In this explosive installment of the Badlands Book Club, CannCon and Ashe in America tackle Chapters 6 & 7 of Government Gangsters by Kash Patel, two of the most shocking and revealing chapters yet. From the weaponization of the FBI against Trump to the inner workings of the Russiagate cover-up, they lay out the corruption that poisoned America’s most powerful institutions. Ashe and CannCon break down how the Nunes memo landed like a bombshell, exposing the FBI’s coordinated campaign of lies, and how Adam Schiff and friends responded with media smears, personal attacks, and targeted disinformation.
They also dive deep into the infamous Mar-a-Lago raid, unpacking how the same Deep State players from Russiagate resurfaced to protect their secrets and bury the truth. The crew explores how declassified documents were buried, how the raid was used to seize the Crossfire Hurricane files, and why all roads lead back to the Obama-era intelligence infrastructure. With powerful sidebars on election strategy, midterm timing, and the constitutional authority of the presidency, Ashe and CannCon connect Patel’s revelations to the bigger picture: how this all ends, and why the American people must win.
Part history lesson, part strategy session, this episode makes one thing clear: we’re not just reading a book, we’re watching a regime collapse in real time.
