The Daily Herold October 8, 2025: Government Shutdown, Gold Surge, and Comey’s Day in Court

Jon Herold’s midweek show mixes sharp political commentary with humor as he covers the ongoing government shutdown, gold’s record-breaking climb past $4,000, and James Comey’s much-anticipated arraignment. He questions whether the shutdown even matters when nearly no one feels its effects, while calling out Congress for refusing to pass single-item funding bills. Jon highlights Trump’s new endorsements, his deployment of National Guard units, and a declassified 1963 Robert F. Kennedy letter outlining presidential authority to use the militia, connecting it all to the Insurrection Act debate.

He digs into Kash Patel’s FBI reforms, Biden’s defeat in the offshore drilling case, and the Senate Republicans’ “nuclear option” confirming 107 Trump nominees. With wit, perspective, and his signature unfiltered delivery, Jon turns the day’s biggest stories into smart, engaging analysis.
