The Daily Herold: July 30, 2025 – Eggleston’s Timing, Burn Bags, and the Clinton Thumb Drives

In this episode of The Daily Herold, Jon Herold uncovers a damning timeline involving Obama White House Counsel Neil Eggleston and two 2016 FBI meetings, each immediately followed by major developments in the Russia collusion hoax. Jon walks through the chain of events that suggest FBI and DOJ coordination with media outlets via Fusion GPS and Christopher Steele, all while Clinton’s thumb drives sat unexamined under the guise of executive privilege. He connects those meetings to the infamous Yahoo News article and the Carter Page FISA warrant, raising questions about narrative warfare.

Other highlights include Trump’s warning to India over tariffs, Powell’s interest rate expectations, Ghislaine Maxwell’s offer to testify in exchange for clemency, and a new Senate letter urging the FBI to review Clinton-era email evidence. Jon also dismantles a media story about “burn bags” at the FBI, arguing it’s cover for the real method of document recovery. With sharp commentary and extensive receipts, this dig-heavy episode explores the RICO threads tying together 2016’s buried scandals and today’s unraveling narratives.
