The Daily Herold: August 11, 2025 – Trump’s D.C. Takeover, National Guard Deployment & Global Power Plays

Jon Herold breaks down a whirlwind Monday as Donald Trump declares “Liberation Day” in Washington, D.C., seizing control of the Metropolitan Police and deploying the National Guard under the Home Rule Act to restore law and order. He examines parallels to past federal interventions, speculates on potential election-related motives, and explores theories from crime reduction to deeper strategic plays. The show covers Kash Patel’s law enforcement stats, the backlash from former FBI officials, and Judge Engelmeyer’s rejection of the DOJ’s bid to unseal Ghislaine Maxwell grand jury transcripts.

Jon also highlights a sweeping federal court hack potentially exposing sensitive case data, the Intel CEO’s controversial ties to Chinese firms, and the brewing intrigue around Trump’s upcoming peace summit with Vladimir Putin in Alaska, with Zelensky possibly sidelined. From cartel threats to reclassifying marijuana and the geopolitics of Ukraine, Herold connects the dots on a day heavy with both domestic crackdowns and international maneuvering.
