The Daily Herold: June 2, 2025 – Doge Drama, DEI Retreat, and Deep State Data

On this June 2nd episode of The Daily Herold, Jon Herold delivers a rapid-fire roundup of stories shaping the week, from Musk vs. Bessant over Doge and Soros jabs to the quiet corporate retreat from Pride Month campaigns. He unpacks the growing backlash against DEI programs, critiques media manipulation surrounding Ukraine and Trump’s role as a peacemaker, and digs into Palantir’s alarming centralization of citizen data. Jon also explores a major cover-up in East Palestine, where new FOIA docs expose early government knowledge of cancer risks.

Other highlights include a historic visit from Saudi leadership to the West Bank, a Navy SEAL named to the Joint Chiefs, exercise outperforming drugs in cancer recovery, and Marco Rubio's call to confront global censorship. Jon balances heavy topics with lighthearted commentary and personal anecdotes, wrapping with a reminder to stay alert amid growing efforts to erode free speech through fear-driven narratives.
