Jon Herold, fresh off a haircut and a Vikings win, debuts a new AI powered database project built with help from Chris Paul that tracks and scores political predictions made by dozens of accounts in the truth community since Trump's inauguration, revealing wildly high miss rates for the loudest "cheerleader" and "doomer" voices currently attacking Badlands. He walks through a new US China trade truce covering tariff cuts on 60 billion dollars in goods, Florida's AG seeking an injunction against OpenAI's development, and FBI Deputy Director Andrew Bailey's resignation, which Jon connects to a pattern of possible election related staffing shakeups. Other topics include a Trump Truth Social jab at Bill Maher, newly declassified Fauci diary entries on aerosolized Ebola research, the one year anniversary of Antifa's domestic terror designation, and the Senate's light pre midterm legislative agenda. Sponsor reads, some Twitter drama fallout, and a lively chat session round out a dense Monday show.
