Jon Herold spends this episode breaking down Paul Sperry's new investigative report suggesting that several of Trump's own appointees, including Barr, Durham, Pompeo, Bolton, and Haspel, may have helped shield or bury evidence that undermined the Obama-era intelligence assessment at the heart of Russiagate. Jon walks through the declassified documents, whistleblower claims, and House Intel findings that indicate the ICA relied on weak, misleading, or fabricated intelligence, and he highlights Derek Harvey's firsthand account of being blocked by CIA leadership during the review process. He questions Durham's decision to suppress a devastating 44-page report before the 2020 election, only for that material to go unused in Durham's final findings, and explores what this means for long-held assumptions about “white hats” inside the system. Jon also analyzes Trump's new Monroe Doctrine anniversary proclamation, digs into chat discussion, and reflects on how confirmation bias, hopium, and black-pilling affect the truth community's ability to navigate the ongoing information war.

Jon Herold breaks down a busy news day, starting with Trump's rapid-fire posts and his headline-grabbing claim that tariffs may soon eliminate the income tax. He examines the upcoming Supreme Court ruling on Trump's tariff authority and what the decision could signal. Jon then digs into the controversy over a second strike on a Venezuelan drug-smuggling boat, questioning combatant status, media framing, and how the story could be weaponized politically. He also tackles Emerald Robinson's expanding thread on Dominion, Smartmatic, and Liberty Vote, pointing out inconsistencies and the intelligence-community fingerprints that make the narrative tough to trust. The episode wraps with updates on DOJ wiretapping probes, Kristi Noem's call for a travel ban, RFK Jr.'s vaccine review panel, and the ongoing fight over SNAP compliance in blue states.

Jon Herold kicks off the December 1 Daily Herold with post-Thanksgiving catch-up before diving straight into the drip-drip chaos surrounding Emerald Robinson's ongoing claims about election interference and the Three Musketeers story. He walks through the logical gaps, the lack of sourcing, the contradictions about 2016, and why he believes the narrative ultimately works to delegitimize Trump rather than expose wrongdoing. From there Jon broadens the lens to the wider information war, calling out media hit pieces like the New York Times' attempted takedown of David Sacks, the parallels to attacks against Badlands, and how irregular warfare operates by generating false conflicts and weaponized narratives. He checks in on the lack of new federal documents, DoD updates, Doge's missing Friday posts, and Trump's latest Truth Social messages about Syria, the Sedition 6, and Mark Twain. Later he examines peace-deal rumors around Ukraine, the legal battle over Alina Habba's appointment, and key geopolitical shifts including Venezuelan tensions and Biden-era foreign policy failures. Jon closes with reflections on Bitcoin as energy-based currency, the Flynn debate, and even college-football coaching chaos, all tied back to the larger fight over information, legitimacy, and narrative control.

Jon Herold returns from Thanksgiving with a light news day but plenty of sharp commentary as he recaps hosting family, cooking with the ChefIQ, and catching up on Stranger Things before diving into Trump's fiery Thanksgiving message—complete with Trump's unapologetic takedown of Ilhan Omar, Tim Walz, mass immigration, and the costs of supporting millions of non-citizens. Jon highlights Trump's vow to permanently pause migration from third-world countries, eliminate benefits for non-citizens, and potentially end income tax altogether. He then turns to Ukraine, covering the major resignation of Zelensky's top aide and peace negotiator following an anti-corruption raid, questioning how corruption could possibly be “cleaned up” when every associate around Zelensky keeps falling. Jon digs back into the Emerald Robinson controversy, calling parts of the narrative contradictory and illogical, and discusses why certain election-fraud claims feel like deliberate misdirection. He closes with audience Q&A on Ratcliffe, devolution, irregular warfare, narrative control, silver prices, family updates, and why Trump's critics underestimate him at their own peril, before signing off for family photos and raiding Ghost's show.

Jon Herold hosts a loose, funny, and surprisingly packed pre-Thanksgiving episode as he checks in with Badlanders before heading to his family gathering. After joking about lunch, fasting, and hosting Thanksgiving for the first time, Jon reviews Trump's Thanksgiving proclamations, the hilarious turkey-pardon clip, and the sudden dismissal of the long-running Georgia RICO case, highlighting how no prosecutor wanted to touch Fani Willis' mess. He reacts to updates on DOGE, Trump's New York Times rant, and the “ToPublican” branding joke before diving back into Emerald Robinson's Venezuela thread, questioning its logic, missing evidence, and convenient narrative turns. Jon debates whistleblower timelines, catamarans, storm drama, and Trump supposedly being uninformed about election fraud, pushing back on the story's framing while engaging live chat humor about sharks, boats, the ocean, and hot tubs. He then covers the Witkoff–Ushakov peace-call transcript, Lindsey Halligan's appointment issue, Democrats facing FBI review for their “illegal orders” video, Comer's doubts about the Epstein report, and the political fallout surrounding election legitimacy. Jon closes by previewing Power Hour and wishing everyone a happy Thanksgiving.

Jon Herold unpacks a wide-ranging and often hilarious news day, starting with his newly minted title as the “world's foremost Q promoter” after a New York Times piece took his comments wildly out of context. He breaks down the Epstein-file discourse, clarifies what he actually said, and roasts Will Sommer while embracing the absurdity of becoming media-designated “Q adjacent.” Jon then covers mixed signals surrounding the supposed shutdown and surprise “revival” of DOGE, Trump pardoning a turkey, stock market chatter, and reports that Ukraine has agreed to the core terms of a U.S.-brokered peace deal. He reacts to snowfall at home, Thanksgiving week family time, and the DOJ's election-related narratives before diving into Emerald Robinson's sprawling 2024 “steal prevention” thread, which he finds intriguing but deeply suspicious. From Musk rumors to Smartmatic whistleblowers to cyber ops, Jon raises red flags while analyzing what doesn't add up. Additional topics include Trump's Genesis Mission executive order on AI, the slowing housing market, Fed speculation, terror-designation reviews, Mark Kelly's UCMJ scrutiny, a mysterious new DoD content-blocking directive, Speaker Johnson's Nick Fuentes comments, and the surreal “everyone's alive in Bismarck” running gag.         

Jon Herold breaks down a whirlwind news day as he opens with the bombshell dismissal of the James Comey and Letitia James indictments, questioning the legality of Lindsey Halligan's appointment and what the ruling means for future challenges. From there he dives into the unexpected shutdown of DOGE, unpacking the official explanations, the community's reactions, and whether the move signals bureaucratic failure or a deliberate shifting of strategy. Jon reacts to Trump's surprise call with President Xi, MTG's resignation letter, Thomas Massie and General Flynn publicly rejecting “4D and 5D chess,” and the growing sense that certain actors are intentionally trying to demoralize the “trust the plan” crowd. He navigates the internal fractures within MAGA, foreign accounts steering the America First narrative, evolving Q skepticism, and the increasingly obvious role of social media ops amplifying division. With commentary on Trump's tariff post, sports takes, election fraud urgency, Bitcoin momentum, and Nick Fuentes being elevated by establishment voices, Jon ties together a chaotic landscape where psyops, perception, and narrative warfare matter as much as the headlines themselves.

November 24, 2025 | Season 7 | Episode 43Markets can rally on headlines and still slide by the close, and this holiday-shortened week is a masterclass in that tension. We open with the travel surge and a shaky tape, then dig into why NVIDIA's stellar results sparked selling, what “violently flat” really signals, and how investor positioning, year-end incentives, and shifting rate expectations can outweigh even the best earnings day. If you've been wondering why AI euphoria keeps colliding with red screens, you're not alone.We also bring a different compass to the chaos: Warren Buffett's nonfinancial playbook. Kindness, integrity, patience, and independent thinking aren't just virtues—they're risk tools. We translate those principles into practical investing habits: making a virtue of inaction when noise is loud, protecting reputation through process, and keeping enough liquidity to avoid being “dependent on the kindness of strangers.” That mindset frames how to navigate volatile sessions without chasing every tick.From there, we widen the lens beyond the Fed to the Bank of Japan, explaining how years of ultra-low Japanese rates powered global carry trades and why even a modest shift can ripple through tech, private equity, and risk assets worldwide. We track sector and single-name movers, from Alphabet's Gemini momentum to healthcare rotation, and spotlight where selective value may be hiding: European equities still early in a potential rerating, Disney's bold cruise strategy aimed at margin-rich experiences, and Bristol Myers' blend of low multiple, sturdy dividend yield, and evolving product mix.If you want a grounded read on liquidity, sentiment, and where patience can still pay, this conversation is your roadmap.

Jon Herold delivers a lively, chaotic Friday episode filled with humor, irritation, geopolitical analysis, and a whole lot of crowd banter. He opens with stalled Twitter feeds, a crashing Bitcoin market he's trying to time on a budget, and the nonstop meltdowns over Trump and Democrats “implying” coups and executions without ever technically calling for them. Jon rips into the hysteria on both sides, arguing that everyone is overreacting and turning politics into one giant performance. He then dives into the massive 28-point Ukraine peace plan, breaking down sovereignty questions, NATO limits, territorial recognition, frozen assets, reconstruction funds, and the U.S.–Russia working group Trump would personally head as part of the “Peace Council.” Between sponsor reads, chat wars, jokes about boner-pill bots, flat earthers, Badlands enemies, soda vs. pop vs. supper debates, and rants about corruption, sanctions, executive orders, and election chaos, Jon weaves together a dense but hilarious walkthrough of the day's biggest stories. He closes by previewing a heated OnlyLands debate about whether Democrats' latest military messaging was actually sedition or just more political theater.

Jon Herold unravels a wild day of political absurdity, starting with a viral video of Democratic lawmakers urging the military and intelligence community to refuse “unlawful orders,” sparking Trump's explosive response and a nationwide sedition debate. Jon dissects the intent, the overreactions on both sides, and how Democrats walked straight into the trap they thought they were setting. He breaks down Chris Murphy's dramatic meltdown, the media's framing games, and why both sides are locked in a performative feedback loop Jon bluntly labels a “circle jerk.” From speculation about military dynamics and ICE operations to the implications for immigration policy, Jon questions what this messaging is really preparing the public for. He also dives into the latest true socials, Dick Cheney's funeral decodes, Ukraine peace negotiations, Chris Paul's “fake elections” thesis, and the puzzling stall in long-expected declassification releases. With humor, frustration, philosophical side quests, and live chat chaos, Jon guides listeners through a slow but deeply bizarre news day.

Jon Herold unpacks a chaotic news cycle with equal parts analysis, frustration, and humor as he dives into the latest Epstein bill drama, Trump's remarks, congressional backroom deals, and why the media is spinning the vote as a humiliation. He questions whether the trillion-dollar Saudi commitments have produced any real-world investment yet, breaks down Trump's messaging on the MBS meeting, and highlights the White House's carefully crafted optics. Jon dissects Clay Higgins' lone “no” vote, MTG's claims about Plaskett's Epstein-era texts, and the bipartisan maneuvering that kept multiple censure resolutions off the table. He explores the psyop landscape, bots, infiltrators, influencers, suppression, and attempts to fracture Trump's base under the guise of “America First.” Jon also confronts the Comey indictment meltdown as DOJ attorneys admit the grand jury never saw the operative indictment, raising the possibility of dismissal on a procedural failure. With side tangents on scissoring, shrooms, Badlanders meetups, Twitter chaos, dental trauma, and the Gong Show energy of modern politics, Jon delivers a dense, irreverent, and revealing walk through Clown World's latest chapter.

Jon Herold kicks off a packed episode reacting in real time to President Trump's historic White House meeting with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, including Saudi Arabia's announcement that its U.S. investments will surge from $600 billion to $1 trillion. Jon breaks down the geopolitical significance, Trump's banter with MBS, and why Ghost is probably passed out from excitement. From there he dives into the Cloudflare outage that briefly broke half the internet, the Bitcoin dip, and Trump's comments on firing Jerome Powell, paired with Jon's sharp concerns about who is actually holding Trump back. The Epstein files take center stage as Trump unloads on ABC, naming names like Larry Summers, Reid Hoffman, Andrew Weissmann, and calling the whole thing a “Democrat hoax” designed to bury his $21 trillion economic announcement. Jon tracks Speaker Johnson's excuses, House floor drama, and why the media keeps redirecting public attention away from real issues like housing, private equity, and the collapse of the American dream. With humor, blackmail jokes, existential dread, and a chiropractic outro, Jon guides listeners through a day of narrative warfare, congressional chaos, and economic reality checks.

Jon Herold kicks off a Monday-ish Monday with a mix of exhaustion, sharp analysis, and classic Herold humor as he unpacks a chaotic week of political drama, narrative battles, and strange internet behavior. From the MTG–Trump feud to the endless Epstein “file” frenzy, Jon breaks down why so many online fights feel manufactured and how bad-faith actors, bots included, are warping the truth-seeking ecosystem. He dives into Trump's reversed stance on releasing Epstein records, new DOJ maneuvers, the curious case of SDNY's sudden involvement, and the larger distraction campaign drowning out Trump's real accomplishments. Jon also takes aim at Media Matters hit pieces, Real Clear Politics shoutouts, Biden's sluggish executive action pace, DOJ inconsistencies, and the bizarre rise of Pentagon psyop podcasts. Mixing doomer self-deprecation with grounded realism, Jon makes a compelling case that social media outrage is synthetic, justice comes slowly, and America is still fighting through information fog as Trump continues to “flood the zone.”

November 17, 2025 | Season 7 | Episode 42Markets don't wait for your plan to catch up. We open with a clear framework for year-end positioning that blends mindset with mechanics—how identity-based habits and focus can keep you from selling lows, chasing highs, or ignoring life changes that matter more than headlines. From there, we map the macro forces likely to shape returns over the next few quarters and what to do about them.China's deflation is no longer a blip; it's a loop. With broad price declines, soft wages, and pressure on multinationals, the ripple effects are reaching U.S. margins and global pricing power. We break down why zombie firms appear when prices fall faster than costs and what a real Chinese stimulus—monetary or fiscal—would mean for cyclicals, luxury, autos, and U.S. brands tied to Chinese demand.On the home front, the AI buildout is massive, but so is the debt financing it. We connect the dots between data-center capex, falling hardware costs over time, and the unforgiving math of credit. Equity investors can spread bets; bond investors cannot. With credit default swaps flashing caution and the Fed signaling less certainty on cuts, balance sheets, cash generation, and pricing power move to the top of the checklist. We share practical steps: tiered cash buffers, laddered fixed income, disciplined rebalancing, and a focus on businesses that earn their keep at higher discount rates.We also zoom out to your “life portfolio,” including the rise of concierge medicine. It won't guarantee longevity, but it can improve access and coordination—now with limited HSA support. The real lesson is integration: healthcare, liquidity, and goals belong in the same plan as your asset allocation. Finish with a punch list for 2026: update goals, retest risk tolerance, stress test for higher-for-longer rates and China-driven disinflation, and trim exposures that only work if everything goes right.If this helped sharpen your playbook, subscribe, share with a friend who's planning year-end moves, and leave a quick review with one takeaway you're acting on next.** For informational and educational purposes only, not intended as investment advice.

Jon Herold dives straight into the chaos of the day, breaking down the intensifying Epstein narrative, Trump's pointed Truth Social posts, and the coordinated political theater surrounding the shutdown. Jon exposes how Democrats and Uniparty Republicans are weaponizing the Epstein “hoax” for distraction, while Trump signals a new DOJ/FBI investigation into Epstein's real associates. He unpacks the mythmaking around the Epstein files, the traps being set, and why blind belief helps no one. From mortgage reforms and portable loans to SNAP reapplications and DOJ corruption, Jon tackles the mechanics of how government games the system, and why Americans must stay unplacatable. He highlights new Grassley documents revealing FBI/DOJ cover-ups for Clinton and the DNC, skewering Congress for slipping self-enrichment into the shutdown bill. With humor, honesty, and friction, Jon confronts black-pilling, normie narratives, and emotional reactions, urging listeners to stay focused, demand proof, and reject political comfort food.

In this fiery episode of The Daily Herold, Jon Herold opens up about the growing tension inside the MAGA movement, the pitfalls of blind trust, and why honest criticism is essential, not betrayal. From Trump's missteps to the Senate's shocking self-enrichment scheme, Jon challenges the audience to stop waiting for someone else to fix the country and start taking real local action. He breaks down the myth of the “normie echo chamber,” frustrations with government inertia, and the danger of excusing bad behavior from elected officials. The conversation hits everything from the Antifa terrorist designation to the shutdown's empty promises, the election system, homeschooling, bad narratives, and how community organizing may be the key to real change. Blunt, humorous, and raw, Jon delivers a call to action: stop worshiping politicians, embrace friction, get involved, and help shape America's future from the ground up.

Fresh off the road from Cocoa Beach, Jon Herold returns to The Daily Herold with stories from GART 10, a 29-hour road trip, and a fiery rundown of the week's chaos. He unpacks the latest government shutdown bill, exposing how the Senate quietly inserted a clause to shield itself from subpoenas and even backdate lawsuits for profit. From SNAP benefits to anti-communism week, Jon covers it all with sharp humor and righteous frustration. The episode then shifts to Trump's controversial H1B visa comments, sparking a spirited breakdown of America First principles, global labor, and media manipulation. Featuring clips from Kristi Noem and Steve Bannon, Jon dissects how Trump's rhetoric tests loyalty and ignites critical debate. The show closes with updates on the new Epstein emails, the Clinton Foundation's corruption trail, and fresh cracks in Israel's official October 7 narrative. Funny, insightful, and unapologetically real, Jon reminds listeners why tuning out the noise can bring the clearest truth.

Jon Herold records a special preflight edition of The Daily Herold before heading to Cocoa Beach for GART 10, taking aim at the latest election “results” and the narratives being spun around them. From a Democratic sweep in New York, New Jersey, and Virginia to Vivek Ramaswamy's tone-deaf postmortem on GOP strategy, Jon argues that none of it matters in a rigged system. He breaks down how the regime fabricates consensus, manipulates optics, and uses false rebukes of Trump to shape public perception before 2026. The conversation turns to Trump's Truth Social posts calling for the end of the filibuster and warning that the Supreme Court's tariff ruling is “life or death” for the nation. Jon challenges those ideas head-on, questioning why Trump would rely on an illegitimate Senate or SCOTUS when he already holds the constitutional power to act. From info-war fatigue to Trump's “psyop loops,” Jon delivers a raw and honest reflection on faith, frustration, and the fight for reality in a country still asleep at the wheel.

Jon Herold kicks off Election Day on The Daily Herold with off-cycle madness, bomb threats, and ballot fraud in New York, where Trump's shocking endorsement of Andrew Cuomo has everyone asking, “What timeline are we in?” Jon unpacks Trump's latest Truth Social posts calling for the end of the filibuster, questioning whether elected officials can really fix a system built to fail. He dissects the growing chaos around the government shutdown, SNAP benefits, and the mysterious lull in executive orders, wondering if “something else” is happening behind the scenes. Then the show takes a hard pivot into breaking news on the Comey case, newly released handwritten notes, burn bag discoveries, and explosive evidence linking Comey, Brennan, and Clinton's 2016 conspiracy. With fiery rants about faith, plans, and personal accountability, Jon delivers his trademark mix of humor, skepticism, and conviction. Between new sponsors, chat banter, and soft disclosure shoutouts, it's a perfect snapshot of Herold in motion, equal parts chaos, clarity, and comedy.

Jon Herold kicks off the week with a jam-packed Daily Herold filled with laughs, leaks, and world-shaking headlines. As the government shutdown breaks records, Jon covers Trump's latest 60 Minutes interview, where the President drops bombshells about stolen elections, Abraham Accords, and underground nuclear testing by China and Russia. From SNAP fraud crackdowns and DOJ battles in Georgia to new Pentagon media restrictions and Syria's surprise visit to the White House, this episode runs the full geopolitical gauntlet with Jon's signature mix of wit and analysis. But it's not all world affairs, amid talk of trade wars and crypto pardons, the chat helps co-found “Bad Floors,” the newest Badlands business venture (and inside joke gone viral). With humor, honesty, and a side of Soft Disclosure, Jon proves once again why The Daily Herold is must-listen Badlands media.

November 3, 2025 Season 7 | Episode 41Markets don't break on the loud day; they weaken quietly while everything still looks fine. We open with a clear view of the pressure points shaping returns right now: a grinding government shutdown, a Supreme Court showdown over tariff power, and a Fed that cut rates but refuses to pre-commit on December. Those crosscurrents jolted the curve, with front-end yields jumping as cut odds fell and the 10‑year backing up, resetting how investors should think about duration, equity risk, and liquidity.From there, we zoom out to learn from real-world disasters. Historian Edward Tenner's framework—pre‑peak complacency, post‑event overcorrection—maps eerily well to investing. The Hindenburg's smoking lounge, the Titanic's lifeboat fix causing the SS Eastland capsize, Tenerife's time pressure rules, and post‑1993 elevator lockouts all show how safety drifts when conditions feel calm and how good intentions can magnify harm. We use that lens to interrogate the Magnificent Seven's dominance. Yes, today's megacaps trade at lower premiums than the Nifty Fifty did and are growing faster, but index mechanics matter: when passive inflows dwarf active, every dollar passively poured into the S&P 500 mechanically bids the same seven names. A true unwind likely needs two hits at once—slower megacap growth and shrinking equity flows.We also tackle what's changing under the surface: AI's uneven impact on the labor market, strong aggregate earnings beats masking dispersion, and a surprising comeback for 60/40 portfolios as Treasuries finally pay investors to wait. On the single‑name front, Boeing's path from crisis toward credibility highlights how leadership, culture, and execution can rebuild an investment case, with free cash flow and certification milestones as the right markers.Finally, we lift the hood on the bond market's quiet power. Treasury issuance choices can move long rates without a single Fed headline—tilting toward bills lowers term supply and can compress the 10‑year—while increasing rollover risk. And a new buyer cohort is here: stablecoin issuers now own a meaningful slice of T‑bills, potentially tightening the front end as crypto demand grows. Put together, this is a field guide to concentration risk, policy shocks, and portfolio resilience. If you value clear thinking over hot takes, hit play, subscribe, and tell us: where do you see the hidden weak link today?** For informational and educational purposes only, not intended as investment advice.

Jon Herold closes out October with a sharp and entertaining Halloween edition of The Daily Herold. Between jokes about scary clown masks and government shutdowns, Jon breaks down Trump's fiery Truth Social post calling for the “nuclear option” to end the filibuster, and what that means for the ongoing shutdown showdown. He explores Trump's Asia tour victories, new trade deals, and a record-breaking government standoff while weaving in chat banter and audience insights. The episode shifts into deep analysis of the Arctic Frost investigation, where newly unearthed FBI documents reveal a 2020 “October Surprise” attempt to link Trump's campaign to gambling transactions, timed suspiciously alongside the Hunter Biden laptop cover-up. Jon connects the dots between election interference, the deep state's survival tactics, and the long game of Trump's agenda, all with his signature wit, candor, and community energy.

Jon Herold unpacks a historic week in global politics, starting with Trump's high-stakes G2 Summit with Xi Jinping in South Korea. From nuclear submarine deals and shipbuilding contracts to China's agreement to buy U.S. oil, gas, and soybeans, Jon connects the dots between trade, tariffs, and Trump's bold announcement to resume nuclear testing for the first time in 30 years. He highlights the geopolitical chess game behind Trump's “12 out of 10” meeting and the new U.S.–China energy partnership that could reshape global power. Back home, Jon digs into Chuck Grassley's bombshell revelations about “Operation Arctic Frost,” where the FBI subpoenaed over 400 Republicans and conservative organizations, exposing the DOJ's weaponized political targeting. Between live chat chaos, jokes about Fort Knox, and a few nuclear memes, Jon ties it all together with signature Badlands wit and insight, proving that in a world this explosive, sometimes you just have to laugh.

Jon Herold returns to The Daily Herold with his trademark mix of wit, chaos, and sharp analysis. He kicks things off promoting Shipwreck's big interview with Marjorie Taylor Greene before diving into Trump's Asia tour, the new $350 billion South Korea trade deal, and the Pentagon's kinetic strikes on narco-vessels. From there, Jon unpacks the expanding FBI “Arctic Frost” investigation targeting over 160 Trump allies, connects it to the ongoing RICO probes, and digs into Chuck Grassley's inquiry into globalist foundations funding the CCP. Between discussions of Tylenol lawsuits, Netanyahu's bombing campaign, and Obama's call for “new journalism,” Jon keeps the chat lively with hilarious tangents about COVID cruises, escaped Mississippi monkeys, and late-night chip rustling. Wrapping up with updates on Trump's accolades in South Korea and Shipwreck's primetime lineup, this episode proves that even in a “slow news day,” The Daily Herold is never boring...just dangerously funny.

Jon Herold kicks off The Daily Herold with his trademark humor and insight, recounting an 18-inning baseball marathon before diving into the day's political chaos. He covers the ongoing government shutdown, the SNAP funding fight, and Trump's Asia tour—including his high-energy arrival at a U.S. Navy base and new critical minerals deal with Japan. Jon breaks down the House Oversight Committee's explosive report on Biden's “autopen presidency,” exposing how aides allegedly used a signature machine to execute executive actions, some involving pardons, without Biden's approval. From there, he analyzes Trump's legal appeal in New York, Putin's new strategic alliance with Venezuela, and the controversy around FBI Director Kash Patel's use of a government jet. As always, Jon mixes sharp commentary, live chat banter, and comedy gold while keeping the Badlands community up to speed on the stories that matter most.

Jon Herold opens this Monday edition of The Daily Herold with reflections on truth, ego, and the phrase “you can't tell people the truth, you have to show them,” questioning whether it still applies in today's divided information war. From there, Jon digs into Trump's whirlwind Asia trip, his “Regulatory Relief” order, and the viral clip of him teasing a third term, echoing Bannon's remarks about public mandate and constitutional momentum. The episode rolls into a breakdown of the new federal grand jury impaneled in Florida, what Mike Davis, John Solomon, and others are saying about it, and whether it marks the next phase of the “RICO Grande” investigation. Between sharp analysis, chat banter, and pumpkin-carving humor, Jon keeps it real on topics from Argentina's Milei victory and TikTok trade deals to DeSantis's new Turning Point USA partnership. A mix of introspection, politics, and good-natured chaos, this episode proves that even in a slow news week, The Daily Herold never stops asking the right questions.

October 27, 2025 | Season 7 | Episode 40A record-chasing market collides with the busiest macro week of the quarter, and we break it all down with a clear playbook for investors. We start with the incentives you don't see: October fiscal year-ends and bonus locking that can drive sharp, end-of-month positioning. Then we weigh a likely Fed cut, what Powell's guidance implies for the path of rates, and how a softer inflation print is tilting sentiment across stocks, gold, and credit.To make better choices now, we rewind 100 years. The data is striking: technology slashed time spent on chores from dozens of hours a week to a fraction, reassigning that time to work, leisure, and child development. The lesson for AI is practical, not hype—breakthrough tools shift our attention from maintenance to leverage. We extend that thinking to health with surprising research on stair climbing for seniors: small bursts, big payoffs. The same principle powers good investing habits—systematic, repeatable moves that compound.From there, we zoom in on what's moving tape. Earnings breadth improved beyond the megacaps, with blue chips posting solid results and consensus EPS tracking near 9% growth. Semis bounce on tariff thaw talk, gold softens on risk appetite, and oil reacts to sanctions headlines. We take a sober look at valuations around 22x forward and what it means for risk management into Big Tech results from Microsoft, Meta, Alphabet, Amazon, and Apple.Most investors still overlook the big story: international markets leading the scoreboard.
