Summary
Jon Herold opens a quiet Monday by connecting the newly declassified China election documents to older intelligence community history, walking through 2016 era presidential daily briefings on Russia to argue the same pattern of suppression and fabrication runs through every major hoax of the Trump era. He digs into a batch of Trump Truth Social posts, including a firm defense of Netanyahu against arrest threats from New York's mayor, a warning to Iran over American soldier deaths, and pressure on Canada over wildfire smoke. There is also a rundown of the newly activated Alien Terrorist Removal Court, a State Department report on decades of Cuban subversion, and a quick detour into a viral Taco Bell food safety scare. Sponsor reads, some lighthearted chat banter, and a preview of tonight's Baseless Conspiracies round out a lighter Monday show.
