Badlands Daily: 6/22/26 - Starmer Out, Schumer's Slip, Gallego Next to Fall

CannCon and Zak Paine open GART week with a Monday show full of political fireworks before Deadwood. Trump called it on Truth Social over the weekend and it happened: UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer resigns, becoming the seventh British leader in ten years. Zak connects Starmer's tenure to the Jimmy Savile prosecution he buried and the Pakistani rape gang cases he never brought. Colombia elects Trump-backed political outsider Abelardo de la Espriella in a razor-thin vote, and CannCon flags the remarkable connection: de la Espriella was the attorney for Alex Saab, the Maduro associate who briefed the Trump administration on Central American cartel corruption, making his election look like the Venezuela playbook in one more country. Chuck Schumer goes on MSNBC and inadvertently confirms 25 to 30 million people would come off the voter rolls under the SAVE America Act. Politico drops a hit piece on Ruben Gallego's PAC spending covering Disney trips, a St. Barts birthday, an au pair, and Super Bowl attendance with Eric Swalwell, and CannCon says something big is coming. Ilhan Omar's husband goes from a $30M net worth to negative $95,000 in one year. A federal judge clears the DOJ to hand Biden's audio tapes to the Heritage Foundation. And the Iran deal continues its on-again-off-again cycle as Trump threatens to take over the Strait of Hormuz entirely.
