Badlands Media

Jon Herold returns from a packed weekend at GART in Deadwood, reflecting on the highs of the event and the post-conference crash before diving back into the grind. He covers Trump’s high-profile meeting with Putin in Alaska, Zelensky and European leaders at the White House, and the possibility of a bilateral meeting to end the war in Ukraine. The episode also digs into declassified FBI documents exposing DOJ interference in the Clinton Foundation probe, Newsmax’s $67 million settlement with Dominion, and moves toward eliminating mail-in voting. Jon highlights shifts in federal oversight of chip manufacturing, National Guard deployments in Washington, and Bill Barr’s testimony in the Epstein investigation. He wraps with a plug for Badlands’ new lotion brand, Soft Disclosure, supporting independent media while keeping your skin smooth.
