Badlands Daily: 4/22/26 - SPLC Indicted, Intel Memo Drops, VA Gerrymandering Aftermath

CannCon and Ashe in America come in hot on Wednesday with a show that delivers. The Virginia gerrymandering amendment passed 51/49, and Ash breaks down the multiple constitutional violations the Virginia Supreme Court allowed to stand, setting up a messy legal fight ahead. A newly declassified intel memo confirms US intelligence secretly warned in early 2020 that foreign adversaries had the capability to access and manipulate election infrastructure, and then withheld that information from the public while China and Iran did exactly what was predicted. The Southern Poverty Law Center is indicted on 11 counts of wire and bank fraud and money laundering after being caught paying the KKK and other extremist groups to manufacture the racial threat they were supposed to be fighting. The New York Times obtains secret Supreme Court shadow docket memos from 2015 and 2016, raising serious questions about who is actually running the show. Plus, Kevin Warsh's Fed nomination hearing, three Democrat congress members resigning in a week, and a principled debate on due process in the Cherfilus-McCormick resignation.
