The Daily Herold: 6/8/26 - California Fraud Deepens, Pulte Kills FISA & Nuclear Milestone
Description
Jon Herold comes in Monday on a show that keeps circling back to the same unresolved problem: the people who benefit from election fraud are not going to fix election fraud, and nobody on the side that wants to fix it has an answer for how to make that happen anyway. Spencer Pratt is being slowly bumped from the LA mayoral runoff, a former CIA officer's thread explains exactly how it is done and why it leaves no fingerprints, and Jon asks the question that has no clean answer: what do you actually do when you can prove the fraud but the system has no mechanism to correct itself? Trump's appointment of Pulte as acting DNI inadvertently killed the FISA 702 reauthorization, and Jon reads that as entirely intentional. NSPM 11 on AI and national security dropped over the weekend, and buried in it is confirmation of two classified NSPMs numbered 9 and 10 that nobody knew existed. The Antares micro reactor hit first criticality under Trump's 2025 nuclear executive order, becoming the first privately developed non-light water reactor to reach the milestone in 40 years. The Iran-Israel missile exchange is described as behind us for now, DOGE.gov is back up with still no savings counter update, and Jon has strong feelings about the Department of War maintaining an official list of approved religions.
