    The Truth with Lisa Boothe: Inside the Minnesota Fraud Scandal with Joe Teirab
    Dec 23 2025

    In this episode, Lisa breaks down the explosive Minnesota fraud scandal involving federal child nutrition funds, she is joined by former federal prosecutor Joe Teirab who examines how millions of taxpayer dollars were misused through weak oversight and regulatory failures. The conversation exposes how easily the system was exploited, the role of political actors and government agencies, and why accountability mechanisms failed to stop the fraud sooner.

    Lisa and Joe also explore ongoing efforts to recover stolen funds, disturbing links between fraud proceeds and terrorist financing, and the broader national implications—raising serious questions about whether similar schemes could be unfolding in other states. With taxpayers left footing the bill, this episode highlights the urgent need for government reform, stricter oversight, and real consequences to prevent future abuse of federal aid programs.

  • Hour 1 - Trump’s Economy Surges Past Expectations

    Hour 1 - Trump’s Economy Surges Past Expectations
    Dec 23 2025
    Hour 1 of The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show, guest-hosted by Brett Winterble from WBT in Charlotte, kicks off with optimism and hard-hitting analysis of America’s economic resurgence and political battles as 2025 closes. Brett opens by celebrating blockbuster economic news: U.S. GDP surged 4.3% in the third quarter, the fastest growth in two years and far above economists’ 3.2% forecast. Consumer spending also jumped 3.5%, signaling strong confidence and reinforcing President Trump’s America First economic agenda. Winterble frames this as kryptonite for Democrats, whose impeachment-focused strategy falters against robust growth and rising optimism heading into 2026. The hour contrasts Trump’s pro-growth policies with the Biden-era failures, blasting the previous administration for prioritizing DEI initiatives and identity politics over prosperity. Brett warns that Democrats have no credible economic plan, relying instead on divisive cultural narratives and regulatory overreach. He cites the Schumer shutdown’s delay of economic reports as evidence of political gamesmanship aimed at obscuring Trump’s success. Meanwhile, Trump’s leadership is credited with restoring confidence, strengthening the military, and rewarding service members with $1,776 bonuses, a stark reversal from Biden’s controversial vaccine mandates that purged troops from the ranks. Immigration and fraud scandals also dominate the discussion. Brett spotlights the release of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, an illegal immigrant linked to trafficking, after a judge blocked his deportation, calling this emblematic of Democratic priorities that undermine law enforcement and national security. He then pivots to the Minnesota welfare fraud scandal, where up to $9–18 billion was allegedly stolen from federally funded programs. In response, Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks introduced the Welfare Abuse and Laundering Zillions (WALLS) Act, requiring HHS to investigate entitlement programs with sudden spending spikes, aiming to prevent systemic abuse and protect taxpayers. Listeners join the conversation with sharp insights on political corruption, immigration, and cultural shifts. Brett amplifies concerns about Democratic efforts to dilute conservative influence through mass migration and identity-driven policies, citing Boston Mayor Michelle Wu’s remarks praising the Somali community as an example of virtue signaling overshadowing accountability. He underscores that immigration must be legal and vetted, warning against policies that prioritize ideology over security. The hour closes with a look ahead to Federal Reserve policy, as economist Kevin Hassett—considered a leading candidate to replace Jerome Powell—calls for aggressive interest rate cuts to sustain growth amid an AI-driven productivity boom. Brett frames this as part of Trump’s broader strategy to supercharge the economy while Democrats remain fixated on distractions like the Epstein files, which recent reports confirm contain no damaging information about Trump.

  • Hour 2 - Global Terrorism and Domestic Policy Collide

    Hour 2 - Global Terrorism and Domestic Policy Collide
    Dec 23 2025
    Hour 2 of The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show, guest-hosted by Brett Winterble from WBT in Charlotte, delivers a powerful mix of cultural, legal, and national security analysis alongside economic debate. Brett opens with a major legal development out of California: a federal judge struck down state policies that allowed schools to hide students’ gender identity changes from parents. Judge Roger T. Benitez issued a permanent injunction barring educators from misleading parents or using different pronouns and names without parental knowledge. Brett emphasizes the ruling as a victory for parental rights and the First Amendment, arguing that teachers should not be forced into secrecy or ideological compliance. He calls out the undue burden placed on educators and frames the decision as a pushback against progressive overreach in public education. The conversation then pivots to Representative Ayanna Pressley’s remarks on gender-affirming care, where she equated treatment for gender dysphoria with urgent medical needs like broken bones and diabetes. Brett critiques the inclusion of taxpayer-funded gender transitions under Medicaid, questioning priorities when veterans and vulnerable populations struggle to access basic healthcare. He warns that such policies exemplify the left’s incremental approach to expanding government control over personal and family decisions. Midway through the hour, Brett welcomes Bill Roggio of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies and Long War Journal for an in-depth discussion on global terrorism following the ISIS-inspired Bondi Beach attack in Australia, which targeted Jewish worshippers during Hanukkah. Roggio dismantles the myth that ISIS is defeated, explaining how jihadist networks remain active in Southeast Asia, Africa, and the Middle East through recruitment, training, and financing via criminal enterprises, crypto transfers, and hawala systems. He highlights the Philippines as a training hub and warns that attacks like Bondi demonstrate ISIS’s ability to adapt and exploit security gaps. Roggio also raises alarms about the Minnesota welfare fraud scandal, suggesting that stolen funds could have been funneled to extremist groups like Al-Shabaab, given historical ties between Somali-American communities and jihadist recruitment. He underscores the likelihood that even a fraction of the $9–18 billion lost could significantly bolster terror operations abroad. The segment closes with a sobering look at emerging threats in Syria, where two U.S. soldiers were killed by a member of Syrian security forces. Roggio questions official narratives blaming ISIS, noting the group’s silence and pointing to deeper complexities involving Islamist factions within the Syrian government. Brett ties these insights to domestic vulnerabilities, warning that terrorists study attacks like the Brown University shooting to replicate tactics against soft targets. Finally, Brett engages listeners on Trump’s tariff policies, responding to a caller critical of protectionism. He defends reciprocal tariffs as leverage to secure fair trade deals, arguing that America’s economic strength allows it to dictate terms and protect domestic industries. This spirited debate underscores broader themes of sovereignty, economic resilience, and national security that define the hour.

I love these guys, I listen a few times a week, However, I have to manually do a search every time because audible will not let me follow this particular podcast for some reason. I follow others, but curiously, I can't follow a nice conservative one? I'm sure it has nothing to do with Amazon's political agenda or leanings. I'm sure it's an honest to God glitch.

Watch out for leftist Audible

provides interesting insight and commentary on the news of the day from a non-left wing perspective. One a really smart guy, the other kind of a doofus, but they're funny together. I'll let you figure out who's who.
