Hour 2 of The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show delivers a powerful deep dive into breaking news and cultural flashpoints shaping America. The hour opens with an exclusive interview with journalist Nick Sorter, who recounts his shocking arrest in Portland during violent Antifa-led protests outside an ICE facility. Sorter describes being assaulted while documenting the chaos, saving a burning American flag, and then being charged with disorderly conduct despite Antifa’s ongoing lawlessness. He reveals that Attorney General Pam Bondi personally called him, announcing a Department of Justice civil rights investigation into the Portland Police Bureau. Clay and Nick expose how Portland’s leadership and police culture have allowed five years of unchecked riots, fueling public demand for federal intervention and National Guard deployment.
The conversation escalates as White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt addresses Sorter’s arrest live from the podium, condemning Portland’s failure to protect journalists and pledging to review federal aid to states that “allow anarchy.” Clay underscores how this crisis reflects a broader collapse of law and order in Democrat-run cities, warning that Portland’s inability to restore safety has even cost it opportunities like a Major League Baseball franchise—an example of how urban decay impacts economic growth and corporate investment.
Hour 2 then pivots to Michigan politics with State Senator Eric Nesbitt, a Hillsdale College graduate and GOP candidate for governor. Nesbitt outlines why Michigan is a critical battleground for 2026 and 2028, citing Trump’s recent victory and growing Republican momentum. He blasts Governor Gretchen Whitmer’s COVID lockdowns, sharing a deeply personal story of being barred from comforting his wife during a miscarriage due to pandemic restrictions. Nesbitt vows to reverse Whitmer’s policies, restore parental rights, and fight progressive agendas like men competing in women’s sports and pronoun enforcement in schools. He frames Michigan as the “front line” in the battle to protect families, small businesses, and traditional values, pledging to make Michigan competitive again for jobs and education.
The hour closes with breaking news: President Trump posts a dramatic video on Truth Social showing U.S. forces destroying a drug-smuggling boat off Venezuela, signaling his aggressive crackdown on cartels. Clay takes listener calls reacting to Portland’s chaos, federal intervention, and cultural politics, emphasizing how Trump’s law-and-order approach resonates nationwide.
