Zak Paine, Adel Nero, and Frankie Val open Episode 116 with casual banter before turning to a wide-ranging and intense discussion on accountability, power, and corruption, beginning with the Clintons’ refusal to comply with congressional subpoenas and what that means for the legitimacy of oversight itself. The conversation expands into the massive fraud unfolding in Minnesota, including Somali-linked schemes, misuse of public funds, civil asset forfeiture, and ICE activity at the Minneapolis–St. Paul airport, tying local corruption to national consequences. From there, the hosts examine systemic rot within government institutions, questioning two-tier justice, political protection, and the failure to prosecute obvious criminal behavior. The episode also dives into the Federal Reserve, fiat currency, debt, silver market manipulation, and the broader implications of financial systems built on fraud, arguing that exposure without enforcement risks total public disillusionment. Throughout the discussion, the hosts emphasize that real reform requires consequences, not rhetoric, and warn that without decisive action, trust in institutions will continue to collapse.
Jon Herold is joined by Ashe in America for an in-depth breakdown of the Colorado appellate hearing in the Tina Peters case, with Ashe reporting directly from the courtroom and walking through what unfolded in real time. The discussion centers on the judges’ aggressive questioning of the state, particularly around jury misinstruction, the misdemeanor-versus-felony charging issue, and whether Peters was unlawfully sentenced for crimes the jury was never asked to consider. Ashe explains why the most damaging moments for the prosecution came not from the defense, but from the court itself, including concerns over due process violations, First Amendment implications, and sentencing that relied on uncharged conduct. The episode also explores what remedies are now on the table, from resentencing to a full retrial, how a presidential pardon factors into jurisdictional questions, and why this case has never truly been about election machines despite years of media framing. The conversation closes with analysis of what relief may realistically look like and why the appellate court’s posture signals serious trouble for the state’s case.
The January 15 White House briefing outlines the administration’s economic and national security priorities, beginning with claims that inflation has been defeated through tariffs, tax cuts, deregulation, and energy expansion, with officials highlighting falling gas prices, rising wages, record tax refunds, and improving housing affordability. The briefing details new actions involving Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, a forthcoming Davos address, and the rollout of the “Great Health Care Plan,” focused on prescription drug pricing, insurance transparency, and redirecting subsidies directly to Americans. During questions, officials address Supreme Court arguments on sex-based rights, enforcement of executive orders protecting women’s sports, and escalating tensions in Minnesota tied to ICE operations and state cooperation. The discussion expands to Venezuela, including meetings with opposition leaders, prisoner releases, energy agreements, and expectations of continued cooperation, as well as Iran, Greenland, sanctions, classified leaks, press responsibility, and the potential use of the Insurrection Act. The briefing concludes with pointed exchanges on media bias, law enforcement accountability, and U.S. geopolitical posture.

Jon Herold and Burning Bright spend Episode 423 dismantling the growing confusion around Venezuela, Iran, and what actually constitutes regime change versus narrative theater.

The hosts also examine domestic instability narratives, including Minnesota unrest, and how foreign and domestic pressure campaigns mirror one another.

Brad Zerbo and Zak Paine dive into a high-intensity episode of Altered State as the focus turns to Bill and Hillary Clinton refusing to comply with congressional subpoenas and what that defiance means for accountability, precedent, and the legitimacy of congressional power. The discussion unpacks the contrast between how figures like Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro were treated versus the apparent immunity extended to the Clintons, raising questions about equal justice under the law. From there, the episode expands into Epstein’s documented connections to the Clintons, unexplained deaths surrounding their inner circle, and why these issues are resurfacing now. The second half of the show examines massive fraud operations uncovered in Minnesota, particularly non-emergency medical transportation schemes tied to daycare, healthcare, and Medicaid reimbursement, alongside on-the-ground investigations and public confrontations.

The briefing concludes with media Q&A touching on global security, sanctions, and industrial expansion.
Tonight we step into the gray areas people are told not to look at.
We talk Freemasonry in Minnesota, 33-degree symbolism, and why certain patterns keep repeating in plain sight.
We separate the ridiculous conspiracies from the uncomfortable ones that actually hold up under scrutiny.
We also revisit Mary Magdalene—not as the caricature we were taught, but as a woman whose role may have been deliberately minimized, if not erased entirely.
And finally, I explain why I changed my voter registration to unaffiliated—and why walking away from party identity isn’t apathy, but clarity.
Lt Gen (Ret.) Steven L.
