DEFCON ZERQ Ep. 043: Massie's Cow Money, Brennan's Threat & The Comey Cooperation Test

Alpha Warrior and Josh Reid open with the Thomas Massie scandal that broke today, an alleged relationship with Anessa West, a South Africa trip with corroborating photos, and a hush money offer from something called a cow money fund. Pair that with Marjorie Taylor Greene quietly relocating to a five million dollar house in Costa Rica, which conveniently does not extradite to The United States, and the dynamic of the so called America first dissenters starts to make a lot more sense.
From there they widen the scope. UAE and Saudi Arabia are now bombing Iran while Trump backs off kinetically and the federal gas tax disappears. Trump heads to China with seventeen CEOs and the NVIDIA chief, John Brennan goes on television to brag that a legion of deep state operatives still resists from inside the DOJ and CIA, and James O'Keefe drops video of Susie Wiles allegedly running the White House around Trump.
Plus the State Department's admission that the UN ran a migration pipeline through the Darien Gap, Tulsi Gabbard's task force on a hundred twenty four biolabs in fifty six countries, the Wisconsin FBI investigation, SCOTUS outlawing gerrymandering, and Alpha's six to nine month test for whether Comey is cooperating.

Why We Vote Ep. 173: Dr. Andrew Paquette on Voter Roll Algorithms and Fake Ballots

CannCon and Ashe in America welcome Dr. Andrew Paquette, known online as Zark Files, research director for New York Citizens Audit and one of the most technically rigorous voices in election integrity work. Dr. Paquette walks through five years of voter roll analysis across more than a dozen states, explaining how he reverse engineered four distinct algorithms embedded in New York's voter registration ID number system, discovered 1.5 million cloned records, and obtained photographically identical duplicate signatures from counties that should not have had any clones at all. He explains why the system is structurally designed to prevent anyone from linking a ballot to the fake voter who generated it, and why that means the question of how many races were affected may be permanently unanswerable. The conversation moves to Bexar County, Texas, where Dr. Paquette analyzed a check-in list showing over 4,000 fake voter check-ins injected after polls closed through a third-party cloud system called EPulse, which serves 29 states. He closes on the Save America Act, the limits of legislative fixes, and why he believes the entire election infrastructure needs to be scrapped and rebuilt.

Geopolitics with Ghost Ep. 106: Kagan's Checkmate, Haredi Crisis & Pakistan Deal - 5/12/26

Ghost opens episode 106 with the Senate hearing where Lindsey Graham attacks Pakistan as mediator, then cuts to Trump defending Pakistan's field marshal and prime minister in real time. Two landmark op-eds frame the hour: Robert Kagan's Atlantic piece declaring the Iran confrontation a strategic defeat for US-led hegemony, and Prince Turki al-Faisal's Arab News essay crediting MBS with quietly pulling the rug out from under the war's advocates. Ghost walks through reports of secret UAE and Saudi strikes on Iran, calling them psyops aimed at fracturing Muslim world unity. Israel's Starlink de-anonymizing tool surfaces as confirmation of Ghost's theory about Russian intelligence helping Iran identify Mossad and CIA protest operators. At home in Israel, the Haredi factions move to dissolve the Knesset after Netanyahu fails to deliver the Yeshiva draft exemption, with the IDF chief warning the military will collapse without 12,000 new recruits immediately. Smotrich says publicly the war must end with expanded Israeli borders. The World Jewish Congress governing board meeting closes the episode with Ronald Lauder calling for more aggressive hate speech prosecution and the Axel Springer CEO declaring Europe must become more Jewish.

The Daily Herold: 5/12/26 - Brennan Probe Active, Media Subpoenas & Hunter's Texts

Jon Herold comes in Tuesday energized and with receipts. The FBI is now actively interviewing CIA officials as part of the Brennan investigation into the 2017 Russian intelligence assessment, and Jon plays a recent Brennan clip where the man openly admits to knowing about a "legion" of professionals inside the government still working against Trump. Jon flags it as potential RICO furtherance on tape. The DOJ also officially warned reporters they should expect subpoenas in the classified Iran war leaks investigation, with the Wall Street Journal already having received them. Jon reads newly released Senate committee documents showing Hunter Biden Mann Act evidence including text messages, goes live down a rabbit hole when he notices the name "Robert" in one exchange, and arrives somewhere interesting. Kari Lake is being sent to Jamaica as ambassador and Doug Mastriano to the Slovak Republic, and Jon sees a familiar template: Trump takes big election integrity figures, parks them in ambassadorships, and they disappear from the conversation. Also: the California mayor who just pleaded guilty to being a Chinese spy is named Wang, Stacey Abrams has been subpoenaed in Georgia, ODNI is reviewing 120 US-funded foreign biolabs, and Trump wants Wall Street banned from buying houses.

Badlands Daily: 5/12/26 - Brennan Dog Whistles, Netanyahu Aid Bomb, NATO Fracturing

CannCon and Ghost open Tuesday's geopolitics-heavy show with Ghost leading the charge. John Brennan goes on MSNBC and openly tells embedded bureaucrats to hold the line, and James Comey follows with the same message minutes later, giving CannCon two dog whistles in one segment to unpack. Netanyahu tells 60 Minutes he wants to zero out the $3.8 billion in annual US military aid within a decade, and CannCon catches that he skipped the 2020 Trump meeting entirely in his timeline of conversations about Iran. Meanwhile, Israeli Finance Minister Smotrich says the war must end with Israel changing its borders to include Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, and the West Bank. Ghost breaks down the Knesset dissolution threat and why Netanyahu's only card left is reigniting the Iran war. The UAE is secretly attacking Iran while simultaneously begging Trump for a currency swap, as its banks hemorrhage hundreds of billions. Venezuela's oil is back at 2018 levels, global reserves are draining at a record pace from the Strait of Hormuz blockade, and Alaskan oil leases hit $163 million at auction. Ghost connects Trump's tariff history from McKinley through 1912 to today. Finnish president Stubb is profiled as a Western-groomed globalist, and a French presidential candidate calls for France to leave NATO.

Baseless Conspiracies Ep. 184: Call-In Show, UFOs, Woke Odyssey and Iran Strategy

Episode 184 is a call-in show, and the audience delivers. Jon Herold and Zak Paine open with a reaction to Christopher Nolan's Odyssey trailer, breaking down the DEI casting choices that put Elliot Page as Achilles and Lupita Nyong'o as Helen of Troy, and the Oscar diversity requirements that made it happen.
From there, the conversation covers the UFO file releases and Jon's concern that the slow rollout is setting up a future "alien creation story" op designed to replace God with extraterrestrials. A caller shares a strange experience with Fitbit's AI repeatedly telling her to "plug in" using language that sounded less like health advice and more like machine self-description.
Later callers bring up weather modification, cloud seeding, and the NEXRAD radar connections, prompting Jon and Zak to discuss Iran now getting rain after radar facilities were reportedly destroyed. The show closes with Jon's argument that Trump's Iran operation is as much about removing Israel's pretext for regional war as it is about Iran, and what Netanyahu's stated plan to wean off US aid actually signals.

Culture of Change Ep. 148: Golden Age Films, Fake Elections, and Real Faith

Ashe sits down with filmmaker Matt Thayer for a wide ranging conversation about telling stories that matter in a culture that desperately needs them. From "The Trump I Know" to the upcoming theatrical release "No Limbs, No Limits," the story of Nick Vujicic, this episode is part film conversation, part theology, and part election accountability. What does authentic Christian faith look like when the camera is rolling? What does a fair election actually require? And what does it mean that Trump is now naming names on Truth Social? Ashe ties it all together with a breakdown of the 22 principles driving America's transformation program. Buckle up.

The Book of Trump - Chapter 51: The Rockefellers

Ghost and Jordan Sather team up to trace the most consequential dynasty in American history: the Rockefellers. From John D. Rockefeller's oil monopoly and JPMorgan's steel consolidation to the invention of the holding company by the law firm that later became the CIA, the dots connect in ways that still reverberate in 2026. Jordan breaks down how the Rockefellers engineered the modern pharmaceutical industrial complex through the Flexner Report, dismantling natural medicine in favor of petroleum-based drugs. Ghost adds how the same family funded the standardized education system, ran a reverse-psychology psyop to create the Federal Reserve, planted Henry Kissinger at Harvard, and ultimately gave birth to the World Economic Forum and the Trilateral Commission. A two-host deep dive into the blueprint of the system Trump is currently dismantling.

Breaking Free of Psyops Ep. 6: UFO Disclosure and the Gateway to a Spiritual Reset

Aliens are coming. Or so they want you to believe. In this episode, Matt Ehret traces the UFO disclosure movement from its origins in 1947 CIA memos to today's Pentagon whistleblowers, and finds the same occult networks running the show at every stage. From Allen Dulles using Carl Jung's archetype theory as a psychological warfare handbook, to the Rockefeller-funded promotion of LSD through Time and Life magazines, to Scientology-linked figures founding Project Stargate, Ehret builds the case that UFO disclosure is not a truth movement. It is a multigenerational magic trick designed to dismantle Christianity, manufacture a new synthetic spirituality, and unite a frightened population under a one world framework. The aliens were never the point. The spiritual reset always was.

Alphas Make Sandwiches Ep. 69: Getting the Sack, Join or Die & The Birth of Globalism

It's episode 69, hey hey, and the ladies are not going to mention it. Jackie shares the pet photo challenge submissions including her bird who tried to drink her reflection water, and Ashe tells the proper version of Caleb's eighth birthday in Manhattan involving the Intrepid, Spider-Man dropping web from the rafters, Dylan's Candy Bar, and one harrowing taxi near miss. Christy unpacks the British idiom getting the sack, complete with a 1525 Zach spelling and the mental image of a Victorian raccoon hauling its belongings out the door. Ashe walks through a packed week in history covering Alan Shepard going to suborbital space (allegedly), Bobby Sands and the idea that everyone has a part to play, the Roger Bannister sub-four-minute mile, the Channel Tunnel, the Chinese Exclusion Act and its modern TPS parallels, the Lusitania, VE Day, Coca-Cola's first glass at Jacobs Pharmacy, Olympic boycotts as psyop fuel, Ben Franklin's Join or Die cartoon as the first political meme, the end of the Civil War, the Schuman Declaration as the birth of globalism, the transcontinental railroad golden spike, and Deep Blue defeating Kasparov as the original AI fear porn rerun we are still being sold today. Plus Gart updates and why all roads lead to Mark Elias being upset.
