In this high-energy episode of Badlands Daily, CannCon and Alpha Warrior unpack a whirlwind of political and global developments. They dive into RFK Jr.’s fiery testimony exposing corruption at NIH and the pharmaceutical industry, questioning the value of cancer research while praising natural health approaches and detoxification practices.

The big shocker? Democrat Ro Khanna introduces a bill to codify Trump’s executive order on drug pricing, putting Republicans on the spot to back a wildly popular, America First policy. The duo rips into congressional laziness, Big Pharma lobbying, and Speaker Mike Johnson’s latest vote cancellation as more proof that D.C. is built to stall real reform.

The show also highlights Trump’s historic visit to Qatar, where he received a royal welcome, secured billion-dollar aerospace deals, and hinted at deeper Middle East peace efforts. The hosts draw parallels between Trump’s Riyadh speech and JFK’s historic calls for diplomacy, speculating about both the symbolism and potential threats Trump faces.

Packed with RFK smackdowns, geopolitical strategy, and sharp cultural commentary, from solar grid sabotage to vaccine whistleblowers, this episode blends substance and swagger in classic Badlands style.
