Tennessee tried to execute death row inmate Christa Pike by lethal injection. She survived. Pike remained hospitalized, unconscious and on a ventilator after receiving two doses of the execution drug, while Governor Bill Lee ordered a review of what went wrong. Buck reacts to the extraordinary failed execution and asks how a state can botch the ultimate punishment this badly. He also takes on the larger death penalty debate, from lethal injection and decades-long appeals to whether executions should be carried out more quickly and transparently. Buck argues that if states are going to maintain the death penalty, the entire system needs a serious rethink.

The Cornell 7 case has taken another major turn. New York Governor Kathy Hochul has appointed Attorney General Letitia James as special prosecutor to investigate the sexual assault allegations surrounding a 2024 incident at a Cornell fraternity, after questions emerged about how police and the local district attorney handled the original investigation. Buck breaks down the conflicting accounts at the center of the case, the debate over intoxication and consent, and why he believes the decision to bring in James raises serious questions about politics, prosecutorial power and due process. With the criminal investigation now reopened, Buck examines what the Cornell 7 controversy could mean far beyond one college campus.

A Massachusetts lesbian bar is going viral after its decision to lift a long-standing N95 mask requirement for just one night a week triggered outrage, boycott threats and a chaotic community backlash.

Nearly two years after Thomas Crooks opened fire on Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, questions about the attempted assassination haven't gone away. Was there a second shooter? Did the Secret Service stand down? Did Crooks have help? Was the FBI hiding information about his online activity? Who paid for his cremation? Was there a foreign connection? And how did a 20-year-old gunman manage to get onto a rooftop with a clear shot at Trump in the first place? Buck takes on 10 of the biggest theories surrounding Thomas Crooks and the Butler assassination attempt, separating what the evidence actually shows from what remains unexplained.

Rep. Thomas Massie has introduced eight articles of impeachment against the Defense Secretary, including charges centered on the war in Iran, but Speaker Mike Johnson ended the House session before the issue came to a vote. Now the battle is set to return when Congress reconvenes after the midterms. Buck breaks down why Democrats could seize on the Hegseth impeachment effort during the lame-duck session, what they're accusing him of, and why Hegseth has become such a major political target in Washington. Plus, Buck argues this fight could be only the beginning, with impeachment investigations and battles over the Trump administration potentially becoming a major focus if Democrats take control of the House.

The Gaza debate has become one of the most heated political and cultural battles in America, and Buck Sexton says the latest controversies surrounding Macklemore, Don Lemon and pro-Palestinian activists reveal a much bigger problem. Buck reacts to the confrontation involving Rep. Haley Stevens and a pro-Palestinian activist, examines claims being made about Israel and the war in Gaza, and argues that outrage over the conflict often ignores Hamas’ role in the October 7 terrorist attack and other humanitarian crises around the world.

Why has a sports betting ad featuring Sydney Sweeney sparked such an intense reaction? Buck argues that the controversy goes beyond the ad itself and examines how Sweeney's public image, previous advertising controversies and perceived politics have made her a recurring target in the culture wars. Is the Sydney Sweeney backlash really about women in sports, or has she become a symbol in a much bigger cultural fight?

New details are emerging about the jury behind the Lindsay Clancy mistrial, including the lone holdout who refused to support a not-guilty-by-reason-of-insanity verdict. Buck reacts to what we're learning about the jury room, the backlash against the holdout juror and the intense debate surrounding criminal responsibility in the case. Clancy admitted to killing her three young children, but the trial ended in a mistrial after jurors were unable to reach a unanimous verdict. Buck argues that the holdout juror deserves credit for refusing to back down under pressure and rejecting the argument that Clancy should be absolved of criminal culpability because of her mental state.

Twenty-five years after September 11, 2001, Buck reflects on the day that changed America and an entire generation. As a college sophomore, Buck watched the second plane hit the World Trade Center and immediately understood that America was entering a new era. What followed shaped his generation, led thousands of Americans to serve their country and fundamentally changed how we viewed the world. Buck looks back at the fear and uncertainty of September 11, the wars that followed, the courage and sacrifice of those who answered the call and the remarkable resilience of the American people.

Buck Sexton breaks down the growing debate over AI doomerism, the race between major AI companies, the challenges of government regulation and why asking America to slow down could have major consequences as China continues developing its own artificial intelligence capabilities. AI is already transforming business, communication, transportation, national security and everyday life. The question isn't whether artificial intelligence will change the world. It's whether humans can adapt to what comes next.

Is the Pentagon suffering a “brain drain,” or is the Trump administration finally forcing the military establishment to change? Buck takes on the growing media narrative surrounding departures, resignations, and blocked promotions inside the Pentagon, including the resignation of Army Secretary Daniel Driscoll. While critics warn of turmoil in the military’s senior ranks, Buck argues the shake-up may be exactly what President Trump and Secretary Pete Hegseth were brought in to do.

President Trump is escalating the fight against Iran after a new wave of U.S. strikes targeted IRGC air defenses, radar, communications, mine-laying capabilities, and maritime targets near the Strait of Hormuz. President Trump is escalating the fight against Iran after a new wave of U.S. strikes targeted IRGC air defenses, radar, communications, mine-laying capabilities, and maritime targets near the Strait of Hormuz. Buck breaks down the latest U.S. military action against Iran, Tehran’s retaliation, and why control of the Strait of Hormuz could have consequences far beyond the Middle East. With global oil supplies moving through this critical chokepoint, the conflict could quickly affect gas prices, the U.S. economy, and the political landscape heading into the midterm elections.
