When Politics and Pop Culture Collide

Clay and Buck spotlight how the incident dominated headlines and even infiltrated pop culture over the weekend, with celebrities and NBA coaches spreading misinformation. At the Golden Globes, comedian Wanda Sykes wore a pin honoring Renee Good and called the shooting “murder,” while NBA coaches Steve Kerr and Doc Rivers echoed similar claims during post-game press conferences, accusing ICE agents of committing murder and framing the enforcement of immigration law as racist. The hosts dismantle these narratives, citing video evidence showing Good obstructed ICE operations by parking her car perpendicular in the road and refusing to comply, making the shooting a lawful act of self-defense. But did any of you hear about Harold Harper? He was the unarmed elderly white man shot in the back by a black man while he was gardening in his front yard in Florida. Where are the chants to say his name?

The White Liberal Woman Problem

Democrats and activist networks are manufacturing outrage over what federal authorities confirm was a lawful use of force. They argue that progressive rhetoric and organized protests are deliberately designed to provoke violent confrontations, citing reports that left-wing groups train activists to obstruct ICE operations and create viral flashpoints. The hosts call for stricter enforcement, including arresting individuals who block immigration raids and even prosecuting those who incite dangerous behavior—such as the partner who shouted “Drive baby drive” moments before the fatal incident. Clay and Buck play a flashback clip from last October from Chicago, ILL superintendent of police, Larry Snelling, telling city residents not to box in ICE or other law enforcement because it's considered a threat and they can respond with deadly force.

The conversation expands to a Portland shooting involving Customs and Border Protection agents, where two suspected members of Venezuela’s Tren de Aragua cartel attempted to ram law enforcement vehicles. Buck underscores the cartel’s brutality—highlighting its ties to transnational crime and terrorism—while criticizing Portland Police Chief Bob Day for prioritizing performative apologies over public safety. Clay and Buck argue that progressive leadership in cities like Portland has created lawless environments where criminal gangs thrive, eroding trust in law enforcement and endangering communities.

The WWIII People are Wrong

Clay and Buck analyze two weeks of massive protests across Iran, sparked by runaway inflation and economic collapse following the failed 12-day war against Israel. The demonstrations began with merchants refusing to sell goods as the Iranian currency became nearly worthless, and have since spread nationwide despite brutal crackdowns and thousands of reported deaths. The hosts highlight the stark contrast between the silence of American college campuses on this issue and their previous activism for Gaza, arguing that identity politics drives selective outrage—since Iranians resisting a theocracy don’t fit the left’s preferred narrative.

The discussion explores the historical and geopolitical context of Iran’s Islamic regime, which has ruled since 1979 and transformed a once-modern nation into a failed state. Clay and Buck compare Iran’s decline to Venezuela’s collapse under socialism, noting that both nations squandered vast natural resources through authoritarian mismanagement. They revisit the Obama administration’s misguided nuclear deal strategy, which prioritized appeasement over supporting Iranian freedom, and stress that the regime’s survival perpetuates terrorism and instability across the Middle East. The hosts debate potential U.S. responses, weighing the risks of direct intervention against strategic strikes on IRGC and Basij strongholds. They caution that overt American involvement could allow Tehran to frame the uprising as foreign interference, yet argue that targeted actions might accelerate regime collapse without requiring “boots on the ground.”

Iran's Berlin Wall Moment?

Listeners with Iranian roots join the conversation, offering passionate firsthand perspectives. Callers describe life before the revolution—when Iran embraced Western freedoms—and advocate for a return to democratic governance, possibly under exiled Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi as a transitional figure. They emphasize that Iranians overwhelmingly reject the current regime and would welcome U.S. and Israeli support through precision strikes rather than occupation. Buck explains the complexity of regime change, noting that palace coups and insider defections historically pose the greatest threat to authoritarian systems, while Clay u
