Badlands Daily - 6/26/26 Live from GART 12 in Deadwood

CannCon and Chris Paul bring Badlands Daily live from GART 12 in Deadwood, South Dakota with a Friday show full of Supreme Court decisions and congressional takedowns. Venezuela is hit with back to back 7.2 and 7.5 magnitude earthquakes as the country was beginning its reintegration into global trade, and Trump immediately offers federal assistance. The Brandon Gill versus SNAP hearing clip goes viral: the SNAP director cannot confirm that drinking soda every day is unhealthy while testifying in front of Congress, and Gill reveals her advocacy group is funded by General Mills, which profits directly from SNAP dollars. A House Oversight investigation finds 571,000 federal employees and retirees are delinquent on taxes to the tune of $6 billion, the IRS sent 427,000 delinquency notices and only 4,700 responded, and Chris Paul raises the logical follow-up: are some of these people even real? The Supreme Court strikes down Hawaii's concealed carry property permission law 6-3, upholds the asylum seeker metering policy 6-3 with a Thomas concurrence declaring illegal aliens have no equal protection rights against the federal government, and green-lights TPS termination for Haitians and Syrians. Birthright citizenship is expected to drop before the end of the day. A Long Island school clerk was caught physically tearing up ballots and a new election was ordered.

DEFCON ZERQ Ep. 049: The White House Goes Full Q, Golden Dome Goes Live, Pulte Drops the Hammer

Alpha Warrior and Josh Reid had to actively look for things to be sad about this week and could not find any. Yesterday and today the White House went full blown Q in public for the first time. The "Q means Quantum" post hid a special character at line 48, which decodes to Q drop 48 about Q clearance and the Department of Energy. The fake Always Trust 47 post landed at 14:25 Eastern, which decodes to Q drop 1425 reading "given we have now undeniably on purpose verified ourselves to be an inside source." Then the War CTO posted at 9:18 matching Q drop 918 about coincidences becoming mathematically impossible. The guys break down every contextual reference frame in order.
Pete Hegseth confirmed the first successful Golden Dome test using directed energy and the DDAD system to defeat drones and cruise missiles autonomously. Bill Pulte walks into his first day as acting DNI and fires more than fifty career intelligence officials, sending Andy McCabe into a televised meltdown.
Plus Trump's new Air Force One with Q clearance comms, John Solomon and Devin Nunes both quietly moved to ODNI, MK Ultra hearings Tuesday, the Hillary Clinton planes on the tarmac admission, and the Great American State Fair kicking off America's 250th tomorrow.

Geopolitics with Ghost Ep. 116: IAEA Dispute, JNS Summit & Colombia's El Tigre - 6/23/26

Ghost opens episode 116 with Trump's latest gaggle confirming the Hormuz naval blockade is history, US farmers are getting paid to feed Iran, and critics like Ted Cruz need to be "educated" on the deal's terms. The IAEA inspections dispute gets the full treatment: Ghost breaks down how Iran only denied inspecting its bombed facilities, not all facilities, and why the media is deliberately misrepresenting the gap. Pakistan PM Sharif and Iran's president both confirm ballistic missiles were never on the table, period. Ghost then turns to the Jerusalem News Syndicate summit, walking through Mark Levin's unhinged speech, Netanyahu's "kill them first" Talmud citation calling the diaspora to fight back, and Naftali Bennett's bombshell admission that he was smuggling tens of thousands of Starlink receivers into Iran to support a regime change operation. Israel's Diaspora Affairs Minister declares the new enemy axis is Turkey, Syria, and Qatar, which are precisely Trump's three closest Middle East allies. Keir Starmer's resignation gets Ghost's theory that European elites pushed him out for being too cooperative with Trump. The episode closes with Colombia's razor-thin election of Trump-endorsed "El Tigre," his background as Alex Saab's lawyer, and Gustavo Petro's accusation that Israel hacked Colombian election servers.

The Daily Herold: 6/23/26 - Q Hype Examined, GART Trailer Drops & SAVES Database Killed

Jon Herold comes in Tuesday on a short show before heading to Deadwood and delivers two things worth staying for. First, a pointed and honest analysis of who is actually hyping the White House quantum computing posts as Q confirmation: Jon asked seven OG Anons who have no financial stake in being right, and all seven said it looks like a troll. The only people going all in are content creators trying to monetize. He asks why that is and lets the question sit. Then he plays the GART trailer, a mock news broadcast depicting a fictional future where Democrats flip the House in the midterms, Badlands Media gets indicted by a federal grand jury, and the community faces consequences for questioning elections. It is genuinely unsettling and clearly the setup for something bigger happening live in Deadwood this week. A federal judge also ordered Trump's SAVES voter verification database dismantled for violating federal privacy laws, Jon gives it a mixed read, and Rand Paul is subpoenaing Fauci again. No Daily Herold tomorrow. Whatever happens at GART, you will want a virtual ticket.

Badlands Daily: 6/23/26 - DEA Let Fentanyl Flow, Pulte Fires Away, Colombia Psyop

CannCon and Ghost open the final show before GART week in Deadwood with a Tuesday packed with stories that connect in ways most people are not seeing. An AP investigation with a named whistleblower reveals the DEA knowingly allowed 74,000 fentanyl pills to flood New Mexico between 2023 and 2025 to catch bigger fish while running the "one pill can kill" public campaign at the same time. Bill Pulte walks into ODNI and CNN immediately runs a smear piece while Letitia James attacks his qualifications despite simultaneously backing Jay Clayton, who has identical gaps in intelligence experience. Ghost and CannCon apply the white hat versus black hat framework and explain why neither applies: incentive-based leverage is how this operation actually works. A federal judge blocks the SAVE database cross-referencing Social Security and citizenship data, and CannCon asks the only relevant question: who issues your Social Security number and who determines citizenship status? In geopolitics, Ghost delivers a layered breakdown of Colombia's contested election, tracing the Alex Saab connection to De La Espriella, the Smartmatic globalist pivot of 2014, and why Hispanic neocon Republicans are backing a Maduro ally while publicly opposing Maduro. A viral JD Vance Qatar slight gets debunked with the full video.

Baseless Conspiracies Ep. 190: GATE Program Pt. 2, Q Returns and Remote Viewing

Jon Herold and Zak Paine open Episode 190 with a laugh at Zak's expense after a fake Q alert briefly fooled him live on air, followed by a genuine debate about what the White House Q meme actually signals and why the decoder community is not the same thing as the Q drops themselves.
Then the show picks up where Episode 189 left off on the GATE program, and this week the audience showed up with receipts. Jon walks through a GATE curriculum binder from Monterey that instructed children to keep its contents secret from their parents, a New Jersey parent group's alarmed breakdown of a GATE syllabus teaching clairvoyance and psychokinesis to fourth graders, and a firsthand viewer account from someone invited into GATE at age 12 only after a criminal incident and a court-ordered psych eval.
The episode closes with the Monroe Institute's Hemi-Sync Focus 10 tapes, the CIA's Project Stargate remote viewing program, Uri Geller's role in it, and Jon's argument that Stargate was never truly shut down but simply reclassified once perfected.

Culture of Change Ep. 152: World War II with Matt Ehert

Was Hitler a Christian nationalist hero or a black magician puppet of Satanic bankers? Matt Ehrett, filmmaker and author of "Black Sun Rising," joins Ashe to answer that question and then some. From the Thule Society's demon-summoning sessions at Wewelsburg Castle to Michael Aquino running Operation Phoenix in a US military uniform after being initiated into the Church of Satan, this episode goes places your high school history class definitely did not. Ehrett and Ashe also cover Canada's fake independence day, George Soros getting kicked out of China in 1989, and why the same ancient occult formula that built Nazism appears to be running again right now. Ashe watched the film twice. You probably will too.

Breaking Free of Psyops Ep. 11: The Dark Truth of Nikola Tesla - Part 1

Think Tesla was a persecuted genius who just wanted to give the world free energy? Matt Ehret would like a word. In Part 1 of this deep dive, he traces Tesla's closest friendship to George Sylvester Virek, Hitler's official Washington spokesman, Aleister Crowley disciple, and organizer of the 1939 Madison Square Garden Nazi rally. Along the way Ehret documents Tesla's enthusiastic support for mandatory eugenics, his belief that humans are soulless automatons with no free will, his claim to have received radio signals from Martians, and his tele-automaton demos that turned out to be a guy behind a curtain with a remote control. The Wardenclyffe Tower? Blown up by US Naval Intelligence for transmitting secrets to Germany. The beloved persecuted visionary story starts looking considerably less heroic from here.

Battle of the Sexes: Alphas Make Sandwiches & Y-Chromes Crossover Event - Part 2

The rematch is here, and the boys still haven't recovered from last time. Part 2 of the Battle of the Sexes crossover brings together CannCon and Christy, Cam and Jackie, Ashe in America, and Alpha Warrior for another round of trivia chaos during a special GART Week edition. Stakes are high: the losers serve drinks at Live DPH and rename their show. Expect heated debates over car battery voltages (12 vs. 12.6, a saga), pearl light bulbs that nobody has ever heard of, David Beckham's exact position on the pitch, and the correct way to describe rustling silk (it's "frou," apparently, and nobody was happy about it). The girls dominate the scoreboard, the boys overanalyze everything, and the rules get rewritten approximately every four minutes. A White House Q drop cameo and a reveal of the new OnlyLands intro round out the show. This one goes down to the wire, and someone's definitely getting stuck carrying drinks in Deadwood.

The Daily Herold: 6/22/26 - Election Report Delayed, White House Q Posts & Iran Tango

Jon Herold comes in Monday one day from Deadwood and GART, which means the show is lighter on prep and heavier on honesty. Reuters confirmed what Jon's source already told him: the White House has been sitting on the ODNI voting machine vulnerability report for months over concerns it could undermine voter confidence, and Jon asks the obvious question about what a limited hangout looks like if the report just says the machines need a software update. His source still says the election declass is on track for Wednesday. The White House and Department of War CTO both posted quantum computing content that the decoder community immediately lost its mind over, and Jon delivers a calm and mildly exasperated explanation of why a social media intern trolling is not a Q signal. Iran negotiations are in their now-familiar pattern: JD Vance says Iran agreed to UN nuclear inspectors and the US issued a 60-day oil waiver, Iran immediately denied making new commitments, and Jon sees both sides possibly contradicting each other on purpose to keep everyone confused. DHS is tying federal grants to election reforms including paper ballots and mandatory audits. The Biden audio tapes have been cleared for release. Keir Starmer resigned as UK prime minister. Colombia's president is claiming Israeli election software stole his election. Jon is not packed yet.
