the top. Does Kamala
Harris's VP pick matter very much in your mind? In
the trajectory of this race.
Speaker 5 (25:51):
Yeah, a million percent, because if she picks somebody that
presents as working class, middle class middle America, I really
worry that or in trouble. And I know I like JD. Vance.
I think he's a great guy. I think he's a
great leader for the Mega movement. But I was concerned
about jd Vance not being able to pull in new people.
And now my concern since it looks like Kamala is
(26:13):
going to be the nominee, I'm even more concerned about
that because if she picks somebody that's you know, similar
to JD Vance at least geographically, I think we're in for,
you know, a real hard time because Kamala represents more woke,
more leftists, and then if she picks a VP that
presents more middle class, then we've got on our side.
We've got Donald Trump and JD Vance who are essentially
(26:35):
going after the exact same boating block and not bringing
anybody new in. I worry that this is going to
be a blind spot. The abortion issue is going to
be a blind spot. So you know, the whole calculation
has changed now that we're dealing with Kamala and not Joe,
which I warned that it would. So that's why this
is also frustrating.
Speaker 4 (26:52):
Clay.
Speaker 5 (26:52):
I know that you were on the same page as
me that they were going to swap Joe out. But
we spend so much time, so much effort, so much
money talking about old Joe, and now we don't have
old Joe anymore.
Speaker 1 (27:03):
Well, this is kind of a bummer. Right now.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
Let me ask you this, Tommy. You just mentioned abortion.
It seems clear that the democracy argument at least is
going to be harder to make now based on how
Kamala Harris herself has ascended to the nomination, Not that
they can't make it, just that it's tougher. Uh, Kamala
is going to go in all in, I think on abortion, Trump,
I believe, I'm curious what you would say has handled
(27:29):
this fairly well by saying it's a states issue. What
do you think that battle is going to look like
going forward? And how should Trump handle that?
Speaker 5 (27:38):
Well, it wouldn't be the first time Republicans have lost
an election, an entire election cycle on the abortion issue.
So I'm concerned, and I'm not so much concerned about
Donald Trump because I think that he's been able to
neutralize that argument really well, especially during the debate against
Joe Biden, making it very clear he doesn't support a
national federal abortion ban. But again, I go back to
jd Vance and I'm a little concerned because they're already
(28:01):
playing the clips of him calling you know, basically women childless,
childless cat ladies.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
That's going to.
Speaker 5 (28:08):
Come back to bite jd Vance and Donald Trump and
then his extreme abortion comments are going to come back
to bite him. So unless he articulates very clearly that
he doesn't support a national abortion ban, the Democrats are
going to be able to run on it. That's all
they have. But unfortunately that will be a winning issue
for them if we don't really get our act together
on this side and make it clear.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
Tommy Laren, everybody, Tommy, where can folks go to a
watch your show?
Speaker 5 (28:34):
OutKick dot com Tommy Laren is felis of course on
YouTube as well all of our social media. You guys
know our you know, our OutKick brand obviously from Clay.
So we're just keeping, you know, keeping the dream alive.
Even though I was kind of a kill joy today,
I got to be honest.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
With the peoples.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
By the way, Buck is killing it with her show
if people haven't seen it, and if you let me
just say this tomm because I think it's important if
people have grandkids or kids that are younger and feel
like they're not being talked to. You're talking to people
in their twenties and thirties on a regular basis that
might otherwise not being get reached by traditional media.
Speaker 5 (29:12):
Yeah, and we're also explaining to the older folks what
Brat Summer is.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
And I don't know that.
Speaker 5 (29:17):
Because you're gonna hear a lot of it. You're gonna
hear a lot of these gen z terms. So I'm
going to do much to break it down.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
What may I ask or can you explain it on radio?
Or is that a no go?
Speaker 5 (29:29):
You guys haven't heard that they're brand and kamala as Brat.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
I know, but I don't know what Brat Summer is.
I've seen the headlines, but I don't know what that means.
Let the young lady tell us what is going on.
Let's tell the old men here what is BRAT Summer?
Speaker 5 (29:42):
So it comes from the Charlie XCX album that's titled
Brat and so that was kind of the way it started.
But Bratt by their estimation is somebody who's kind of messy,
likes to party, sometimes says dumb things, but it's cool
now to be brat, and Turley XCX tweeted out, Kamala
is b at. Kamala HQ Twitter has branded herself with
(30:03):
the same I guess, the same headline, with the same
green with the brat. So they're going full in on
Bratt and they're gonna be able to pick up a
lot of gen z ers who weren't excited about Joe Biden.
This is another blind spot for the Republican Party, so
we got to pay attention. Unfortunately.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
Well, it's just it's good. Clay and I have the
RIZ from what I understand, so that's really important.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
I love my boys. Kamala has Kamala. Tommy has met
my boys. I try to use their language as much
as I can to drive them crazy. So I've been
bragging about my RIZ and using the word cap as
frequently as I can, and they're driven insane pretty much
every day by this.
Speaker 5 (30:41):
Well, Bratt is the new one, So Claire, I hope
you can incorporate that into the lingo because it's going
to be three months of this.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
No classic Go check Out, Go check out Tommy Show.
Tommy great to talk to you. Come back and hang
out with us again soon. Thanks so much.
Speaker 5 (30:54):

Speaker 6 (31:41):
Stay on top of election use with twenty four from
Clay and Buck, a weekly podcast you can find on
the free iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
Welcome Aga in Clay Travis buck Sexton show. Our thanks
to Tommy Larin for swinging by. I want to play
for some of you. Before we finished the show, Benjamin
Netanyahu has been addressing a joint session of Congress as
this show has been going on, and he spoke quite
eloquently about the battle between good and evil. I think
(32:13):
it's fair to say between the Jewish people and the
terrorists who attack them on October seventh, and here are
some of those clips. Let's start with cut twenty nine
explaining exactly what the cost was to Israel on a
proportional basis compared to the US on nine to eleven,
cut twenty nine.
Speaker 7 (32:33):
Like December seventh, nineteen forty one and September eleventh, two
thousand and one, October seventh is a day that will
forever live in infamy. It was the Jewish holiday of Sinkatua.
It began as a perfect day, not a cloud in
the sky. Thousands of young Israelis we're celebrating at an
(32:57):
outdoor music festival, and suddenly at six twenty nine am,
as children were still sleeping soundly in their beds, and
the towns and kid would see him next to Kaza.
Suddenly heaven turned into hell. Three thousand Kamas Duris stormed
(33:17):
into Israel. They put your twelve hundred people from forty
one countries, including thirty nine Americans proportionately compared to our
population size. That's like twenty nine eleven's in one day.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
I mean, that really kind of brings it Homebuck, And
then I wanted to play this he specifically Netanyahu did
shouted out the University of North Carolina fraternity brothers who
held up the United States flag and talked about the
fact that anti Israel protesters are Iran's useful idiots. Here
is cut thirty.
Speaker 7 (33:58):
We recently learned from the National Security Director Director of
US Director of National Intelligence that Iran is funding and
promoting anti Israel protests in America. They wanted to disrupt America,
so these protesters burn American flags even on the Fourth
of July. And I wish to salute the fraternity brothers
(34:20):
at the University of North Carolina who protected the American flag,
protected the American flag against these anti Israel protesters.
Speaker 1 (34:43):
That is powerful.
Speaker 2 (34:44):
And then one more time, Buck, just let me play
this because I think it's important for a lot of
parents and grandparents out there, and for some of you
youngsters who are home right now from college, are getting
ready to go away to college. You are Iran's useful
idiots when you're attacking Israel. Here's cut thirty one.
Speaker 7 (34:58):
Iran is funding the the usual protests that are going
on right now outside this building, not that many, but
they're there and throughout the city. Well, I have a
message for these protesters. When the tyrants of Tehran who
hang gays from cranes and murder women for not covering
their hair are praising, promoting and funding you, you have
(35:21):
officially become Iran's useful idiots.
Speaker 2 (35:25):
So well, said man Buck. I wish we had an
American president who could speak that eloquently right now.
Speaker 1 (35:33):
There's a reason that net Nyahoo is the great defender
of Israel in this moment of tremendous peril and has
been chosen for this role and served in it for
as many years as he has. The guy is very
compelling and has a vision and is a very eloquent
speaker in English as well as in Hebrew. So yeah,
(35:57):
Nen Yahoo's the real deal, and he demand for this moment,
and I think that very interesting to see what the
what the American Jewish community does in this election, given
the clear betrayal by the Biden administration and the you know,
holding back of communitions and things like this, it's just insane.
(36:19):
But remember the the platform for Humanitarian aid, the doc
that they built for like hundreds of millions of dollars,
It just essentially floated away. Yeah, and no one even
pays attention to this. This is the Biden Administration's big move.
It's it's preposterous.
Speaker 2 (36:34):
Next week, as you've mentioned, and I've said a couple
of times, I'm going to be traveling to Israel. Not
next week, but the week after. I'll be doing our
show live from Israel. I will see many of these
terror sites that he is referencing, be able to describe
it for all of you. Will be back Thursday edition
after Biden's big address in the Oval tonight
All right, third hour, Clay and bought kicks off. Now,
thanks for being here with us as we speak to
you all across this great land. Prime Minister Benjamin nettan
Yahoo is addressing Congress to speak about the Israel Gaza War, ongoing,
ongoing conflict. There will bring you some of the highlights
(00:22):
of that speech, most noteworthy moments later on in the hour.
Also going to be joined by our friend Tommy Larin
of Fox News, Slash OutKick Fame, and we're going to
ask her some of the tough questions like is it
helpful in politics if you're a woman to be a
pretty woman. We've got a lot of things that we're
going to ask, a lot of things that we're going
(00:42):
to get into with Tommy. Looking forward to that in
just a little bit. One thing, one thing that I think, Clay,
we all have to be prepared for is the dishonesty
that the media will engage in to try and shape
the new narrative through the news cycle in a way
(01:03):
that is favorable to Kamala Harris. Perfect example of this,
our friend Brian Kilmead was on Fox News this morning
and he was speaking about Kamala Harris and he referred
to a college how she was going to speak to
a college sorority. And I believe one of the the
(01:25):
guests or one of the individuals was either guest on
a segment or he just called this out.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Uh No, it was just somebody watching on television. Somebody
watched rabb the clip from Fox and Friends. That's even worse.
So an individual on who was watching at home, who
happens to be the head of the White House Correspondence Association,
which of course puts on the White House Correspondence Dinner.
So some prominence in a Democrat or I should say
(01:52):
just journalism. Democrat journalism circles in Washington, DC claimed that
Brian had said a quote colored sorority. That is not
what he said. He said, college sorority. I've played the
audio back many times. There's no doubt about it. But
I do think you're going to see. Oh and Lawrence Jones,
another friend of ours who was on the couch. Lawrence
(02:13):
is black. He said, you're so damned dishonest. He said, college.
But that's all you have. This was Lawrence on Twitter.
That's all you have.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
The BS that you advocate for only brings death, poverty,
and destruction to our black communities. You are welcome on
the show anytime to debate at me. And you good
for Lawrence, by the way, for calling out the lie
and defending his colleague Brian Kilmeat, who should need no
defense in this matter. He just said a college sorority.
We're all out to say college sorority. And I do
(02:43):
think though it's indicative, get ready for it. The media
is going to turn on now a hyper sensitivity to
racial issues, particularly involving anyone from the black community or
any issue around the black community, in order to try
to sell lidify support for Kamala Harris, both within the
black community and within the Democrat community that is obsessed
(03:06):
with pretending they care so much about the black community.
I think we're just seeing the beginning of this. And
you have another example that you were going to bring
up where this is now they're trying to racialize to
degree they can this race now that obviously Joe Biden
is not the nominee.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
DEI and we should mention Democrats picked Joe Biden because
they didn't want to racialize a debate against Trump. Because
I actually think this blows up in their face because
people are sick of being lectured all the time about DEI.
But listen to this. This was on CNN. This is
(03:44):
a congressman who says using the phrase DEI is basically
like using the inWORD I swear. This is what they
said on CNN. I want you to hear it.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Listen.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
This is an organization, this is a right wing campaign
that's going to be racist, misogynistic against the vice president.
But we're going to stand on the issues. And what
really matters, it's the fact that she is qualified. They
want to call her a DEI president DEI candidate. She
has more experience than Trump and JD. Van's combined times
a million. Right, she worked at the state level, she
(04:19):
was the attorney general, she's vice president of the United States.
She was a senator representing one of the largest states
in the entire country. And so these are just racist
dog whistles. Whenever you hear DEI, I want you to
think about the N word. I want you to think
about racial slurs. That's what they actually mean.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
DEI is now a racial slur. This is what a
member of count saying, Yeah, it's the N word.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
And really what they're trying to do, and even with
the attack on kill Need. This is about the power
of language. You and I were talking about this off
air this happened. I think with our friend Eli Crane,
who used the phrase colored people and people lost their minds.
If he had said people of color, that's appropriate. I'm
(05:03):
looking at the CNN poll that we shared with you
a little bit ago that shows Trump up forty nine
to forty six on Kamala Harris. There is a line
for people of color that Kamala Harris, according to CNN,
is winning sixty three to thirty. Now that would incorporate,
theoretically hispanic anybody who's not white, right, people, they just
think about this. People of color is a phrase everybody
(05:27):
can use. Colored people is a super racist phrase. That
means that you are unable to use that phrase at all.
Take it outside of race. If I said, hey, you
know that's a coat that is yellow, you'd say, okay,
(05:48):
you could just say yellow coat. Like this whole idea
to police the phraseology. Think about how crazy that is.
Color of people, I mean people versus colored people.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
Yeah, you could say, you know that's that's Clay's T
shirt or that is the T shirt of Clay.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
But I mean this is what I think so many
of you feel deep within your soul. And by the way,
it's not just white people. It's that you are one
Facebook phrase, you are one Instagram post, and if it's
not you, it's your grandkid or your kid away from
(06:29):
not being able to be employed. And it's going to
be for something that is non intentional. Look, if you
are intentionally demeaning someone because of a characteristic they have
that they don't have a choice over, I understand why
that would be very attackable, that you should be attacked for.
(06:51):
In other words, but when there is something that is
occurring that is not intended, we've lost the ability to
use intent. Remember but I wrote about this, and I
think my life book not the most recent one, the
one before it. The F word, which we're not allowed
to say on this radio show, right, can't say curse
words on this radio show. But every single one of
you understands the difference between somebody sticking up their middle
(07:16):
finger at you and saying f you and saying, man,
that's efing incredible. One is an adjective that is actually
intended to be positive. The other one is a direct insult.
My point on this is all of us use context
of language all the time, and words have many different
(07:40):
meanings based on the context of which they are used.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
And so this is all interested about power politics. Is
all about power politics. It's it's meant to make people
bend the knee. You say what we say, you can say,
and we'll change what you're allowed to say on a
whim and hold you responsible for our whims. When it
comes to the language that is accepted, I think it's outrageous.
I think it's a terrible thing for the country that
there are words that some people can use freely and
(08:07):
all the time and it's fine. And if someone else
just uses the word to let's say, reference someone's usage
of the word bad person, bad person, destroy, that's completely
intellectually indefensible. Okay, it makes no sense at all. It
is about power, pure and simple, and it's very ingrained
in American society right now, very ingrained in people. We've
(08:28):
talked about this. You know, if you could have a
sixteen year old who is on video like stomping a
smaller kid on the head into a coma, well, you know,
maybe he had a bad day. If you have a
sixteen year old who's rapping and is you know says
the wrong word when they're trying to do the rap
that somebody else had done. Oh, I don't know if
they're going to get into college. That's the country that
(08:49):
we live in now, and it's absurd. It's absurd, but
everybody goes along with Oh, everybody goes along with it.
We have to because I don't get to make the rules.
You don't get to make the rules. These are the rules,
the reality of the country. Now.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Your grandkid can be on video rapping along with the
most popular song in America, your fourteen or fifteen year
old grandkid, and get canceled even crazier buck ten years
later when they've had some measure of success in life.
This happens all the time with young athletes. They go
back in time and they say, oh, yeah, he may
(09:23):
have just won the Most Outstanding Player at the Final Four,
but you know he quoted a rap lyric that was
inappropriate for a white kid to quote ten years ago.
How can we stand for this? I think I just
saw a story today. I mean, you know, we do
so much read in before the show, like Trump's nephew
or something says that you know he had said racial
slurs thirty and you're like, what, like, who, what are
(09:45):
you even talking about?
Speaker 1 (09:46):
Like they've already said he's a trader and he's a
rapist and they've prosecuted him and all this crazy stuff.
Oh well, they think the way to really get Trump
is to find that he said, you know, a naughty
word thirty years ago or something. I mean, it's just
but it just goes to show you it's just about power.
It's about politics. It's about having people then the knee
and do what they're told to do. But just I
(10:07):
think everybody should get ready. The bad faith, hyper sensitivity
on racial matters from the media is about to become
the law of the land, and they're gonna look for
anything they can to make this because why they need
to get ninety percent plus of the black vote for Kamala.
They know that, and they need to make you know,
(10:31):
sort of people without much I don't know, intestinal fortitude
or backbone in the suburbs. Who are you know, white
moderates to say, oh, I don't know, to Trump say
something racist, I can't vote for him. You know, they're
they're hoping that they can create this narrative and use it.
Just it's just about power. It has nothing to do
with the reality, has nothing to do with the truth
(10:54):
of Trump or the Republican positions right now. So and
they're desperate with the Kamala situation, so they'll do whatever
they have to do. But we're it's been one day
and you're already seeing these efforts to say, oh, you know,
never mind, I think Clay get ready. If they can
find a police use of force of any kind, oh yeah,
against a against a black American, a police use of
force that looks.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
Bad, it doesn't even happen. It's got to be a
white guy. It's got to be a white guy.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
If they can get a white cop doing something that
looks bad to a oh you know that, the media
is going to turn that the biggest story in the country.
They're going to do all the same tactics that they
did in twenty twenty, and they're hoping they can make
it all happen now. I mean, you know, I wish
I could say that we could stop it here by
just telling people the truth. But these are are powerful
pathways to rile up the mob on the street, and
(11:42):
that is what they're looking to do right now. Because
people keep asking as commalass policies. Talking about commless policies.
First of all, I mean as a senator, she was
the most left wing senator possible. So yeah, on abortion
all nine months, the border wide open, taxation higher I
want to get I want someone ask Kamala, where'd you
think about reparation? Well, let's push Kamala on the most
far left issues. We're going to do this. But there's also.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
She said on the Viewbuck that she supported potentially seventy
or eighty percent tax rate seventy or eighty percent. I
mean we're not talking about she is again. I think
what you're going to see is as her policies become
more self evident. Biden was smart enough never to say
that he supported defunding the police.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
I said when he was running, I was like, guys,
he's not going to do it. He knows, he knows
he's got to win over more moderates. Kamalas said that
the police need to be defunded. She bailed out the
rioters in Minneapolis who were burning down the city, and
there is I think that needs to be talked about
a lot. I also would just put out there as
a way of thinking about this election, and we often
(12:49):
talk about winning persuadables and winning moderates. Yeah, there's that.
There's also who shows up from our team, who shows
up from their team and let the votes be count right,
Meaning there's the turnout component of this too. And there
are a lot people are saying, oh, but Joe Biden,
did he get eighty million votes? Well, I mean, you know,
there's probably there were some Shenanigan shore. But I lived
(13:11):
in New York City, which is eighty percent voting for
Joe Biden, and it's million, eight point six million people.
So there are a lot of Democrats out there. So
if they just get all the Democrats to show up,
this is pretty tight. And that's what Kamala Harris I
think shows right now in the polls. All you have
to do is get all the Democrats to show up,
and you're within two percentage points.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
Netnyahu's speaking right now to a joint session of Congress
will tell you what he is saying, and it's powerful,
so far amazing. A guy from Israel is far better
at addressing Congress than the actual president of the United States.
But that's a whole another story. In the meantime, tunnel,
the towers Foundation, one organization above all others that makes
(13:52):
it their mission to care for the families of our
first responders and those who defend our freedoms. They've provided
more mortgage free homes for the families of our fallen
first responders. In fact, for more than two decades, they've
been meeting the challenges and providing more assurance to heartbroken
family members in the process. When a mortgage can be
paid off, the surviving family members can focus on their
(14:13):
own healing and adjusting to life without a loved one
who was taken in the line of duty. The Foundation
honors the legacy of those who have made the ultimate
sacrifice or who are severely injured while serving our country
and our communities. Tunnel to Towers is committed to helping
America keep its val to never forget nine to eleven
or the sacrifices of its greatest heroes. Help heroes who
(14:36):
protect the freedoms we all enjoy. Join us in donating
eleven dollars a month to Tunnel to Towers at T
two t dot org. That's t the number two t
dot org, keeping it real, keeping it honest. Clay Travis
and Buck Sexton welcome back in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show,
(14:59):
Benjamin Yahoo addressing joint session of Congress. John Fetterman, to
his credit, who has been right on pretty much everything
Israel Palestine actually willing to put on a suit to
show up for Netnyahu's address. We're going to play you
some of the cuts of that in a moment when
we come back on the Well, we've got Tommy Lairn
(15:21):
at the bottom side of this segment. We'll play some
of those cuts for you before the show is out.
But I wanted to play this because it's turned into
a major point of contention today. Was Kamala Harris or not?
Speaker 1 (15:34):
Or was she not?
Speaker 2 (15:35):
The borders are now? Some of this may just be
an argument of well, technically, what is a borders are?
Here is Biden in the White House putting Kamala Harris
in charge of his administration's response to the border crisis.
The chief, the head, the czar, whatever word you want
to use, it's applicable here. Here is that audio.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
The VP today because she's the most qualified person to
lead our efforts with Mexico and the Northern Triangle and
the countries that help. We're gonna need help in stemming
the movement of so many folks stemming the migration to
our southern border. It's not her full responsibility to job,
(16:24):
but she's leading the effort because I think the best
thing to do is to put someone who when he
or she speaks, they don't have to wonder about is
that where the president is? So she speaks, she speaks
for me. Done that to check with me. She knows
what she's doing, and I hope you can move us along.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
Okay, Buck, If I described anyone that worked for us
in that way, would it be wrong to say that
they were the czar of social media or the czar
of audio or video? If I said they speak for
us and they have this job, that's pretty straightforward. Yes,
I mean, no one suggesting that Kamala was actually like
(17:04):
a Kremlin official and ahead of the Russian Orthodox Church
or something like, Yeah, we use czar informally, right, like's
Nolan's saying that she was really a czar, which I
believe comes from the word caesar, which of course goes
back to ancient Rome. But they're they're just trying to
rewrite the history because right now they're having us Oh wow,
(17:26):
like we have somebody who's like we have a black
woman running for president. She does not have dementia. This
is amazing, and she is younger than a lot younger
than Biden and Trump. But then the reality is going
to kick in soon. Of this is the most left
wing person from the Senate and now obviously a VP.
But when she was in the Senate you could.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
Have possibly picked. And her positions on the border and
energy alone should be disqualifying from national office. But we'll see,
they're gonna lie a lot, and they're gonna cheat.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
We know.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
Israeli Prime Minister Benja Netanyahu is speaking right now, my friends,
to a joint session of Congress. And there's two hundred
and ninety days that have passed in this conflict already,
there are many hostages still in Hama's hands. This is
day in and day out, something that we are thinking about,
and our prayers are with the Israeli people. They are
(18:16):
under attack. So this is a moment where you can
do something. For more than forty years, the International Fellowship
of Christians and Jews has been on the ground in
Israel within hours of the war starting, and every day since,
the IFCJ has been feeding the hungry and protecting the vulnerable.
Clay is going to be out there in Israel in
just over a week. He's going to be meeting with
(18:37):
our friends in Israel to talk about some of the
great work that IFCJ has been doing support Israel through
the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. Go visit SUPPORTIFCJ
dot org. That's support IFCJ dot org. Welcome back in everybody.
We're joined by our friend Tommy Laren of OutKick and
(18:59):
Tommy Laren is fearless and you know it from Fox
News and from being all over the conservative commentary sphere
for many years now. Tommy, great to have you on
the show. Thanks for coming back.
Speaker 5 (19:12):
It's great to talk to you guys. And I'm really
excited that we're going to be talking about Operation Coconut
Tree Brats Kamala Harris because this is literally kept me
up for days on end thinking about this, mulling over
this very topic, so I can't wait to get into it.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
Well, let's start with this. Are you concerned about what
they'll be able to do with Kamala Harris now as
the nominee or are you looking forward to Trump being
able to dismantle this last minute change up for the Democrats.
Speaker 5 (19:43):
No, I'm very concerned, and I wish that I could
just sit here with you and tell you. I'm so
confident that Donald Trump's gonna run away with this, that
he's gonna win New York and he's gonna win New
Jersey and this is going to be some kind of
a landslide. But I don't underestimate Democrats ever. I don't
underestimate their capability to electioneer, which is going to be
a big part of this. But also they're so excited
(20:05):
and energized right now, and they have such a short
window that we actually get to explore everything of Kamala Harris.
And they designed it that way. They didn't want us
to have months and months on end for AFO research
or to really analyze her record. They wanted it to
be a good maybe ninety days of excitement about Kamala
(20:25):
and then just rush us to the finish line in
early voting. So I'm very concerned, and I can't lie
about it.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
All right, So let's dive into this question. You're young,
you've been married a couple of years now, Kamala Harris
gets her start, So I want to start with this question.
You just I think you just turned thirty. Not to
put you on blast hear, but you just got outside
of your twenties. Do you know any girls that were
friends of yours that dated guys who were in their
(20:53):
sixties when they were in their twenties. Is this something
that you think very many girls out there no friends
who have done because that's what Kamala Harris did with
the mayor of San Francisco, So let's start there. Do
you think there's very many girls out there who have
done this?
Speaker 5 (21:11):
I think there's a lot of gen Zers who are
already on that path. And the rise of social media
culture and younger women wanting to date older guys with
money because it lends to their influencer lifestyle and the
things that they can post on social media. I think
there's been a big change in the last five years
even where young women don't necessarily date for looks anymore.
(21:32):
They primarily date for money and access. So, unfortunately, I
think that Kamala Harris's story is relatable not only to
a lot of women, but to gen z and maybe
even some younger millennials out there. I'm a little concerned
that people aren't going to clutch their pearls over it,
that they're going to look at it and they're going
to identify with it, and that is going to be
(21:53):
a vulnerability. Even though it pains me to say it, Clay,
I do think it's a vulnerability.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
Okay, Saw, you totally agree with Tommy. You and you
and Buck are on the side here. My argument, and
I just want to hate because I do think this
is important and I wanted to get your take. My
argument is we heard for eight years Trump allegedly slept
with a porn star, and it got treated as if
it was somehow a major aspect of Trump's character and
(22:20):
whether or not he was fit for the office of president.
Kamala Harris starting her career and getting a job because
she slept with a powerful guy mayor of San Francisco
that's thirty years older than her, to me, is a
story that isn't that well known and it actually does
go if you're going to use the Trump argument to
her character. But you're saying you would lay off of that,
(22:41):
not even worry about that, and focus on other things
if you were given advice.
Speaker 5 (22:47):
I just wonder who you're trying to attract with discussing it,
because I think people that are Republican and Trump supporters,
They're like, all right, let's get it on the table,
let's go kit for tat here. But if you're trying
to bring in suburban women who might be on the
fence because they think Democrats are destroying America and destroying
their schools for their children, if you're trying to attract them,
(23:08):
I fear that the shots at Kamala, even though I
love them, calling her down his rocks or laughing cackle
and Kamala, I think those are funny. But I'm already
going to vote for Donald Trump. I'm thinking about some
of my friends who are in their late thirties early forties,
who are run on the fence right now, and I'm
worried that too many shots at Kamala about insulting her
(23:30):
sex life or even her gender and race. I'm just
worried it's going to turn them off. It makes Trump
supporters excited and energize, but if we're looking to bring
an independence into the souls, I'm not sure how helpful
it is.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
Well, Tommy, I'm sure you remember the movie Old School.
I feel a little bit like James Carville when he's
supposed to debate Frank the tank and he just has
to say that was perfect. I totally agree, Clay, and
I even going back and forth on this all week.
I totally agree with your sense of worthy attacks on
Kamala could actually backfire. I think that. And also it's funny, Clay,
(24:05):
I told him in New York City, a twenty year
age difference. If someone's in their twenties, they're dating somebody
in their forties or fifties' that's just like Friday night
at a nice restaurant, Like that's not even that. No
one even thinks twice about this. It's a little different,
I think in Tennessee than it is in San Francisco,
New York, la, et cetera. But beyond that, Okay, so
let's just assume for a second, we'll put aside the
(24:27):
personal history attacks on Kamala. What do you think is
the most effective line of attack to win over those
crucial last one percent of voters nationally based on the
policy side of things, like where do you think it's
the border? Do you think it's the like where do
you go after Kamala to win those who are winnable.
Speaker 5 (24:46):
Still remind people that she is a California radical. I
think that's the best way to go about it, because
people need to be concerned with that. They need to
look at what her record was before. And I'm not
talking about there trying to highlight that she was this
badass prosecutor, which is a joke. But let's talk about
the fact that she's a California radical. Let's talk about
(25:07):
the fact that she wanted to abolish ice, that she
wants to take your guns away, that she believes in
Medicare for all, that she was also signed on to
the Green New Deal. Remind people of that, and people
won't like it. So I think labeling her what she is,
an out of touch California liberal who's never mingled with
them the working class in her life, remind people of that,
(25:28):
and I think that's the best strategy.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
Tommy, what do you think about the VP choice? We
were talking earlier. There's talk that Shapiro, the governor of Pennsylvania,
is going to be the pick. If you look at
the gambling markets right now, Mark Kelly and Shapiro, Mark Kelly,
the Senator from Arizona right at the top. Does Kamala
Harris's VP pick matter very much in your mind? In
the trajectory of this race.
Speaker 5 (25:51):
Yeah, a million percent, because if she picks somebody that
presents as working class, middle class middle America, I really
worry that or in trouble. And I know I like JD. Vance.
I think he's a great guy. I think he's a
great leader for the Mega movement. But I was concerned
about jd Vance not being able to pull in new people.
And now my concern since it looks like Kamala is
(26:13):
going to be the nominee, I'm even more concerned about
that because if she picks somebody that's you know, similar
to JD Vance at least geographically, I think we're in for,
you know, a real hard time because Kamala represents more woke,
more leftists, and then if she picks a VP that
presents more middle class, then we've got on our side.
We've got Donald Trump and JD Vance who are essentially
(26:35):
going after the exact same boating block and not bringing
anybody new in. I worry that this is going to
be a blind spot. The abortion issue is going to
be a blind spot. So you know, the whole calculation
has changed now that we're dealing with Kamala and not Joe,
which I warned that it would. So that's why this
is also frustrating.
Speaker 4 (26:52):
Clay.
Speaker 5 (26:52):
I know that you were on the same page as
me that they were going to swap Joe out. But
we spend so much time, so much effort, so much
money talking about old Joe, and now we don't have
old Joe anymore.
Speaker 1 (27:03):
Well, this is kind of a bummer. Right now.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
Let me ask you this, Tommy. You just mentioned abortion.
It seems clear that the democracy argument at least is
going to be harder to make now based on how
Kamala Harris herself has ascended to the nomination, Not that
they can't make it, just that it's tougher. Uh, Kamala
is going to go in all in, I think on abortion, Trump,
I believe, I'm curious what you would say has handled
(27:29):
this fairly well by saying it's a states issue. What
do you think that battle is going to look like
going forward? And how should Trump handle that?
Speaker 5 (27:38):
Well, it wouldn't be the first time Republicans have lost
an election, an entire election cycle on the abortion issue.
So I'm concerned, and I'm not so much concerned about
Donald Trump because I think that he's been able to
neutralize that argument really well, especially during the debate against
Joe Biden, making it very clear he doesn't support a
national federal abortion ban. But again, I go back to
jd Vance and I'm a little concerned because they're already
(28:01):
playing the clips of him calling you know, basically women childless,
childless cat ladies.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
That's going to.
Speaker 5 (28:08):
Come back to bite jd Vance and Donald Trump and
then his extreme abortion comments are going to come back
to bite him. So unless he articulates very clearly that
he doesn't support a national abortion ban, the Democrats are
going to be able to run on it. That's all
they have. But unfortunately that will be a winning issue
for them if we don't really get our act together
on this side and make it clear.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
Tommy Laren, everybody, Tommy, where can folks go to a
watch your show?
Speaker 5 (28:34):
OutKick dot com Tommy Laren is felis of course on
YouTube as well all of our social media. You guys
know our you know, our OutKick brand obviously from Clay.
So we're just keeping, you know, keeping the dream alive.
Even though I was kind of a kill joy today,
I got to be honest.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
With the peoples.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
By the way, Buck is killing it with her show
if people haven't seen it, and if you let me
just say this tomm because I think it's important if
people have grandkids or kids that are younger and feel
like they're not being talked to. You're talking to people
in their twenties and thirties on a regular basis that
might otherwise not being get reached by traditional media.
Speaker 5 (29:12):
Yeah, and we're also explaining to the older folks what
Brat Summer is.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
And I don't know that.
Speaker 5 (29:17):
Because you're gonna hear a lot of it. You're gonna
hear a lot of these gen z terms. So I'm
going to do much to break it down.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
What may I ask or can you explain it on radio?
Or is that a no go?
Speaker 5 (29:29):
You guys haven't heard that they're brand and kamala as Brat.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
I know, but I don't know what Brat Summer is.
I've seen the headlines, but I don't know what that means.
Let the young lady tell us what is going on.
Let's tell the old men here what is BRAT Summer?
Speaker 5 (29:42):
So it comes from the Charlie XCX album that's titled
Brat and so that was kind of the way it started.
But Bratt by their estimation is somebody who's kind of messy,
likes to party, sometimes says dumb things, but it's cool
now to be brat, and Turley XCX tweeted out, Kamala
is b at. Kamala HQ Twitter has branded herself with
(30:03):
the same I guess, the same headline, with the same
green with the brat. So they're going full in on
Bratt and they're gonna be able to pick up a
lot of gen z ers who weren't excited about Joe Biden.
This is another blind spot for the Republican Party, so
we got to pay attention. Unfortunately.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
Well, it's just it's good. Clay and I have the
RIZ from what I understand, so that's really important.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
I love my boys. Kamala has Kamala. Tommy has met
my boys. I try to use their language as much
as I can to drive them crazy. So I've been
bragging about my RIZ and using the word cap as
frequently as I can, and they're driven insane pretty much
every day by this.
Speaker 5 (30:41):
Well, Bratt is the new one, So Claire, I hope
you can incorporate that into the lingo because it's going
to be three months of this.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
No classic Go check Out, Go check out Tommy Show.

Stay on top of election use with twenty four from
Clay and Buck, a weekly podcast you can find on
the free iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
Welcome Aga in Clay Travis buck Sexton show. Our thanks
to Tommy Larin for swinging by. I want to play
for some of you. Before we finished the show, Benjamin
Netanyahu has been addressing a joint session of Congress as
this show has been going on, and he spoke quite
eloquently about the battle between good and evil. I think
(32:13):
it's fair to say between the Jewish people and the
terrorists who attack them on October seventh, and here are
some of those clips. Let's start with cut twenty nine
explaining exactly what the cost was to Israel on a
proportional basis compared to the US on nine to eleven,
cut twenty nine.
Speaker 7 (32:33):
Like December seventh, nineteen forty one and September eleventh, two
thousand and one, October seventh is a day that will
forever live in infamy. It was the Jewish holiday of Sinkatua.
It began as a perfect day, not a cloud in
the sky. Thousands of young Israelis we're celebrating at an
(32:57):
outdoor music festival, and suddenly at six twenty nine am,
as children were still sleeping soundly in their beds, and
the towns and kid would see him next to Kaza.
Suddenly heaven turned into hell. Three thousand Kamas Duris stormed
(33:17):
into Israel. They put your twelve hundred people from forty
one countries, including thirty nine Americans proportionately compared to our
population size. That's like twenty nine eleven's in one day.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
I mean, that really kind of brings it Homebuck, And
then I wanted to play this he specifically Netanyahu did
shouted out the University of North Carolina fraternity brothers who
held up the United States flag and talked about the
fact that anti Israel protesters are Iran's useful idiots. Here
is cut thirty.
Speaker 7 (33:58):
We recently learned from the National Security Director Director of
US Director of National Intelligence that Iran is funding and
promoting anti Israel protests in America. They wanted to disrupt America,
so these protesters burn American flags even on the Fourth
of July. And I wish to salute the fraternity brothers
(34:20):
at the University of North Carolina who protected the American flag,
protected the American flag against these anti Israel protesters.
Speaker 1 (34:43):
That is powerful.
Speaker 2 (34:44):
And then one more time, Buck, just let me play
this because I think it's important for a lot of
parents and grandparents out there, and for some of you
youngsters who are home right now from college, are getting
ready to go away to college. You are Iran's useful
idiots when you're attacking Israel. Here's cut thirty one.
Speaker 7 (34:58):
Iran is funding the the usual protests that are going
on right now outside this building, not that many, but
they're there and throughout the city. Well, I have a
message for these protesters. When the tyrants of Tehran who
hang gays from cranes and murder women for not covering
their hair are praising, promoting and funding you, you have
(35:21):
officially become Iran's useful idiots.
Speaker 2 (35:25):
So well, said man Buck. I wish we had an
American president who could speak that eloquently right now.
Speaker 1 (35:33):
There's a reason that net Nyahoo is the great defender
of Israel in this moment of tremendous peril and has
been chosen for this role and served in it for
as many years as he has. The guy is very
compelling and has a vision and is a very eloquent
speaker in English as well as in Hebrew. So yeah,
(35:57):
Nen Yahoo's the real deal, and he demand for this moment,
and I think that very interesting to see what the
what the American Jewish community does in this election, given
the clear betrayal by the Biden administration and the you know,
holding back of communitions and things like this, it's just insane.
(36:19):
But remember the the platform for Humanitarian aid, the doc
that they built for like hundreds of millions of dollars,
It just essentially floated away. Yeah, and no one even
pays attention to this. This is the Biden Administration's big move.
It's it's preposterous.
Speaker 2 (36:34):
Next week, as you've mentioned, and I've said a couple
of times, I'm going to be traveling to Israel. Not
next week, but the week after. I'll be doing our
show live from Israel. I will see many of these
terror sites that he is referencing, be able to describe
it for all of you. Will be back Thursday edition
after Biden's big address in the Oval tonight
