Badlands Daily: May 13, 2025 – Trump’s Refugee Curveball, ICE Blockades, and the Big Beautiful Bill

In this electric episode of Badlands Daily, CannCon and Ashe in America unpack a tidal wave of political, economic, and cultural firestorms. Leading the charge is Trump’s controversial refugee policy shift, granting sanctuary to persecuted white South African farmers. The hosts dive into the MSM and NGO meltdowns over the decision, with Al Sharpton and Episcopal charities losing their minds over the idea of refugee status being extended to anyone who isn’t part of the globalist agenda.

Next up: the weekend’s chaos at a New Jersey ICE facility, where leftist clergy and NGO activists formed a human blockade, allegedly preventing emergency vehicles from entering. Ashe and CannCon expose the hypocrisy of selective enforcement and draw scathing comparisons to J6 prosecutions.

The show also breaks down the staggering April spike in U.S. customs revenue, $16.3 billion, proving Trump’s tariff policies are working. They then dissect the debut of the “Big Beautiful Bill,” with wins like work requirements for Medicaid, tax-free tips, and MAGA savings accounts for kids, but warn it lacks meaningful spending cuts. Senator Ron Johnson’s critique becomes a jumping-off point for a broader discussion on runaway federal debt, the failure of Congress, and Mike Johnson’s disappointing leadership.

With a mix of legal insight, biting sarcasm, and offbeat humor, including commentary on zombie shows, AI security concerns over Qatar’s luxury jet gift, and Justice Sotomayor’s outrageous ABA comments, this episode is a full-spectrum takedown of regime narratives and a celebration of the political awakening in real time.
