Badlands Daily: May 30, 2025 – Debate Drama, Data Drops, and the Fall of the Fact-Checkers

In this fast-paced May 30 edition of Badlands Daily, CannCon and Chris Paul dig into the growing panic in establishment media as Trump agrees to debate Biden, with one major condition: no teleprompters. They explore how this single stipulation is triggering a meltdown across networks and pundits who fear what a live, unscripted face-off might reveal.

The hosts unpack the media’s desperate defense of Biden’s declining cognition, including the latest New York Times spin and Jake Tapper’s awkward fact-check fail. They also examine the Left’s escalating war on “disinformation,” spotlighting a bizarrely timed fact-check targeting CannCon himself and a crumbling narrative around Project 2025.

Shifting gears, Chris and CannCon analyze a cascade of strategic data drops, declassified FBI notes, DOJ inconsistencies, and intel breadcrumbs hinting at bigger revelations to come. From renewed Epstein interest and pipe bomber questions to Trump’s unapologetic messaging on tariffs, TikTok, and crypto, this episode reveals a regime scrambling to contain a flood they can no longer control.

With their signature blend of mockery, receipts, and insight, the duo reminds listeners: narrative dominance is collapsing, and the truth is winning the long game.
