On this episode of The Daily Herold, Jon Herold kicks things off with an in-depth segment featuring Ghost of Patrick Henry to unpack the geopolitical power plays redefining the Middle East. From Trump’s surprising snub of Israel and the sidelining of Netanyahu, to renewed talks with Iran and a potentially historic Saudi nuclear deal, the duo digs deep into the motives and strategies behind Trump’s emerging peace-through-strength doctrine. Ghost connects the dots on Jared Kushner’s quiet return, Ron Dermer’s desperation visit to D.C., and why a Trump-Putin handshake in Riyadh could flip the entire global narrative.

Back on the homefront, Jon recaps the shakeup at DOJ, where Judge Jeanine Pirro replaces Ed Martin as interim U.S. Attorney for D.C., a move likely designed to expose more RINO obstruction in the Senate. Meanwhile, Martin slides into a powerful new triple-threat role leading pardons, investigating government weaponization, and serving as Associate Deputy AG.

The episode also takes aim at James O’Keefe’s overhyped Epstein “exposé,” calling out the clickbait tactics and flimsy accusations against Pam Bondi as a reckless distraction. Jon defends Dr. Casey Means, Trump’s pick for Surgeon General, applauding her credentials as a fearless disruptor and dismantling the absurd arguments about her inactive license.

Rounding out the show are sharp takes on Jasmine Crockett’s projection-fueled rant, Letitia James’ federal probe, the firing of FEMA’s acting director, and a liberal meltdown over overpriced tacos. Herold weaves it all together with narrative warfare analysis and a reminder that chaos is just the prelude to clarity.
