Devolution Power Hour Ep. 450: Iran Whiplash, SCOTUS Leak, and the Influence Game
About this episode
Jon Herold and Chris Paul return for the Saturday edition of the Devolution Power Hour with a packed slate. Trump's Truth Social posts dominate from Iran/Strait of Hormuz confusion to a not-so-subtle dig at JD Vance. The guys break down the coordinated world of paid influence campaigns, prompted by Ashley St. Clair's tell-all revelations about ConInc money and messaging ops. Then it gets heavy: the Florida Rico Grande investigation hits a wall after the lead prosecutor is removed from the Brennan case, and the Russiagate crowd is not happy. Add in a freshly leaked SCOTUS memo tying the EPA Clean Power Plan ruling to the days before Scalia's death, Democratic court-packing plans, and Trump's wild True Social posts about what is actually being built under the White House ballroom. All of that plus an honest conversation about fake elections, political theater, and whether any of these stories ever actually get resolved.
