CannCon and Ghost tackle a wild morning in this packed episode of Badlands Daily, starting with the global Cloudflare outage that briefly knocked out major platforms, including X and Truth Social, right as geopolitical tensions hit a peak. With the internet flickering back to life, the hosts break down the timing behind the disruption, Trump’s upcoming historic meeting with MBS, and why today marks a major shift in global power dynamics. They dig into CNN narratives, Trump’s maneuvering on the Epstein file release, the strategic feud with MTG, and how Democrats and media are unintentionally building consensus for disclosure. Ghost expands on the brewing Saudi–U.S. alliance, the symbolism of the MBS arrival ceremony, and why the F35 sale signals a massive rebalancing away from Israeli dominance. Along the way, they expose weak media spin, revisit Larry Summers and Epstein fallout, and unpack the carefully staged narrative warfare unfolding in real time. A high-energy, high-stakes episode that captures a turning point in global politics.
