Devolution Power Hour Ep. 469 - LIVE from GART 12 in Deadwood

Jon Herold, Chris Paul, and Burning Bright broadcast live and freezing from a deck in Deadwood, South Dakota for GART weekend, and somehow still manage to get into the substance. Trump's truth post calling out the American energy cartel gets a full breakdown, with Burning Bright connecting it back to January's oil executive dinner and floating a theory that Trump may be laying groundwork for an actual DOJ investigation into price manipulation. The guys dig into Trump's pattern of tying must pass legislation, this week a housing bill, to the Save America Act, arguing it is a deliberate sabotage operation rather than incompetence. They explore the irony of sanctuary states suddenly discovering a love for states rights now that the federal government has an America First president, and whether Trump is provoking governors like Newsom into a fight he wants. Anna Paulina Luna's failed declassification task force and her recent public incident get a thorough takedown, with the hosts making the case that believing she holds real plan-critical information is itself a sign of misunderstanding what the plan actually is. The reflecting pool saga, a buried no-bid contract critique, and the Ronald McDonald activation code meme round out a chaotic but substantive live show.
