    The Truth with Lisa Boothe: Trump Economy 2.0: Tariffs, Inflation, AI Jobs & Tax Cuts Explained
    Apr 16 2026

    On this episode, Lisa breaks down the state of the U.S. economy under President Trump’s second term and what it means for workers, businesses, and your wallet. The Heritage Foundation Economist Peter St. Onge joins the show to analyze how tax cuts, deregulation, and tariffs are reshaping growth—and whether it’s working.

    We dive into rising oil prices, inflation concerns, and why Americans still feel squeezed despite cooling inflation numbers. Plus, a closer look at tariffs as both a negotiating tool and a potential tax on consumers, and whether they’re truly bringing jobs back to the U.S.

    The conversation also explores the future of artificial intelligence and automation—what jobs are most at risk, where new opportunities could emerge, and how wages may shift in the years ahead.

    Finally, we unpack the real impact of the latest tax changes, including how the “Big Beautiful Bill” is affecting refunds, small businesses, and long-term economic growth.

    Daily Review with Clay and Buck - Apr 16 2026
    Apr 16 2026
    Politics of Envy Buck Sexton delivers an extended and highly critical assessment of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Governor Kathy Hochul. He argues that Mamdani’s proposed policies—including a $30 million, government-run grocery store and new luxury “pied-à-terre” taxes on properties valued over $5 million—reflect economic ignorance and Marxist class warfare. Buck contends these policies will worsen the city’s affordability crisis, drive investment out of New York, and accelerate population flight to states like Florida, Texas, and Tennessee. He frames Mamdani’s agenda as punishment of perceived “class enemies” rather than serious solutions to housing costs, taxation, or supply constraints created by overregulation and union-dominated construction markets. The hour also addresses a tragic national security story involving the killing of a Department of Homeland Security employee by an individual who should not have been in the country. Buck connects the incident to broader failures in border enforcement and immigration policy, arguing it represents yet another preventable crime linked to lax enforcement and progressive governance. He further references political fallout surrounding Congressman Eric Swalwell, suggesting legal and political consequences loom following his resignation and ongoing scrutiny. Ryan's Homeland PAC An interview with political data analyst Ryan Girdusky (host of It’s a Numbers Game), who breaks down the sudden collapse of Eric Swalwell’s California gubernatorial campaign. Buck and Girdusky describe Swalwell’s exit as one of the fastest political implosions in modern politics and analyze how his former support is splintering among Democratic contenders such as Tom Steyer and local California officials. They explain how California’s top‑two primary system could theoretically allow Republicans to lock Democrats out of the general election—but only if GOP candidates aggressively consolidate independent voters, a task Girdusky says remains extremely difficult. The conversation then pivots to national polling and President Donald Trump’s approval numbers, particularly in the context of the ongoing Iran blockade. Girdusky acknowledges Trump’s polling dip but notes that Republican support has stabilized rather than collapsed, avoiding the kind of freefall seen during past administrations. He emphasizes that economic issues—especially tax refunds, take‑home pay, and “no tax on tips” policies—matter far more to voters than foreign policy and argues that Republicans should relentlessly campaign on economic improvements rather than geopolitical conflicts. Immigration becomes a dominant theme as Girdusky announces the launch of Homeland PAC, a new political action committee designed to defend Republicans who oppose amnesty and to primary GOP lawmakers who support it. Buck strongly endorses this strategy and follows with a detailed critique of recent House Republicans who voted with Democrats to extend Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Haitian migrants—status originally granted in 2010 and repeatedly renewed. Buck argues that TPS has become de facto permanent immigration, undermining the rule of law, and sharply criticizes both Democrats and Republicans who support extensions as engaging in backdoor amnesty. Hold Politicians Accountable Buck pushes back on the common political phrase “a nation of immigrants,” arguing it oversimplifies American history and is frequently used to justify unchecked legal and illegal immigration. He calls for slower, more selective legal immigration, reduced chain migration, and stricter enforcement, including reforms to asylum abuse and visa programs such as H‑1B. Buck expresses cautious confidence in DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin but warns Republicans against adopting Democratic language that blurs enforcement priorities. Eclipse Guy on Artemis II Awe NASA’s Artemis II mission and the renewed push for human space exploration. Buck enters the conversation as a skeptic, questioning the significance of returning to the Moon, while producer Greg passionately explains why Artemis II matters as a technological, cultural, and strategic stepping stone toward Mars and long‑term human expansion beyond Earth. The discussion covers innovation, national ambition, SpaceX’s role in reshaping space travel, and the importance of maintaining American leadership in exploration and engineering.

  • Hour 1 - The Politics of Envy

    Hour 1 - The Politics of Envy
    Apr 16 2026
    Hour 1 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show is led solo by Buck Sexton and centers heavily on escalating U.S.–Iran tensions, domestic political fallout, and sharp criticism of progressive governance in New York City. Buck opens the hour with a detailed breakdown of the Trump administration’s current military posture toward Iran, focusing on the naval blockade of Iranian shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. Using remarks from Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, Buck explains that the United States is choking off Iran’s economic lifeline by preventing Iranian oil exports while allowing international shipping to continue, a strategy designed to maximize pressure without a full-scale war. Hegseth warns that Iran faces a stark choice: abandon its nuclear ambitions or face intensified U.S. action, including potential strikes on critical infrastructure, power generation, and Iran’s energy sector, underscoring that the U.S. Navy maintains absolute control of the region with only a fraction of its total force. Buck analyzes the likely endgame of the Iran blockade, arguing that the Trump administration’s real objective is not regime change, but permanently preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. He emphasizes that reopening maritime traffic is secondary to forcing Tehran to abandon its nuclear program, and he notes that Iran’s leadership has historically shown a willingness to allow its population to suffer rather than concede, referencing past conflicts and decades of international isolation. The hour frames the situation as high-stakes geopolitical pressure, with Trump betting that sustained economic strangulation will either force Iranian capitulation or trigger internal unrest against the IRGC regime. Domestically, Hour 1 pivots to New York politics, where Buck delivers an extended and highly critical assessment of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Governor Kathy Hochul. He argues that Mamdani’s proposed policies—including a $30 million, government-run grocery store and new luxury “pied-à-terre” taxes on properties valued over $5 million—reflect economic ignorance and Marxist class warfare. Buck contends these policies will worsen the city’s affordability crisis, drive investment out of New York, and accelerate population flight to states like Florida, Texas, and Tennessee. He frames Mamdani’s agenda as punishment of perceived “class enemies” rather than serious solutions to housing costs, taxation, or supply constraints created by overregulation and union-dominated construction markets. The hour also addresses a tragic national security story involving the killing of a Department of Homeland Security employee by an individual who should not have been in the country. Buck connects the incident to broader failures in border enforcement and immigration policy, arguing it represents yet another preventable crime linked to lax enforcement and progressive governance. He further references political fallout surrounding Congressman Eric Swalwell, suggesting legal and political consequences loom following his resignation and ongoing scrutiny. Throughout Hour 1, Buck weaves in reactions from listener talkbacks, blending serious political analysis with humor and cultural commentary, including lighthearted exchanges about fashion habits like drawstring pants. The tone alternates between hardline national security analysis, economic critique, and conversational engagement with the audience.
