In Episode 7 of OnlyLands, a lively lineup of Badlands Media hosts takes on the week’s most outrageous headlines, from Trump’s royal welcome in Saudi Arabia to Jake Tapper’s “Original Sin” book and the implosion of the Biden coverup narrative. The crew dissects Trump’s purple-carpeted entrance in Riyadh, reads the symbolism, and compares the treatment of Trump vs. Biden by MBS, complete with horses, fanfare, and “Enter Sandman” conspiracy theories.

The panel takes a hard turn into the culture war with a deep dive into James Lindsay and Seth Dillon’s “woke right” narrative. They rip into the op as a controlled opposition psyop designed to gatekeep MAGA thought and shield the regime from criticism. What starts as a rant on intellectual frauds turns into a brutal takedown of Babylon Bee hypocrisy, the Ron DeSantis simp brigade, and the rise of anti-questioning orthodoxy disguised as conservatism.

Also on the docket: South African farmer refugees, awkward Elon claps, Mandela effect rabbit holes, and the absolute demolition of Chuck Todd’s attempt to memory-hole Biden’s decline.

It’s conspiratorial, hilarious, and brutal, in other words, peak OnlyLands.
