Badlands Daily: 6/11/26 - ActBlue CEO Pleads Fifth Again, Bolton Cooperation Confirmed

CannCon and Alpha Warrior bring the Thursday show with the ActBlue CEO finally in front of congress and doing exactly what everyone expected. Debra Wallace Jones pleads the Fifth on every single question, including how many foreign contributions ActBlue accepted, how much came from Russia, and whether the 38 million flagged donations her own board chairman acknowledged were fraudulent. CannCon explains the full scope of what the hearing is building toward: criminal charges, not just public theater, with laundering of taxpayer dollars through overseas venues back into US campaigns as the core of the eventual indictment. Alpha updates his Bolton cooperation theory after CannCon pushes back with the Petraeus and Berger comparison: Alpha argues the defining indicator is not the fine size but the timing of the plea, and six to nine months is absolute confirmation of cooperation because no one with resources pleads that fast without a deal. Trump signs the Secure America Act funding DHS through the end of his term, and Alpha's border patrol contacts say the danger level agents are operating under is higher than anything publicly reported. The Knicks pull off the biggest NBA Finals comeback in history, and Hakim Jeffries walks directly into a 1994 Madison Square Garden clip of Trump courtside with Marla after telling reporters Trump does not know who the Knicks are.
