The RattlerGator Report: May 12, 2025 – Pope Leo, Trump’s Backchannel War, and the Art of Discernment

In this wide-ranging episode of The RattlerGator Report, J.B. White tackles everything from the new American Pope to the silent war waged by Trump’s team behind the scenes. Broadcasting from rainy Florida on the eve of his nephew’s Army boot camp graduation, J.B. reflects on the importance of cultivating masculine leadership, faith-driven grit, and a return to traditional values.

He shares a revealing video of Pope Leo XIV, recorded during his time as a cardinal, warning against media manipulation and emphasizing the urgent need for discernment in a post-truth world. J.B. sees this as a promising sign that the new pontiff may not be the globalist puppet many feared. He also doubles down on his support for Speaker Johnson, slamming anonymous MAGA infighting as a distraction from Trump’s strategic long game.

J.B. lays out the “Back At Ya” plan, his name for Trump’s multipronged assault on the global financial order, particularly the Eurodollar system, and praises the administration’s savvy use of slow-roll legislative maneuvering, executive strength, and tactical appointments like Judge Jeanine. From the cultural battlefield of Florida college sports to the metaphysical challenge of moral clarity in wartime, J.B. ties it all back to sovereignty, critical thinking, and the belief that America is still the last, best hope.

With humor, fire, and unwavering clarity, this episode is a masterclass in staying grounded amid a world of “competing confusions.”
