Devolution Power Hour Ep. 419: Fraud Fatigue and the Illusion of Permission

Devolution Power Hour Ep. 416: The Rug Pull Cycle, False Signals & Narrative Discipline
Badlands MediaJon Herold and Burning Bright break down Episode 416 with a focused examination of the recurring “rug pull” cycle that continues to ripple through the online political and MAGA ecosystem.

Jon and Burning Bright unpack recent claims tied to Venezuela, Mar a Lago rumors, and escalating war narratives, explaining why these stories persist and how they function psychologically within the movement. Rather than framing rug pulls as failures, they emphasize discernment, logic, and pattern recognition, arguing that emotional overinvestment is the real vulnerability being exploited.

Devolution Power Hour Ep. 415 – Byrne’s Confession, Psyop Fallout & the Cost of Discernment
Badlands MediaChris Paul and Burning Bright are joined for much of the episode by Ashe in America as they unpack the fallout from Patrick Byrne’s admission of CIA involvement and what it reframes about years of election-integrity efforts and information warfare. Together, they walk through Byrne’s statements, the timing of his revelations, and how his role intersects with donor influence, past operations, and narrative shaping inside the movement. Ashe adds perspective on community reaction, trust fractures, and the emotional impact of realizing trusted figures may have played double roles. The conversation centers on discernment, how belief is weaponized, how good intentions are exploited, and why detachment is essential to seeing clearly. Rather than leaning into outrage, the hosts emphasize accountability, pattern recognition, and the importance of staying grounded as psychological operations continue to surface. A sober, reflective episode focused on clarity in an increasingly deceptive information environment.

Badlands MediaJon Herold and Burning Bright wade straight into the chaos surrounding Patrick Byrne’s self-admitted CIA ties, breaking down how his shifting stories, strategic omissions, and sudden confessions reframe years of election-integrity efforts, whistleblower claims, and J6-related operations.

From there, Jon and BB tie Byrne’s revelation into broader information-war dynamics, including planted narratives, controlled opposition, and demoralization tactics aimed at fracturing the movement. The hosts also field live-chat reactions, discuss the psychology of belief in high-stakes information environments, and highlight the importance of discernment as 2025’s narrative battles accelerate.

Devolution Power Hour Ep. 413 – The J6 Narrative Cracks, Media Meltdowns, and the Intel Nobody Trusts
Badlands MediaJon Herold and Chris Paul tear into the chaotic rollout of the alleged January 6 pipe-bomber arrest, dissecting the affidavit, the timeline, the surveillance gaps, and the suspiciously coordinated media narratives surrounding the case. They highlight inconsistencies between the government’s claims and the evidence shown, question why key footage and details surfaced only after years of silence, and explore how the story is being shaped to protect institutional credibility rather than reveal truth. From there, Jon and Chris examine the broader information-war landscape, including the media’s panicked response to Trump’s rising momentum, the collapse of trusted narratives, and a public that increasingly refuses to buy what legacy institutions are selling. With sharp analysis, sarcasm, and a few well-placed rants, the hosts map out how propaganda, selective transparency, and political desperation are converging as the system loses control of the story.
