The Daily Herold: October 3, 2025 - Shutdown Battles, FBI Corruption, and Trump’s Wartime Powers

Jon Herold pre-records this edition while heading out on a quick trip but still packs it full of sharp analysis. He opens with updates on the government shutdown, CNN’s spin on “enhanced Obamacare subsidies,” and Russ Vought’s latest moves targeting blue-state projects. Herold digs into fresh FBI whistleblower revelations on Biden’s Ukraine dealings, the quiet setup for a major corruption bombshell, and Barry Weiss’s surprising rise to CBS News.

He examines Kash Patel’s testimony on Antifa funding and the slippery slope of social media “clickbait” censorship before diving into the biggest story of the day, Trump formally declaring war on drug cartels as terrorist organizations. By framing cartel operations as acts of war, Trump asserts extraordinary wartime powers, opening the door to bold new legal and constitutional arguments. Herold connects the move to devolution theories, wartime precedent, and the broader battle against America’s enemies.
