Badlands Daily: September 17, 2025 – FBI’s Narrative Cracks, Trump’s Strategy, and Kirk’s Legacy

CannCon and Ashe in America dig into the latest twists following Charlie Kirk’s assassination, spotlighting FBI inconsistencies, media spin, and the unanswered questions swirling around Tyler Robinson’s alleged confession. They analyze Trump’s careful framing of the tragedy, his refusal to be baited into overreaction, and how his moves on trade, immigration, and foreign policy fit into a larger strategic arc. The hosts also highlight Kirk’s enduring legacy, pushing back against attempts to hijack his movement and questioning fundraising efforts in the wake of his death.

Beyond the assassination, the show touches on Biden’s political stumbles, global power plays involving Israel and Qatar, and the information war driving division in America. With sharp skepticism and heartfelt reflection, CannCon and Ashe remind listeners to stay focused on principle, discern psyops from truth, and honor Kirk’s mission by refusing to be manipulated.
