The Daily Herold: August 5 – Grand Juries, Bribery, and the RICO Grande Showdown

In this fiery edition of The Daily Herold, Jon dives into a packed news cycle, spotlighting the DOJ’s opening of a grand jury investigation into Russiagate, following a criminal referral from Tulsi Gabbard, and explores the role Pam Bondi may play in expediting indictments. He questions how, or whether, the Mar-a-Lago raid ties into the broader conspiracy and highlights the need for public proof that connects the dots. Jon also breaks down the subpoenas issued to former AGs and DOJ officials in the Epstein investigation, ponders who’s missing from the list, and discusses the possible re-litigation of mid-year exam crimes.

Other stories include Smartmatic’s co-founder’s alleged bribery scheme in Venezuela, Brazil’s Supreme Court placing Bolsonaro under house arrest, Netanyahu’s cabinet attempting to oust his AG, and DHS quietly requiring FEMA applicants not to boycott Israel. Jon closes the episode with a clip of CNN’s Jim Acosta interviewing an AI-generated voice of a Parkland victim and challenges the ethical boundaries of such stunts. From mainstream media spin to Maxwell transcripts, this episode’s theme is clear: truth is only beginning to surface, and some people are getting nervous.
