Hour 3 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show delivers a powerhouse segment packed with legal insights, political analysis, and cultural commentary. The hour kicks off with a compelling interview featuring Harvard Law Professor Emeritus Alan Dershowitz, who discusses his new book, The Preventive State: The Challenge of Preventing Serious Harms While Preserving Essential Liberties. Dershowitz explores the legal and constitutional implications of preventive measures like deportation, critiques the ACLU’s partisan shift, and reflects on his own political evolution from a lifelong Democrat to an independent constitutional libertarian.
The conversation dives into the Sean “Diddy” Combs sex trafficking case, where Dershowitz predicts a likely conviction that could be overturned on appeal due to prejudicial evidence—drawing parallels to the overturned Harvey Weinstein conviction. He also weighs in on President Biden’s cognitive fitness, the media’s role in covering it up, and the potential legal ramifications of decisions made during his presidency, including the use of the 25th Amendment and presidential pardons.
The hour continues with an interview with Maine State Representative Laurel Libby, who recently won a Supreme Court ruling restoring her right to vote in the legislature after being censured for opposing biological males competing in girls’ sports. Libby discusses the political fallout in Maine, the narrow Democratic majority, and the broader implications for free speech, women's sports, and democratic representation.
Clay and Buck also touch on the media hypocrisy surrounding President Biden’s mental acuity, highlighting recent critiques from figures like Chris Cuomo and John Stewart, and mocking the legacy media’s delayed acknowledgment of Biden’s decline. The hosts close the hour with a humorous take on Katie Couric’s media presence, Don Lemon’s failed post-CNN ventures, and a preview of an upcoming segment analyzing Abraham Lincoln’s habeas corpus decision in the context of modern immigration policy.
