Some jack ass stole the clamp on my seat but Google is useless if I don't know the name of the part and I don't know the name of the red thing that was stolen either

A seat post clamp is easy enough to source, just need to measure the inside diameter of the seat tube (measured in mm). But replacing the rear shock on a bike like this will likely not be worth it (both in cost and effort). I’m sorry to say but you may be better off cruising Facebook marketplace or Craigslist and finding a similar bike for $50-$100.
Seatpost clamp and the shock, Amazon and AliExpress should have what you need, try holding the bike up and measure between the eyelets and you should get it close enough to useable
Honestly, as it is missing the rear shock, on a bike like that it might be easier and cheaper to just get another bike.
Shock and a seat post clamp.
If you can have a look on the manufacturers website to see if you can find the size of shock. It will have 2 numbers, the eye to eye measurement and the stroke length.
A example would be something like 230×65. Where 230 is the eye to eye and 65 is the stoke.
If you can, get the same size that was originally on the bike.
You will also need to find the right sized shock mounting hardware.
