Ep. 479 LEAKED: Trump’s Secret Strategy Briefing Jan 25, 2026

Show notes

NOTE: THIS IS FICTITIOUS. I am trying to "steelman" the Administration's policies, to try to retroactively make sense of various moves they have made, that initially surprised me. I thought it would be more entertaining to present the material in this way; I didn't realize people might think it was an actual leak.

Bob relays leaked audio of a presentation that was apparently given recently to President Trump, outlining various military and economic considerations especially as relates to the China threat. It is essential for understanding the Administration's recent and future moves.
