In hour 1 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton show, the hosts dive into several pressing topics, starting with a discussion on President Biden's mental and physical cognition. They highlight a new book that reveals concerns within the White House about Biden's ability to pass a cognitive test in February 2024. This segment underscores the alleged cover-up by Biden's staff, who publicly claimed he was fit for office while privately fearing he wouldn't pass basic cognitive assessments. The conversation also touches on the deep ties between the Democrat party and the corporate media, emphasizing the media's role in perpetuating this narrative.

The hosts then shift to the political implications of Biden's condition, discussing the potential criminality of the cover-up and the integrity of Biden's longtime doctor, Kevin O'Connor. They speculate on the motivations behind the early debate decision in June 2027, suggesting it was a strategic blunder by Biden's team.

Next, Clay and Buck discuss the broader impact of this revelation on the credibility of the Democrat party and the media, comparing it to a rigged sports game. They argue that real journalism should have exposed these issues before the election, not after. The conversation also includes a brief mention of the New York Knicks' comeback win over the Boston Celtics, adding a lighter note to the discussion.

The hosts then address the executive order signed by Trump to end gain-of-function research, linking it to the Wuhan Institute of Virology and the origins of COVID-19. They criticize Dr. Fauci's role in covering up the involvement of American tax dollars in the research and call for criminal charges against him.

The hour concludes with a preview of the upcoming interview with Senator Rand Paul in the third hour, where they plan to discuss various topics including the executive order, the Ukraine mineral deal, tariff talks, and student loans.
