The Daily Herold: February 5, 2025 - Gaza Gambit, CIA Purge & The USAID Freakout

Jon Herold breaks down another blockbuster day in the news, where the firehose of information just won’t let up. First, Trump’s unexpected Gaza proposal—is it a real estate masterstroke or a strategic shake-up meant to force the Arab world’s hand? The Saudi reaction is loud and clear, but what does it mean for the Abraham Accords and the broader multipolar shift?

Meanwhile, the CIA is now offering buyouts—Trump and John Ratcliffe are gutting the intelligence community from the inside out, and the deep state is not taking it well. And speaking of meltdowns, the Democrats’ public freakout over USAID’s demise is reaching new levels of ridiculousness, with Maxine Waters, Chuck Schumer, and others screaming into the void about “saving democracy” (read: their money laundering slush fund).

Also on deck: Bitcoin’s potential new role in the U.S. economy, Pam Bondi’s first day as Attorney General, and why Politico and other media outlets have been exposed as government-funded propaganda machines.

Buckle up—because the controlled demolition of the corrupt system is officially underway.
