Badlands Daily: Feb. 26, 2025 - Trump’s Budget Battle, FBI’s Honeypot Ops & The AP White House Ban

CannCon and Ashe in America break down the GOP’s razor-thin budget win, where House Republicans barely passed Trump’s $4.5 trillion tax cut and $2 trillion spending cuts. With Thomas Massie voting no, the question remains...does this actually shrink the deficit, or is it just more D.C. games?

Meanwhile, the FBI is under new scrutiny as Kash Patel’s team reopens investigations into James Comey’s secret honeypot operation, which allegedly placed female undercover agents inside Trump’s 2016 campaign to dig up dirt. The Deep State is panicking, and FBI insiders are reportedly destroying evidence before Patel can clean house.

Also in this episode: Trump’s White House drops the hammer on the Associated Press, banning them from press pool access over their refusal to call it the “Gulf of America.” The media meltdown is glorious. Plus, USAID is officially in free fall as Hungary and Serbia raid NGOs for laundering U.S. taxpayer funds into political ops.
